Reading Obama’s speech, I noticed his repetitive use of the phrase, “I am my brother’s keeper; I am my sister’s keeper.”

I’m curious as to his meaning and etymology of phrase as he has used it on several occasions on the campaign trail.

A better study of a Christian perspective is found at the below link.

On the topic of “I Am My Brother’s Keeper” by Charles H. Spurgeon.

If he really believed in what he spews out, he certainly would not be saying this. I know he doesn't believe in this. All radical islamists want to kill us all and have this country go back to the 13th century.

Liberals hide behind tolerance like it’s an absolute as long as it benefits them and their allies.

Obama: “It was al Qaeda, a sorry band of men which perverts religion.”

Actually, they weren’t believers of just any religion. They were believers of Islam. AND, they weren’t perverting Islam. Jihad does not call for the peaceful conversion of non-believers. Peaceful Muslims who do not support conquering the world for Islam are the ones who are perverting Islam’s original intent.

This sort of “tolerance,” tolerance of evil, is like how a freezing person gradually “tolerates” the lowering of his body temperature until hypothermia sets in, and the result is always death.

Are we now counting the pigs that killed these innocent Americans among the dead that they killed?

This “reporter” should be keel-hauled.

So is that how the Clintons get Obama out of their way, by greasing his path to the head of the UN and that first Presidency of the World that Bill had once wanted?

He said the U.S. is at war with al Qaeda and its allies, but it "never will be at war with Islam.''

This is the most idiotic formulation I've ever heard. What is Al Qaeda but a variety of Islam, one dedicated to our destruction as "infidels"?

This guy is a putz.

He learned about tolerance and being his brother’s keeper in the Church of the Rev. Jeremiah Wright.

I wish I had a dollar for every person who told me that extreme Islamists are “ignorant” and “need to be educated” as though they are running around in poverty.

But they guys who flew into the towers were all college educated. As were the men who bombed the subways in London. They are all college educated.

Until we can name our enemy accurately, we are helpless.

We gather in a gentle Pennsylvania field, where a plane went down and a “tower of voices” will rise and echo through the ages.

I am not surprised that the Kenyan Clown elects to note the minaret (the "tower of voices") to be erected at the crash site.

Barack Hussein claims to be a Christian— I wish the scales would fall from his eyes and he would see ISLAM is not compatible with Christianity.Wish he would discover what is written how a believer asked God once
I know your eyes are pure—How long will you tolerate evil?
Now that is my memory of the English translation from the ancient Hebrew—but I believe it one of the very few time
tolerance,or anything like it is written of.And God cannot tolerate evil.For hath the light to do with darkness?

Obama may never be at war with Islam, but we should be at war with Islam. We may not be at war with all Muslims, but for theological, political, and moral reasons we should be at war with Islam. I do not expect the government to enter into the religious arena, but the latter two are certainly important. In order to adopt Western democratic ideals and laws, Muslims would have to disassociate themselves from the teachings of the Koran and their traditions.

“Obama Calls for Tolerance”

Absolutely, Barack. We’re with you there!

Tolerance for small businesses.

Tolerance for big businesses.

Tolerance for native American oil.

Corn for the Corn Flakes and Kix, not cars!

Tolerance for the Constitution!

Tolerance truth and honesty!

Tolerance for American exceptionalism.

Tolerance for the history of American freedom-fighting around the world.

Tolerance for the accurate reporting of the history of American support of hurting and hungry people everywhere for the last 60 years!

Yes, Barack, TOLERANCE!!!

You haven’t shown us any.

Except tolerance for shady deals, lies, subterfuge, theft, Communism, and destruction of America. Worst of all, you tolerate Nancy Pelosi!
