I guess Obama’s Pro Abortion policies represent great family values!
What? Oh my word the world sure does miss Brother Rogers.
He needs to step down ASAP.
I’m a Baptist and my family values compared to Obamas as as far about as the east is to the west! I have them, a man who does want his girls burdened with a baby does not have family values.
Those are also some of his his family values.

THE AUDACITY OF TRUTH ABOUT BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA'S UPBRINGING
Do you sometimes get the impression that all large church organizations have been coopted? What is guiding Land’s statements, here?
A very typical instance of false moral equivalence - abortion and infanticide both destroy an innocent, living human being. They are, by their very nature and definition, final, permanent, and irredeemable. The superficial show of “family values” proves nothing - and is nothing, when measured against his character flaws.
This is too hard to believe.
Is it the media misreporting?
What is moral about crushing future generations of our country with debt, confiscating money from earners while giving it to others that didn’t earn it, and taxing businesses into oblivion?
We are in trouble. He may be married and faithful but his rest of his actions are not in synch. What a fool for saying this - what a fool.
So, in the end, will the Catholic Church be the last one standing for moral values????? (that is, those in the church who follow the guidelines?)
He has pointed out many times, Obama's pro-abortion; pro-embryonic stem cell (cloning) "research"; as well as Obama's acceptance of homosexual agenda.
In fact, Land has raised many alarms on the homosexual agenda in America as one that is pulling at our very moral fabric.
Land is convinced that Obama is really anti-America and anti-Constitution.
Where that "reporter" gathered his quote is beyond me but nowhere in Dr. Land's public utterances has he endorsed Obama in any way matter or form.
He may have commented on Obama's apparent devotion to his wife and daughters, in comparison to Gingrich and Guiliani, a fact that we all are very aware of but as to his moral outlook on life, Land is NOT applauding Obama - quite the opposite.
Dr. Land is solidly conservative. I know him personally. This is quote, by its lack of context, is blatant misquote.
folks that run organizations get institutionalized perspectives
what a feel good idgit
how the hell does anyone know Obama is faithful
he has jungle fever white reporters lined up like a Vadim flick
who’s to say he doesn’t indulge?
A model father who wouldn’t want his “daughters punished with a baby” yep real family values.
“But the LORD said to Samuel, “Do not consider his appearance or his height, for I have rejected him. The LORD does not look at the things man looks at. Man looks at the outward appearance, but the LORD looks at the heart.”
1 Samuel 16:7
He’s looking at the slick, magazine package that is always being presented.
It is a sad truth that many churches seek the approval of man rather than God. It is more important to be popular than to be right. God does indeed look at our hearts, and where our hearts are, there is our treasure.

Obama Works to Redefine Role of Faith in First 100 Days
by Dan Gilgoff
U.S. News & World Report
The Southern Baptist Convention’s Richard Land has worked with presidential administrations going back to Ronald Reagan’s, but he can’t remember any that has convened an advisory council composedised (sic) mostly of religious leaders, as President Obama has done. The council gives religion “an institutionally higher profile than under President Bush,” says the conservative Land, who directs public policy for the nation’s largest evangelical denomination. “No president that I’ve dealt with has had anything like it.”
Left-leaning advocacy groups agree, though they tend to be more troubled by a bigger role for religion in the White House. Americans United for Separation of Church and State, for example, is dismayed by how Obama’s faith-based office has operated so far. “Bush’s office completely disregarded the separation of church and state,” says Executive Director Barry Lynn, “and nobody sees any change from that yet.”
In his first 100 days in office, President Obama has sought a bold new role for faith in the White House, which aides say is aimed largely at dialing down the decades-old culture wars. Without changing his party’s liberal stances on social issues like abortion, for example, Obama is nonetheless attempting to reach out to religious conservatives by pledging to work toward reducing demand for abortion. And while acknowledging his party’s own secular base—he went out of his way to mention nonbelievers in his inaugural address—Obama has sought to showcase religion’s expanded role in his White House, opening his rallies with public prayer.
So far, the project has blunted the Christian right’s usual criticism of Democratic administrations, even earning plaudits from some high-profile religious conservatives. But it has also alienated some traditionally Democratic constituencies, from advocates for strict church-state separation to the gay rights movement.
