This could be funny. Except it’s so sad & inappropriate. This guy’s such a narcissist. I’ll pass, but thanks.

Regrettably, I saw it live.

Very painful.

Just saw him on the NEWS.
Normally I would say, “Don’t quit your day job”.
However in this instance all I can say is his singing is similar to his golf.
Not sure he actually knew the hymn until today. A really sorry rendition.

My pit bull farts in tune better than that dodo.

Probably smells better, too.

I hate that man.

Nothing, nothing he does or has done, will ever be worth a damn in my eyes.

And this little grandstanding eulogy thing denigrates him even more.

By any chance did you hear what he said about gun control? I couldn’t stand to watch him.

God Bless Blazing Saddles.

That movie will never fail to provide us punchlines as needed.

I do not know Obamas heart, but he seems to be an entirely political creature. Someone tweeted that John Newton, the writer of this wonderful song, "Amazing Grace", was a slave trader in his youth. Now, the word GRACE is theologically defined as 'unearned, undeserved, unmerited favor with GOD. This is something which we all need, and can never earn. But, Obama seemed to be using this song as a rallying cry around a political event. We just went through the past 10 days of not being forgiving by the keepers of the culture, although the people who were the true victims (family of those killed) showed the kind of Grace which could only come from Jesus Christ. That has not been the call of Obama as he tried to divide by saying that 'little Johnny' gets called back for a job, while 'Little Jamal' never got called back for the job. That was the money quote from the community agitator. And he meant what he said, and he knew what he said. So in Obamas world there is not grace for the South. Get rid of the battle flag, Aunt Jemimiah, Uncle Bens, the Jefferson and Washington Monuments,....all vestiges of any history of the south definined in the caldron of those times. Obama never advocates unearned, unmerited favor because it represents that which Christ provided in his sacrifice.

So what do we make of mr. Obama breaking out in acapella of the song "Amazing Grace"? Is he saying that 'unearned' forgiveness should be the order of the day, or is he driving the Johnny/jemahl wedge for divisive reasons?

my sense is that this was a second chapter in the Paul Welstone memorial service...one to serve a base political interest. But God knows his heart, I do not.

2/3 of his “eulogy” was all political. I felt embarrassed for the family of the deceased.

Gun control, voting rights, Confederate flag, hunger, poverty...

It was all there.

Before he sang he talked about race and gun control. What a FRAUD he is and shameful.

Sounds like there is going to be another big rush to buy weapons and prices are going to skyrocket, again. Stockpiling of ammunition, also.
