"Not necessarily"
Reader comment on item: Emerson interviewed on Fox News about the growing anti U.S. sentiment in the Middle East

Obama is "not necessarily" a Muslim? What is Emerson thinking? Obama's not a Muslim, period. Emerson then goes I do say "I don't believe that." This kind of spongy statement feeds the lunatic right-wing Obama-hating fringe that isn't such a fringe anymore. I expect better from Emerson. Obama has given Israel a huge amount of aid--both military and economic. He has been crystal clear in his support for Israel, and to suggest otherwise says more about Emerson than Obama. And I write this as someone who has been (and remains) plenty supportive of Emerson's efforts in the last few years.
