#2 Blame, blame, blame.... why do these donks always have to phueching have something or someone to "blame." By the way, the name "Obama" is a bit too close to "Osama" for my liking.

#3 Obama claims Christianity but this is an interesting tidbit: Barack Obama, Man of Faith
Since his mother was a secular humanist -- and between the lines, sounds like an atheist -- and his stepfather was a Moslem (the late Barack Obama Sr., a Moslem-raised but non-religious Kenyan economist, deserted his family when his son was only two years old), how would that shape the faith of someone who, according to Falsani, is unapologetic in saying he has a personal relationship with Jesus Christ?

#4 Thanks Ed. An Kenyan (Afrikan) economist? Now there's a success story in the making.

#5 The WPSD-TV report has a disclaimer (from an Obama aide) saying that the story is misleading since Obama regularly fills his tank with e85. According to the GM website, the Envoy is not e85-compatible, though.

Could it be that the Dems most recent shining star is (gasp!) lying?

#6 I find it more interesting his step father was also muslim. Was he African muslim or Nation of Islam? Was the senator brought up a muslim and what are his sympathies toward it? What led him to claim the Christian faith even though his politics is far left and secular humanist, like his mother.

#7 Oh. He must drive the 500 MPG, non polluting Envoy that spews out grass seed along the highways and it drives along lowering or raising the earth's temperature where appropriate.
I hear GM makes them just for liberal politicians...

#8 Obahma is a dumbass hypocrate, just like most of the democratic party.

"Do as I say, not as I do and it is all your fault I'm the victim here!" - official Democratic party slogan

#10 Ed:

I won't judge him about his Christianity. That's between him and God. Of course, it's some very telling "fruit" that he's so secular, humanist, and nanny state. The problem is, a lot of the Church has gone that way in this post modern, secular age. They've just substituted gov't for God in whom they rely on. Notice they do a LOT of things because they're "good" (based upon feelings), which is a Christian thing to do. However, they have the gov't doing it, not the Church, who should be doing it.

#11 But, on the hypocrisy front, fire away at him. In fact, God says something about that too in His Good Book.
