a short religious passage comes across President Obama's BlackBerry

That must generally be the one stating "from each according to his ability, to each according to his needs."

Either that or: "Death to the infidel."

I have no problem with anyone keeping their religious and spiritual values personal. I believe results speak louder than showmanship, and to date, his actions have been mostly detrimental to the U.S.

Each begins thusly:

"According to Mohammed, Peace Be Upon Him,....."

Have any stealth teams been seen bringing the bodies of aborted babies from the dumpsters around Washington? There are some only blocks from the White House. They would be excellent for a ritual offering them to Satan each morning.

Gag me. Sounds like his speech is going to be a totally political attempt to demonize the side that doesn’t agree with his commie ideas.

This creep gets more hateful and disingenuous every day.

If Barack H. is praying and destroying America, his spirituality directs him to pray to an entity beneath our feet, not above our heads.

And what kind of god is it who is pleased with the intent of O’Baal’s agenda?

Rules Christianity out, I don’t believe Jesus gives us the option of having a “private” “spirituality.”

Bowrama's spirituality is largely private,...

Must be! Has he attended a church, any church, since he's been in office?

Let me get this: a largely atheistic profession, newspaper “journalism” is writing about a demonstrably atheistic politician having a “private” faith?

Who are they trying to fool? Themselves? Do they think people of faith BELIEVE what they’re writing anymore?

Really—Ms. Kornblut got PAID to write this crap?

On issue after issue, Preckwinkle presented Obama as someone who thrived in the world of Chicago politics. She suggested that Obama joined Jeremiah Wright’s Trinity United Church of Christ for political reasons. “It’s a church that would provide you with lots of social connections and prominent parishioners,” she said. “It’s a good place for a politician to be a member.”

Bullsh*t.

Obama prays to the real God about as often as the Pope prays to Mohammed.

What garbage. David Axelrod is behind this scheme to give 0bongo some right wing appeal. Plus some liberals are religious. Blacks go to church a lot

Axelrod’s doing
0bongo is too dumb and ideological to figure this out

Allahu Akbar?

I try to keep in mind that no leader leads without the Lord permitting it. God gives us the freedom to choose good or evil and the freedom to live with the choices we make. America voted for Obama. We chose poorly, now we get to deal with it. That’s how people learn, taking responsibility for and living with bad choices.

BTW, I’m convinced the Obama administration is as evil as they come. Wealth redistribution, for example, is just a nice way to say thievery. Support for abortion is support for murder. Spending money you don’t have and placing that burden on others is also theft. Coveting what other people have is greed. Wanting to punish them for their success is based on envy. Yeah, the left pretty much thrives on the very worst of man’s nature, and Obama is the high priest of the left.
