I do believe our president is either muslim leaning or muslim sympathizer and do not believe he is good for our country, on the other hand, Mr Romney would be a great president for the Mitt Romneys and the Donald Trumps of the world, I do not believe he has the best interest of the work-a-day americans and the middle class americans who ever they may be in his heart... I believe John Mccain would have been a safer candidate for the most of us... Losing jobs to other countries hurts us all but I don't believe losing jobs to other countries hurts us any more than the middle class losing income to the likes of the Mitt Romneys of the country, Every millionaire we create to add to the bunch we already have means the rest of us are losing ground, I don't think our treasury prints money for the sole purpose of growing our base of rich folks so that money has to come from the rest of us and the result is a shrinking middle class.
It is a Urban Legand, it was NEVER THERE. Its is simply just not true. A crazy rumor. The bill was written by congressional committee members of congress. The legislators never included that word in an version of the bill. There was never any special provisions for muslims in any form of the bill. The word was not removed from the bill because it was never in there to start with. Now you cite that lawmakers had a dificult time removing the word from the bill. So we do not have the names of these so called legislators, who put the word in there or even a copy of the Federal Register with that word in a version of the bill.

Your second sentance wording "Back when this was rumored to be in the healthcare bill" explains a lot. This is a rumor....a false rumor. There is a lot of stuff on the internet and you have to look at the source.

Finnally we have a rumor from from the internet that is just not supported by facts. If there were any truth to this rumor why would it not be covered by the national news...not the bias libral medida but Fox news. Why have ultra conservative polititians like Rush or Santorum or Paul commented on this. Simply because it never happened and they would not risk commenting on something that never happened.

With all of the scrutiny this bill and all of the legislators that worked on this bill has had no one has ever brought this up or questioned it.
This would simply be a major story in the media if it were true.
