TOUR2008 Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 Madonna tells fans in concert to support the ‘black Muslim in the White House’ Was pop star making a tongue-in-cheek joke to fans ... or does she really think Obama is Muslim? Comments (9) By Kristen A. Lee / NEW YORK DAILY NEWS Tuesday, September 25, 2012, 1:19 PM Madonna supports President Obama, but does she know he’s a Christian? Madonna confused some Washington, D.C. fans by demanding that they support the "black Muslim in the White House" as she gave a profanity-riddled political endorsement of President Obama Monday night. It wasn't clear in a YouTube video of her speech whether Madonna's description of Obama was meant to be tongue-in-cheek or if she is one of many Americans who doesn't know the president is Christian. The singer began the political detour during her MDNA concert stop in the nation's capital by remembering Abraham Lincoln and Martin Luther King Jr. as leaders who, she said, "fought for our freedom." "And now it is so amazing and incredible to think that we have an African-American in the White House," she said, adding: "Y'all better vote for f--king Obama, OK? For better or for worse, all right?" "We have a black Muslim in the White House!" she proclaimed. "Now that is some s--t. That is amazing s--h. It means there is hope in this country. And Obama is fighting for gay rights, so support the man, go--ammit." Before launching into the political rant, Madonna did warn the crowd that she might get some of her facts wrong. "I'm a little dizzy," she said. The pop icon followed up that somewhat-confusing endorsement with a suggestive striptease later in the show, The Hill reported. Taking off her shirt, Madonna pulled down her pants to reveal the name "OBAMA" written in all capital letters across her lower back. "When Obama is in the White House for a second term I'll take it all off," she said, before launching into a sultry version of her 1984 hit "Like a Virgin." Madonna also used body art to show her support for the president at a concert at Yankee Stadium earlier this month.

Guest FrozenEyes Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 I can't believe they have to question whether this is tongue in cheek! To muse, some redneck/conspiracy theorist americans, being a muslim = terrorist, therefore Obama is a terrorist sent to destroy the country. It's crazy bullshit and that's what she's making fun of. And generally these same people are racist as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last time I went to visit him we went for some KFC (which sounds like a redneck thing to do) and he goes, "Look at this. Not one American working in here. I am telling you they are taking over and when word comes down for them to attack we are doomed." Im like, dad they are Indian. He is like I dont care. They are Al-Qaeda. Same thing. He lives in Edison NJ which has a large Indian population and he thinks they are all Al-Qaeda. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least for my sake he is only a Muslim bigot and not a raving homophobe as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skin Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 Madonna should just release a statement saying, "I was poking fun at the crazy people that insist Obama is a Muslim, and even if he was why would it be a big deal?"

Does your father also get all of his information off the internet and therefore assumes it must all be true? No, no -- don't tell me -- not off the internet, but from the RADIO. That's where you'll get the TRUTH. The television networks are all too liberal (i.e., communist) -- including "conservative" Fox News!

TOUR2008 Posted September 26, 2012 Author Share Posted September 26, 2012 Madonna: I was being ironic on stage. Yes I know Obama is not a Muslim (though I know that plenty of people in this country think he is.) And what if he were? The point I was making is that a good man is a good man no matter who he prays to.
