Snopes.com is a liberal agenda machine.

Perhaps you want to discover the origin of an urban legend or verify that the photo of a 6 headed cow someone emailed you isn't a doctored photo. Maybe you want to know if Monster energy drink's logo is really satanic. Snopes.com is okay for verifying unimportant stuff like that, but don't count on them being "fair and balanced" when it comes to anything political or religious.--Although Snopes does not have any political philosophy explicitly stated on the website, snopes' selectivity and analysis of political emails stinks with partisanship. Religious emails don't fare any better and typically get a liberal hatchet job. In a nutshell, although snopes has to reluctantly admit that most of the conservative political and religious emails are "true" as far as snopes can determine, there is always a footnote or lengthy oratory explaining why everything from crime statistics to reports from Iraq must be viewed and understood through snopes' personal view.----"Lord of the Ring"On this topic snopes put "False", and it is still "false"right this second.http://www.snopes.com...In snopes' dialogue on the issue they state, "One might also consider the incongruity that a politician who has long been dealing with (and denying) rumors that he is a Muslim would openly wear a symbol demonstrating those rumors to be true."So they are using semantics to "prove" it is not a Shahada ring and not actual EVIDENCE in this quote.He has not hidden his Muslim roots otherwise though. He has not hidden that he went to school in Indonesia(the largest of all Muslim countries) and took Islamic classes as a child. He has not hidden "hearing the call of the Azan at the break of dawn" as a kid. He has not hidden his father's Muslim background. He was known as Barry Soerto according to his classmates in college, and changed his name to a Muslim name, "Barack Hussein Obama" as a well established adult around 1980. So...why would he hide THIS or care? He didn't and he doesn't.http://www.newsweek.com...Snopes tried to claim it was probably just arbitrary markings, but keep in mind, he's been wearing this same ring for over 30 years. This isn't some meaningless, arbitrary ring. Would you wear a meaningless ring for 30+ years?Another telling clue is that the Shahada ring is worn on the left hand. Obama wears and wore his on the left hand. By Western thought, he adorned it as a wedding ring by Western school of thought, but he was not married when he was wearing it in pictures from his younger years. This is because he was using Eastern thought, not Western thought.http://www.thesunniway.com...*And the most telling of evidence to their false account was my meeting Barack Obama at a job related event in Cushing, Oklahoma. I was raised in Islam, so I was well aware of what the ring was. I didn't think anything really about it, nor did I care. But when 2 white people began arguing about the ring and snopes' claim, I was taken aback. I thought about it a moment, and because I did not know what snopes was, I was quick to tell them it was probably some liberal site. Ironically, I was right in my naivity.----Picture of bismillah-http://www.wallpapersforu.com...----https://en.m.wikipedia.org...https://en.m.wikipedia.org...http://m.sj-r.com...http://www.nowtheendbegins.com...http://m.aliexpress.com...http://www.aliexpress.com...
