Bill Ardolino has a report from Iraq filed at The Examiner:
Fallujah, Iraq - Editor’s note: Blogger Bill Ardolino is embedded with a U.S. Marine unit in Iraq. He’s there to find out the truth about the U.S. war effort on the ground in Iraq. Unlike the vast majority of mainstream media journalists who stay within the Green Zone in Baghdad, Ardolino is on patrol in the streets wherever his embedded Marine unit goes. This is his third exclusive dispatch for The Examiner.
Domestically, in what now seems like a 5 or 6 front war between would be Democrat Presidential contenders, things are heating up as charges and denials start flowing over the suggestion that Barack Hussein Obama attended a madrassah in his youth.
What's that they say about everything you need to know you learn in kindergarten? The intra-party beat downs may have begun for the Democrats.
Insight, a magazine owned by the Washington Times, cited unnamed sources in saying that young Barack attended a madrassah, or Muslim religious school, in Indonesia. In his 1995 autobiography, Obama said his Indonesian stepfather had sent him to a "predominantly Muslim school" in Jakarta, after two years in a Catholic school -- but Insight goes further in saying it was a madrassah and that Obama was raised as a Muslim.
Washington Times??? The Moonies and their newspaper have no credibility.

Dan sez: What's that they say about everything you need to know you learn in kindergarten?
Judging by the low quality of your writing, that certainly applies to you. Are we supposed to be shocked that the Washington Times, a right-wing moonie rag, is attempting to stoke fears about Obama's religious beliefs?
Feh.

LOL, hey Jake, nice knee jerk response from a spineless liberal who will vote for whomever the liberalmedia pushes on them.
Do you actually BELIEVE this Muslim has a chance? Geez, if nothing else the criminal Clinton mob will have him put away if he begins to actually gain traction.

I'd take a Muslim over a Mormon any day. Moonies=Mormons=Cult.

I would believe everything written in a a publication owned by a Korean who maintains the He is the Messiah.
Especially when that publicaction discloses the secret religious affiliations of politicians who don't adhere to the right wing worshipping of said Korean Messiah.
In Moon We Trust

Pushing more wingnut bullshit that's a proven lie, eh?
I'm sure we can count on you not to "correct" yourself on this, either...

Dave, trademarked and copyrighted, (identity crisis or just paranoid?)
What exactly IS the lie in this post?

Wow, the Washington Moonie Times printing lies. Go figure. http://www.cnn.com/2007/POLITICS/01/22/obama.madrassa/index.html You sheep should go back to Vince Foster - that one was funnier.
