I think you may be confusing supporting’freedom of speech and expression’ with supporting him.

I think the whole thing is a publicity stunt to begin with but now Obama’s tried his best to turn this into a pivotal media event rather than ignoring it and letting them have their 15 minutes on Youtube and then fade into internet wastebin history.

Obama might as well be the one lighting the matches with the way they've blown this story out of the water. The TRULY dangerous thing happening here is the way Obama and Company are attempting to frame a group who proclaim themselves to be Christians (don't know, never heard of this church before) and trying to point the blame at them for actions that may or may not be taken overseas by a bunch of homicidal cult wackos who will shoot at our military with or without provocation anyway. They are already in harm's way daily and nothing will make the Taliban crazier or more PO'd then they already are. This little church just doesn't have that kind of power over people but Obama is trying to make it look like they do.

Now, the question is why? What does Obama and his Muslim friends have to gain by blowing this story out of context and proportion?

I think you are confusing support for freedom of speech and expression with support of all speech and all forms of expression. This logical fallacy is called pars pro toto (taking a part for the whole).
