Georgetown Says It Covered Over Name of Jesus to Comply With White House Request
CNS NEWS.com ^ | Wednesday, April 15, 2009 | By Edwin Mora

SNIPPET: "Georgetown University says it covered over the monogram “IHS”--symbolizing the name of Jesus Christ—because it was inscribed on a pediment on the stage where President Obama spoke at the university on Tuesday and the White House had asked Georgetown to cover up all signs and symbols there."

SNIPPET: "Roman Catholics traditionally use “IHS” as an abbreviation for Jesus’ name."

SNIPPET: "Although the monogram was removed from the wooden pediment on the Gaston Hall stage where it would have been directly above and behind President Obama as he spoke, the letters “IHS” are posted elsewhere around the hall approximately 26 times on shields representing different parts of the United States and the world."

Barry Soetoro converted to Islam and became Barrack Hussein Obama.

Shameful-Shameful Shameful, that a Catholic Institution had this abortionist there to begin with, but to deny Christ so he could visit is Shameful.

The Jesuits placed IHS on their crosses , it means “In His Service” It is shameful that now the Jesuits at Georgetown and the President of Notre dame appear to be in the service of Obama.

I wouldnt be surprised if next he appeared at the Shrine of the Immaculate Conception.

Only God and Jesus and Obammie the Commie know what's in Jesus’ heart.

But from the fruit he bears, I find it very hard to believe this piece of narcissistic scum considers Jesus Christ his personal savior and the lead he is to follow.

It makes sense, since Chairman Obama decreed that we are not a Christian nation.

He didn’t have any trouble visiting Hagia Sofia either.

Or, bowing to the person who keeps Mecca & Medina.

I am staying quiet and maybe one day it will happen in front of me so I can create a major scene.

Georgetown, Notra Dame, Saint Mary’s would sell their institution to the devil if they thought it would please 0bama.

Who writes this stuff for CBS—a three-year-old? IHS stands for In Hoc Signum, by or in this sign, the sign being the cross, or the crossed letters of Chi (”X”), Rho (our “P”), the first two Greek letters of the word Christ.

Aside from that, I’m surprised Georgetown wasn’t the party insisting on the letters’ removal from the podium occupied by Obama.

The monogram BHO replaced it.

Rev Wright’s church is used by Muslims in business to cover up their Muslim background so why not ZERO? :) Have thought all along he was Muslim pretending to be a Christian.

Somehow I doubt the left will be outraged by this like they were with Ashcroft and the statue (I thought that was also a bit silly myself)

He who is represented by IHS put BO where he is and can take him down as well. Arrogant little man.

Amazing they can focus on details like that but give DVD’s to Gordon Brown that he can only use in a Best Western.

I was thinking about Peter’s denial of Christ.
Georgetown should have told Obama to go elsewhere for his speech.
