WASHINGTON -- The White House says President Barack Obama is a Christian who prays daily.

White House spokesman Bill Burton made the remark Thursday, hours after a poll showed 18 percent of Americans think Obama is Muslim, up from 11 percent who thought so last year. A third think he's Christian, and 4 in 10 say they don't know Obama's religion.

--SNIP--

Burton said: "The president is obviously a Christian. He prays every day."

You can't put the toothpaste back in the tube...the WH obviosuloy has to repond to the poll, but the effect is to keep the story alive, give it legs, and more people will tune in on it...I suspect that a great many have thought it true, but as yet were unwilling to say so..now, seeing that they are not alone in these views...more will come to the same conclusion...Americans are fairly simplistic in their assessment of who's Christian....if you don't go to church on Sundays, you probably aren't..

Also, I think many as yet aren't willing to admit these thought to pollsters..lest they be thought of as prejudiced..

Is Mr. Burton saying that Obama converted from Islam to Christianity? I understand that Islam does not look kindly on such a betrayal, what with Imam Obama’s daddy being a mooselimb and all.

NO matter what happens now, the Obama administration is screwed.

Maybe Obama and Holder and Kagan and Neal Katyal, who became the acting U.S. solicitor general when Elena Kagan was nominated to serve on the U.S. Supreme Court, and previously served as the legal counsel of record for the man who worked as Osama bin Laden’s driver from February 1996 through November 2001, maybe these people are just huge fans of John Adams, and really truly do not care if Obama is a one term president like John Adams.

Obama needs to push through some sort of Sedition Act more flagrantly unconstitutional than ObamaCare though, to really seal the comparison.

There they go again thinking We The People are morons. I’m sure he prays every day or perhaps every hour for more power and more destruction to our economy, prays for more ways to destroy our Constitution and prays to find ways to diminish our security and our military. In what religion is he praying with Pelosi and Reid standing right next to him holding hands.

This is hilarious. How many times must Obama repeat “I am NOT a Muslim”, before we believe him.

This is almost as laughable as that latest passport the White House introduced the other day. You know - the one that “proves” he was born in Hawaii.
