		<description>&lt;i&gt;&quot;Not sure why quoting from CNN isn’t allowed...&quot;&lt;/i&gt;

Well for starters because the so-called debunking was completely biased.   

The other links that you provide all cannibalize off either the CNN story or Obama&#039;s book.

How was it wrong?  Well for starters lets just say this.  How does showing what the school is like in 2007  have anything to do with when Obama attended?  Obama didn&#039;t attend the school in 2007.

And next, were you aware that at this school shown by CNN that all students (including non-muslim students) are required to dress in Islamic clothes on Fridays?

Were you aware that the US  State Department has  stated in their &quot;International Religious Freedom Report 2005&quot;  regarding Indonesia that - &quot;... that an education bill signed into law in 2003 that restricts religious freedom by forcing elementary and secondary school students to undergo religious instruction, sometimes in a religion other than their own...&quot;

From CNN&#039;s debunking report ---

&quot;This is a public school. We don&#039;t focus on religion,&quot; Hardi Priyono, deputy headmaster of the Basuki school, told Vause. &quot;In our daily lives, we try to respect religion, but we don&#039;t give preferential treatment.&quot;


You might find this of interest

		<description>&lt;i&gt;&quot;First, because it is so easily disproved (as CNN last year disproved the rumor that Obama had attended a madrassa by actually sending a reporter to Indonesia to interview Obama’s teachers and classmates) and so obviously sleazy, it’s not the type of thing an independent 527 group can put in television ads.  It can only be circulated through Internet and word of mouth, and those means of communication don’t have nearly the reach or credibility of television.&quot;&lt;/i&gt;

What exactly did CNN debunk or disprove?

And please don&#039;t quote from CNN or Obama&#039;s self-serving books.
