<...>
"His mother must have been a Muslim," Graham said. "We don't know that, but she married two Muslim men, so there must have been something there."
"And the framework that the President has growing up, his influences in his life, was that of Islam," he added.

The reverend said that like many Americans, he enjoyed a Christian upbringing, unlike Obama.
"Our President did not have that. It was Islam. And many feel that he's protecting Islam," he said. "I don't know that, but it certainly seems that way."

----------------
Put aside his stupid insinuation that Obama's mother was Muslim, how can he say Obama is not fighting ISIS?
The US is leading the coalition and has dropped 80% of the bombs on ISIS.
How can one credibly say that Obama isn't fighting ISIS?
This is a common right wing talking point which has no basis in reality.
