Did the loon learn anything in college?
I’m beginning to suspect that he really is as dumb as he speaks.
Nah, I don’t suspect it at all...I know.
He’s a Muslim thats why he’s distancing himself from these traditions without coming out and fully admitting it. I’m sure his handler in Saudi Arabia gets it tho.
The church contains in full the kindness and cruelty, the fierce intelligence and the shocking ignorance, the struggles and successes, the love and yes, the bitterness and bias that make up the black experience in America.
And this helps explain, perhaps, my relationship with Rev. Wright. As imperfect as he may be, he has been like family to me. He strengthened my faith, officiated my wedding, and baptized my children.
Not once in my conversations with him have I heard him talk about any ethnic group in derogatory terms, or treat whites with whom he interacted with anything but courtesy and respect. He contains within him the contradictions -- the good and the bad -- of the community that he has served diligently for so many years.
I can no more disown him than I can disown the black community. I can no more disown him than I can my white grandmother -- a woman who helped raise me, a woman who sacrificed again and again for me, a woman who loves me as much as she loves anything in this world."
-Barack Hussein Obama
Christos Anesti!
Obama is a sick individual and needs a serious mind adjustment.
Amen brother.
speaking of starvation...
Check out the Obama pic at the top of Drudge - he looks skeletal...
The same Jefferson who penned our Declaration of Independence wrote that Jesus "preached philanthropy and universal charity and benevolence," that "a system of morals is presented to us [by Jesus], which, if filled up in the style and spirit of the rich fragments he left us, would be the most perfect and sublime that has ever been taught by man."
He wrote, "His moral doctrines...were more pure and perfect than those of the most correct of the philosophers...and they went far beyond both in inculcating universal philanthropy, not only to kindred and friends, to neighbors and countrymen, but to all mankind, gathering all into one family, under the bonds of love, charity, peace, common wants, and common aids" which, Jefferson said, "will evince the peculiar superiority of the system of Jesus over all others."
Comparing the Hebrew code which, according to Jefferson, "laid hold of actions only," "He [Jesus] pushed his scrutinies into the heart of man; erected his tribunal in the region of his thoughts, and purified the waters at the fountain head."
That Jefferson cut out the statements which could be directly attributable to Jesus, pasted them into a little book which he kept by his bed and read from them daily, attests to the fact that his political philosphy may have been influenced by what he considered to be the superiority of the "philosophy" of Jesus.
It is unlikely that any person alive today, including the current President, has read the writings of as many of the great philosophers as Jefferson. His talents and abilities were legend. His devotion to liberty and to the ideas essential to liberty were based on simple principles, some of which, undoubtedly, came from his understanding of the basic law underlying all valid human law: "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you." As Jefferson stated it, "No man has a natural right to commit aggression on the equal rights of another; and this is all from which the laws ought to restrain him."
Jefferson seemed to understand that the philosophy capsulated in those ideas has the power to make people in a society more benevolent, more loving, more caring, and more willing to take care of each other voluntarily.
There is a sharp contrast between a philosophy of love and the politics of hate which motivate the radical Islamic terrorists, as well as the radical Left which now spouts its personal hatred in our partisan politics.
He looks outright scary imho.
Obama’s religion is Obama...
Kevin... YOUR president is a muzzie... it makes sense now does it not?

President Obama believes that there is little difference in the faiths that people hold.
9-11 didn’t do much for him I guess.
“did the loon learn anything in college?”
There is no solid evidence that the Bozo loon ever attended college. He was an affirmative action selection and this precluded him doing anything to get a “wall paper degree”.
During that time in his life smoking weed and tossing back MD-20 20 was the extent of his talent.
I thought that the tickets for the Easter Egg hunt were only distributed to public school kids. That private school and homeschool kids were not eligible to receive them.
Where is it that his daughters go to school again?
Obama said he attended Rev. Wright’s church faithfully “every Sunday.”
Yet in an interview on WLS-Radio his biographer from the Washington Post said the “dirty little secret is Obama NEVER attended” and all the reporters knew it (and didn’t call him on it).
We have a secular President that is why he doesn’t go to church. He is just too dishonest to admit it. He is too worried about his image.
Remember, this is the man who complained about the price of arugula at Whole Foods to a bunch of small town Iowans.
Actually, I would slightly beg to differ.. apparently he attended some black Methodist church for Easter. Dunno if he only stayed for the free bread/wine and egg hunt :p
