National Day of (Conservative, Christian) Prayer

Nonno · 05-08-2009, 07:39 PM

"Conservative religious groups are criticizing President Obama for what the Associated Press called his "muted" observance of National Prayer Day Thursday. "At this time in our country's history, we would hope our President would recognize more fully the importance of prayer," said Shirley Dobson, chairwoman of National Day of Prayer Task Force, which organizes the prayer day festivities."

"Putting aside for a moment the question of whether it's appropriate for the White House to be involved in encouraging prayer, this particular occasion has evolved in a way that almost guaranteed its demise.

The Bush White House had National Prayer Day run by a conservative, evangelistic Christian group. The mission statement on the Task Force's Web site states that "in accordance with Biblical truth," the Task Force seeks to, among other things:

* "Foster unity within the Christian Church"
* "Publicize and preserve America's Christian Heritage"
* "Glorify the Lord in word and deed"

The event became a showcase for religious conservative Christians to lead the nation in prayer."

Maybe Obama could get together with Rev Wright and lead us in a rousing "God damn America"

Now that Obama is President he can privately go back to his God Damn America mentality instead of the B/S act he did during the campaign. I'm shocked he's still wearing his flag pin, thought he would have chucked that into the trash on Nov 5th.

I think the correct tense is "be" (for your "are's")
I be
you be
we be
