Kirsten Powers and other panelists on the FOX News program “Outnumbered” were discussing Obama’s newly discovered concern for Christians in the middle east and things got a little heated.
Powers, who is a liberal and frequent defender of Obama, was one of the most vocal critics.
Tim Cavanaugh of National Review has the details:
…Kirsten Powers, usually the most liberal of the panelists, tore the president a new one:
“He has not uttered the word ‘Christian,’ and now suddenly he throws it in with the Yazidis,” Powers said. “We’re not doing any airdrops to the Christians, who are refugees in the Kurdish region. [Virginia Congressman Frank] Wolf has taken to the floor, I think, seven days in a row now, pleading with the administration: Please help these people. They need humanitarian aid; they need drinking water. They have nothing. They’ve lost their homes; they’ve lost everything.
The White House has done nothing; they’ve said nothing. And then the president goes on and goes into quite a lot of detail about the Yazidis, and never really gets into the specifics about Christians. I mean, it’s really unbelievable, and he has no right to invoke humantiarianism, because he is not a humanitarian president. A humanitarian president does not sit quietly by, while hundreds of thousands of Christians in Iraq [are uprooted or killed]– forget about the rest of the Middle East — and doesn’t say a word.”
Here’s the video (jump ahead to 2:00 for her comments):

an = any
Hussein is more concerned about saving the sect which worships a fallen arch-angel.
If the Christians were on the mountain top, the Obama Administration would condemn them if they defended themselves.
That is known in our country as the "Democrat Party."
Excellent!
Dumb as a post politically.
Obummer thinks he is a Roman Emperor.
Did’nt the Romans threw Christians in the Lion’s den?
Someone said she started taking IQ pills....
There is no Christian in the Whtie house.
And that fallen arch-angel is a peacock! I always thought peacocks represented the Resurrection — sort of like the Phoenix. Go figure.
How can anyone doubt who King Obama is. He is a communists black Muslim traitor. He is responsible for thousands of Christians death because of his radical Muslim friends. He is a terrorists.
I’m hopeful that she will understand in time that the people who support infanticide are the same people who couldn’t care less about the slaughter of Christians.
I did find it strange that he mentioned the “Yazidis”. Who? I’m all for helping those people, but I always have been, back when all we were hearing was about Christians being CRUCIFIED! Not one thousand years ago, but NOW, in the age of the internet. We don’t need to ‘spice up’ the reasons to send aid and defense.
You hit that nail on the head.
Agreed. When did Kirsten Powers become a political icon? What is she 13 years old? Here’s how much good sense she has, she dated Carlos Danger for God’s sake.
Kirstin is such a FOOL.

Even the name Obama makes me want to throw up.
Genocide has been happening to Christians for several months and he has done nothing.
When his buddies murder Christians and Jews, he’s silent. When ROP’ers kill other ROP’ers, he’s on the phone in a minute.
