(I became aware of the cover-up after the speech, when it was pointed out by pro-life advocate Larry Cirignano in an e-mail forwarded to me. Whether Georgetown University initiated it or did it at the request of the White House is unknown at this time.)

Catholic ping!

Blasphemy. It gets close to the “Obamanation of Desolation.”

[livius]

Is there a one-shot “after?” I couldn’t bear to listen to His Fascist Ugliness in the video, so I never saw whatever it was that had been done.

[reaganaut]

Wow. “Yo’mamma”’s blasphemy is just amazing.

I am willing to bet, however, that the WH will spin this (if anyone picks it up) as they painted over it so no one would think the IHS was about Obama.

[NYer]

No, Jesus' very name, in the form of the ancient monogram IHS, which had been in gold lettering on the wooden archway above Gaston Hall's dais, was painted over prior to Obama's arrival.

The University should be stipped of its status as a Catholic insitution ... period.

"AFTER" photo with a bit more perspective - also shows that they put up a blue backdrop to hide the gorgeous backdrop of this architectural gem of a lecture hall:

All I can keep praying is that God is watching this man very closely and protecting the religious, God loving, faithful believers in this country who are forced to endure him as our president.

However, I do wonder, in this instance...if taking the IHS from the structure that peers above the blue backdrop might have been a good idea. Had it not been done it might have looked as though it was placed over Obama's head and so that it would not offend the Catholics had it seemed to refer to Obama under it, the college decided to remove it for his speech.

But why he gave that speech there in the first place is my gripe. Why not from his own darn office? Does he know where that is yet?

It doesn't look like it was painted over. From the pictures it looks like there is a fitted piece of fabric over it.

Two alternate explanaitons:

1. The have a piece of fitted fabric prepared for certain stage setups of the hall. Obama's visit fit that setup criteria.

2. The school didn't want a "light from heaven" moment by giving anyone the chance to take a picture with Obama standing at the lecturn and the title of Christ seemingly referring to him.

Of course, the most likely scenario is that Georgetown hasn't been a Catholic school in the purest sense for a long time and has become part and parcel of the liberal universities in America. The school didn't want to offend anyone with offensive religious imagery from the offensive belief in Jesus Christ.

Georgetown Says It Covered Over Name of Jesus to Comply With White House Request

[superdad]

They claim to know God, but by their actions they deny him. They are detestable, disobedient and unfit for doing anything good. Titus 1:16

[wilco200]

Georgetown allowed this to happen for one simple reason.

It;s a reason I think missed by many and part of the diabolical genius of the socialist marketing campaign.

Georgetown would have never done this for Clinton or any other Dem.

The simple truth is that Obama is black. White people is this country are running scared they refuse to say anything negative out of fear of being branded a racist. — meanwhile the country is being destroyed and everything American citizens hold dear is being destroyed.

Until get the stones to stand up for what is right and ignore or laugh at accusations of racism this country is on the road to destruction

It surprises me that no one has pointed out that, during his extended use the Sermon on the Mount’s image of building a “house upon a rock,” Pres. O inserts a very, very Islamic notion of “five pillars”:

“It was founded upon a rock. We cannot rebuild this economy on the same pile of sand. We must build our house upon a rock. We must lay a new foundation for growth and prosperity — a foundation that will move us from an era of borrow and spend to one where we save and invest; where we consume less at home and send more exports abroad.

It’s a foundation built upon ***five pillars*** that will grow our economy and make this new century another American century: Number one, new rules for Wall Street that will reward drive and innovation, not reckless risk-taking — (applause)...”

Great job!!

[prophetic]

Quite simply, this FALSE MESSIAH clearly could not share the same stage with the One True MESSIAH.

So the FALSE MESSIAH simply had the mindless peons at the school cover the Title IHS and all is well (or so it would seem).

I'd say this much - the school is in deep crap with Heaven for allowing this since the Bible clearly states that "Whoever denies Me, him will I deny before the Father" Matt 10:33

Also as we've seen how God seems to delight in mocking those Global Warming jokers, whereas almost every time they have a public Global Warming meeting/protest it almost invariably rains, snows or something to mock their message.

It makes me wonder what God has lined up for 0Bama especially for dissing HIS NAME!!

Pass the popcorn 'cause I figure that the recent bee's incident at the White House is a very tiny warning from above.....

[uncitizen]

Was Jesus’ name really painted over? I’d heard it was “covered up” with some fabric.
