Culture: In remarks at a prayer meeting Thursday, President Obama implied Christianity, just like Islam, is filled with people who "hijack religion for their own murderous ends." This is the progressive disease of moral equivalence at its worst.
In recent days and weeks, the world has watched grimly as the horrific barbarity of fundamentalist Islam has been put on full display.
With routine beheadings, crucifixions, tortures, mass killings of civilians, burying children alive, and, most recently, burning a prisoner alive and filming his death agony to the approving yells of onlookers, it's clear something is horribly wrong within Islam. And yet, apart from rather routine denunciations of the savagery, Obama used his appearance at a National Prayer Breakfast to upbraid Christians for their sins. "Unless we get on our high horse and think this is unique to some other place, remember that during the Crusades and the Inquisition, people committed terrible deeds in the name of Christ," Obama said. "In our home country, slavery and Jim Crow all too often was justified in the name of Christ."
The remarks aren't merely insulting. They betray a deep ignorance of Western Judeo-Christian culture and its history.

My loathing of the illegitimate, bisexual Marxist Kenyan Muslim Usurper requires a stiff drink.
And it’s too early yet...
I agree. It has gotten so bad, only God can solve the problems we have. This is not going to end well.
“Shocking Ignorance?” -— Need we ask further about his school records and test scores?
Liberalism is stupidity masquerading as intelligence, ignorance masquerading as wisdom, oppression masquerading as freedom.
He’s not stupid or ignorant, just advancing his muslim agenda.
What a pathetic jerk. Truly an embarassment to America.
That ignorance is dangerously common among the left.
First thing this morning I got a comment from some idiot declaring himself to be a “history major” who said that Muslims didn’t slaughter their way across the mideast, North Africa and into Southern Europe. He claimed they peacefully evangelized their way across the world living in peaceful coexistence with all they encountered and the crusades were a bloodthirsty Christian tantrum.
You pretty much summed it up!
Every once in a while, Obama’s mask slips. Observe his face as he spoke these words of condemnation of Christians. It looked like hate.
FR needs a category for “Obama is an idiot”.
That anyone is "shocked" by this at this point is, well, shocking.
Sometimes the need overwhelms the clock
That said, "beer o-clock" starts about 10am on fridays
Darrell Waltrip gave a great Keynote speech. Its unfortunate that the idiot stumbling over his stupidity overshadowed it.

Well, it’s after 1600 in Baghdad, so let’s party!
What's disturbing is that he operates from childhood prejudice instead of from reality.
I’m counting down the days until Zero rides his camel into the sunset, I pray to God we can survive his muslim-terrorist loving encouragement...
Thats the kind of person you offer to buy a ticket to Eastern Syria/Western Iraq for, then dare them to take it.
When they refuse you declare the debate over based on their forefeit, and walk away.
I can’t believe we have to suffer two more years of this POS. My fear is Hillary will be next.
