“God save us. This has been the longest 100 days in our lives.”

BUMP to THAT!

My only hope is that in the future we can LAUGH about this, because it’s so incredibly PAINFUL to watch, and detrimental to our Nation as a whole.

Each and every thing this sob does is horrific and sophomoric!

Amen.

Actually, The Longest 100 Days sounds like a book title. Someone get to work!

On the plus side, that means there are only 1375 days left.

the obamites covered up the abbreviation for Jesus’ name because they couldn’t stand for someone else to get top billing.

Well look, it’s up to the Georgetown Regents to have enough guts to stand by their convictions and not give in to secular atheists. I have no sympathy. Angry? Sure. How can one respond to all the gutless appeasers?

"We vote for this scandalette's having been the product of just another bad idea from some lower-down on the White House staff, whose idea of presidential decorum may be what the late Richard John Neuhaus, priest and public intellectual, called the Naked Public Square. That is, one devoid of any reference to religion. "

The Naked Public Square usually just gets taken over by something else.
If it's not Christian family values, it will be liberal, socialist, or secular ones.

HowlinglyMind-BendingAbsurdity...you chose this handle in 2001...how the heck did you know that we would be where we are today, with the HowlinglyMind-BendingAbsurdity sitting in the Oval office?

Prescient?

It could have been a precognitive event.
That's possible.
I predicted the Pandemic Panic Card being dropped April 14th but
it was just kind of a half-assed horsing around joke at the time
that it seemed likely they would go there next.

The handle exclamation came from repeated exposure to the kind
of cognitive dissonance that became routine during the Clinton years.
One absurdity that made you howl after another until your head hurt.
Clinton was an undergrad at Georgetown so I guess this has come full circle.

What's next do you think? ( the next mind-bending absurdity)

Ditto for all the weak Nancys at Notre Dame. It's their own damn fault. They have no one to blame but themselves.

Georgetown is basically controlled by liberals with a liberal, secular, multicultural agenda. The mostly liberal modernist clergy go along with this. If there are more than maybe, say, three aging Catholic priests left there who are genuinely Catholic in philosophy and theological thinking, I would like to hear about it.

This strikes me as an unprecedented event. To my recollection no President -- for that matter, no public official -- has ever seen fit to drape religious symbols when appearing in a religious environment.

Has our crack White House Press Corps undertaken to ask the President why this was done? If so, what was the answer?

Obviously, it wasn't done casually. It was done with willful aforethought...for a reason. What was it?

Is our Chosen One "uncomfortable" within a Christian environment?(one can't call the atmosphere inside Rev. Jeremiah Wright's Trinity United Church of Christ Christian). Could it be that his Muslim sensibilities are offended by the image of the cross?

The affair is certainly meaningful. But in what way...??? The answer would be revealing.

There is a photo of Laura Bush speaking in the same lecture hall (Gaston Hall) at Georgetown University in which the IHS and Cross are not covered up. The symbols are visible above and behind her but they don't jump right out in the photograph. They could have picked another location for Obama's speech.

As it was, from one camera angle, Obama was photographed with the VERY religious Catholic allegorical mural painting "Faith" in the background behind his head with the Bible opened displaying the Greek letters "Alpha" and "Omega" which represent Christ from sacred scripture.
