Obama keeps making that remark. What fabric is he talking about?
Mr. Obama says this frequently – “Muslims built the very fabric of our nation.” He made the remark again just the other day.
That may well be true, but in the future, not the past or the present. Obviously he is thinking ahead.
Many of us share the hope and the promise when all this animosity will end and in the words of Micah:
“Each of us will sit under our vine and fig tree, and none shall make us afraid.”
Amen to that, but so far it’s been the Christians and the Jews who have made America exceptional and great. That’s why we’re called a Judeo/Christian nation. So a good word from the President as to that would be most welcome. The Christian contribution is well-documented in all the books.
The Jewish contribution to our culture and to Western Civilization could also use a kindly reminder. Jews make up 0.2 percent of the world’s population; Muslims 23 percent. But we are still waiting for the first Muslim Einstein, today’s Jonas Salk or the next George and Ira Gershwin.
Jews lit up Broadway.
Names like Rodgers and Hart and Hammerstein and Neil Simon and Leonard Bernstein and George S. Kaufman tell only part of the story.
We await our Muslim neighbors to chip in.
Jews account for nearly 30 percent of all Nobel Prizes. They’ve won 193, largely in the sciences.
Muslims have won 7 Nobel Prizes. Perhaps more time in the lab and less time on anti-Jewish harassment like BDS would make up the slack.
We await the next Muslim Rickover. Hyman (Chaim) Rickover is recognized as “The Father of the Nuclear Navy.”

I can't think of one good thing that Muslims have contributed to society. What stands out to me (other than terrorism of course) is their treatment of women. Women have no rights without being instructed or being accompanied by a male. Even a woman's 13 year old male son can make decisions for her.
The fabric he refers to is the sheep's clothing on the wolf....
or the rug thats being pulled out from under America!
Excellent points.
Maybe he thought that he was in some other nation.
Since both Obama and Valerie Jarrett are Muslim, I think that is who he must be referring to. For the last seven years they been rebuilding this nation to its current greatness! Remember before that it was Obama and the government that build all of our small business. We should be thankful. Just think where we would be without him!
yeah so all of the Bernters are out there saying Socialism is great. this is really become a great nation
Rednecks built this country. and they'll fix it someday too ... just watch...
Muzzies on the chain gang can help build the Mexico fence, that would actually be one good contribution to society they could make.
Shores of Tripoli ring a bell? Of course they are in our fabric. They tried to hold our ships back in the day for ransom, until we got fed up and beat their asses back to Tripoli.
Hogwash!
