Why are so many people eager to put Mitt Romney on the spot about his religion, but just don't care about Barack Obama's? If it's an important issue for Romney, who may be our next president, why isn't it important for Obama, who is our current president?
Obama describes himself as a Christian. Yet, he honors Islam, a religion that doesn't acknowledge Jehovah-Jireh (The Lord Who Provides), the God of the Bible. Nor does Islam accept the authority of Jesus Christ, God's son. It calls the crucifixion a lie. If Obama truly is a Christian, why does he quote the Koran far more than the Bible? Why doesn't he assert the Gospel of Jesus Christ? Doing so doesn't express hatred for Muslims. Jesus loves Muslims, whether peaceful or violent.
Apparently Obama considers America a Muslim country. He considers it his duty as president to wipe out negative stereotypes about Islam. There are negative stereotypes about Christianity, too. Does Obama's "duty" apply?
Obama's belief system affects his policies in the Middle East. We've seen the carnage in Benghazi, Libya, where our ambassador and three members of his staff were murdered. This happened on the anniversary of 9-11.
A coincidence? Not likely! Muslim extremists went on hateful rampages in other countries, tore down and burned the American flag. Supposedly, this was done to protest an insult against their religion. However, the message is clear to those paying attention. Radical Islam is intent on destroying America.
Obama makes excuses for the Muslim Brotherhood's violent behavior. Its members chant "Death to America" while Obama offers apologies and appeasement. Obviously he thinks those who hate America will respect him.
Has Obama seen his picture being burned alongside the American flag? Does he realize the significance of his being burned in effigy? It's not a compliment. It's not a show of respect. Reality check for Obama ... the Muslim extremists hate him. They consider him the enemy. Talking nice-nice doesn't work!
Attempting to soothe the feelings of those who intend to destroy us has weakened America's position and put us in harm's way. It's time President Obama stop acting like a Milquetoast wimp. If he's truly a Christian, he should get his priorities in place.
It's time to stop apologizing and appeasing. America needs a strong leader. It isn't Barack Obama.
