Via NakedEmperorNews, Looks like it can be worse than the schoolchildren singing to Obama, community organizers praying to Obama, blasphemy might be a good decription...

So the Constitution does include State sponsored religion in Federally funded organizations?
Who knew!
Can you believe...?
Are you frickin’ kidding me?
Unbelievable....would make a good skit for SNL.
You need the Pocket Obama to go with this. Like Chairman Mao’s little red book.
Introducing ‘Pocket Obama’: Must-have Anthology of Obama Quotes
By Noel Sheppard
Created 2009-01-24 13:40
Just in case you can’t get through a day without some refreshing and uplifting words from the new president, the History Company has created the “Pocket Obama.”
This is a tiny, pocket-sized book filled with “quotations borrowed from Barack Obama’s speeches and writings.”
According to its creators, “It is an unofficial requirement for every citizen to own, to read, and to carry this book at all times.”
I kid you not.
As proudly described [1] at the History Company’s website (h/t NB reader John Pagonis):
Printed in a size that easily fits into pocket or purse, this book is an anthology of quotations borrowed from Barack Obama’s speeches and writings. POCKET OBAMA serves as a reminder of the amazing power of oratory and the remarkable ability of this man to move people with his words. His superb and captivating oratory style has earned comparisons to John F. Kennedy and Martin Luther King, and this historic collection presents words that catapulted his remarkable rise to the American Presidency. It is an unofficial requirement for every citizen to own, to read, and to carry this book at all times.
Includes themes of democracy, politics, war, terrorism, race, community, jurisprudence, faith, personal responsibility, national identity, and above all, his hoped-for vision of a new America. POCKET OBAMA is a portable, everyday primer for readers who want to examine the substance of his thought and reflect on the next great chapter in the American story.
Now, I know what you’re thinking: this has got to be a hoax. Well, the History Company [2] does indeed exist:
It seems they think people just can’t get enough Obama.
This is eerily similar to Mao’s Little Red Book.
http://en.wikipedia.... [3]
Among the most widely printed books in history, Quotations had an estimated 5 to 6.5 billion copies printed during Mao’s attempt to transform Chinese society. The book’s phenomenal popularity may be due to the fact that it was essentially an unofficial requirement for every Chinese citizen to own, to read, and to carry it at all times during the later half of Mao’s rule, especially during the Cultural Revolution [4].
During the Cultural Revolution, studying the book was not only required in schools but was also a standard practice in the workplace as well. All units, in the industrial, commercial, agricultural, civil service, and military sectors, organized group sessions for the entire workforce to study the book during working hours. Quotes from Mao were either bold-faced or highlighted in red, and almost all writing, including scientific essays, had to quote Mao.
To defend against the theory that it would be counter-productive, it was argued that understanding Mao’s quotes could definitely bring about enlightenment to the work unit [5], resulting in production improvement to offset the time lost.
Yikes. That IS scary!!!

My goodness. I am used to “Lord, hear our prayer.” I wonder if Father Ned is going to have to change it or face re-education camp.
Each day it turns more bizarre.
Sick beyond words.
Are these members of Rev White’s church in Chicago?
I hate to be a wet blanket, especially since this would make a hi-larious story... but if you take away the huge subtitles it sounds a lot like they’re saying “O God” instead of “Obama”.
To check myself, I tried listening to it with my eyes closed, and it sounds like your basic response in a lot of Protestant services.
Granted, it’s still some hippie church where they preach “The Social Gospel” and are 90% social action and 10% theology. But I don’t think this is going to convince anyone who’s not straining to hear “Obama” when they say “O God”.
Am I the only one who’s skeptical?
I’m sure the nation will be VERY interested to see this on tonight’s five o’clock news.
(snicker)
If we had REAL journalists, instead of the useless propagandists we do have, you can bet your booty it WOULD be on tonight’s news.
On the other hand, if this were a group of whites chanting Bush’s name, you could equally bet your booty it would be played.
