Everytime President Obama is accused of being Muslim, I wish he would respond by saying...

So what? Being called Muslim is not a insult, anymore than it is being called a Christian, Hindi, Buddhist, or Jew.

Fanatical Christianity, Hinduism, and Buddhism are just as dangerous of Fundamentalist Islam.

1. True. Calling someone a name from your list reflects more on the caller

than on the one named.

2. I like it better his way -- making fun of them.

Like this one, from last month's Gridiron Club dinner:

While taking shots at his political opponents, Obama poked fun at Wisconsin’s Republican governor, Scott Walker, who is considering a presidential run. In February, Walker said he does not know whether Obama is a Christian. The president brought up the exchange in his speech.

“The other week he said he didn’t know whether or not I was a Christian. And I was taken aback,” Obama said of Walker. “But fortunately my faith teaches us forgiveness. So, Governor Walker, as-salamu alaykum.”

As-salamu alaykum is an Arabic greeting meaning “peace be upon you” regularly exchanged during Muslim sermons.

(from this story about the dinner)

What you write is true but I think the mockery is more effective.
