Barack Obama seeks divine intervention on health care reform

With nothing else working, President Barack Obama is asking religious leaders to help him sell the public on health care reform.

POLITICO listened in to an Oval Office conference call Tuesday, where Obama, alongside other top administration officials, beseeched thousands of faith-based and community organizations to preach the gospel on new insurance reforms, chiefly the Patients’ Bill of Rights.

“Get out there and spread the word,” Obama told leaders from across the religious spectrum on the conference call, organized by Health and Human Services Center for Faith-Based and Community Partnerships.

“This is something that we’ll be able to look back on, just like we do on Medicare and Social Security, as a cornerstone that improves the security of millions of Americans, at the same time lowers costs and gets control of costs, both at the government level, but also for families and businesses," he added.

Obama instructed faith leaders to treat the new law as settled fact and use their perches of power to convey that message to congregants and friends.

“The debate in Washington is over, the Affordable Care Act is now law ... I think all of you can be really important validators and trusted resources for friends and neighbors, to help explain what’s now available to them,” he said.

Dear Allah,

I have done my job like a good muzzie boy should. Please forgive me for enjoying hot dogs and BBQ pork ribs.
I have just about hosed these dhimmies into sharia and my job is about done.

I have been a faithful martyr for Allah so I have a request for my death.

Do you think you could provide me with 72 male virgins instead of the usual females? I have put up with Moochelle for too long.

Thanks Allah, your servant. Barack Hussein Obama mmm mmm mmm

Where is the outrage from the ACLU? What happened to the separation of church and state?

I guess we are endowed by our Creator with the right of health care, though no other rights.

“what about taxpayer funded abortions?”

Well it appears Obama is for them, but in that case he's not asking for God's help.
