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.”

“Our Tnediserp”
OK, I’m stealing that - explains so much that has happened since he’s been in office....
“”We are summoned to push back against those who would distort our religion for their nihilistic ends,” Obama said during remarks at the National Prayer Breakfast....””
“What religion was he referring to there?”

If I were to guess, this sounds like possible talking points from his “private” meeting with Islam yesterday. Along with the ‘terrible deeds’ comment.

“Obama Reaches Out to US Muslims Amid Concerns of Backlash”
“...About a dozen leaders and other representatives of the U.S. Muslim community met Wednesday behind closed doors with President Barack Obama, a session that some of them had wanted for years.
Topics of discussion included anti-Muslim violence; safe-guarding civil rights; countering groups like the Islamic State (ISIS) that try to recruit Americans; and an administration summit on violent extremism that’s scheduled for Feb. 18.
“It was a listening session,” Dean Obeidallah, a prominent Arab-American comedian, said of the meeting as he left the White House. “On some level it was relationship building.”...”

He stands up there giving a pompous, condescending lecture about the need for people to be more humble.
The irony totally lost on him.

Thanks, rxsid.
Buckwheat’s expertise in world history is surpassed only by his expertise in American history.
“our religion”
“my muslim faith”
Once again, the Wizard of Smart, bestest prez EVAH knows squat about history.
If this was any kind of conservative, the lib media, lib pols and lib actors would pop a vein over how STUPID this and all of his statements are....
Kabuki theatre with deadly results....pray for us all......
Exactly.....
He’s got some nerve.
PING!
“Our religion” jug-ears? He doesn’t even leave subtle clues. Last week we ran into several people who (unsolicited) said to us that they KNOW without a doubt that he’s a muslim. That’s happening more and more often.
More Christians than that have been murdered recently in a single week by ISIS murderers in Mosul alone.
But don't tell the Bamster that. By his reckoning, all religions all "equal" in their murder.
I am about to the point that I cannot read the news. As it is, I won’t watch it anymore. It makes me sick.
I finished writing this and emailed it to my editor only a few hours before Obama’s remarks this morning:

In it, I said that it would be just like Obama to bring up the Crusades and Inquisitions in regard to ISIS atrocities!
Bizarre, because I wrote that and sent it in at around 4:00 am; Obama must have made his exactly identical remarks at 9-ish, simultaneous with my article being posted on ClashDaily.com.
If anything - B. Hussein is predictable.
You got that right!
I pray for the sake of my children, that our first openly anti-American President is our last.

Hmmm, maybe that's why they got slaughtered last election...?
