President Obama late Thursday celebrated Ramadan with a traditional dinner in the State Dining Room, saying that throughout the nation's history, “Islam has contributed to the character of our country.”

In remarks before the Iftar dinner, eaten by Muslims after sunset to end the day of fasting, Obama quoted from the Koran, according to a White House pool report. "As the Koran teaches, whoever does an atom's weight of good will see its results."

"Muslim Americans and their good works have helped to build our nation, and we've seen the results," he added.

Obama, who has hosted five Iftar dinners, focused on entrepreneurship during much of his speech.

“Every day, Muslim Americans are helping to shape the way that we think and the way that we work and the way that we do business," he said. "And that’s the spirit that we celebrate tonight -- the dreamers, the creators whose ideas are pioneering new industries, creating new jobs and unleashing new opportunities for all of us.”

It's hard to think of a comment that will express my exact thoughts!

I think that I'll go with that one too:

What an ASS that guy is!!!!!

Since Islam has done nothing positive for this Country, we're forced to lie to the American public.

A platitude: a trite, meaningless, biased, or prosaic statement, often presented as if it were significant and original.

The PC mentality gives all participants a ribbon of achievement for simply being present.

But even that would be too much praise for Islam. All it has done is introduce infection and disease.

I think that goes into the "In Your Face Sucka!" category.
