My Mom would call that a backhanded compliment, djplong.

Bucco,

I think you took my posting wrong. I was not criticizing you but the others who took shots at Obama's lack of patriotism, calling it a photo op, saying "liberals" are anti-religion, or what other candidates would have gone through with the same words.

You have never seen me post anything mocking a president or a candidate for their statement of faith.

I thought what President Obama said today was excellent and thought it was very good of George Bush to stand up with him. Both very fine men.

So, you are saying that you believe it wasn't a photo op for the Bama?

It is naive of you to believe that with his low approval ratings Obama would not stump to citing Psalms to gain a favorable impression. This guy is audacious and I consider that comment to be my kindest. it was pure and simple a photo op to be used during the campaign

i agree.

"So much hatred from some people".

This sentence states that this post is filled with multiple expressions of hate from a number of people. In all due respect, I defy you to provide the evidence of that in this particular thread.

There's no need to exaggerate to make your point.

I guess you're guilty of "hate" now also. I'm so sorry Katz.:cry:

Unfortunately Obama has earned we the people's skepticism of his sincerity. He has proven time and time again born out by his past political record, there is little or nothing he does or says without a personal political gain intention. I am among the many who believe that (right or wrong).

Once a street thug always a street thug. Oh, did I say that? Sorry, do not want Bugsy to call me hateful. What I meant to say is "once a community organizer, always a community organizer." Can you say ACORN?

:laugh:At least I am in good company! :a040:

Amazing that the uber-conservatives will stop at nothing to discredit our President. No matter what he does or says, they will find some way to make it the wrong thing.

All I can do is to say that they had better get used to 4 more years of this President. Get used to the fact that the rest of the country is not thinking the same uber-conservative mindset.

Over 90% of African-Americans will vote for Obama, most Hispanics will vote for Obama, most people under 40 will vote for Obama, most seniors will vote for Obama (they hear Social Security-Ponzi crap and are scared it will go away), most registered Democrats will vote Obama.

There is not a whole lot left to vote Republican. Add in the fact that any right-wing extremist will drive most moderate Republicans over to the Democrat side or just not vote at all - you have another Obama victory.

Say what you want, but you know I am correct. Still, even better - do not say anything. I am done on this topic and 'nuff said.

:1rotfl::1rotfl::1rotfl: Most people under 40 do not have jobs. My guess is that they will not buy into this Hopey Changey bull**** and vote for a Republican that can turn this economy around so they can have a life, like getting a job and moving out of their parents cellar.;)

Just keep tapping your ruby heels togethers and repeating "There's no place like home, there's no place like home"

I think everyone missed the point. Obama's speech was more like being in church where God and prayer should be highlighted. I see the comments that are misunderstood by the right about using God to impress or elevate your position. The lefts point, in my opinion, is they are very concerned by folks that act as if they have a personal red line to God and will give him a call to verify their take on Government decisions is the right one, then come back with a grin on their face like Jimmy Durante for action. If you use a Bible, a crystal ball or even a wigi board to help you make a decision for our country, you have to be a little weird. Yes, I understand that is exactly what the Muslims do, but I do not want to see that done in this country. Jim Jones, David Koresh, Pat Robertson, Matthew Hale and many other nut balls like these are American. Do we need one of these in the white house. I see it as small step from these guys and some of our fellow conservatives. In 2011, we should be past the caveman mentality where we all fear the next cave because we have a different God to tell us what to do and who to kill. Don't you get it, you live here, so Jesus is right, but if you were born in the middle east, Mohamed would be right. There must be a better way than to kill everyone that has a different take on who is the most powerful Prophet

God (yes, the Christian God) does talk to us, He talks to all EVERYONE! Walk outside on a clear starry night and just listen...you might be amazed.:cool:
God doesn't use hate to conquer, He uses LOVE!
Jesus might have been a powerful Prophet, but also HE IS GOD! that is just the way it is:laugh:
