The White House on Monday began "staff-level" meetings and calls with religious leaders to discuss how they could help combat growing anti-Muslim sentiment in the United States.
Valerie Jarrett, senior adviser to President Obama, and Melissa Rogers, who leads the White House Office of Faith-Based and Neighborhood Partnerships, held a conference call with leaders of all religions from across the country.
"Spoke with 890+ religious leaders to thank them for speaking up for every American's right to be free from religious discrimination," Jarrett tweeted on Monday.
Administration officials "routinely" interact with religious leaders, White House spokesman Josh Earnest said on Monday, stressing that the latest round of talks is being led by staff members, not the president.
The call Jarrett led was a "conversation to discuss efforts to combat discrimination and highlight the need for welcoming all faiths and beliefs," Earnest said. "It certainly seems a timely topic for a conversation like that," he said, noting the uptick in anti-Muslim rhetoric since the radical Islamic terrorist group, the so-called Islamic State, launched deadly attacks in Paris and inspired a shooting spree in San Bernardino, Calif.

“Just ignore them folks.”
Turning the cheek is one thing. ValJar, Zero & Co. are probably aware of that famous scripture.
But there’s another that says:
Matthew 18: The Parable of the Unforgiving Servant
21Then Peter came and said to Him, “Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me and I forgive him? Up to seven times?” 22Jesus said to him, “I do not say to you, up to seven times, but up to seventy times seven.
Even Jesus eventually ran out of chewing gum, and so have we. Ignore? I don’t think so.
Wow...didn’t think of that angle. It would solve much for him. He can say he just turned muzzie and that would help with his sharia law goal.
Then they could take that pesky 1st amendment totally away from us.
One more thing. I wear my tinfoil hat shinny side out.
Yet again, us stupid citizens here in flyover country are the “problem”.
And these people cannot figure out why Trump is steamrolling the competition.
I’m wondering why, after that idiot redneck boy in SC killed those people in a church, the WH didn’t express sympathy and support for idiot redneck boys?
When oh when oh when is this enemy within, and all his ass-kissing supporters going to be arrested and charged with treason against America???
The curious irony here is that, in the face of what is alleged to be growing “anti-muslim” sentiment, the White House is doubling down on its support of islam. The irony they are incapable of appreciating is that the same thing is happening with the candidacy of Donald Trump: The more the White House orchestrates anti-Trump sentiment - through their flunkies in the media and Hollywood - the more Trump’s support increases.
If the idiot-in-chief were really the smartest man in the room, he’d recognize this.
'Nuff said.
Obama’s very worried about his pals and his ongoing effort to salt America with terrorist sleeper cells.
Actually, no, she isn't.
IOW, Zero’s regime winds up helping most of the Republican field for 2016.
