Phyllis Schlafly is going senile.

That's the only real explanation I have for this stupid remark.

Phyllis Schlafly: Obama Is 'Sweet On The Muslims'

Submitted by Brian Tashman on Monday, 1/26/2015 12:05 pm

Eagle Forum founder Phyllis Schlafly, who once worried that Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel might be a secret Muslim, told far-right talk show host Stan Solomon earlier this month that President Obama is “sweet on the Muslims.” While speaking with Solomon about Obama’s absence from a demonstration of world leaders in Paris following the Charlie Hebdo attack, Schlafly said Obama “does not want to admit there is Muslim terrorism, he pretends that it isn’t” and is “unwilling anytime to say there is Muslim terrorism.” Schlafly told Solomon that extremists will only learn to “respect” the U.S. if the country makes its military “the biggest and strongest” in the world.

But her mind has been gone since the 70's IMO.
I wonder if her column is ghostwritten.

she wanted.

These drastically stupid people really really hate Muslims, but to be fair they hate Jewish people as well, they just have to pretend to like them while they wait for some idiotic return of their pal Jesus...

The advantage of being a blithering idiot disconnected from reality is that if senility approaches you are the same before and after.

I think she fits that mold.

I thought she was senile over twenty years ago!

That old girl just needs to stay in the house sans media attention and, hopefully, quickly fade to black.
