On Fridays broadcast of Hugh Hewitts radio program, Washington Post columnist Charles Krauthammer reacted to remarks made by President Barack Obama at Thursdays National Prayer Breakfast.
Krauthammer criticized Obama primarily for invoking the Inquisition and the Crusades on the heels of the ISIS video showing the burning of a Jordanian pilot.
I actually think he was doing it, hell trot it out when he does the Iran deal, but the more immediate thing was simply to dismiss the barbarism that we saw with the immolation of the Jordanian pilot, and to make everybody believe that this is really nothing out of the ordinary, Krauthammer said. I mean, here, and the bad, this is a combination of the banal and the repulsive.

Surely he's becoming Will Ferrel.
Okay, in case you never hear this from Obama, here is what muslims say when we arent around, this is what they REALLY think, in their own words:

More repulsive than banal.
No he's not, and stop calling him Shirley.
Obola's "new normal".
He did say....

Charles Krauthammer’s very descriptive words, “”Banal and repulsive” are still miles away from the truth...which “Billy” Graham, Jr. stated with particular truth and clarity when he explained Obama’s Muslim beginnings. Till the age of ten, Barack Soetoro was raised and schooled in the Islamic faith. Over looking that fact is over looking the obvious...somewhat analogous to “head in sand” a dangerous position for a Free Nation.
You can see the evil come to the surface in this speech. He’s in full hate mode. All those years in Wright’s pews are coming home to roost.
April 11, 2008 Obama admonished "small town Midwestern farmers who cling to their Bibles and guns".
He does have that anti-Christian thing pretty bad.
This historical treasure is one which should be prominent in our national discussions, especially now, when our philosophical foundations are being challenged, and when the views of a learned man like Dr. Arnett--a Christian Minister and Legislator--delivered in the post-Civil War era, and celebrating the Declaration of Independence, might shed light on centuries-old ideas about America's history. His theme: Righteousness Exalteth a Nation, but Sin is a Reproach to any People."
"Withdraw from Christendom the Bible, the Church with its sacraments and ministry, and Christian morality and hopes, and aspirations for time and eternity; repeal all the laws that are founded in the Christian Scriptures; remove the Christian humanities in the form of hospitals and asylums, and reformatories and institutions of mercy utterly unknown to unchristian countries; destroy the literature, the culture, the institutions of learning, the art, the refinement, the place of woman in her home and in society, which owe their origin and power to Christianity; blot out all faith in Divine Providence, love, and righteousness; turn back every believer in Christ to his former state; remove all thought or hope of the forgiveness of sins by a just but gracious God; erase the name of Christ from every register it sanctifiesin a word annihilate all the legitimate and logical effects of Christianity in Christendomjust accomplish in fact what multitudes of gifted and learned minds are wishing and trying to accomplish by their science, philosophy, and criticism, and what multitudes of the common people desire and seek, and not only would all progress toward and unto perfection cease, but not one of the shining lights of infidelity would shine much longer. Yes, the bitterest enemies of this holy and blessed religion, owe their ability to be enemies to its sacred revelations - to the inspiration and sublimity of that faith which reflects its glories on their hostile natures. They live in the strength of that which they would destroy. They are raised to their seats of opportunity and power by the grace of Him they would crucify afresh; and is it to be thought that they are stronger than that which gives them strength? Can it be supposed that a religion which civilizes and subdues, and elevates and blesses will succumb to the enmities it may arouse and quicken in its onward march? Are we to tremble for the ark of God when God is its upholder, and protector, and preserver?Dr. Arnett, an A.M.E. Minister and Ohio State Legislator, was invited to publish this remarkable sermon commemorating the Centennial of the Declaration of Independence by the following method:
To:
Rev. B. W. ARNETT, B. D.
Dear Pastor:
Will you please prepare your Centennial Thanksgiving Sermon for publication: together with whatever matter pertaining to the colored people of this city, you deem worth preserving.
We make this request of you, believing that the publication of such matter, will be of benefit to the present and succeeding generations.
Yours Respectfully,
J GAITER

Yours is at hand, requesting me to prepare my "Centennial Thanksgiving Sermon" for publication. If you think that my words will be of any advantage to you, and those whom you have the honor of representing, I am willing to leave it to your judgement and will prepare my feeble effort for the press: hoping that, if there is nothing new in it, at least I may awaken some one to follow "the Moccasin tracks of Righteousness, and the Foot Prints of sin on the sands of time," and be better prepared for the duties they owe to themselves, their families, their country, and their God.
I am, yours,
BENJAMIN W. ARNETT

At another point in his long "Thanksgiving Sermon," Dr. Arnett made the following assertion about America and "wherein lies its greatness":
"Let us see what it is that makes us so great; wherein lies our strength. What has made us one of the greatest powers of the earth, politically and intellectually? Have we come to the conclusion that it is Righteousness that exalteth a nation? We have met to-day at the request of the President of the United States, Ulysses S. Grant, and also the Governor of our beloved State, Rutherford B. Hayes. For what? Why call us from our homes? Why come to the house of God? Why not go to the hall of mirth and to the places of amusement to-day? No that is not what they want us to do. We are commanded to go to our 'several places of worship, and there offer up thanks to Kind Providence which has brought our nation through the scenes of another year, and blessed the land with peace, plenty and prosperity.' Then as Americans we have reason to rejoice and congratulate ourselves on the greatness of our beloved country; at this the close of the first hundred years of experimental government of the people, by the people, and for the people. To be a citizen of this vast country is something, and to share in its privileges and duties is more than something." - Dr. Benjaming W. Arnett, St. Paul A.M.E. Church, Urbana, Ohio, Centennial Thanksgiving Sermon, November 1876The entire "Sermon" deserves wide circulation and reading in this critical time in our nation's history.

Why would anyone think or believe that this evil and corrupt muslim could say anything worthwhile or that made sense?
Obola’s “new normal.”
He doesn’t want Americans to know that the Crusades stopped muslims from taking over the mid-east and Europe because that is what he is letting ISIS do now. He says ISIL because the Levant included Israel.
He will allow Iran to get nuclear weapons to destroy Israel and the USA. Valerie Jarrett (Iranian-anti-American) has been dealing with Iran secretly, that is one reason Obama doesn’t want anyone from Israel to address Congress on Mar. 3. WWIII is being set up.
We must keep fighting the barbarians even if what is happening is God’s plan to bring about Armageddon. Pray for the Rapture, and make sure you are ready. The Tribulation that follows will be awful to behold even from Heaven when God’s wrath is poured out on the Earth. Read Revelation, the last book in the Holy Bible, for details.
Who wrote Obama’s speech anyway? John Cleese?
