Left hand is used in Muslim world to wipe instead of toilet paper and the right hand..
Remember, in Afghanistan, and throughout the Muslim world, Afghans use the right hand exclusively for all public functions. These functions include shaking hands, eating, drinking, and passing something to another person.
Using the left hand is an insult and, if done in the presence of many others, could bring shame to an Afghan.
The left hand serves a specific purpose – hygiene after the use of the toilet. Afghans will cleanse their hands immediately after. In fact, many consider the Western practice of using paper to be offensive, and question how paper can make one sufficiently clean. Some historians believe this may be the reason hand shaking is done with the right hand universally in all cultures.
Behaviors and Etiquette ? Physical Gestures: Head, Feet and the Left Hand

So being left handed and using toilet paper with my right hand do you think Muslims KNOW Obama is left handed and may also use his right hand with toilet paper??

Most people are totally unaware that Muslims as the above excerpt states "question how paper can make one sufficiently clean"!
So why would they think Obama being left handed would use his left hand with the toilet paper and not his right hand.
I am guessing but how many of you that like me are left handed USE your right hand and if that is more widely the rule, then
when a Muslim shakes hands with Obama right-handed is the Muslim aware of that "filthy" right hand replaces the "evil left hand"?

Again most people aren't aware that Latin is the the source of French,English,Spanish etc. and in Latin the word sinistra originally meant "left" but took on meanings of "evil" or "unlucky" by the Classical Latin era,

So, if you were left-handed or sinister, you were associated with evil. In time, sinister itself meant evil and threatening. EtymOnline said that sinister attained this meaning in the early 15th century. The OED supports this, writing that the first uses of sinister to mean malicious were:Behaviors and Etiquette ? Physical Gestures: Head, Feet and the Left Hand

So given the left hand is used in Muslim world instead of toilet paper BUT if a left handed person uses the right hand with toilet paper would not then the ritual of "right hand" shaking between a Muslim and Obama be difficult?
 
It's official!!! The OP has lost his mind. Aren't there enough significant issues to discuss? Do you really have to search out idiotic ones? :eusa_eh:
 
Dear Conservatives,

Yes, we think you are as loopy toon nutso as OP. It's your fault we think this way.

Sincerely, Liberal Americans.
 
The problem is people like you that obviously HAVE NO problem with statements like these that inflamed terrorists to kill 3000 more US troops by prolonging the IRAQ war
have a real problem because Obama and these Democrats didn't have and problem in ignoring these beyond the "water's edge" statements...

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid(D) "The war is lost, the surge is not accomplishing anything "

U.S. Rep. John Murtha(D) "Our troops killed innocent civilians in cold blood,”

Senator Kerry (D) "American soldiers going into the homes of Iraqis in the dead of night, terrorizing kids and children."

Durbin (D) "must have been done by Nazis, Soviets"--action of Americans in the treatment of their prisoners.
Senator Obama said "troops are air-raiding villages and killing civilians,"

But let one little American raise a simple question like do the Muslims know Obama wipes with his right hand?
 
Bush and Rumsfeld refused to put 400,000 pairs of boots on the post-invasion ground as advised by Shinseki; they fired his ass instead.

In 2007, Bush put 400,000 American, coalition, and mercenary pairs of boots on the ground.

healthmyths, :fu:
 
Obama bows instead.

All of those things are true. The Iraq War was a flop & failure, and the voters are right to hold the GOP most responsible for its failure.
 
Absolutely true. Bush and our GOP failed our nation and the people of Iraq. Thank heavens it is over. The history books will rank it as a worse foreign policy action than even Vietnam.
 
That was part of his World Apology Tour.

Muslims in the Middle East are nowhere near as uptight about the left hand as the profoundly idiotic opening post would have you believe.

The military action was "mission accomplished" May 1, 2003 with exactly the right number of military !
It wasn't until TRAITORS LIKE YOU and others like THESE:
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid(D) "The war is lost, the surge is not accomplishing anything "

U.S. Rep. John Murtha(D) "Our troops killed innocent civilians in cold blood,”

Senator Kerry (D) "American soldiers going into the homes of Iraqis in the dead of night, terrorizing kids and children."

Durbin (D) "must have been done by Nazis, Soviets"--action of Americans in the treatment of their prisoners.
Senator Obama said "troops are air-raiding villages and killing civilians,"

Made these speeches THAT according to a Harvard study... NOT ME dick head!!! A Harvard and here READ the study dumb f...!

A Harvard study found here THE "EMBOLDENMENT EFFECT" asked:

"Are insurgents in Iraq emboldened by voices in the news media expressing dissent or calling for troop withdrawals from Iraq?

The short answer is YES!!! according to Radha Iyengar, a Robert Wood Johnson Scholar in health policy
research at Harvard and Jonathan Monten of the Belfer Center at the university's Kennedy School of Government.


STUDY ABSTRACT
Are insurgents affected by information on US casualty sensitivity? Using data on attacks and variation in access to international news across Iraqi provinces, we identify an “emboldenment” effect by comparing the rate of insurgent attacks in areas with higher and lower access to information about U.S news after public statements critical of the war. We find in periods after a spike in war-critical statements, insurgent attacks increases by 5-10 percent.

AGAIN dumb f...k! Do you think the terrorists DIDN"T find the above Democrat politicians words encouraging?
I mean dumb ass Obama telling the world our military methodically air raiding villages killing civilians!!!
Even someone as dumb as you I would think know you don't go around tell the enemy we are bunch no good killers which what the above TRAITORS DID!!!
