Obama Just Compared Christianity With Islam…At National Prayer Breakfast

[Shipwreck]

Obama is an idiot. He will be on Jimmy Kimmel doing a tap dance next week. God I hate that stupid fuck!

 

[S.J.]

In our pathetic president's attempt to defend terrorists, he had to go back 1,000 years to try to make murdering muslims look less barbaric by drawing a bogus comparison to the crusades. What's even more despicable are the butt licking sycophants on this forum who stoop to the gutter to defend his disgusting ass. They have no shame.

I'm sure that the next time ol' Guno posts one of his anti-Christian threads, the PC Police here will jump all over him, saying "oh no, it's not Christianity, it's ALL religions!"

Right?

When I hear Obama slam us here in America, I wonder how he got through the alley's of Chicago unscathed.

Yeah, American liberals will all rush in and defend the actions of radical Christians by pointing to atrocities committed by radical Muslims.

It was a great speech and needed to be said.

Christian extremists in this country are just a slightly watered down version of ISIS.

Christians tie people to fences and beat them to death, they assassinate doctors in churches, they blow up abortion clinics, they put bloody pictures of medical procedures up on billboards.

The American Taliban is as sick as ISIS - just slightly watered down because we have more wealth and comfort in this country.

If American Christians had to live a month in the poverty conditions in the middle east, you'd see Santorum and Huckabee setting gays and immigrants on fire.

Mike Huckabee and Rick Santorum are the watered down version of the Westboro Church.

 

[NYcarbineer]

More proof he is a Muslim.

Your post is more proof that the sort of points the President made are the points that most need to be made.

Yeah, so we can put Obama in the appropriate context

He's the enemy

Islam is not the problem, the mentality of religious people is. And all the faiths have blood on their hands so it's polite to mention that.

But this isn't about religion. Isn't that what the progressives say?

Again, the irony is delicious with you people.

President Obama: 'People Committed Terrible Deeds In The Name Of Christ'

Maybe President Obama was thinking of Bush when he made that statement. Does anyone believe that God really told Bush to invade Iraq?

Actually the ACT of Congress did!

1991 Kuwait invaded by Saddam...
1991 Saddam signed cease fire ...i.e. CEASE FIRE MEANS war is stopped ...temporarily.. war was NOT OVER CEASE FIRE!
1991 to 2003..
Saddam continued to defy UN, USA the rest of the world.
Bill Clinton signed the1998 Liberation of Iraq, or the Congress passes Resolution of 2002 (Public law 107-243, 116 Stat. 1497-1502)
"Authorization for Use of Military Force Against Iraq " "Iraq Liberation Act of 1998 is a United States Congressional statement of policy calling .
"It should be the policy of the United States to support efforts to remove the regime headed by Saddam Hussein from power in Iraq and to promote the emergence of a democratic government to replace that regime."
On December 16, 1998, President Bill Clinton mandated Operation Desert Fox, a major four-day bombing campaign on Iraqi targets.
Then in 2001 with 9/11 and anthrax attacks, it was agreed upon by all these Democrats that:

