While there are plenty of Bible verses to mention while discussing immigration, President Obama on Tuesday quoted one which isn't so great, mainly because it's not real. "The good book says don't throw stones at glass houses, or make sure we're looking at the log in our eye before we are pointing out the moat in other folks eyes," Obama said during a speech in Nashville. One problem, though: The Bible never mentions glass houses.
In addition to his biblical misquote, Obama also tied his immigration policy to the Christmas story, saying, "If we're serious about the Christmas season, now is the time to reflect on those who are strangers in our midst and remember what it was like to be a stranger." This analogy drew conservative ire as opponents of the president's immigration reform noted that Mary and Joseph were actually visiting Joseph's ancestral home.
Because these are so bad, they have to be done on purpose. All these quotes and millions of others are available online and can be copied with a click. They are simply showing their disdain for the Word of God. Laughing while they do it because they know their bosses only memorized the Koran.
I have removed all people from my life who voted for Obama. Even if they were to say “I was wrong” I still don’t want anything to do with them. First of all, they’d probably be lying. Second, they’d vote for the next Obama.
Like “Someone up there likes me.” I wonder who they think that is.
All the Mexicans are furiously searching their Spanish Bible looking for the verse. “Pablo! Es no here! Do we have the wrong Bible?”
Besides the fact that no real Christian would work for the Antichrist or even for his petty warmup act, which is why it makes sense that an Obama speech would make this mistake, this is more proof that the White House is full of amateurs with absolutely no skill or professionalism. It took me five seconds to find:

People who live in glass houses should not throw stones
Say what?
Those who are vulnerable should not attack others.
Origin
The proverb has been traced back to Geoffrey Chaucer’s ‘Troilus and Criseyde’ (1385). George Herbert wrote in 1651: ‘Whose house is of glass, must not throw stones at another.’ This saying is first cited in the United States in ‘William & Mary College Quarterly’ (1710). Twenty-six later Benjamin Franklin wrote, ‘Don’t throw stones at your neighbors’, if your own windows are glass.’ ‘To live in a glass house’ is used as a figure of speech referring to vulnerability.” From “Random House Dictionary of Popular Proverbs and Sayings” (1996) by Gregory Y. Titelman (Random House, New York, 1996).
Like the Bible says, Obama’s barking up the wrong tree without a paddle.
“People in grass houses shouldn’t stow thrones.”
;^)
Corollary:
People that live in grass houses shouldn’t stow thrones
Next he’ll be saying they were all homeless.
And they were imperial Spaniards, not aboriginal Mexicans.

St. Joseph and the Islam Koran: St. Joseph not mentioned.
1. As many of us know, Mohammad claims, about 600 A.D., that the angel Gabriel appeared to him and delivered God's message to him.
2. So, we would think that Gabriel, being sent by God, would have his historical facts correct.
3. St. Joseph and Gabriel: But the angel Gabriel does NOT seem to have his historical facts correct when it comes to St. Joseph, Mary's husband, according to the Christian Bible.
4. In fact, St. Joseph is never mentioned in the Koran.
5. Mary's surah/chapter: There is a long devotional chapter/surah dedicated to Mary, but St. Joseph is not mentioned.
6. Mary married St. Joseph AFTER she had Jesus? I visited a Muslim site and asked when Mary married St. Joseph.
7. The answer: Mary married St. Joseph AFTER Mary had Jesus.
8. Can you believe that, especially when the source is supposed to be the Archangel Gabriel? How absurd.
9. So according to Islam, Mary was an unwed mother when she had Jesus. Again, how absurd.
10. If Gabriel can't even get his facts straight after 600 years about the marriage of Mary and St. Joseph, then the obvious question is this: What other historical facts did the angel Gabriel get wrong? Plenty, I say.
Wait...it’s right there...in the 57th Book.
Absolute, categorical nonsense.
Mary and Joseph lived in the Roman province of Judea, but it is EXTREMELY unlikely that they held Roman citizenship.
Why bother to mention a fake book linked to a pseudo religion mentioning Mary and Joseph?
Nice NYM BTW ... can see why ... Tsatskeh Janey
Smith and Wilson may have been in America before Rodiguez and Garcia. Most Europeans came here about the same time, Spanish or English. Plus
The Spanish would have come up from Mexico into western US when very few people lived there. When did John Smith get Virginia vs any of either family settling in lands that became the US?
Make no mistake, Obama is (what is called) “chained to Satan’s chariot”.
Please God, Help US. We are a nation going under because of our disobedience to You. It is in Your Son’s Name, Jesus, that we ask to be delivered from our captives. Let Thy Will be Done, for it is in YOU that we trust...and no one else.
