:::::I know LOTS of Americans who use the pronounciation in question. And Brits, too. Look at it this way: if the link between the language of the Koran and the billion or so Muslims scattered across the globe means that there is such a thing as "Muslim pronounciation," does that mean that the world's Christians--Swedes, Phillipinos, Americans, Candians, Irish, Brazilians, French, Germans, all share "Christian pronounciations" that can be traced back to Hebrew, Aramaic and ancient Greek?

::::::Quite correct, AliceBG. A Christian from South India doesn't sounds like a Christian from Scotland and a Muslim from Scotland doesn't sound like a Muslim from South India. Putting stuff like this "Pokiston" issue on CP's front page gives the impression that Aschafly and his colleagues have no serious issues with which to attack Obama and are forced to resort to personal trivia of the silliest kind. I really don't understand why Aschafly & friends don't focus on the politics. This is very peculiar to people outside the USA. [[User:WaZi|WaZi]] 14:34, 28 September 2008 (EDT)

:::::AliceBG - so you know "a lot" of Americans who share this funny way of talking? What is it that they all have in common? They've all most likely been tainted by un-American foreign ways. When you votge for your President do you want somebody whose values are 100% American, or do you want to vote for a Suede, Philipino, Indonesian...  When you vote, do you want somebody who is unadulterated with a purity of essence like Sarah Palin, or would you prefer somebody (who for want of a better word) is a mongrel. ASchlafly is absolutely right - you can tell a great deal about a man's values by the way he speaks. The question is, are Obama's "Hip-Hop" values compatible with our conservative values? I think that is the most serious question of all! --[[User:Jimmygoddard|Jimmygoddard]] 14:42, 28 September 2008 (EDT)