"..deny Iraq the capacity to develop WMD".Bill Clinton,1998
"..most brutal dictators of Century", Biden,1998
"Iraq compliance with Resolution 687 becomes shell game"..Daschle 1998
"He will use those WMDs again,as he has ten times since 1983" ..Berger Clinton Ntl. Secur. Advr 1998
"posed by Iraq's refusal to end its WMD programs" Levin 1998
"Saddam has ignored the mandate of the UN and is building WMDs and the means to deliver.." Levin 2002
"Saddam has been engaged in development of WMDs which is a threat.."Pelosi 1998
"Hussein has chosen to spend his money on building WMDS.."Albright 1999
"Saddam to refine delivery systems, that will threaten the US..."Graham 2001
"Compelling evidence Saddam has WMDs production storage capacity.." Graham 2002
"Iraq's search for WMDs ...will continue as long as Saddam's in power"..Gore 2002
"Saddam retains stockpiles of WMDS.."Byrd 2002
"..give President authority to use force..to disarm Saddam because..threat our security"..Kerry 2002
"Without a question, we need to disarm Saddam. He is a brutal, murderous dictator, leading an
oppressive regime .... to his continued deceit and his consistent grasp for weapons of mass destruction
.... So the threat of Saddam Hussein with weapons of mass destruction is real ...."Kerry , Jan. 23. 2003
"..Unmistakable evidence Saddam developing nuclear weapons next 5 years.."Rockefeller 2002
"Violated over 11 years every UN resolution demanding disarming WMDs.."Waxman 2002
"He's given aid,comfort & sanctuary to al Qaeda members..and keep developing WMDs"..Hillary 2002
“So it is with conviction that I support this resolution as being in the best interest of our nation. A vote for it is
not a vote to rush to war. It is a vote that puts awesome responsibility in the hands of our president.”
Hillary Clinton on October 2, 2002

So on March 19th to 1 May 2003 AFTER 12 YEARS...
YOU say.."Bush Jumped into a situation (Iraq) knowing nothing about the people, their wants or their needs."?
GEEZ where were you during that time and the above Democrats that supported yes WROTE Legislation called "Liberation of Iraq" and SIGNED by Clinton?

 

[healthmyths]

The problem is doing crazy shit in the name of some religion. It's all bullshit. Only weak, cult-ready minds buy into it.

YOU ARE RIGHT!! NO one disagrees it is the "extremist" that do the events in the name of religion.
We are today though FACED with extremist of the Muslim religion that before Gitmo bombed the Cole.. remember that?
These extremists bombed WTC in 1993... remember that?
Then 3,000 people died in 9/11... again Muslim extremists.
So we agree the problem is crazy shit done by extremists in this case Muslims.

SO why did Obama lump ALL Christians with events that occurred 1,000 years ago?
Read carefully again what Obama said:
“Unless we get on our high horse and think this is unique to some other place, remember that during the Crusades and the 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.”
A) These events occurred 1,000 years ago so what relevance to the burning of a pilot today or beheadings today?
B) Obama didn't say "extremist people committed"... HE SAID ALL CHRISTIANS committed terrible crimes.
C) WHY in the hell bring it up in the first place,insulting a group of passive Christians?
D) JUst shut the f...k UP Obama and don't make things worse.... ISIS,extreme Muslim terrorists don't need ANY MORE excuses to act stupidly and I guarantee there is at least ONE if not MORE Islamist terrorist that is saying or thinking...
"Wow even Obama agrees that Christians did terrible acts!"

 

[Shipwreck]

Obama loves to bring up slavery, funny thing is, he is not a descendant of slaves.

 

[healthmyths]

Islam is not the problem, the mentality of religious people is. And all the faiths have blood on their hands so it's polite to mention that.

How many times do people like you have to be told?

Almost everyone agrees it is the extremists of Islam that cause the problem but to say "yea well other religions..." WE KNOW that!
But Muslims have to work with non-Muslims to rid the world of the "extremists" that are murdering horrifically Christians and Muslims
alike and excusing these Islamic terrorists by saying well the Crusades,etc. helps ONLY the terrorists by justifying THEIR actions today.
We are talking today not 1,000s of years ago!
So Obama just needs to shut the f...k up trying to do "moral equivalency"! It helps ONLY the terrorists!
Don't you understand? These terrorists use words like Obama said as justification!

 

[nodoginnafight]

no matter how many times you post factual evidence that ISIS is NOT Islam, the RW idiots refuse to accept it , and NO amount of pounding can get it through their THICK skulls.

end of story

That narrative of Hussein Obama ...that ISIS is not Islam simply can't cut the mustard.

It simply can not.

