“Some Christians who supported Obama ...”

No true Christian supported Obama. If the Holy Spirit was indwelling a person, that person would’ve been able to discern the truth.

[oyez]

I'm not let down at all. Your president is meeting my expectations -- a complete flop.

This time next year I expect this whole nation to be either in turmoil or have assumed the function of walking corpse.

If the country is a walking corpse, Obama will have exceded his own expectations

[fortunecookie]

It does make one wonder. Even if it's just our hope that surely he couldn't be that taken in by someone so obviously unCatholic. But it is weird and he has been strangely silent.

[Brett66]

It took me all of 2 seconds to figure out where he was coming from, why is this like rockets science to some people?

[oyez]

The president is a former member of the most liberal denominations in America. Once the voters heard B. Obama’s pastor, it should have been obvious that Christan values weren't a vital part of Obama’s plans./

"Obama's juggernaut candidacy swept many Christians into its wake. Some now appear to have "buyer's remorse."

Stupidit comes in many different shapes and sizes. They were stupid to fall for it.

[MattinNJ]

Wait. What? I had never heard that before. What was Mohammed’s grandson’s name?

[highlander_UW]

I don't understand. To be disappointed one would have to have expected something in the first place. Obama is pretty much the disaster I expected. My disappointment is in the American people.

Obama makes surprise visit to Iraq: AFP reporter
Apr 6, 2009

ISTANBUL (AFP) — President Barack Obama left Turkey on Tuesday and made made a surprise visit to Iraq, his first since taking office three months ago, an AFP reporter said...

Earlier, Obama visited a landmark mosque in Istanbul, following strong messages of US reconciliation with the Islamic world on his maiden trip to a mainly Muslim country as president.

Taking off his shoes as tradition requires, Obama stepped into the 17th-century Sultanahmet Mosque in the ancient heart of Istanbul, accompanied by Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan.

Two Muslim preachers guided Obama inside the grandiose edifice — better known as the Blue Mosque for its blue tileworks — and the president smiled when they showed him a dome scripture mentioning the Prophet Mohammed’s grandson Hussein, Obama’s middle name, Anatolia news agency reported.

PS while Barack Hussein Obama was named after his muslim Grandfather, it was NOT his grandfather’s birth name. His grandfather was a Catholic who converted to Islam.

If he truly wanted to declare himself a Christian AND honor his grandfather, he’d have changed his name to his grandfather’s Christian name. But then his mother was agnostic and his “Hawaiian” grandmother was a unitarian. Religion doesn’t mean much to the One. He’s said he holds a healthy skepticism of organized religion and that all religions will bring you the same result of “salvation” (paraphrasing, he certainly has spoken out that God would not condemn those who followed other faiths, I wonder if that includes atheism).

[a fool in paradise]

The Left likes to bring up how he mentioned “nonbelievers” in his Inauguration address. He mentioned Jews, Christians, muslims, and nonbelievers. That is the same worldview that muslims have. People “of the book” and everyone else. Hindus and Buddhists and pagans and Scientologists are lumped together with atheists. Quite insulting actually.

Thanks for the info. I hope we survive this fool.
