Singer Pat Boone has been one of the foremost voices of Christian conservatism in America for quite some time, and now the 1950s teen idol has spoken out yet again, this time on President Barack Obama’s handling of the Charleston shooting.
In an op-ed, Boone posited that the president’s insistence on labeling all crimes involving black victims “racist” ignored the true problem — evil.
“As the president who came to office, a black man promising to bring people together, a man ideally suited for that job since you were born both black and white, you had a God-given chance to actually proclaim and demonstrate that racial divides and prejudice had greatly diminished and that our society was truly becoming colorblind,” Boone wrote.
“Instead, both at home and, even more sadly, abroad, you have continued to bring up and confess America’s past record of racial prejudice and indicate we ‘still have issues to resolve’ pertaining to race — as if your very presence as twice-elected president of the United States doesn’t proclaim loud and clear that we as a people have largely, though not completely, put to rest any image of America as an ongoing ‘racist’ nation,” Boone wrote.
“We are not!”
Boone then brought up the specters of the Trayvon Martin and Mike Brown cases, pointing out that even though the facts indicated neither of these cases were about race, “you and Al Sharpton and your attorney general tried your best to make it so.”
“Sir, in both those and so many other cases, the fact that one of those involved was of the black persuasion had little if anything to do with the outcome,” Boone wrote. “If the perpetrator had been white or Hispanic and the officer black, the outcome would have been the same. Would you have cried ‘racism’ then? Very doubtful.”
Boone then turned to the Emanuel AME Church shooting.
“Now we come to the horrific scene in Charleston, S.C., in which a satanically inspired young white kid mercilessly kills a number of fine black Christians in a Wednesday night prayer service, in church!” Boone wrote in the piece for WND. “And yes, I said, ‘inspired by Satan!’ Though this had a racist element, to be sure, it was more than that and of far greater significance to America than that.”
“This boy wasn’t just a sadist, or even criminally insane — he was carefully prepared and led by the Devil himself to kill as many Christians as he could. The fact that they were black was an excuse more than a reason … And let me persuade you to substitute another, more valid word for ‘racist,'” he added.
“The word evil.” (Emphasis Boone’s.)
Boone closed by stating that removing God from the public sphere — a movement that Obama has aided and abetted for his entire presidency, when he hasn’t outright championed it — was partially to blame for the rise of evil in America.
“God loves America, Mr. President. But during your watch, His name is being erased from public life, forbidden in schools, ignored and repudiated in much public policy and laughed at in popular entertainment. You declared, ‘Whatever America once was, she is no longer a Christian nation,'” Boone wrote.
“Simple, stupid ‘racism’ is not our problem, Mr. President. It is declaring that we are no longer a nation “under God.” And as our society increasingly moves away from God’s protective, loving hand, we can expect more and more horrific demonic evil.“
Ideas do have consequences; so do words. An orator of Barack Obama’s ability should certainly understand that.
So when Obama publicly declared America to no longer be a Christian nation, what consequences do you think he was aiming for?
Wow.
Well said!..Bless him!
To black supremacists like Obama and fellow travelers, racism is the greatest evil. Except their own racism, of course.
God bless Pat Boone.
Well Said, Mr Boone, Well Said!
I only wish he was more open about his feelings.
Really. I mean, we only ever get to hear about liberals in celebrity voicing their stupid opinions. That includes oldster “has-been” liberals like Harry Belafonte and Tony Bennett, whose feelings only became heard publicly in the last 10 years.
Pat pens another hit.
Thank you Pat!

Good on Pat. America’s problem is the usurper.
—BOOM!!!—
Pat Boone calls 0 out!!!
I suspect that Obama hates white people. Why? I don’t know. A slight bit of self-hatred? I don’t know. - I do know he has wasted no racial crisis as a means of widening the racial divide in this country. - Alas! He could have used his bully pulpit to foster peace & brotherhood; but the choice was his. - And his to answer to God about. - Surely he could not have wanted to foment a civil war; could he?
Bless you Pat. Your punch line said it all. Obama publicly declared America to no longer be a Christian nation. The muslim bastard needs to be crucified, who ever he may be.
God bless Pat Boone.
Pat Boone throwing down some science!
Mad Respect
I just had a thought. Wouldn’t Obambi just HATE it so bad if we constantly referred to him as half white?? the half white Obama......
Oh I know it would get under his skin so bad since we know he tried so hard to be a black man.
