Obama Selects First Openly Gay Episcopal Bishop to Lead Easter Prayer

Obama pulled a surprise move Monday at the White House’s Easter Prayer Breakfast when he selected Gene Robinson to lead the closing prayer. Robinson is famously known as the first openly gay Episcopal bishop.

Talking Points Memo’s Tom Kludt spotted the following tweet from Robinson, who was in attendance:

Bishop Gene Robinson @BishopGRobinson

POTUS "preaches" at the Easter prayer breakfast. Then, out of the blue, asks ME to close with prayer. OMG! #privilege

Robinson, 66, became diocesan bishop of New Hampshire in March 2004. He retired in January 2013 and is currently a senior fellow at the progressive Center for American Progress.

Was it not at that time that Obama commented on the shooting out in Kansas at the Jewish center?

Gene Robinson is a liar, adulterer, fornicator, and he left his wife. He’s a drunk, too.

However, because he’s gay, he’s held up as a moral example by the left.

Obama does this this type of thing just to try to demoralize the general population. This idiot has a true hatred for normal Americans. His contempt is the most transparent thing about him.

One more demonstration of the fact that Obama hates virtually every aspect of traditional Western values & culture. Those Americans who thought it a "good idea" to elect someone who would show an American acceptance of "diversity," as a goal, have certainly a great deal to reflect upon.

I can still remember seeing in a newsreel, in the early 1950s, the stirring testimony of a then head of the American Legion, before a Congressional Committee, to the effect that "the time for apologetic Americanism, is gone forever." I thought the testimony stirring; unfortunately many of our people have never grasped the reality involved.

Exactly. Anything to mar a traditional activity. He’s trapped at certain events like this where he is expected to do something traditional and wholesome.

Of course his very fiber recoils at such notions so he looks for any way to put his progressive mark on it. This is another example.

He hates the very notion of traditional values. To him it’s just another representation of evil white-man’s America, so he just MUST do something to “speak truth to power”.

He’s such a ....
