Joe Scarborough: If You Question Obama's Faith, You're a 'Hater'
NewsBusters ^ | SEPTEMBER 27, 2010 | Matt Hadro

Posted on 09/29/2010 10:05:29 PM PDT by RobinMasters

Apparently everyone needs to take the President at his word when he says he is a committed Christian, according to MSNBC. The network's "Morning Joe" crew thinks that those who still question the sincerity of President Obama's faith are "haters" and "knuckleheads."

During a townhall meeting at a New Mexico residence, President Obama proclaimed that he was a "Christian by choice." He said that he came to the faith recently, believing that the Christian precepts of "being my brother's and sister's keeper" and "treating others as they would treat me" defined the kind of life he wanted to live.

In lieu of the quote, Scarborough referenced his own Southern Baptist roots and asserted that Obama is without a doubt a Christian. "When he says things like 'Jesus died for my sins. I'm saved by God's salvation,' that's about as definitive as you can get," he claimed. "At this point, if jackasses out there question his faith, they're just haters."

Scarborough even went so far as to say that to be Christian is to accept Obama at his word.

I question his faith Joe, sue me. Nobody who supports infanticide can call themselves a Christian, its that simple.

Did anyone actually ever consider this arrogant know-nothing to be a conservative?

“The tingle” has gotten a grip on Joe. Now he’s perfect for PMSNBC.

All he has to do to show he’s actually a Christian is produce his baptismal certificate. That’s not so hard, is it?

God will judge his faith.

But as for the rest of us, we all know, he’s a lousy president.

No, I hate Joe and his ilk far more....because they enabled an anti-American man into the US Presidency, and now protect him while he is destroying us.

Having one doesn’t prove that someone is a Christian.
I don’t have one but that doesn’t mean anything either.

You are being unfair. The word “tool” implies something useful - you should apologize to the tools for lumping them in with Scarborough.

Is Scarborough lying through his teeth?? Who among us has ever heard Obamas utter the word Jesus, let alone say he was saved by God's salvation.

He came to his faith recently? What does that mean exactly? All those 20 years at the Rev. Wright's church was for what then????? Hey Joe, you are a complete and utter fool to believe a single word that comes out of the mouth of OBOZO the CLOWN.

Obozo’s lied about so many other things that I don’t credit a word he says about anything.

If he suddenly announced that he believes in Muhammed as Allah’s true messenger I don’t think I’d accept that he believes that either!

I think his narcissism is such that he is his own God, and everything else is just more words to prop up that “faith”....

Joe Scarborough is my enemy because he is the enemy of “truth telling” for his own personal profit!

Joe is a liar just as much as The Usurper!

Exactly. And as far as the “brother’s keeper” (”sister” appears nowhere), that is NOT a Christian precept- it’s part of a smart-ass remark made by a man who just murdered his own brother. Obama is an IDIOT. Intelligent people see right through his phony facade.

Joe Scare-Bro is a leftist tool. Sold his soul for fame and it’s marginal fame at that.

I don't know if you intended that to be funny, but it is absolutely hilarious.
