And yes, I read the longer context of the quote. I also saw saw Steph try to help bail him out. But without that help, then the longer context (which does seem to reveal what Obama must have been thinking) doesn't appear to have been coming & it leaves BHO saying something that really doesn't seem like a wise comment to put on the table.
Trust me, if he's even got two brain cells to bump together, he'd say his choice of words was a mistake. Or maybe even a miscue.

Yes he meant to say "Muslim", and Steph may have been trying to bail him out, though I don't see why that was necessary. He was clearly talking about attacks made by bloggers and others calling him a Muslim and saying that McCain hadn't directly taken part in that. McCain hadn't been making comments about his "Muslim faith". He could have changed that to say that McCain wasn't making comments about his "so-called Muslim faith", but the context seemed to make that obvious.
