Why do Republicans continue to call Obama a Muslim?

Why is it that Republicans continue to call Obama a Muslim, even though he is a Christian? What do they use as their basis for this? Obama has never been a Muslim, yet Republicans (not the candidates, but people who vote Republican) continue to call Obama a Muslim. Similarly, they feel the need to use Obama's middle name, "Hussein", in an attempt to somehow tie him to A) Islam, B) Saddam, C) terrorism/radicals, or D) all of the above.

Update:

Valid point, Will D. I was generalizing in my statement, and should have said "some Republicans". I didn't mean to imply that all Republicans do this or believe this.

  • Not all of us do that. I know he is not Muslim but the ones calling attention to that are trying to get the not so smart voters to vote because of that. Both parties have uneducated voters who sway their votes with stupid nonsense like that or who their favorite celebrity votes for (people like that should have their voting privelages taken away as they are retarded)

  • its a common tactic used by the republican party. The republicans have become a party of hate and fear. Good republicans like Lincoln or Reagan are long gone.....

  • Because for months their campaign has been running on fumes. They have nothing to recommend themselves and they realize the only way they can argue for their candidate is to spread lies about Obama.

  • They are throwing darts, desperately attempting to make him look bad. It's ok, none of that matters anymore, you'll see in the next day.

  • What else can you do win your party's candidate doesn't have the foggiest idea to base a platform on ?

    It will backfire bigtime tomorrow !

  • They are idiots. Republicans don't realize that they represent big oil, insurance, banks, defense contractors and mad companies that want to go to war to make a profit off tax payer's money. These companies need cattle to fight for them. So there you have it, most republicans don't realize that they are cattle.

  • I agree. There are just trying to stir things up to try to sway voters. For us the people that know the truth just sit back and laugh at their anticks!

  • I don't really care if he's Muslim or Jewish or Christian or Buddhist, all I care is if he's a natural born citizen of the United States. If there is even a small chance he isn't, they should demand that he show us his birth certificate now!

  • Because they have gotten used to duping the public into believing all kinds of things that arent true, like linkng 9-11 to Iraq.

  • Because they are hateful and prejudice against Muslims. Besides, if they say that they don't like him because he is black, they will be called racists. Being against Muslims is the new open form of racism.
