At national prayer breakfast this morning he tells us to "get off our high horse" and remember that "during the Crusades and Inquisition, people committed terrible deeds in the name of Christ"

Wow. So in order to deflect from what is happening NOW in the Middle East, he wants to point to events from over ONE THOUSAND YEARS ago and say that "See? You did it too!"

Pathetic. This is your president.

Not saying I don't trust you but do you have a link? I'd be interested to see the rest of the article.

As for what was said, Good God. He just can't help himself. I used to think he was just an ass hole etc. Now, I honestly just think he is in way over his head. He has nothing to offer except conversations on race and a very particular liberal worldview. Hell, his research history shows that, Mr. critical legal theorist. He's just flat out incompetent and I think more and more people are seeing that.

I think the media wants to think he is their guy but increasingly he isn't. He isn't a left wing mastermind set to redraw the political map. He's just a guy in way over his head fumbling from issue to issue.

AOL.com is still a thing?


A different type of campaign from a much less civilized time. Atrocities committed in the Crusades and Inquisition aside, how can he draw such comparisons with a straight face and continue to sympathize and make excuses for isis?

Saw that story a little bit ago... (can't watch the video at work though)

He also added in Jim Crow and slavery. It was just jaw-dropping.

Obama has jumped the shark. Officially.

Obama had to attack Christianity from 500 years ago. Had to also attack America. Where did he attack Islam????

Here's one I found a reprint of, so I don't know if it's true... Back during the Inquisition (which was part of his "TRIPE"), that he was holding a grudge against...

Quote:Secular historians given access to the Vatican's archives in 1998 discovered that of the 44,674 individuals tried between 1540 and 1700, only 804 were recorded as being relictus curiae saeculari (relinquished to the secular court) for punishment. The 763-page report indicates that only 1 percent of the 125,000 trials recorded over the entire 345-year history of the Inquisition ultimately resulted in execution by the secular authority, which means that throughout its infamous history, on average per year, four people were tried and put to death.

Yeah, that's another great comparison from BOZO the clown.

Obama had a more non-denominational message for the audience that also included prominent leaders of non-Christian faiths. The president said that while religion is a source for good around the world, people of all faiths have been willing to "hijack religion for their own murderous ends."

"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.
"So it is not unique to one group or one religion," Obama said. "There is a tendency in us, a simple tendency that can pervert and distort our faith."

Fine, you go first.

Yep, he wants to talk about stuff that happened hundreds of years ago or in the dark ages, as opposed to a global threat that is present now. Sometimes he takes his mask off and it ain't pretty.

I reckon' that can be contrived...in some silly world I refuse to participate in....

however, as an atheist that is a theoretical realist, I choose to view all religions as evil....

We've kidded (and not so kidded) about him holding a grudge... but he's holding a grudge for something 700+ years ago... now THAT's A Grudge.

How a liberal thinks:

Slavery - it happened yesterday
The Crusades - it happened yesterday
Benghazi - that's old news

More people are killed by Islamists each year than in all 350 years of the Spanish Inquisition combined.

On 9/11, REAL MUSLIMS killed more people in the name of Islam because the Prince of War, Muhammad (piss be upon him), commanded it in the Koran, than were killed in all the years of the Inquisition.

Bad strategy by Obama. Pretty sure he has no strategy anyhow.