No matter how many times progressives, politically correct liberals shout from the rooftops and throw tantrums that ISIS is not Islam won't change an iota of the fact that ISIS is pure Islam.

how about this narrative, airhead?

How To Stop ISIS It Is Not Just Un-Islamic It Is Anti-Islamic

Every time we refer to ISIS as the “Islamic State,” call its members “jihadists” or in any way grant it the religious legitimacy that it so desperately seeks, we simultaneously boost its brand, tarnish the image of Islam and further marginalize the vast majority of Muslims who are disgusted by the group’s un-Islamic actions.

Islam prohibits the extremism exhibited by ISIS. An essential part of the faith is moderation.

EXACTLY!
I just can't figure out what is so hard to understand about this for so many posters here.

 

[Statistikhengst]

Channeling his Rev Wright..

..

"And lest we get on our high horse and think this is unique to some other place, remember that during the crusades and the Inquisition, people committed terrible deeds in the name of Christ."

Both the crusades and the Inquisition happened in the 13th Century or earlier, many hundreds of years before the establishment of the United States.

"In our own country, slavery, Jim crow, so often was justified in the name of Christ," Obama continued. And he mentioned the collision of faiths in India.

"So it's not unique to one group or one religion. There is a tendency in us -- a sinful tendency -- that can pervert and distort our faith."

Obama People Committed Terrible Deeds in the Name of Christ CNS News

And, what's stuck in your bonnet this time?

What the president said is factually correct.

Is the National Prayer Breakfast only for Christians, or what?

I have absolutely not love of Islam at all, but I see nothing wrong or inappropriate in what he said. Then again, unlike you, I don't walk through life enternally butthurt.

He's comparing Christians to the radical nutjobs we're supposed to be fighting?. He's suppose to be a leader rallying the world to defeat the nutjobs. what's the point? He refused to say these people are muslims but he throws stuff out there about Christians 100s of years ago?

No. You completely lack discernment and take everything far too personally. This is your downfall in every single debate.

Pres. Obama compared the PAST actions of some of Christianity, using PAST TENSE, to the present actions of some of Islam. This is historically correct in every possible way and by doing this, he is boxing in the terrorists, for at least islamic nations who do want to make a charge against ISIS will know that the most powerful man in the world is not condemning them just because they are muslims.

Now, I have some very heavy criticisms of the Kuran itself, which I consider to be a totally flawed book. And I hate terrorists to the core. But I do not assume that every muslim is a terrorist. That's the difference between you and me. I discern. You don't.

And while you are engaging in a bellyache worthy of a 1st grader, our President, through his actions and orders, has killed more terrorists than Bush did - FAR MORE.

So, you can stuff that in your bonnet.

No one is saying that 'every' Muslim is a terrorist, that is on you. What folks are saying, rational folks, is that the religion as practiced, interpreted by the extremists has led to what is a cause for war. If that doesn't wake you up, nothing will.

I already long understood that. Got something stuck in your bonnet as well, eh?

NO ONE is justifying any terrorist actions. What they are doing is trying to assure the broader Muslim community that WE are NOT crusaders who are hell bent on wiping them all out. (This is what ISIS is telling them in order to recruit) It is smart to undercut that message. It is also smart to NOT give them any religious status at all. They are not "holy warriors" (which is another way they try to recruit) they are common street thugs.

This kind of language drives a wedge between the terrorists and the Muslim community. Which is EXACTLY what we want.

King of Jordan using this same type of language and approach. It's just smart..

OK if it is "smart" not to give them religious status why then even mention the Crusades,etc. which came across as JUSTIFICATION to the terrorists that hey what is the difference between all Christians that did the Crusades,etc. and burning a pilot!

That is what most of us trying to point out the lack of common sense Obama exhibited.
YOU don't have to point out events that occurred 1,000s of years ago as the moral equivalency of burnings,beheadings, burying alive of today by the Islamic terrorists who yell..Allahu Akbar! They yell it we don't.
