President Barack Obama has sure managed to nail down his ability to both praise Islam and damn Christianity in the same sentence recently, and this week he’s managed to do so in a particularly infuriating fashion.
At his most ridiculous in a long-winded speech designed to sing the praises of Muslim Americans, President Barack Obama claimed “rhetoric against Muslim Americans… has no place in our country.”
But apparently rhetoric against White or Christian Americans — which composed almost the entirety of his speech — is absolutely fine.
An example: Obama hand-picked the shooting in Charleston in which a White American shot a congregation of African American church-goers as a example of terrorism, and all but ignored the plentiful examples terror spread by Islamic extremists.
He chastises Christians as bitter clingers, but will not tolerate the same to be said of Muslim Americans.
Obama recently joked about his supposed status as a Muslim pretending to be Christian, and seems to ignore — or not understand — the nature of the idea.
When the President of the United States says that rhetoric against Muslims has no place in America, while himself spewing rhetoric against Christians, people will no doubt wonder where his allegiances lie.
It is a problem of Obama’s creation. If he wants to prove that he is a Christian to those who deny it, he has got to begin to start speaking like one.

wrong,muslims have no place in the world end islam
Oh but anti-American, anti-Christian, and anti-Whites does? You are the king of racists!
This is not my article,,…..This is an interesting assessment of “The Donald.” This person may have nailed this guy for what he really is. (It is credited to Mychal Massie, but I did not use quotes because I do not have the original article.)
Regardless of how you label your “party affiliation” this is worth your time to read.
Trump Is Not Conservative, He’s A Pragmatist
By Mychal Massie on January 19, 2016 in Daily Rant, Race & Politics 5
We recently enjoyed a belated holiday dinner with friends at the home of other friends. The dinner conversation was jocund, ranging from discussions about antique glass and china to theology and politics. At one point reference was made to Donald Trump being a conservative to which I responded that Trump is not a conservative.
I said that I neither view nor do I believe Trump views himself as a conservative. I stated it was my opinion that Trump is a pragmatist. He sees a problem and understands it must be fixed. He doesn’t see the problem as liberal or conservative, he sees it only as a problem. That is a quality that should be admired and applauded, not condemned. But I get ahead of myself.
Viewing problems from a liberal perspective has resulted in the creation of more problems, more entitlement programs, more victims, more government, more political correctness, and more attacks on the working class in all economic strata.
Viewing things according to the so-called Republican conservative perspective has brought continued spending, globalism to the detriment of American interests and well being, denial of what the real problems are, weak, ineffective, milquetoast, leadership that amounts to Barney Fife Deputy Sheriff – appeasement oriented and afraid of its own shadow. In brief, it has brought liberal ideology with a pachyderm as a mascot juxtaposed to the$#%&!@*of the Democrat Party.
Immigration isn’t a Republican problem – it isn’t a liberal problem – it is a problem that threatens the very fabric and infrastructure of America. It demands a pragmatic approach not an approach that is intended to appease one group or another.
The impending collapse of the economy isn’t a liberal or conservative problem it is an American problem. That said, until it is viewed as a problem that demands a common sense approach to resolution, it will never be fixed because the Democrats and Republicans know only one way to fix things and the longevity of their impracticality has proven to have no lasting effect. Successful businessmen like Donald Trump find ways to make things work, they do not promise to accommodate.
Trump uniquely understands that China’s manipulation of currency is not a Republican problem or a Democrat problem. It is a problem that threatens our financial stability and he understands the proper balance needed to fix it. Here again successful businessmen like Trump who have weathered the changing tides of economic reality understand what is necessary to make business work and they, unlike both sides of the political aisle, know that if something doesn’t work you don’t continue trying to make it work hoping that at some point it will.
As a pragmatist Donald Trump hasn’t made wild pie-in-the-sky promises of a cell phone in every pocket, free college tuition, and a $15 hour minimum wage for working the drive-through a Carl’s Hamburgers.
I argue that America needs pragmatists because pragmatists see a problem and find ways to fix them. They do not see a problem and compound it by creating more problems.
You may not like Donald Trump but I suspect that the reason people do not like him is because: 1) he is antithetical to the “good old boy” method of brokering backroom deals that fatten the coffers of politicians; 2) they are unaccustomed to hearing a candidate speak who is unencumbered by the financial shackles of those who own them vis-a`-vis donations; 3) he is someone who is free of idiomatic political ideology; and 4) he is someone who understands that it takes more than hollow promises and political correctness to make America great again.
Listening to Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders talk about fixing America is like listening to two lunatics trying to “out crazy” one another. Jeb Bush and Marco Rubio are owned lock, stock, and barrel by the bankers, corporations, and big dollar donors funding their campaigns. Bush can deny it but common sense tells anyone willing to face facts that people don’t give tens of millions without expecting something in return.
We have had Democrats and Republican ideologues and what has it brought us? Are we better off today or worst off? Has it happened overnight or has it been a steady decline brought on by both parties?
I submit that a pragmatist might be just what America needs right now. And as I said earlier, a pragmatist sees a problem and understands that the solution to fix same is not about a party, but a willingness and boldness to get it done.
People are quick to confuse and despise confidence as arrogance but that is common among those who have never accomplished anything in their lives and who have always played it safe not willing to risk failure. Be sure to register Republican. Feel free to copy and paste. Go Donald Trump for President
