Chain Email

The following is from an email I keep getting.  Bracketed text is added by me.

This is what Obama has done to us. All Americans should read this short article. It is sad and scary that our government (our senators and congressman) have allowed this to happen.

We elected them so it is partly our fault . They are giving away our country. Also, not a well known fact, but John Kerry's daughter is married to a man from Iran and she is now a muslim. The Iranian that was Kerry's counterpart during the Iranian nuclear talks earlier this year, is the father of the best man at her wedding.

Never has there been, in our government, so many individuals who belong to a religion that you either join or you will be killed? When you read this you will understand why Obama refuses to say the words "radical Islam."

Did you know that we now have a Muslim government?

John Brennan, current head of the CIA converted to Islam while stationed in Saudi Arabia. [Snopes says unconfirmed.  Which is sort of like pleading the 5th.]

Obama's top advisor, Valerie Jarrett, is a Muslim who was born in Iran where her parents still live. [She was born in Iran, and moved to the US, long before the Islamic Revolution.  Regardless of her religious beliefs, she IS a commie.]

Hillary Clinton's top advisor, Huma Abedin is a Muslim, whose mother and brother are involved in the now outlawed Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt. [Press response to the question of her relatives activities affecting her security clearances was sadly typical.]

Assistant Secretary for Policy Development for Homeland Security, Arif Aikhan, is a Muslim.

[FORMER] Homeland Security Advisor, Mohammed Elibiary, is a Muslim. [Not directly confirmed, but...]

Obama advisor and founder of the Muslim Public Affairs Council, Salam al-Marayati, is a Muslim. [Gee, you think?]

Obama's Sharia Czar, Imam Mohamed Magid, of the Islamic Society of North America is a Muslim. [Why would you think that an Imam would be a Muslim?]

Advisory Council on Faith-Based Neighborhood Partnerships, Eboo Patel, is a Muslim. [His own book.]

It's questionable if Obama ever officially took the oath of office when he was sworn in. He didn't repeat the oath properly to defend our nation and our Constitution. [I'm going to call this a red herring, especially since I don't think a single politician actually takes their oaths seriously.]

Later the Democrats claimed he was given the oath again in private?

CIA director John Brennan took his oath on a copy of the Constitution, not a Bible. [As an atheist I'd do the same, actually]

Congressman, Keith Ellison took his oath on a copy of the Qur'an. [Dur!  He's openly Muslim!]

Congresswoman Michele Bachman was vilified and almost tarred and feathered by Democrats when she voiced her concern about Muslims taking over our government.

Considering all these appointments, it would explain why Obama and his minions are systematically destroying our nation, supporting radical Muslim groups worldwide, opening our southern border, and turning a blind eye to the genocide being perpetrated on Christians all over Africa and the Middle East.

The more damage Obama does, the more arrogant he becomes!

Our nation and our government has been infiltrated by people who want to destroy us. It can only get worse!

(If you fail to pass this one on, there's something wrong ... somewhere!)

I've gotten this list in my in-box about ten times now.  I'd done nothing to confirm or deny any of it until today and I added some links to the quoted text.  Some (many?) of those links are kind of on the fringe, but since the mainstream press won't do any investigation on Democrats, the fringe is all that's left.

If it's all true, and that would be unusual for a chain letter, it's kinda scary.

An article and video essentially saying the same thing as the chain letter.

This whole meme kind of falls into the "if there's nothing to cover up, why are they working so hard to cover things up (or appear to be)?"

It's along the same line as the birther meme.  I stopped caring about where Obama was born a long time ago, the thing I care about now is the millions of dollars he spent preventing the release of any of his records from anywhere he says he's been.  You just don't spend millions of dollars concealing nothing, and if you DO, it makes it SEEM like there's something worth hiding.
