White House boycott of National Day of Prayer?

AP ^ | 5-3-09

[truthandlife]

Organizers of this week's National Day of Prayer still don't know whether the White House will participate.

The event's evangelical character earned it a White House welcome during President George W. Bush's eight years in office. But Brian Toon, vice chairman of the National Day of Prayer Task Force, says to date, there's been no mention of a White House observance being held this year.

[Redleg Duke]

I suppose if everyone isn’t praying to “The One”, then he will order a boycott.

I believe that O’bama HATES Christianity. Of course, he’s a Muslim so he feels threatened by the mention of Jesus Christ.

[truthandlife]

The interesting thing about this story is it is an AP story.

[Anitius Severinus Boethius]

Interfaith Alliance and Jews on First sent a letter this month to President Barack Obama asking him to declare that the National Day of Prayer is for Americans of all faiths - and even for nonbelievers.

Just like marriage is for homosexuals.

I'll end the suspense for you, Brian. There won't be.

[My Favorite Headache]

The interesting thing about this story is the fact we live in a country with a group of total losers like this in the White House period. It just gets worse and scarier every day.

[dalebert]

you mean the antichrist doesn’t want to pray for the nation.

[kromike]

The First Muslim is too busy bending over for Mecca five times a day.

George Soros is a secularist just as he is anti-American....he is the puppet master.

[BenLurkin]

National Day of Prayer is for Americans ... even for nonbelievers.

They have GOT to be kidding!

[a fool in paradise]

This “nonbelievers” phrase, which Barack Obama used in his innaugural adress, irks me.

I say this because in his speech, he mentioned Christians, Jews, muslims, and non-believers. Only Islam sees the three identified faiths as “legit” because they are from “The Book”.

All other faiths (including Hinduism, Buddhism, Scientology, Paganism, Wiccan, Atheism...) are lumped together under some interpretations of that “non-believers” catch-all.

[dfwgator]

I sure hope they all didn't eat beans beforehand.

[trisham]

I never really paid much attention previously, but now that I look at it, it seems rather odd.

[BenLurkin]

Just don’t nobody light a match.

[RebelTXRose]

Apparently, all things GWB are not being done. I saw somewhere yesterday that he will only “proclaim” the National Day of Prayer and not hold an event at the WH - GWB was the first to invite the Dobson’s for an observance on the National Day of Prayer.

[RebelTXRose]

I was just so glad they didn’t take the picture from the “other perspective”...

[hoagy62]

I sure hope they all didn't eat beans beforehand.

This picture almost SCREAMS for a Photoshop of some kind portraying exactly what you're speaking of. You know...clouds of putrid vapors...that kind of thing.

[a fool in paradise]

I guess the Religious Left left.

You hit the nail right on the head! He's a muslim and always has been. He only played at claiming to be a Christian for political purposes. He intentionally flubbed the swearing in, so he could do it in private with a koran.

[F.J. Mitchell]

Hmmmmm. Looks like they were all playing leap frog and didn’t jump high enough,thus burying their heads in the one ahead. Sort of a chain reaction.

Of course he’s a Muslim. Research ‘The Obama File’ by our own FReeper, Beckwith.
http://www.theobamafile.com/ sections ‘Islam’ and ‘Religion’. The evidence is overwhelming.

Will the real Obama please stand up?

George Soros is a secularist just as he is anti-American....he is the puppet master.

Soros is also a Jew who sold out other Jews to the Nazis in his native Hungary. He made money off their property seizure and arrest. I am amazed after all these years that some relative of one of those Holocaust victims hasn't exacted revenge on him for that.

[EAGLE7]

I believe that BO is a Muslim. What is disturbing is that marxist won the Presidency so soon after 9/11 when the question of his Religion was questioned by many. But give Barry a break. He still has a few years to make the State of The Union address look like this.....

[The Sons of Liberty]

I wonder when Christians will grow tired of “turning the other cheek” to the muzzie 0bama?

[OneWingedShark]

lol - I like that tagline.

[DHC-2]

You’d think the religious blacks would be going nuts with this guy. He’s anti-God .... how can that play in black churches (especially the “real” ones, not like Rev Wright’s)

[PghBaldy]

GREAT point. Thank you.

[italianquaker]

Soon this buffoon will also include festivus. Wright showed us how he really feels and McCain helped him hide it, rant off

[a fool in paradise]

Psst. Reverend Wright is a former muslim. Some JOURNALIST should ask him about his Come To Jesus moment that made him give up on Islam.

[Marysecretary]

I believe that too. I am furious with Catholics and other Christians who voted for this man. They, of all people, should have known better because of his pro-death stance.

[pctech]

O isn’t even a christian, and yes, we can say that. The Bible says we will know them by their fruits. In his case, the fruit is all rotten.

[Marysecretary]

That’s right. He sat under a tyrant in the pulpit for 20 years and was brought up a Muslim. Too bad others who voted for him couldn’t see it.

WASHINGTON -- The blogosphere is abuzz with snippets of sermons at Pentecostal and charismatic churches attended by GOP vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin. In them, pastors ...refer to America as a "Christian nation."

Is this a picture of the White House lawn in 2010?

[glide625]

And as you go through your daily activities keep in mind that the One won something like 57% of the popular vote! So..........who’s around you now?

[dfwgator]

And as you go through your daily activities keep in mind that the One won something like 57% of the popular vote

That's 1 percent for each state.

[The Sons of Liberty]

You’d think the religious blacks would be going nuts with this guy.

Unfortunately, they just don't see past the color.

[huldah1776]

I was wondering what they used to design the towers.

[VRWCmember]

And as you go through your daily activities keep in mind that the One won something like 57% of the popular vote!

It was more like 52%

[VRWCmember]

My bad, it was almost 53%.

C’mon! He was baptized in 1996 by the Reverend Wright.

Of course he’s a Christian. /sarcasm

OH, of course. How silly of me...
