Only about 1/4 of the article is here, excerpted due to forum rules re Fox News. Quoted in the article, representing the "optimistic Christians", are the following (and note that three are advisors to Obama):

the Rev. Frank Page, a former president of the Southern Baptist Convention who serves on a month-old advisory board to Obama's White House Office of Faith-Based and Neighborhood Partnerships.

the Rev. Joel Hunter, an evangelical megachurch pastor from Orlando, Fla., and another advisory board member.

Joshua DuBois, director of the faith-based office

Douglas Kmiec, a Pepperdine University law professor, Catholic opponent of abortion and former Reagan administration lawyer

Bishop Charles E. Blake, presiding bishop of the 6 million-member Church of God in Christ, a predominantly black Pentecostal denomination - the only one quoted who said he would "challenge Obama".

Cameron Strang, editor of Relevant Magazine

the Rev. Samuel Rodriguez, president of the National Hispanic Christian Leadership Conference

I’m optimistic that Obama WILL destroy this country.

I shouldn't judge but Christians should never support a politician who has Obama’s track record on abortion.

Christians Optimistic But Disappointed in Obama

Christians are optimistic on Obama?
I do not see how that is possible. How can anyone that claims to be a Christian support a baby killer?
Obama hasmany policy/programs that are counter tobeing a Christianand that directly or indirectly attack Christianity in America......

Heads up to a related article:

Obama Signs Law Banning Federal Embryo Research Two Days After Signing Executive Order to OK It

It was posted here but didn't get much response, I think it was because the title was changed.

This should be an action item. I sent the info out to people I know to tell them to contact their Congresscritters and demand that they continue to support the Dickey-Wicker Amendment.

Anyone who voted for this amateur and is now disappointed is not very bright. Obambi is delivering exactly what he promised, especially on abortion and stem cell research.
