President Barack Obama has been taking lumps from Republicans for years over his support for Wall Street and health care reform, but today at the National Prayer Breakfast he claimed support from on high to defend two of his most controversial legislative achievements.
"And so when I talk about our financial institutions playing by the same rules as folks on Main Street, when I talk about making sure insurance companies arent discriminating against those who are already sick, or making sure that unscrupulous lenders arent taking advantage of the most vulnerable among us, I do so because I genuinely believe it will make the economy stronger for everybody. But I also do it because I know that far too many neighbors in our country have been hurt and treated unfairly over the last few years, and I believe in Gods command to 'love thy neighbor as thyself.'"
"I know the version of that Golden Rule is found in every major religion and every set of beliefs from Hinduism to Islam to Judaism to the writings of Plato," Obama added.
The president said he often falls to his knees in prayer, and emphasized the role of his religious values in determining where to lead the country.

Obama the 1%-er should be supporting his aunt and uncle—not us, if he believed the stuff he was shoveling this morning.
And his half brother in the old country.
I watched a little of him this morning before the projectile vomiting kicked in—he lies so smoothly.
But everything he says is a lie—including the “and” and the “the”.
Especially when he said that he has been driven to his knees in prayer of late—I said out loud—yeah—five times a day, facing Mecca, on a rug.
Then I had to look for a bucket.
Exactly. He's a Blasphemer who believes the Muslim Call To Prayer Is The Sweetest Sound He Knows.
Just imagine the media coverage if President Bush ever said anything remotely close to this about his policy or legislation.
Where is the barf alert?
He just makes this stuff as he opens his mouth ,like that liar guy , that’s right ,ya that’s it from SNL (?)
I am sorry to say this but there is a tradition of Christian Socialism going back to pre-Marx days.
Must be campaign time. Run as a Christian, govern like a pagan.
Better yet where’s the ACLU?
EXACTLY!!! I was thinking that I would have had to excuse myself to get far away from the lightening bolt.
For obama to even mention the name of Jesus Christ is blasphemy.
"A religious person, especially a Christian who is weak, --or stumbles and sins against God after their conversion...

May the MSM get their due for what they’ve done to this country.
Hey, Barry, does the golden rule apply to your own brother over in Kenya?
Or is it pretty selective according to your Liberation Theology, marxist ideology, and Islamic roots?
The “golden rule” or the ethic of reciprocity is not part of the cult of islam. They do not believe anyone but other muslims should treated with any ethical restraint.
Obama has ventured far outside his sphere of competency, which is good for us politically, because he will embarrass himself, repeatedly.
2 Corinthians 11:14
And no wonder, for Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light.
