WASHINGTON -- President Barack Obama on Friday forcefully endorsed building a mosque near ground zero, saying the country's founding principles demanded no less. "As a citizen, and as president, I believe that Muslims have the same right to practice their religion as anyone else in this country," Obama said, weighing in for the first time on a controversy that has riven New York and the nation. "That includes the right to build a place of worship and a community center on private property in lower Manhattan, in accordance with local laws and ordinances," he said. "This is America, and our commitment to religious freedom must be unshakable."

Yep, and that is not one of them.
Thomas Jefferson was a Freemason and the man whose picture moved to the center of the Obama photo op was one of his favorite architects.
I have no idea what Freemasons do or dont do.
I just find it interesting . Especially that photo of a young Obama with a G in the middle of the photo..one many think is photoshopped.
And if he is a freemason, how does that square with being a Muslim lover.
Of course, Freemasons during Jefferson’s time might not be the same as today.
Yeah, OTPbama had similar wonderful words to say about Christianity on the National Day of Prayer and at Easter too, didn’t he? Right?? Beuller?? Anyone??????
“I will not know whether I am ready until the first bullet whistles past my head... then I shall truly know who I am and what stuff I am made of.”
You are counting on the shooter missing.

I have discussed this possibility with friends who have union contacts in NYC... I hope and pray they follow through. Otherwise other less desirable alternate options will become necessary. No matter, this effrontery will not be allowed to stand, whatever the consequences.
There are entered apprentice, second degree, and third degree, and up. In order to become a shriner, one must first be a 3rd degree mason. Do you think the Shriners are behind Obama and the destruction of America?
Why have you hijacked this thread with non-sense about freemasons?

I count on nothing, for nothing is certain in war. I am certain of my own mortality, as is the man shooting at me. Perhaps he will miss, perhaps not. My time will come when it is marked... How I exit this life is not so much important as how I choose to live it. All men must one day die.
What a fornicating moron is he.
Odd... How many times have I heard of "the right to worship" from the lips of 0zero YET now he evokes the "right to practice" when referring to a muslim initiative...
He chooses his words quite deliberately -in this statement, in my opinion, is some insight as to his true allegiances...
“I have no idea what Freemasons do or dont do.”
Based on your posts, I knew that all along. Here’s a hint, Free Masons don’t support the destruction of America. They defend America, her values, and her legacy. And while there are some famous figures in our history who were Free Masons, Free Masons are not a political body. It is brotherhood of free men. And yes, they like being free.
On this you can rely, Obama is not a Free Mason. Since if he were, he would be defending America, and not trying to destroy her.
Now, can we get back to the subject of the thread? Obama is a muslim who supports the Cardoba House. A monument for muslims to gloat over 911?
A very important distinction, yet its subtlety escapes most. To worship is understood a private act; but to practice one’s religion speaks of a public act. This is very telling, for it reveals the objective to silence all public display of religion, and specifically the Christian faith, while giving heed to a creed that is at once alien, subversive and hostile to America and Christianity in particular.
IN LOWER MANHATTAN!
WEASEL WORDS
Of all the rooms in the White House..and all the paintings and photos and memorabilia..why swear his oath of office in front of an 1804 painting of an architect who was a Freemason..and painting that had been moved front and center above the fireplace from where it had been in 2008?
In the second photo, note that BO’s left arm is straight. His hand is not resting on anything: not a book, not a table, not anything.
Thank you and yes he was. I wished Hannity would have saved the 22 year old wizard of econ for and extension of this man’s testimony.
