Obama live speech:"Jesus would raise taxes on 'the rich'"
MSNBC The Daily RunDown Live stream | 2/2/2012 | SOL/Obama at Prayer breakfast

Posted on 02/02/2012 6:45:51 AM PST by sickoflibs

Obama just said in a live speech (9:18 AM EST) at a Prayer Breakfast that he wants to raise taxes on the rich because his Christian values tell him to personally give more to those less fortunate by raising his own taxes, just as Jesus would do. Not kidding.... now he just called federal welfare 'charity'... and just accused those of opposing tax increases as 'not having Jesus love of others in their hearts'

Did Jesus really ask the Romans to raise taxes on the Jews and Samaritans to pay for the fish, bread and wine for the early Christians for economic fairness?? I read the Bible a few times but missed that part, "The Book of Krugman" ?

There’s no depth too low that this assh*le won’t stoop down to.

Worst President in US History. Makes Jimmy Carter look like a genius. And that’s not saying much.

Other than the Marxist liberation theology view of Christianity Obama got from 20 years of listening to Rev. Wright’s racist vitriol, Obama probably is equally familiar with Islams anti-capitalist views.

RE :”Someone should ask Obama what Jesus would say about abortion.

let me play Devil's (Obama’s) Advocate just to make it fun for you :)

Obama would say :
Jesus would be a champion of a woman's ‘right to choose’ to have an abortion because he believed in personal freedom opposing slavery, OH, except with Charity where he said compassion and love was voting for the rich to be forced to pay higher taxes, and he also would want those forced taxes to go pay for a woman's 'right to choose' to kill her (pre)unborn baby if that is what she wants for freedom.

How did I do ? I got this liberal-logic down :) I see a video coming on.

You heard Obama’s old car has failed to sell, and I know why.

He didn’t do what Jesus would do.

I applied that principle over here. LOL

Sort of boosts my theory that if The REV. Jackson came within ten feet of a Bible he’d burst into flames.

I have to give you credit! You DO have this "liberal-logic" down!

So yesterday he basically tells me that he will not recognize my 1st Amendment protected UNALIENABLE right to Freedom of Religion, and now the very next day he is trying to tell me what JESUS would do were he the PRESIDENT?

OH, HE** NO!!!

And, to make matters even worse, he's trying to equate mandatory confiscation of income through the threat of incarceration and monetary fines to CHARITY??? He clearly hasn't even look at the word in a DICTIONARY much less understands the concept as delineated in the Bible!

CLEARLY he is mocking us now... I'll play the game in defending my rights, Mr. Obama and it won't even matter. The people will STILL see your blustering as exactly what it is - a bunch of evil lies.

I need a Constitutionally-restrained government and President - NOT the government telling me what my religious beliefs and moral values can and cannot be. I am livid.

The fact that Obama is a recognized Muslim according that that faith's law (whether he is a godless communist or not) incenses me even more... Time to go pray for the state of this world. God have mercy on us all.

This must be "PHASE II" of Obama's MESSIAH PLAN -

Now he can add something like this to this quote; As part of this kingdom I demand you tithe 30% of your gross income to build these monuments to government excess and bureaucracy. (I see the Pharaoh and his slave drivers may have returned in earnest...).

Which "pillar" does attacking religious freedom fall under in Obama's plan to "change" America???

Time for me to go pray for Obama - and all the rest of us who have to deal with his insanity... I can't believe they are this blatant about it, frankly. It's like the gloves must've come off completely, eh?

To be clear, I am personally affronted by these actions. I am a lapsed Catholic, but I am genuinely personally offended by the statements made by our federal government officials. Just when you think they've done enough they throw something new into the mix that just astounds me even more - it's worse when you can see it coming on the horizon as we know what is waiting down this path if the nation continues on it... Must take a break - why do these people get away with these kinds of things for so long before the spell wears off? ugh...

It is not much consolation, but i am seeing a lot of negatives on him and the petite beautiful Michelle, I mean that classy wife of Barack’s who does push ups on national television.
I mean how classy can you get. At any rate, people are mad about her vacations.
But gee whiz, you know it is a lot of work running around telling people what to eat. Besides, she is probably being watched too closely here and the poor woman might get a chance to eat what she likes when she is out of U.S.
ha ha ha .

To be clear, it was Jackson who equated Republicans to “money changers”, right? These people make me sick.

Yes, but only the ones opposed to tax increases. If you are calling for tax increases on the rich he says you are OK.

That doesn't surprise me but you might notice that any similar questioning or assertions about Obama's motives are immediately characterized as racist.

This is standard progressive/leftist stuff. You know the liberal Alinsky tactic of distorting facts and arguments to make their opponents look like hypocrites that don't follow their own principles.

I saw O Lawrence Donnell (MSNBC) one night explaining to a Rush clip that the references by Jesus about loving the poor and hating the rich was proof that he would be for redistributed taxes.

CLEARLY he is mocking us now...

That he is. He is one arrogant SOB.

Except Buffet is one of those billionaires calling for higher taxes.

Those people are all hypocrites. They all hide money in tax shelters and none of them donate to the IRS (yes you can just give them money).

Instead of giving to the IRS himself Buffet has disingenuously offered to match any donations made by Republican (yes only Republican) Congressman. The man is a Marxist piece of crap and hypocrite.

Want a billionaire with a head on his shoulders, sounds like the Mexican guy who’s in first place fits the bill. Gates and Buffet are slime.

And Obama can shove his religious left arguments back down his throat with the rest of excrement.

He’s just saying that to convince fence-sitters to convert to Islam. Thanks sickoflibs.
