Outrage after Obama compares ISIS to the Crusades in comments at National Prayer Breakfast

President Barack Obama set off a firestorm Thursday morning by comparing ISIS barbarity to the Crusades.

Obama recalled the savagery carried out nearly one thousand years ago in the name of Christ while speaking at the National Prayer Breakfast, in Washington, D.C., but his equivocation fell on outraged ears.

The president railed against the Islamic State, calling it "a brutal, vicious death cult" that slaughters and enslaves innocents all in the name of religion.

How many times does he have to proclaim his Moslem religion before the Washington Times and Sean Hannnity accept it? I guess if he doesn’t use the Word Moslem as pertaining directly to himself (actually he has done that) the MSM will refuse to recognize it. The more perceptive of the Radio talkers know and have indicated that they know it but they won’t say it either. I suspect that radio stations would feel that their fingers were burned if they did and would drop them.

What do you get when your president’s formative experiences and education were all Moslem, third world, and Communist and he has no experience at all in the real world of making a living?

You get false conservatives writing "there is not a dime's worth of difference" between Obama and Bush/McCain/Romney and the State of Virginia voting for Obama twice in a row ?

Hm. I saw the video. I hate Obama as much as anyone, but you’re mischaracterizing what he said. In context, that is not what he said.

Obama is so detached.

I keep waiting for Michelle to get up and walk out on his butt.

The crusades never went to Arabia. They went to regions that had been Christian and then had been violently subjugated to Islam by the jihadists.

Even then, the numbers of deaths were relatively low after years of fighting.

Fox News has a Vatican report saying upwards of 100,000 Christians a year are dying for their faith.

Lying, at least is annctioned by the Koran when dealing with Infidels and apostates. Lying is good if used to enhance the Moslem and/or Islam.

Obama wasn’t going to risk getting slammed again, like he was by Eric Metaxas and Ben Carson.

Strictly speaking, that may be the case.

He doesn’t, however, consider himself Muslim.

Yes, he’s a flaming fag. Look at him walking on the beach with Reggie Love. Hell, no real man does that or has that look.

That's exactly what he is and he it explains everything he does. And you know what's going to happen? Iran will get a nuke and pass it off to Ham-ass who will set it off in Israel most likely when a Republican US President is in office and is reading a book to school kids and liberals will blame him. Clinton and Obama, a terrorists best friend, two Presidents DEMOCRATS put him into office, not once but TWICE.

And doing so with considerable success, it is worth noting, and with armies that were relatively small, very special forces, we might say.

I guess his watch is running 800 years late. It could happen to anyone.

“The president railed against the Islamic State”...did he actually call it that?
