Allie is Wired Because Hollywood is Funny!

Madonna Defends Calling Barack Obama A 'Black Muslim' Sep 26th 2012, 15:56 Madonna is defending her statement that President Barack Obama is a black Muslim. The 54-year-old singer said she was being deliberately “ironic on stage” when she erroneously referred to the President during a concert. An audience member at the Verizon Center in downtown Washington captured Madonna delivering a rousing, profanity-laced political speech about freedom. “Now, it’s so amazing and incredible to think that we have an African-American in the White House … we have a black Muslim in the White House … it means there is hope in this country, and Obama is fighting for gay rights, so support the man.” Madonna issued a statement on Tuesday through her spokeswoman saying her reference to Obama’s religion was facetious. “I was being ironic on stage. Yes, I know Obama is not a Muslim – though I know that plenty of people in this country think he is. And what if he were? The point I was making is that a good man is a good man, no matter who he prays to. I don’t care what religion Obama is – nor should anyone else in America.” See the clip below: If it doesn’t matter, why bring it up in the first place?
