Obama's prayer breakfast with a side of Christian guilt.
Posted by LetsShrug 10 years, 3 months ago to Government
Unless we get on our high horse and think that this is unique to some other place, remember that during the Crusades and Inquisition, people committed terrible deeds in the name of Christ," Obama said. "In our home country, slavery and Jim Crow all too often was justified in the name of Christ."

Later I was awakened by what I thought was a park ranger's flashlight.
It was a rising full moon that was so bright I had to cover my face with something to get back to sleep.
Later after that my brother awoke me with a hard shake and whispered, "Something is up there!"
Yeah, now it got scary. Something up atop a sharp rise was clomping around. A couple of small rocks came bouncing down.
Then I saw what looked a pair of devil horns on high. What was that--THING.!!!
Those horns turned out to be long ears when that thing went, "Hee-haw!"
It was a wild burro.
Oh, before the sun went down during that camping adventure, a pair of desert skunks walked through our camp as if my brother and I amounted to absolutely nothing.
They did not look like Alabama "polecat" skunks
but those two critters were definitely skunks.
And they knew it.
CORRECTION: I meant to say Libya, of course.
Back in 1973, a brother and I were illegally camping by the Rio Grande River at Big Bend State Park in Texas. (Legal was crap unless you had a camper).
Some Mexican kid I couldn't see in what I up until then perceived to be only desert country across the river yells, "Hi, gringo!"
I simply yelled back "Hi!"
I found the whole thing amusing.
To camp by the Rio Grande today? No way, Jose!
My memory rattles on--
Back in the late 80s I was searching a cell shared by two inmates.
While doing so, I told them that inmates had called me everything but a "dirty screw" like in the old prison movies.
I told them I'd just love it if an inmate would call me that just one time.
They just stared at me. I think they were scared.
That was disappointing. I wasn't trying to trick them into being written up or anything.
I never brought that subject up again.
He says we "are summoned to push back against those who would distort our religion for their nihilistic ends." He is quick to point out he's not being self-righteous or saying his religion has always bee perfect while being firm in condemning extremists as a "death cult."
He expresses my view perfectly and reaches out to moderates, the vast majority of the world, who want to live in peace.
Oh, good grief, why didn’t Obama mentioned how we use to burn witches in Salem? There’s some white-guilt for ya.
This was my attempt to tweak LS's nose a bit on her continued use of verbiage that she knows is offensive to some. Just as I wouldn't use the N-word, or kike (funny how the N-word has such a connotation to it that we cannot even use it in reference, but derogatory terms for others is accepted), or slant-eye, or even gringo (also funny how so many non-Hispanics don't understand that is a derogatory term) just out of politeness, it seems that the atheists here (and everywhere, it seems) have no such reluctance to show their impoliteness merely because they don't agree with others. I choose to be polite.
I don’t need any more prove. Obama, or at least, his speech writer is a traitor.
The void we created has now been filled by ISIS....
I shudder to think what Obama's next pratfall will be.
Sock it to me! Sock it to me!
