I am not american, so I don't know what you are talking about.

One thing I know for sure, he's not idolised as an idol like your prophet is.... Also, here's another thing I read today about how you muslim venerate such a person

CAIRO: Ali Gomaa, Egypt's top Mufti, requested that all Islamic institutions put a unified standard to which all sheikhs in the world should adhere, when it comes to issuing fatwas, reported Al-Ahram Daily newspaper.

Gomaa himself is the author of a controversial book which claimed that Prophet Mohammed's (PBUH) companions used to drink his urine, considering it a blessed act, as reported by Al-Masry Al-Youm newspaper.

so now we know that muslims were drinking the urine of their prophet.

Nobody is drinking the urine of George Washington.
