In my summary I left out a detail, he had to affirm his (and the WH’s) allegiance to Allah first for proper guidance.
You see, this is all very logical.
He actually *touched *the Lincoln Bible with the hand he uses to wipe his ass.
Hmm?
Typically, is it the right hand that is raised (or placed over the heart) to take an oath?
Is Obama left handed?
Yes.
Yes.
If he uses his right, over too quickly.
Oath of office of the president of the United States - Wikipedia Seven presidents have retaken the oath.Pierce affirmed instead of swearing. In FDRs 3rd swearing in the clerk dropped the bible.
Roberts made the error.
I suspect ElvisL1ves is referring to the fact that to Muslims, the left hand is unclean and used for personal hygiene.
Nitpick: This feeling is rooted in culture, not specifically in religion, and is not primarily a Muslim characteristic. For instance, Hindus and other non-Muslims in India and elsewhere in Asia and Africa generally have the same prejudice against using the left hand in eating, etc.
Indeed. I personally always associated this characteristic with Hindus, not Muslims, though many cultures throughout history have ascribed uncleanliness to the left hand due to it being the one that you wipe your ass with (so you can keep your right hand clean for food and such)
[never mind]
Remember, it was implied Obama was possibly Muslim. I was addressing that.
One of your best posts ever.
Subtle Simon & Garfunkel reference, given the posts preceding?

A Communist 'cause I’m left handed,
That’s the hand you use…well, never mind.
You know what the sincerest form of flattery is, don’t you?
your mom? Burn!
Are you whooshing us here or did you leave something out? The man’s never been Muslim.
Cash.
I was going to say exactly this… I thought that the local AM station would preempt Limbaugh for the inauguration… and he said more or less the exact thing that ** Stephe96** said. :dubious:
Actually, wouldn’t it be the other way around? Unlike Inigo and the Dread Pirate Roberts, Obama IS left-handed.
Or is this that just what he WANTS us to think? Dun-dun-DUN!
