Bishop Jackson To Obama: ‘Frankly Sir, You Ought To Close Your Mouth’
Western journalism ^ | Feb.6, 2015

Posted on 02/07/2015 7:24:32 AM PST by nuconvert

There has been strong reaction to President Barack Obama’s remarks at the National Prayer Breakfast on Thursday when he compared the murderous acts being committed by Islamic terrorist groups and centuries-ago Christian campaigns.

And lest 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. In our home country, slavery and Jim Crow all too often was justified in the name of Christ.

The founder of StandAmerica, Bishop E. W. Jackson, told Elizabeth Hasselbeck on Friday morning’s Fox and Friends that he had a message for President Obama:

I have a message for the president with all due respect to him and to the office: Mr. President, if you don’t want to give terrorists a recruitment’s tool, instead of closing Guantanamo Bay, frankly sir, you ought to close your mouth. Because you just gave them a gigantic propaganda tool. They called us ‘crusaders’ and you just confirmed it.

The Bishop went on to slam President Obama for defending Islam over American Christians.

Mr. President, we’re not on our ‘high horse.’ What we are is on high alert. And the American people would like for once, to know that you are willing to defend Christianity and defend America instead of defending Islam.

No, Obama should keep talking. Objective people have a reason to know what’s on his mind.

It’s called “giving aid and comfort to the enemy.”

The Crusades and the Inquisition were backlashes against Muslim incursions into Europe. Slavery and Jim Crow laws had nothing to do with Christianity. Christians led the abolitionist movement.

What the bishop fails to ralize is that Obama is Muslim, hires Muslims, supports Muslims with $$$ and military weapons, and is a foreign plant inserted into the highest office by careful planning for decades. He is not a Christian, never was and just attended Wright’s church (which teaches BLT not Christianity per se though there some Christian elements in it) to build his dossier for his run at the WH. Whoever planned his insertion knew The American People would never elect a Muslim president so he had to attend a Christian and have a family (another part of the ruse because they would not have elected a gay president either.

I hope Barry just keeps on talking. They were conducting on the street interviews in NYC and the guy was getting dissed yesterday. When you start to lose Libtard Central you are in big trouble.

Christians led the abolitionist movement.

True that. I have the family tree evidence to prove it with at least two anti-slavery, Christian men in my family tree. One worked with the Underground Railroad in Ohio.

That is true of many. One of my ancestors died of starvation in Andersonville at the age of 18 trying to end slavery. My family never owned a slave, and never supported slavery. However in the eyes of the race pimps today, they have labeled every white person in America a slave-loving racist oppressor of anyone black.

I doubt MLK would agree with their current assessment...

It really bothers me when people say “Sir” to the despicable sack of excitement that currently occupies the White House. He deserves no such expression of respect. And no, I don’t think it should be given to him out of respect for the office he holds. He has sullied that office to the point that it is presently not worthy of any respect either.

My favorite line of his interview was when he chastised Obama for always being on HIS ‘high-horse,” lecturing the people of America. Bravo!

Obama needs to close his mouth?
Come on now, you don’t want to interfere with his sex life!
Op’s sorry! Just a thought.

Exactly.

Freedom of speech enables us to find the true character of others.

Whether fools, liars or traitors....they will be found out.
