Commentary and analysis on American politics, culture, and national identity, U.S. foreign policy and international relations, and the state of education
- from a neoconservative perspective! - Keeping an eye on the communist-left so you don't have to!
None of this should be surprising. Mark Schmitt, commenting yesterday on the Senate passage of the ObamaCare monstrosity, remarked:
I've always argued that Obama viewed his central domestic mission as changing the culture and practice of American politics. The passage of health reform is a revelation of just how desperately that change is needed and how difficult it will be to achieve.
Well, maybe not so difficult, if the wholesale rejection of American Christmas traditions are any indication.
To be honest, who cares? The country isn't going to fall apart just because Obama didn't go to church or mention god. Celebrate Christmas your way in your home with your family.
From Time.com: "President Reagan also remained in Washington over Christmas — reportedly so members of the Secret Service could be near their families — although Reagan didn't venture out to a local church service."
I'm pretty sure Reagan was a secret Muslim who was just pretending to like Jesus. Did you know his middle name was "Hussein"? True...
I'm in Anonymous' corner here. US Constitution, Article VI, Section 3:
"The Senators and Representatives before mentioned, and the Members of the several State Legislatures, and all executive and judicial Officers, both of the United States and of the several States, shall be bound by Oath or Affirmation, to support this Constitution; but no religious test shall ever be required as a qualification to any office or public trust under the United States."
That is not to say that such matters cannot provide political fodder- they do. Rick's recollection on Reagan is accurate, though Reagan was ostensibly more religious in terms of his oratory.
Your honor has been duly noted in the records and we thank you for choosing to donate your prize money to the Obama for Life Re-Election Committee. Your contribution of one million dollars will go far towards tilting the Supreme Court in the proper direction. Obama appreciates your affection and wants you to know that he loves you and is very, very proud of you.
Yeah, well Christmas isn't something Muslims usually celebrate, even those of the closeted variety.
Funny how this lying fraud of a former community organizer ran all up and down the campaign trail touting his "Christian" beliefs, yet once elected began shedding that image before the Obamas had even finished unpacking.
Obama having attended a "Christian" chuech for two decades was like just about everything else associated with this man - pure, premeditated deception.

One would think that an intelligent person would be at least mildly concerned about Obama's deliberate deception in this area (among so many others) given the fact that he was elected head of a government that literally has acquired the power of life and death over you.
Ever wonder what else this man has been deceiving people about?

In addition, I'm wondering if the Deists among our Founding Fathers (Jefferson and Franklin come to mind) would've balked at such this notion.
