WASHINGTON – President Barack Obama is exhorting a Florida minister to "listen to those better angels" and call off his plan to engage in a Quran-burning protest this weekend.
Obama told ABC's "Good Morning America" in an interview aired Thursday that he hopes the Rev. Terry Jones of Florida listens to the pleas of people who have asked him to call off the plan. The president called it a "stunt."

Why does this asshat keep stepping into issues a President should ignore?
I posted this previously, on a different thread, but am looking to hear what anyone might think? I’m just trying to piece things together.
So, This just occurred to me. What if Rahm “Never Let a Crisis go to waste” implores someone to use this as the means to have the administration institute a false flag attack, thereby blaming it on this church, and “radical christianity.” (Not that I necessarilly agree with the pastor’s decision, I’m just wondering what else could this be used for?)
Stay safe everyone.
This is what I read, given it's from TPM, which is not my favorite source. They don't tend to just make things up out of whole cloth though, so I give it enough credence to make mention of it with a caveat.

Personally I would like to see him burn it. Just to see if muslims will riot as usual or if this whole thing will just blow over.
I`am sick that we all have to cave in to muslim sensitivities. At my school we have to different rooms. We had one that was for all religions and beliefs. Called a quiet room. But muslims of course had to have their own prayer room. I am a bit offended by that. They can use the quiet room. But that is not good enough for them of course. Sometimes we have to put our food down and say no more.

Thats is what is making me more and more angry,
Is Islam now our national religion?
Oh wait,
Why yes, yes it is, our dear leader is Muslim.
My thoughts exactly, but I go a little further and say the bad guys on your list don’t deserve to live and the world would be much better off without them. I sincerely value dogs, pigs, and other animals lives far above theirs.
As a distraction from his ongoing destruction of the USofA?
>>No wonder 1/4 of the people think he is a muslim.<<
With that Imam asking Obama to be the Caliph of all of Islam you can be assured that the Muslim world knows what religion he is. I’m thinking with that information more people will begin to know that he is a Muslim.
Thx
Obowmao implores (his old) pastor to stop cursing America.
>>Would Jesus wish harm on others?<<
Have you not read the end of the Book? How about Ezek 39-39? Maybe Joshua at Jericho? Sodom and Gamorah? The world with Noah in the Ark?
Yup, teenage boys in a pi**ing contest. We are devolving by the day.
Now that I've learned that Dove Church is affiliated with the Westboro Churchs' (Phelps and litigious family) atrocities outside the services of fallen military, I no longer support the Dove Church.
Not because I wouldn't like to see every Qur'an and Hadith burned in pig fat, but because Dove Church are not true patriots since they support Phelps. Phelps is the most despicable scum of a man (in my opinion) and his absurd family/followers that hold signs outside of military services/funerals that say, "Thank God For Dead Soldiers"; "Soldiers Die: God Laughs"; "God Hates Fags"; "God Hates America"; and more are beyond obscene. So goes he - so goes Dove Church.
Disclaimer: I am a dues paying member of the Patriot Guard Riders that was organized to counter the obscene protests of Westboro Church at military services. They started by turning their bikes around at the Westboro scum and revving their pipes to drown them out.
It grew nation-wide, and we continue to honor our fallen; our injured; and any Veteran, whether combat or not. The family must request it - we don't show up otherwise. I've been to a few. Imagine some 20-100 bikers (mostly Vets) showing up and doing an Honor Guard while following the hearse or simply attending the memorial service. It's a choke moment.
announce withdrawl dates....no problem
kook burns sacred qurans.....BIG PROBLEM ! ! ! troops endangered, call in the telepromter, hold a press conference ! ! ! the sky is falling, appease the muzzies !!!!
Oh yeah?! Well, I’ll implore Obama to call of his destruction of America.
This is just a touchy-feely, feel-good, symbolic gesture that liberals do all the time.
These kinds of acts make liberals feel good, and enables them to say they did something, but it doesn't accomplish anything meaningful.
Well, khalif.. I guess you just have to declare sharia a little earlier than planned...
Then why are there so many people, including many here on FR, that agree with him on this issue?
