With approval ratings plummeting and support for the new health care law waning, the president is scrambling for ways to sell his health care overhaul. Possibly looking for a miracle, he’s turning to church leaders who preach about such events to deliver one.

“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.” That’s how Politico describes a conference call that featured the president on Tuesday.

Gee I thought the left would sue if churches talked politics..........now they are trying to use them......

Muslims are exempt from ObamaCare.

Christian churches should preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ and none other.

Those that don’t ... aren’t really Christian churches.

Americans need to be on the lookout for this commie garbage and keep the aCLU’s phone number handy. We got “separation of church and state” issues to worry about don’t ya know.

Mr. Issa, paging Mr. Darrell Issa...

Add another abuse of power log to the brewing impeachment firestorm ping!

If he wants to preach obamacare, he’d have more success just issuing a fatwa about it.

Hillary used the churches, Catholic & Protestant, during her campaign for the Senate in New York. Parishioners were removed if they spoke out against her diabolical abortion stance. When the Democrats deem it necessary to use churches, they will. And, the church is so cowed, they won’t protest.

Muslims are exempt from ObamaCare.Is that statement true? How do you know? I do know the Amish are exempt, but didn't know about the Muslims.

Exactly. If my minister preached pro-ObamaCare, I would walk out and talk to him about it the next time I saw him. If it happened twice, I would find a new church. That is not the proper role of a minister, even if you ignore the fact that ObamaCare is harmful to the poor, the sick, and those in need.

Muslims are exempt from ObamaCare.

Thanks for that reminder, jimbo123.

I will stand with them [Muslims] should the political winds shift in an ugly direction - Taqiyya-Talkin’ Totalitarian Collectivist Barack Anti-Individual Insane POS Obama

[righttackle44]

This guy is growing nuttier and more unstable by the week.

[jimfree]

Any minister that so preaches is excommunicated from any Christianity that I know.

[Surrounded_too]

Nuttier by the week ——

Who Ate The Strawberries. Whoooo did it?

[onyx]

NOTHING stops this Marxist.
Rules? Laws?
They’re for everyone else!

[cameraeye]

He's trying to quit smoking. lol

[penelopesire]

It almost makes you wonder if Obama is a republican plant to destroy the entire democrat party for decades to come...LOL!

OK...riveting my tin foil hat down a little tighter now....LOL!

[dforest]

Democrats say they want a separation of church and state.

What a hypocrite.
