White House aghast over 'secret Muslim' poll
NY Post ^ | 20 Aug 10 | AMBER SUTHERLAND and CARL CAMPANILE

Posted on 08/20/2010 8:51:40 AM PDT by SkyPilot

The White House was forced yesterday to reaffirm President Obama's Christian faith after shocking polls found that 1 out of every 4 or 5 Americans falsely believe he's a Muslim -- a considerable increase from last year.

"The president is obviously a Christian. He prays every day," White House spokesman Bill Burton told reporters.

"He communicates with his religious adviser every single day. There's a group of pastors that he takes counsel from on a regular basis. And his faith is very important to him, but it's not something that is a topic of conversation every single day."

A separate White House statement stressed that Obama's "strong Christian faith is what guides him" in facing the nation's challenges. "But he doesn't wear it on his sleeve," the press office added.

The president's flacks also complained that Obama's faith is "often maligned and distorted by critics."

That church that screams “God damn America?”

That would be different than any Mosque, how?

Reverend Wright is, if not in fact a crypto-Muslim, at the very least an anti-American Muslim sympathizer. Which slots him and his $25K-contributing parishioner into the very same rat hole.

Reverend Wright stated in one of his interviews that Trinity was a good place for former gang members and apostate Muslims because they believe that the only sin that a Black person can be guilty of is to fail to rebel against the White capitalist oppressors.

Sniplet:

El Salvador has officially joined the Red regimes of Cuba, Venezuela, Nicaragua, Ecuador and Bolivia. South America is turning Red, dark Red, and little is being said to alert North Americans of the encroaching Red plague. Perhaps that’s because North America is moving in the same direction. The president of the United States has surrounded himself with socialists, and some of those closest to him have had a part in turning South America Red...

A real Christian would never attend a church with a pastor like Jeremiah Wright.
A real Christian would NEVER support a bill that allowed newborns that survived abortions to die from exposure/starvation...
Barak Hussein Obama is ANTI-CHRISTIAN, and quite possibly muslim...

As one famous Liberal noted:

“his [alleged Christian] faith is very important to him, but it’s not something that is a topic of conversation every single day.”

As opposed to his DAILY public praise, promotion, protection, and proffering of Islam and its manifestations. Only thing missing is his public prayers - adhering to either religion.

Ask him who Abraham’s heir was. Few devious believers of any Abraham-derived religion would be clever enough to hedge the answer to conceal their true faith. A Christian would not hesitate to say “Isaac”; a Muslim would not hesitate to say “Ishmael” ... and that answer makes all the difference.

Wasn’t there some kerfluffle when he visited Georgerown University, IIRC, and insisted that a cross or a representation of Jesus or some Christian symbol be covered up? What Christian would take offense to a symbol of Christianity?

Actually, people think the Wee Wee is a lot of things

Google's computers have grown much smarter than its management. Not only do they know what Obama is, they also know exactly where to find an empty suit.

Thanks for the pics. . .each worth more than a 'thousand words'. Meantime, the WH cannot avoid 'stepping in it' re this "The president is obviously a Christian" and he "prays every day," response. It is 'dirt in the making' - the kind they usually try to arrange for their opponents to step in. This time, it is 'they' who are trying to clean their shoes off.

So, they are now, caught, 'protesting too much' and looking even more stupid and guilty for doing so.

As to the excuses:

"The president is obviously a Christian. He prays every day," . . .this seems an insult to Muslims; what do 'they' do. . .eat chopped cous-cous and call it prayer? And how do they know Obama is praying - does he pray 'on the job' or in privacy of his home quarters and he just reports that he has been praying. . .

They had better be careful; or there will be charges that Obama is violating separation of church/state per his religious activities when 'on the job' in White House. Which we can imagine, with his Muslim 'ties'; he most likely is. . .

As to Reggie Love; seem a huge story, right under MSM noses; and yet. . .like Prez.Bill; he is protected. Maybe Drudge will drop the big one, someday. . .before they drop him, that is - from 'net prominance'.

Wonder how many Muslims think that Obama is one of them?

If he is a Christian, why doesn’t he publicly acknowledge that Islam is a false religion? Jesus Christ said, “I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life, and no man comes to God but by Me.” If this is true and Mr. President believes it, why does he deny it by his actions and words? According to the Apostle John, Mr. President denies it because he is “a liar and the truth is not in him.” You cannot be a Christian and believe that there is any other way to get to God! That’s Bible!

He also had no representative of the Catholic Church at the Inauguration.

No Christian mocks the Bible, denounces Christians,
denies a “God and Country”, flyover as Obama has.
The masses have awakened to Obama’s lies and radicalism.

"The president is obviously a Christian. He prays every day,"

Muslims pray every day. Does that mean they're obviously Christians too?

The more they try to tell he isn’t a Muslim, the more I don’t believe them.

what? he isn't a member of a Church? and he doens’t go to Church on Sundays?

IIRC, he's gone to St. John's across the street from the WH on Easter once, but I could be wrong (sorry, I don't follow the man's every move). If he is a Christian then he's a CEO (Christmas and Easter Only).
