Covering up the Real Rock at Georgetown (What Obama was really communicating in his speech)

Insight Scoop ^ | April 16, 2009 | Carl Olson

Obama is a moron.

"Georgetown University says it covered over the monogram “IHS”--symbolizing the name of Jesus Christ—because it was inscribed on a pediment on the stage where President Obama spoke at the university on Tuesday and the White House had asked Georgetown to cover up all signs and symbols there. As of Wednesday afternoon, the “IHS” monogram that had previously adorned the stage at Georgetown’s Gaston Hall was still covered up--when the pediment where it had appeared was photographed by CNSNews.com. “In coordinating the logistical arrangements for yesterday’s event, Georgetown honored the White House staff’s request to cover all of the Georgetown University signage and symbols behind Gaston Hall stage,” Julie Green Bataille, associate vice president for communications at Georgetown, told CNSNews.com. "

The agenda is becoming clearer.

Why is it still covered up? You can hardly see it in the photos where Laura Bush was speaking.

Someone did that yesterday on on of the FR threads.

[Hatteras]

I think the idea is to minimize any subliminal content in subsequent news photos...

“Jesus said “Render unto Caesar that which is Caesar’s and render unto God that which is God. For your convenience I will serve as both.” - Barack Obama/sarc

"I don’t mean to imply he is currently a Muslim, but more and more I wonder when he pulls these stunts."

Let's see now,

Muslim father?

Muslim step-father?

Educated in a Madrassa?

Changed his name to a Muslim name as an adult?

Attended a church (for 20 years) that welcomes Muslims?

Can (and does) recite the Shahada in perfect Arabic?

Has stated that in times of political turmoil he would side with the Muslims?

Has stated that the USA is no longer a Christian nation?

Bowed in fealty to a Muslim king?

No, I don't think that you have to imply anything.

"It is more for camera quality than anything else," he surmised. "They don't want distractions that would make the eye wander. I don't think this is motivated by theology, but by communications strategy."

Of course, one might hesitate to call this man a liar, but the alternative would be to accept this clearly ridiculous statement as fact.

[HowlinglyMind-BendingAbsurdity]

"All of which begs a simple question: upon what, exactly, is Georgetown built? And who, exactly, does it serve? And for what end?"

That's becoming clearer too.

You can read Prof. Carroll Quigley's 1967 autopsy and account of the liberal Harvard secularization model for Catholic colleges published in The Hoya here:

"Is Georgetown University Committing Suicide?" by Prof. Carroll Quigley, 1967

He wants to divide the Catholic church between real catholics and those who claim to be catholic but follow few of the church’s teachings. He is using social justice to drive a wedge into the church. So far, he was been very successful. Several of my priests, who are very good men, are willing to give Obama a pass on abortion because they believe he will further the cause of social justice.

I only found about the Five Pillars comment from reading this thread... was doing taxes and other stuff during Georgetown speech (plus cant stand to listen to him). It may be as another site has said, it is just a sly wink to Islam, that the left believes we must cater to them and so he does so. It is incredibly bizarre though after his 1st interview with Arab station, bowing to Saudi King now this...

"Several of my priests, who are very good men, are willing to give Obama a pass on abortion..."

You wanna think about that statement again?

[Campion]

Catholic universities

"CINO universities" would be more like it. The real Catholic schools -- Dallas, Steubenville, TAC, Benedictine, etc. -- want nothing to do with him.

[PghBaldy]

I know secularists that say things about Islam just to prove how wonderful they are- it is especially funny considering most of my friends are gay and or liberal... There is a madness in this country (and Europe) where the left caters to Islam and condemns Christianity. The only thing comparable is the left’s siding with commie dictators over the years- much of it is a ploy to diss Western Civilization.

[Campion]

You might ask them what kind of “social justice” permits or excuses killing healthy babies in the third trimester of pregnancy ... because Obama’s HHS secretary got a lot of her political clout by defending a man who does exactly that.

[PghBaldy]

Oh- 1st interview as Prez was with an Muslim news service (Al Arabiya).

[the invisib1e hand]

Obama is a moron.

On his good days.

[shibumi]

I only had time to point out a few of the feathers on the duck.

[navyblue]

If they stiffed Jesus in favor of the O, doesn’t that say something about the First Commandment? Just wonderin.

[tioga]

you nailed that one.....and it’s very telling what they did do....deny the Lord their God before the world.

[Antoninus]

Georgetown must know that removing the name of Christ for expediency bodes badly for them. Too many martyrs have died for their right to display His name.

Jesuits like have been martyred for making the sign of the cross.

The Jesuits are Georgetown aren't even Catholics.
