Took me 12 seconds to find out this was 'Mostly False'. Translation, a huge distortion of the facts.
In my opinion, the only people who believe this type of horse shit are the ones who want to believe it (prejudiced), or are too stupid to see past the demagoguery of their party of choice.

To expand a little on your comment oshins, I would like to point this out:
" When President Obama took office the United States paid several millions of dollars to have a large number of Palestinians, (All Muslim), immigrated here from Palestine. Why? I have no idea, do you! We dont pay for other persons to immigrate here, and Im sure that some of those Muslims moved into Michigan with the large current number of Muslims already established there."
This is part of an OPIC initiative. Obama did not import Muslims here it was a proposal for OPIC to invest US private business interest in the Middle East.
OPIC (Overseas Private Investment Coporation) is a Government Agency established during the Nixon Administration to foster overseas investment for our private sector. Here is the link to OPIC and then the Wiki entry:
http://www.opic.gov/
"The Overseas Private Investment Corporation (OPIC) is an independent agency of the United States Government that mobilizes U.S. private sector investment in new and emerging markets overseas in order to support both the sustainable economic development of those markets and the creation of American jobs at home.
OPIC operates on a self-sustaining basis at no net cost to the American taxpayer; the agency has recorded a positive net income for every year of operation, with reserves (consisting of U.S. Treasury securities) totaling approximately $5 billion."
Transparency is here via the net. Any politician or party that misrepresents itself will be exposed almost immediately. The days of misinformation and lies are over.
