At the National Prayer Breakfast, President Obama reminded attendees that violence rooted in religion isn’t exclusive to Islam, but has been carried out by Christians as well.
~snip~
“Unless we get on our high horse and think this is unique to some other place, remember that during the Crusades and the Inquisition, people committed terrible deeds in the name of Christ,” Obama said. “In our home country, slavery and Jim Crow all too often was justified in the name of Christ.”

Even at a Prayer Breakfast.
He’s so warm and welcoming.
The Crusades were a RESPONSE to Musloid aggression, not a preemptive strike.
Obama absolves Islam by slandering Christianity.
Just what I’ve what come to expect from Islam’s Chief Apologist.
F.T.A.!
Oh boy, this guy needs to go. This is the most offensive comment this Muslim President has said to date and he had to go as far back as the inquisitions and then throw race into the mix. IMPEACH NOW!
Mr. Obama forgets that the crusides were and do fit all that is needed for a “just war”.
Only a couple thousand died in the inquisitions. And that was over several hundred years. Not even close to what Muslims do.
If our so-called President doesn’t make any real American throw up by now, they really are not paying attention.
Who was he offering to pray to? Baal?
Christianity (or our understanding of God) has grown. Islam is still stuck firmly in its 7th century rut.
CC
Somewhere Hillary Clinton, Joe Biden, and any other dem who hopes to be president in 2 years are cussing at this guy....
Obama: "(whining).... but THEY did it TOOOOooo....."
Obama is a hardcore Islamic terrorist, who is 100% behind Al Qaeda and ISIS.
Obama’s view of history was settled during his upbringing as a Muslim. His further development as a Marxist through his grandparents and Frank Marshall Davis et al. have him locked into a 7th century world of religion and a 19th century world of economics. Valerie Jarrett is there at his elbow to make certain that he doesn’t do any critical thinking on either subject. Did you see Jarrett at his right elbow during that interview? It spoke volumes.
Those who voted for him... are you proud of this?
This creep forgets that he is only a puppet, and that what he says means zilch!!
But his masters want him to bash Christianity at every turn, and thus to favor the “gays”, the muslims, and the anti-Orthodox Christian wars in the Balkans, Ukraine, Syria, etc. PHOOEY!!!!
Obama absolves Islam by slandering Christianity.
That’s exactly what he’s doing.
This evil, vile man is Demonically driven.
What a way to participate in a "National Prayer Breakfast". The people there should have thrown their sausages and ham at the Christian hater.
It is true that many people through the ages have done terrible things claiming to do so for the Christian cause -- yet none of them could quote the Holy Scriptures that justified these actions.
Islam, on the other hand, can point to their handbook of mayhem, misery, and destruction - called the Koran.
Obama remains a Marxist, Islamic-loving tool -- no matter what evidence comes his way.
I think I'll rate that a mostly true. The First, Second and Third Crusades were responses to Muslim aggression. The Fourth started that way, then attacked other Christians, with misbehavior sufficient to justify being critical of crusading in general. Later Crusades numbered by historians were back in form, albeit ineffective. But then there are the Northern Crusades carried out by the Teutonic Knights (yes, with papal blessing) -- hey! let's convert the Baltic pagans and Orthodox Christian Russians to papal Christianity by the sword! By the grace of God, they were stopped by St. Aleksandr Nevsky in the Battle on the Ice.
Most of those that voted for him would say they agree. The spiral around the drain gets tighter...
