One More Time With Muslim Smear
The Muslim boogie man smear didn't work against Barack Obama during the presidential campaign. That isn't going to stop Michael Goldfarb of The Weekly Standard from telling people to be very afraid of Obama.
It seems there is some legitimate confusion on just what languages Obama speaks, and as far as Arabic, the only real hint has came from Nick Kristof, who heard Obama recite the Muslim call to prayer in Arabic and with a "first-rate accent" back in 2007. With even the White House now smearing Obama as a Muslim, one wonders if the president hasn't been concealing some greater fluency with the language of the Koran.
Goldfarb didn't have a problem with the previous President barely being able to speak English. Why do journalism when conspiracy theories are so much more fun. Conservatives just can't help themselves from expressing their xenophobia.
