The Daily ^ | February 6, 2014 | Christopher Bedford

In a speech during Thursday morning’s National Prayer Breakfast, President Barack Obama acknowledged, “It’s also clear that around the world, freedom of religion is under threat.”

“No society can truly succeed unless it guarantees the rights of all its people, including religious minorities,” he added later.

The Obama administration has been harshly criticized by the Catholic church and civil liberties organizations concerned that Obamacare mandates that organizations provide their employees free access to contraceptives through their health care plans, even if their religious faith calls contraception a sin.

The Little Sisters of the Poor, an organization run by Catholic nuns that provides assistance to the elderly poor, doesn’t qualify for the Obama administration’s exemption of “religious organizations” because they hire people of all religions.

Uh, - - - - Obama - - - .

Yeah - - - .

This will come as a shock to you, but, well - - , the Federal Government is not a Religion.

The Catholics are part of the Christian Religion, and their Freedom of Religion is being threatened by you in the Federal Government.

Its the Limbaugh Theorem on display. Or as it is sometimes called, “The Sgt. Schultz” anomaly...”I didn’t see nothing...I don’t know nothing.”

I was surprised that he ws speaking at the prayer breakfast today. As I understand it, he did not go to church on Christmas Eve or on Christmas Day. I didn’t think he would be interested in a prayer breakfast.

I saw his speech today and did not believe one word of his proclaiming he was a Christian!

The only thing not a lie about Bath House's life are his two kids, as far as I can tell.

He lives, swims, breathes, and golfs lie after lie after lie....

Lies roll from his purple lips as easily as a bird flies.
