Crazy news making rounds during the last few weeks of stay in the WH of the historic unitor who many see as first Islamic President of the US:

https://creepingsharia.files.wordpress.com/2016/07/muslims-pray-whitehouse-2016.jpg?w=468&h=428



Claim: Donald Trump canceled various White House measures accommodating Islamic prayers in the building, upsetting President Obama.



Obama was seen storming away from the West Wing after staffers from Donald Trump’s transition team began preparing the Executive offices for the new administration. On Trump’s orders, one of Obama’s most secretive rituals is being reversed and all signs of it removed from 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.

For the past 7 years, to appease any Muslims working at or visiting the White House, silence has been ordered during the five times of Islamic prayer each day. In addition, prayer rugs and crescent moon symbols are available in several areas of the executive mansion to make Muslims more comfortable.
The administration has defended the practice by asserting that it also observes several other religious moments of silence and prayer out of respect, including a full 15 seconds for Christianity on Sunday morning while a chaplain blesses a staff breakfast. None of the prayer is mandatory or led by a government official, which has allowed the administration to subvert 1st Amendment issues, but the obvious favoritism towards Islam, which is observed for 25 minutes per day seven days a week, tells a story this president has denied for eight years.
President-Elect Trump, who acknowledges that this country was founded by Christians and was built on Christian morals, is having all pagan symbols removed from the property unless they offer some historical significance. Only the cross in the White House chapel will remain for worship. Jim Mergernerlerny, head of the team that will transform the White House from the Obama’s home to the Trump’s second home, told MSNBC:

Even you must have know that this is false news even before going to snopes. Sometimes I wonder if you are really this gullible or your are just a bad troll. Quit filling this forum with fake news and rubbish poll questions.

I'm not sure why you would post a story that is proven incorrect in the link that you provided. As juleswin mentioned, this is obviously false just from the headline without even needing to do any kind of actual thinking or research.

Isn't there a rule about low-value posting? FFS - as pointed out above, the links he provides as "proof" indicate it is false.

This is about as low-value as it gets.

Did this satire story made some folks object because it appeared too realistic compared to this other satire about Christie?

You did include an actual photo taken in the White House. No Trump limo keyed in the other story.

Do you think Trump or Trump related news are egregious?

Can you cite any examples of "egregious" news stories that you are referring to.

That is true.. photo from the same link was posted to show context of the "satire".

I'm just puzzled why no one objected to poor Christie satire but Trump satire is evoking such emotions.

Which media you find less credible, "fakenews" media or NYT/WaPo/CNN MSM?

I see. You think the piece you posted is more reliable and truthful. As Mr. Spock may say "fascinating!". You attempt to portray US media as fake while posting things like this? Only hurts your own credibility.

Are you being satirical or serious?

Is snopes a fake media site?

I noticed you did not answer a very simple question about media.

It's satire.Flatly posting untrue bullshit without comment, whether you believe it or not, is not satire. This is the "I was only pretending to be retarded" argument.
