Here Gerson's making up how this "issue" occurred and what Walker said.

The Obamamedia is still working to make it more of a "chest wound" than a "paper cut" [when in fact, it's looking more like a gold star].

Billy Graham shows by how he lives that he is a Christian.

But it explains a lot.

Gerson worked for the Bush administration, was recruited by Rove, consistently trashes other conservatives in his op-ed columns, and was instrumental in insulting those who did not support the 2006 "immigration reform" act as racists.

Whenever asked if a person who claims to be a Christian is a Christian, the correct answer is ALWAYS, “I don’t know”.

It is between them and God.

Now, if a person SAYS they are not a Christian, that’s different. Christianity doesn’t have the concept of Taqiyya.

“He who denies Me, I will deny before the Father.”

I find it both amusing and irritating that all these professed conservatives demand that certain Pubbies treat Obama with kid gloves. They actually reveal themselves to be the toadies of liberals. They don’t want to be left out of those Washington elites cocktail parties.

“this one is particularly heavy-handed—the equivalent of saying: As far as I know, my opponent is not a swindler and a degenerate.”

Yup, saying you don’t know if someone is a Christian is exactly the same a calling them a degenerate swindler, because that is what all non-Christians are!?

Gerson is one of those fake conservatives that media love to roll out to show the "unreasonableness" of genuine conservatives.

Concerning obamam's so-called Christianity; actions speak louder than words.

Gerson is (a) rather pathetically four days behind the expired news cycle *snicker* on this and (b) attempts to force Marxist rules of doctrine on Christianity (and notably never applied to journolists!), which is literally laughing out loud absurd...

Desperate measures from a WaPo drone. Walker is really scaring them.

Michael Gerson is a bushie, owned locked, stock and barrel. Gerson attempts to make the case, going along with the (Luegen Presse) Lying Media that Walker's answer to a gotcha question practically disqualifies him for the Presidency and has hurt his own campaign and the Republican campaign in general. Perhaps the Lying Media is going to hate Walker and Republicans even more, but its hard to see how that would make any difference, since they're already at a level of absolute hate. What's even more hate going to do?

Second, who does Gerson use as a witness for Obama's Christian beliefs? Why, lordy be, he uses Obama.

"But here Obama has been as forthright as anyone could be. “I am a Christian, and I am a devout Christian,” he said in a 2008 Christianity Today interview......"

This could hardly be clearer. Well, "if you like your plan, you can keep your plan" could be hardly clearer. Everything that Obama says is either a lie or has an expiration date.

Michael Gerson, here's a free tip, Obama lies, he lies about everything and anything. He lies about his Christian belief. Every thinking Republican knows this. Trying to use Obama as a character witness or factual witness is simply STUPID. But I expect stupidity from the Bushes.

One of my litmus tests for a potential candidate is if the moron lib media attacks, then they must be pretty good and perceived as a threat to them.

Walker handled the media just fine on that issue. They did not like it because he could not be manipulated by them. His answer was honest.

LOL. Gerson’s supposed comparison of Obama’s Christianity to that of Billy Graham’s - as an example of how to handle a persons impressions of the two is laughable. Billy Graham is currently the American that most personifies a true, believing Christian, who has talked the talk and walked the walk. Obama’s name should not be put into the same sentence as Graham’s

Just because Obama said he is a Christian, and then ‘a devout Christian’ - does not make him a Christian. Also, Walker has been preoccupied with all the Wisconsin problems with unions - he may not really remember Obama ever saying he was a Christian. It is certainly possible - that whether Obama has stated he is a Christian - it did not become a memorable moment to Scott walker.

Gerson is implying that Walker’s Baptist upbringing may be the reason for this. Gerson is an idiot, and he, himself, is showing a glaring lack of understanding of what Christianity is and how a Christian should live. Because Obama seems to have a decent family life, are we to assume that that alone is evidence that Obama is a good Christian?

The entire article is lame.

Funny he mentions Billy Graham, when Franklin Graham is going around saying something entirely different. Epic fail here to prove Obama is a Christian.

Exactly! Anybody can proclaim anything but if they claim to be a Christian, then their daily lives will be the proof of it, not some answer given once in an interview.
