Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker said on Saturday that he doesn’t know whether President Obama is a Christian, repeating a response that sparked a firestorm months ago.

“I don’t know,” the 2016 Republican presidential candidate said at the biannual Koch brothers donor network conference in Dana Point, Calif., according to Time magazine, when asked whether he has tried to find out.

“I presume he is,” he added. …

Stupid gotcha question which has nothing to do with the running of our country.

No need to say, “I presume he is”. Just say, “You will recognize them by their fruits. Are grapes gathered from thornbushes, or figs from thistles?”

He asks for blessings for sodomites, muslims, and baby-killers. He refuses to help Christians. He curses productivity and blesses sloth.

Obama thinks it should be pronounced Christ-I-am.

Please pardon the disrespect.

Proper answer to the question of fact: “He’s alive; ask him.”

Some suggested reading for Obama from Wikipedia:

1. Apostasy in Islam is commonly defined as the conscious abandonment of Islam by a Muslim in word or through deed. It includes the act of converting to another religion, or becoming non-religious, by a person who was born in a Muslim family or who had previously accepted Islam.

2. In Islam’s history, the vast majority of scholars have held that apostasy in Islam is a crime punishable with the death penalty, typically after a waiting period to allow the apostate time to repent and return to Islam.

Not this again.

How would Walker know?
Does he know Obama personally and intimately? No.
Is he a mind reader? No.
Is he God? No.

The media can ask ME, and I can assure you I would be more than happy to provide lots of proof that he and his family ARE NOT CHRISTIANS.

NO, but it IS MARXISM. (something I've been writing about since March 2008)

He/they may try to suggest that attending a church service once a year might make them Christians but like everything else about odumbo, that’s phoney as well. No, the are not Christians.

Gov. Walker, next time you could tell them, “Zot, this is so BORING! Weren’t you paying attention the last two times?” Treat them like dimwitted teenagers.

Note to GOP

This question is a TRAP to misquote you

Do not answer!

Or say “ why would you ask ME that? It has nothing to do with me or my campaign. Next?”

That is our story- stick to it
Obama be gone in January 2017, who cares what he worships

The answer is ... "He hasn't proven it by MY understanding of Christianity"

That will force the media to ask, "Well ... WHAT in your opinion is a Christian ?"

BOOM!

full force evangelistic call to repentence and salvation by receiving Jesus as Savior

Trump would unload on the press for asking this question. I DO NOT support Trump, but the rest of these guys need to pay attention. STOP mollycoddling the devil spawn media.

I think the proper response would be, “Obama says he’s a Christian. Who am I to say otherwise?”

Just leave it at that. None of us is God and only God knows the heart of a person.
