"It means all the world to us to know that there are prayer circles out there and people who are keeping the spirits clean around us," First Lady Michelle Obama said on the "Tom Joyner Morning Show" today.

Ping. I just thought you may want to know about this one?
Are clean spirits an islamic thing?
Im sorry to sound so sarcastic about this particular subject, but since when is their base so religious they would do prayer circles for them? I wish it was, but I really find this difficult to believe.
Excellent point. Thier god is Government through power, control and greed.
Who ya gonn' call??
I’m glad everyone else agrees, because I’ve never heard “keeping the spirits clean” before. Wierd.
*************
Is this a Kenyan ritual??
I'm so confused....
I wasn’t sure about the Santeria thing, it was just the one article (that I saw) but now I am sure it’s true.
I’ve never heard anyone I know or read anyone saying stuff about “clean spirits” other than reading about voodoo or or wicca/witchcraft stuff.
Un-freaking-believable! The White House will needs massive cleaning when they leave, plus it will reek of cigarette smoke.
There are hundreds of thousands of Christians who are praying for the safety of our nation each day. None of them are praying for “clean spirits” around the Obamas...most peculiar.
These people are demented.
“keeping the spirits clean around us”
What does that mean - that she likes clean demons?
It will reek of more than that.
I see a Teleprompter real soon in Michelle’s future!
Another transparent appeal to the black voter. Evangelical Christians — pretty much the only other group that Moochelle might want to be impressed by this crapola — have no use for the only member of the US Senate to vote to kill babies who survive abortion.
Uh. Clean spirits.
And Democrats accuse others of witchcraft.
I agree with both of you-Michelle MaBelle is just babbling New Age gobbledygook. Between the two of them, they may as well be from Mars as far as their comprehension of the beliefs and culture of average American citizens is concerned. They obviously don’t know that when you find yourself over your head in a hole, STOP DIGGING!
Prayer circles on prayer rugs facing mecca... huh b!tch?!

A quick search did show lots of references between Voodoo and cleansing of spirits. I thought it was in a Christian church hymn as well, but that is “Create in me a clean Heart”. Although I imagine there are references in the Bible to folks with a clean spirit.
Thanks. I don’t know anything about Santeria & really don’t care about knowing anything but a definition.
You rang?
