    Somewhere on this board someone asked how President Obama avoided service in Viet Nam.

    He was born in 1961,

    The war ended in 1975.

    U.S. involvement in the war ended before that.

    Do the math.

    Other questions asked were equally stupid, but I'm not going to bother with them.

    :smile: -- Run that by me again. On a serious note, I have found some people enjoy asking dumb questions to see if someone will take the bait. I recommend just ignoring the question or tell the person to research their own question since they have a PC.

    Well said!

    In your opinion...... does President Obama's half-brother at the minimum deserve credit for COURAGE?



    endtimeheadlines.org/temple-mount/obamas-brother-in-support-of-third-temple-built-in-jerusalem/

    ...... I mean....... isn't it at the minimum courageous for a MUSLIM to express general support for the rebuilding of the Jerusalem Third Temple as predicted in Ezekiel chapters 40 to 48?

    Oh, I'll bet that it did. Some of the wingnuts here really are this dumb.

    And right wing media knows it. "American Thinker" once assured its audience that FDR was a conservative, and the Vichy France was a US ally.

    Well.................. I have a rather strong suspicion that we are about to go into an era with something of a "Cyrus/Persia" zeitgeist to it......... meaning........ an increase in respect for religion and philosophy as near death experiences and education cause religion to become much more peaceful and accepting of the religious views and philosophy of others.

    Even many dogmatic atheists are becoming agnostics after researching NDE accounts.

    President Obama's brother within a century or two....... could be regarded as one of the 128 most influential people in this process?!

    At this time we are well aware of what Islamic extremists are doing so it is nice to see that some Muslims are working toward peace from another angle.

    Is Malik Obama one of the worlds' most courageous Muslims?



    In my opinion.....YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!

    Uh, okay...good luck with that. I wouldn't count on too many atheists joining your little party though.

    Because he was in Kenya at the time.

    I hope this has satiated your desire for a national idiotic question and answer day.
    Seriously, this little mathamatetical epiphany was your major accomplishment for today? Were doomed, doomed I tell ya.

    Somewhere on this board someone tried to generalize political opposition as dumb by making a whole thread based on an unsubstantiated post by an unknown poster in an unknown place on the board.

    Neck and neck in the stupidity derby IMO.

    Well, someone asked a dumb question. Nothing new there.

    But Obama is still a criminal, a pathological liar and a traitor to the country. I'd prefer he were a draft dodger instead of president.

    Somewhere on this board someone asked how President Obama avoided service in Viet Nam. No one asked? Really?

    He was born in 1961. He wasn't? When WAS he born, then? By the way, subtract 1961 from 1975 and you find that President Obama was 14 when the war ended.

    The war ended in 1975. Really? When DID it end, or is it still going on?

    U.S. involvement in the war ended before that. I was in the U.S. Army from 68 to 89. I'm sure I would have noticed.

    In what way is this on topic?
