You just knew this story would eventually lead to some radical or nutjob…
Obama bowed to Tampa’s mayor this week.

Well it didn’t take long to peg this one. In 2008 Mayor Iorio gave CAIR a day named in their honor.
Zimbio reported:
“By virtue of the authority vested in me as mayor of the city of Tampa, I do hereby proclaim November 15, 2008, as ‘Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) Day’ in the city of Tampa, Florida.”
Hat Tip Brian B.
CAIR (Council on American-Islamic Relations) is a civil rights group partially funded by the Saudi Wahhabi establishment and has numerous ties to extremist Islamic organizations.
Maybe that’s why Obama bowed?

By the way, CAIR looks even worse after the weekend. World Net Daily reports that CAIR has consistently failed to disclose information necessary to maintain its tax-exempt status with the IRS:

No self-conscious awareness at all. That’s a critical component in any adult’s psychological makeup and it’s totally lacking in precedent won. Even if he thinks it’s correct to bow to a mayor (pause for peals of laughter) the rest of the country thinks it’s stupid. In order to not look stupid in our eyes, he should belay the bowing. Does he bow to the dog, too?

I think he’s trying to look down her blouse.

Funny you should ask. Yes. The dog was a gift from the Saudis, so thus bowing is appropriate.
I have to think George Washington is spinning in his grave over this. He froze his ass off for this?

http://www.abcactionnews.com/news/local/story/Mayor-Iorio-declines-to-honor-Muslim-group/zcYmy-lCqkOXsLaa4EuNqg.cspx
TAMPA, Fla. (AP) — Tampa’s mayor has decided not to honor a controversial Muslim civil rights group this year.
Mayor Pam Iorio said Thursday she made the decision after hearing from people who complained that the Council on American-Islamic Relations has ties to terrorist groups.
The abc article is from June and the photo is new. So did the mayor since change her mind? Did CAIR day in Tampa happen or not?

EVERY REPUBLICAN NEEDS TO CONTACT THE RNC AND TELL THEM THAT YOU WILL NOT CONTRIBUTE IF THEY HOLD THEIR 2012 CONVENTION IN TAMPA THE HOME OF THIS NITWIT AND CHARLIE CRIST. THE OTHER CHOICES MENTIONED TODAY ARE SALT LAKE CITY (GREAT CHOICE FOR ROMNEY) AND PHOENIX. I AM OUT THERE TODAY. WHAT A GREAT PLACE. I SAW ONE BUMPER STICKER THAT SAID ‘NOPE’ AND ANOTHER THAT SAID ‘OBAMA SUCKS.’

“The abc article is from June and the photo is new. So did the mayor since change her mind? Did CAIR day in Tampa happen or not?”
—————————-
From reading the two articles — yours from June 2009 and the one stating she declared NOV 15, 2008 “CAIR Day” — my guess is that she ended the 4-year practice of “CAIR Day” after people complained about it in 2009. Prior to that, though, it seems it was a regular practice for 4 years.
I’m also guessing though that she is still sympathetic to Muslims (if not a Muslim herself?) and that’s why Obama bowed to show his subservience to her.
Someone needs to look into her a little more and find out if she has some deeper ties to some Muslim groups or some Saudi groups or something. She must hold some kind of position of influence within the American Muslim community for Obama to bow to her like that.

There’s a simple enough explanation. She looks foreign (as in, not a W.A.S.P.), and Obama just reflexively bowed.

Her dominant posture.
His submissive bow.
Looks like he’s all set for a night of

Who Is CAIR?
[Zhudi Jasser, himself a Muslim, and president of the Islamic Forum for Democracy, makes a critical distinction between Islam and Islamism. Islam is, of course, a faith which has an estimated worldwide following of over 1 billion people. Islamism, however, according to Jasser, is “a coercive governmental and political construct that seeks to impose shar’ia (Islamic jurisprudence) upon society.”
In 2007, in the publication Family Security Matters, Jasser wrote that CAIR uses “the protection of religion when the facts are not on their side. They use the discourse of politics when they want to push forth their Islamist agenda with the presumption of speaking for all Muslims. They will delve into the political only on their own terms in both foreign and domestic policy but when they are on the receiving end of political criticism they run for cover under the guise of victimization."
A dispassionate look at CAIR’s public posture
shows that Mr. Jasser’s observations ring true.]
Accommodation as an Islamist Political Instrument
[Islamist organizations, like CAIR who never met a demand from rigid Muslims they didn’t like, will continue to demand ‘logistical requirements of faith’ all the while intimidating non-Muslims into allowing them to control public spaces and times. Whether cabbies in Minnesota, children at San Diego schools, or women at Michigan fitness clubs, the Islamist agenda is transparent. It’s all about accommodation with no sense of moderation. Necessary for the validity of these demands of accommodation is a deeply rigid uncompromising interpretation of Islam—salafism and Wahhabism. Flexibility and moderation would make these demands generally disappear.]
Obama Administration Stacking the Deck with Islamists
[Abdul-Malik also makes no bones about discussing how the election of President Obama is a step forward in the project of Islamization and the long term goal of Islamist domination which falls right in lock-step with that of the Muslim Brotherhood as revealed in their manifesto.]

Would very much like to attend this protest. If you all know any New Yorkers, pass this on. There is so many gaps in obama’s life that are unaccounted for. This makes sense and I don’t think Rev Manning would make these statements without have the evidence to back up. Been so disappointed before in all these demands to produce his BC and college transcripts

Hey, Jay Nose Picker. How many people did you bow to today? How many people did you see bow to others?
February 2nd, 2010 | 12:44 am | #22
When any non-mulim person may see this as a sign of respect the Islam do not; but as submission to the Islamic religion. And the persmission to establish a dhemmi.
obama (as Senator in Illinois) campaign in Kenyan for Odinga in the elections in 2006; that if Odinga won, he would help establish Sharia law in the country. obama raised over 1 million dollars for Odinga. When Odinga didn’t win, he went into the villages and slaughtered over 1,000 people, including Christians and burned their churces.
There is plenty of public and media access to this if you want proof and facts; and even a video showing obama campaigning there (at the tax payers expense). It is not conservative propaganda.
And obam never once denounced Odinga’s actions.
