Obama’s “serious distortions” of Christianity

Staff Report

A Christian historian and author has concluded that Barack Obama is "bizarrely confused" on a range of moral and religious issues — and that the current administration "poses the greatest threat to religious liberty in American history."

Dr. Jefrey Breshears has published a new book that examines the factors that shaped President Obama’s understanding of Christianity. The Gospel According to Barack: Where Did Barack Obama Get His Ideas About Christianity? analyzes the religious elements that have informed the president’s views on a wide range of social and moral issues including same-sex "marriage," abortion, and the relationship between church and state.

Breshears is president of the Areopagus Christian Study Center, based in Marietta, Georgia.

"I was motivated to write the book by the comment that President Obama made back in May of 2012 that it was his Christian faith that inspired him to publicly support same-sex marriage," explains the author, in reference to the president’s explanation that his views on the matter had "evolved."

"I thought a comment like that deserved an appropriate response," Breshears continues, "because frankly nothing could be more indefensible than misusing [and] misrepresenting the Christian faith in order to promote a practice that’s so obviously unbiblical."

Pravda: “Obama Communist”

Staff Report

The famed Russian news site “Pravda,” which ironically was formed as the official Communist publication of the former Soviet Union, recently released a scathing opinion column entitled, “Obama’s Soviet Mistake.”

In that column, the author unabashedly labels the U.S. president a “Communist
without question promoting the Communist Manifesto without calling it
so.”

The author, Xavier Lerma, goes on to note how Obama’s “cult of personality” has mesmerized the ignorant in America, who will follow the hope and change icon in much the same way as ”fools” still praise Lenin and Stalin in Russia.

“Obama’s fools and Stalin’s fools share the same drink of illusion.”

Adding an interesting twist to the article, the author juxtaposes President Obama with Vladimir Putin, noting that the Russian president has been sounding more and more like “Ronald Reagan” or other “conservatives in America” who seek to promote smaller government and lower taxes. Lerma attributes the following remarks to Putin regarding the country’s taxes and the economy:

“…we are reducing taxes on production, investing money in the economy. We are optimizing state expenses.

The second possible mistake would be excessive interference into the economic life of the country and the absolute faith into the all-mightiness of the state.

There are no grounds to suggest that by putting the responsibility over to the state, one can achieve better results.

Unreasonable expansion of the budget deficit, accumulation of the national debt – are as destructive as an adventurous stock market game.

During the time of the Soviet Union the role of the state in economy was made absolute, which eventually lead to the total non-competitiveness of the economy. That lesson cost us very dearly. I am sure no one would want history to repeat itself.”

Reading Putin’s speech “without knowing the author,” begins Lerma, “one would think it was written by Reagan or another conservative in America.”

“The speech promotes smaller government and less taxes. It comes as no surprise to those who know Putin as a conservative,” Lerma writes with irony.

GOP senators criticize Susan Rice after meeting

USA Today is reporting that after meeting with U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice on Tuesday, three GOP lawmakers said their concerns have only grown about misleading statements Rice made concerning the attack on the U.S. Consulate in Libya that left Ambassador Christopher Stevens and three other Americans dead.

Rice’s meeting with Sens. John McCain, Lindsay Graham and Kelly Ayotte on Capitol Hill came as the White House signaled it may nominate Rice to replace Hillary Rodham Clinton as secretary of State.

McCain, R-Ariz., has said he may oppose her nomination because she should have known her statements on the Sept. 11 attack were false.

Rice said in a round of interviews days after the deadly incident that the attack may have emerged from a protest outside the consulate in response to an anti-Islam video produced in the USA. It was later learned there was no protest, and the attack was a well-organized terror plot likely timed for the anniversary of 9/11.

"The information she gave the American people was incorrect when she said that it was a spontaneous demonstration triggered by a hateful video," McCain told reporters after the meeting with Rice.

"The bottom line is that I’m more disturbed than I was before … about how four Americans died in Benghazi, Libya," Graham said.
