Mayor Refuses To Resign Over Stating That Obama is a Muslim Who Has “Destroyed the Fabric of Democracy”


City Councilor Graham Garfield called Hagen’s post inappropriate and offensive, saying it was untrue about Obama’s religion. However, he failed to produce any evidence to the contrary.

“Sure he’s entitled to free speech,” Garfield said. “But elected officials are held accountable for stupid things they do and say.”

Hagen said he’s only known Obama to be connected with a church where the pastor cursed America, and said after Obama was elected he “ran around the world apologizing to Muslim nations.” Hagen also said Obama refuses to call the Islamic State group “radical terrorist Muslims.”

Obama in 2008 denounced the reverend who made those comments about America. He also has said Islamic State terrorists don’t represent Islam.

Garfield was flanked by three council members on Monday, who called for Hagen to retract his statement or step down. Let that image sink in for a second. It sounds like a scene from a zombie film, only in this case, the zombies are “politically correct”.
