This Presidential Remark Is More Telling

(CNN) – Those following President Obama’s prepared remarks during a speech in Milwaukee, Wisconsin Monday were thrown a bit of a curveball when it came to a description of his critics:
“Some powerful interests who had been dominating the agenda in Washington for a very long time and they’re not always happy with me. They talk about me like a dog. That’s not in my prepared remarks, but it’s true,” he told a crowd largely consisting of union members.

Now, recently I made an argument that Obama's leaving Michelle out of his Saudi trip could be interpreted many ways that don't lead to his being a Muslim. And, I still believe he's a Christian, but the remark quoted above tells me something fundamentally disconcerting about him.
Muslims detest dogs. Dogs are to Muslims what cockroaches are to us. That the President would use that comparison spontaneously tells me that in his sub-conscious he thinks like a Muslim.  His childhood images were Muslim and that has spilled over into his way of looking at the world. That's not bad in itself, but it may be bad for America if the President doesn't realize that his world view is to some extent not Christian but Muslim. And that probably leads to his political world view being to some extent Muslim, too. That's dangerous for the US and for the world.
He’s not American in his psyche, he never will be and he doesn't even realize it. He cannot possibly get it right about being President of the USA.
