For your discernment. If this is true, regardless of his reasons, we need to pray for him and the Congress.

Does he hold onto the medal tightly when a baby is dying in a metal tray after they are born? Does he cling to the medla as he supports partial birth abortions?

The Catholic Chruch needs to rid themselves of bishops and other leftist who gave $6 million in parishoners money to ACORN.

Yes, a Hindu monkey idol. And sees all faiths as equivalent.

Obama: “There’s the belief, certainly in some quarters, that people haven’t embraced Jesus Christ as their personal savior that they're going to hell.”

GG: You don’t believe that?

OBAMA: I find it hard to believe that my God would consign four-fifths of the world to hell. I can’t imagine that my God would allow some little Hindu kid in India who never interacts with the Christian faith to somehow burn for all eternity. That’s just not part of my religious makeup.

(Obama, 2004)

These are trinkets from every religion out there. Yes, I’m glad he has a pretty little Catholic trinket. That does not make him a Catholic. If this is how you think, then he must be Hindu too, because he wears a Monkey God trinket dedicated to that Hindu God.

Do you know what the other Hindu looking thing is that he has in his hand?

We also need to keep in mind that those who practice sorcery and witchcraft use Christian medals and such sometimes as part of their rituals

“The photo also shows another medal with the image of the Virgin Mary holding the Infant Jesus.”

Yet Obama would have supported the abortion of Jesus.

It is all for show. If he had any real respect for the medals we Catholics have, especially those of us for whom we hold the Blessed Mother in high esteem, he would not have those medals in a jumble in a pocket with other things resembling a lucky rabbits feet. If those medals really meant anything to him in a religious way, he would have them on a chain around his neck.
This man, will use any thing available to prop himself up to try to win people over..If he thought it would enhance his status with the KKK I bet he would wear a white sheet.

I think there are a few intriguing reasons for him carrying the Mary medals.

One, I remember that Lincoln carried Confederate money and even had a CSA note in his pocket the night he was shot. So maybe it’s a keeping a talisman of your enemies type of thing.

Two, I believe that he went to Catholic school for awhile and he feels comforted by Mary (even maybe as surrogate for his real mother). If this is the case, I pray that Our Lady opens his eyes.

Finally, maybe he is aware that JPII credited Mary for saving his life from the assassin’s bullet, and it’s simply a good luck charm.

I think I see a subway token and a key chain from “South of the Border”

I knew he did not care about the soldier. Sgt. Jopek’s memory was as valuable to him as a monkey trinket.

Instead of showing that he values things that are important to people, it shows he does not value anything.

Moral equivalency taken to a new level.

These things are nothing to him, but superstitious talismans.

There's a whole lot besides a Miraculous Medal in that collection of trinkets.

I think we're getting insight into the buckshot-approach nature of this creature. Clearly not a man of finely defined convictions -- but of rather strong but undefined ones. That is, based upon this meager evidence alone.

It could also be that he's pure con and everything he does is for effect, in which case his convictions are both clear and perfectly defined.

I think I've seen all I need to see to conclude as follows: Remember the "private" prayer at the Wailing Wall that was leaked verbatim to the press?

Did George W Bush ever disclose to the media what he carried in his pocket on any given day?

This is a set up -- Obama is a human Mickey Mouse -- an image, a figurehead, a mascot -- in a great fantasy land.
