Obama Can't Take Michelle to Arab Countries Because He's a Muslim?

Knowing that his birth father was a Muslim and his early schooling was in a Muslim country, this makes a lot of sense.

Article:
Sheppard Smith, Fox News.

“If you check President Obama’s last trip over-seas, his wife left just
after their visit to France. She has yet to accompany him to any Arab
country. Think about it. Why is Michelle returning to the states when
‘official’ trips to foreign countries generally include the First Lady.”

Here’s one thought on the matter.

While in a Blockbuster renting videos I came across a video called “Obama”.
There were two men standing next to me and we talked about President Obama.
These guys were Arabs, so I asked them why they thought Michele Obama headed
home following the President’s recent visit to France instead of traveling
on to Saudi Arabia and Turkey with her husband. They told me she could not
go to Saudi Arabia, Turkey or Iraq . I said “Why not,(?) Laura Bush went to
Saudi Arabia, Turkey and Dubai .” They said that Obama is a Muslim and
therefore he is not allowed to bring his wife into countries that adhere to
Sharia Law. Two points of interest here: 1) I thought it interesting that
two American Arabs at Blockbuster believe that our President is a Muslim, 2)
who follows a strict Islamic creed. They also said that’s the reason he
bowed to the King of Saudi Arabia. It was a signal to the Muslim world,
acknowledging his religion.

For further consideration, here is a response from Dr. Jim Murk, a Middle
Eastern Scholar and expert on Islam. This is his explanation of what the
Arab American’s were saying.

“An orthodox Muslim man would never take his wife on a politically oriented
trip to any nation which practices Sharia law, particularly Saudi Arabia
where the Wahhabi sect is dominant. This is true and it is why Obama left
Michelle in Europe. She will stay home when he visits Arab countries. He
knows Muslim protocol; this includes, bowing to the Saudi King. Obama is
regarded as a Muslim in the Arab world, because he was born to a Muslim
father; he acknowledged his Muslim faith with George Stephanopoulus. Note
that he downplays his involvement with Christianity, by not publicly joining
a Christian church in D.C. and occasionally attending the chapel for
services at Camp David. He also played down the fact that America is a
Christian country and said, unbelievably, that it was one of the largest
Muslim nations in the world, which is nonsense. He has publicly taken the
side of the Palestinians in the conflict with Israel and he ignored the
National Day of Prayer, something no other President has ever done. He is
bad news! He conceals his true faith to the detriment of the American
people.” — Jim Murk, Doctor of Philosophy in Middle Eastern Culture &
Religion.

ACTIONS speak louder than words.

Very interesting way of looking at the actions of Obama.
