"The White House wanted a simple backdrop of flags and pipe and drape for the speech, consistent with what they've done for other policy speeches," she wrote.

Then why do it at the University? It was simply a demonstration of power and they fell for it.

The Jesuits are the daddies of liberation theology.

This is no surprise.

I blame them more than 000.

He said "five pillars." If this was Match Game, the next words would be "of Islam": \ In Sunni Islam, the Five Pillars of Islam (Arabic: أركان الإسلام) is the term given to the five duties incumbent on every Muslim. These duties are Shahada (Profession of Faith), Salat (Prayers), Zakat (Giving of Alms), Sawm (Fasting during Ramadan) and Hajj (pilgrimage to Mecca). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Five_Pillars_of_Islam

He wanted a huge painting of Allah looking over him. It was delayed by a US Postal worker taking a break. Next time the messiah’s handlers will use FedX.

The rock he is referring to is the Dome of the Rock or the third holiest site in Islam.

Obama wouldn’t allow any other Messiahs in the room.

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

Catholic universities slumping towards dhiminitude for the Islamist. Pathetic.

(What Obama was really communicating in his speech)

"This town ain't big enough for two Messiahs".

He also said this:

We're also doing away with the unnecessary giveaways that have thrown our tax code out of balance. I said this during the campaign, I'm now saying it as President: We need to stop giving tax breaks to companies that stash profits or ship jobs overseas so we can invest in job creation here at home. And we need to end the tax breaks for the wealthiest 2 percent of Americans, so that people like me, who are extraordinarily lucky, are paying the same rates that the wealthiest 2 percent of Americans paid when Bill Clinton was President.

Read the speech here.

From this thread I posted:

Obama Finally Tells the Truth (If you can read between the lines)

Obama reveals that people are just lucky. That hard work, innovation and intelligence don't matter when it comes to wealth.

A photoshop jockey should take a picture of Obama talking at Georgetown and put 666 where the IHS was covered over.

They covered the name of Jesus. They have denied Christ. It is as simple as that.

They should have told him to go down the street to another college rather than sell their soul for the “honor” of being the site of a presidential speech.

Number one, new rules for Wall Street that will reward drive and innovation, not reckless risk-taking -- (applause);
He offered no specifics, but I think few would argue that Wall Street couldn't use some rule revision, both in corporate governance and with regard to the leveraged products.

number two, new investments in education that will make our workforce more skilled and competitive -- (applause);
That makes sense unless of course you invite foreign countries to partake in the same education, thus creating our competitors. Or unless you give the unions more power while simultaneously maintaining free trade in a way that allows production processes to move overseas. Education isn't going to help you if you continue to do those things. You're just running a free school for foreigners and not helping America.

number three, new investments in renewable energy and technology that will create new jobs and new industries -- (applause);
Invest in renewable energy and technology, but don't bet the farm on it. Make sure that you have enough proven viable energy sources to run this country without OPEC, and invest in renewable energy as well. That means build nuclear and drill.

"number four, new investments in health care that will cut costs for families and businesses;
How exactly are these "investments" going to cut costs? All I've heard so far is more spending.

and number five, new savings in our federal budget that will bring down the debt for future generations. (Applause.)
Where and when? And is that relative to the George Bush budget or the Obama $3.5 Trillion monstrosity?

That is what I said to my Dh when this news broke. If he was trying to prove he isn’t one then everything he does seems to point to that he is one.

Makes me wonder who Obama is.

At the name of Jesus every knee must bend...

Obama is definitely a tool of the one.

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.

This is very very troubling.

Nero failed to stamp out, burn out and kill Christians and thus the name of Jesus — Obama’s a piker compared to the lunacy of Nero.

It is getting so disgusting that I can barely read about this stuff anymore. I feel like I am in an alternate universe or something because truths I have always known are being hidden and debunked and only new falsehoods prevail. The tricks and twists Obama, his administration and the liberals play with words (and now quoting the Bible sans the name of Jesus, God or any religious person) for their own advantabe are getting impossible to unweave. We are truly being held captive by a very narcissistic, evil mind.

Brilliant though some may say he is, Obama never seems to say anything worthwhile that I can gather. Everything is "fluff," nothing of substance. It's like all his speeches are written by advertising men. The college students today (and sadly most Americans who are not at all discerning) don't know the difference between a good speech and a good speaker.

Obama is a good speaker, nothing more. I wish people would see the difference! His words mean nothing, but his delivery is great. He can hypnotize an audience, leave them thinking they heard something wonderful, but there is no real content worth value. It is all hype and trite words. That is all. He is a better actor than anyone in Hollywood!
