Like all communists, Obama is an atheist allied with Islam to destroy America, Christendom and the West.
I thought that for years. And, in that vein, one might say that Obama is at odds with Putin because he isn't doing Communism right, and clearly supports Christians.
But recently, looking at how he surrounds himself with Muslims (as well as Communists), and how he pushed for instability in Egypt and Libya, I'm beginning to think he sees himself as Black Caliph of the West.
