Why I don't care about Obama's preacher.

Anybody who believes in god is completely 100% insane to me. Just because one is making insane statements that offend other insane people doesn't make their insanity any worse than the self deception necessary to believe in the first place.

In American politics I have to accept that politicians have to wear their church affiliations like a badge. I have to accept that separation of church and state is not a constitutional value most Americans are adherents for.

So in the end, I don't care what Obama's preacher said to him. His preacher is insane, that preacher's true believers are insane, and so are all the other preachers and true believers. Why anybody would be surprised that somebody capable of such self deception would say something so offensive to reality is beyond me.

The reality is that Obama is probably a secular atheist, like most people in power. The reason he didn't know the radical filth coming from this preacher's mouth is because he didn't actually pay any attention to what the preacher was saying. That is comforting to me. He wields religion like every other politician, as a tool to rake in the irrational and the stupid.

The beauty of libs is how dumb they are.  Follow the illogic.

1) So then it follows that Hussein Osama, who claims to be a Christian, is insane.  Make sure that's part of the Dem platform in 2008, will ya?

2) If Osama is truly a "secular atheist," then he's nothing more than a liar about who he really is.  So much for the upstanding image he wishes to portray.

3)  If he didn't pay attention to the radical filth his preacher was saying, how can we expect him to pay attention as president?  We can't.

So Hussein Osama is either insane, a liar, or so unconcerned he wasn't paying attention and was just there for show.

WTG CitizenRob!!

No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government. That one genuinely liberal, genuinely progressive idea — the Why in 1776, the How in 1787 — is what needs to be conserved. We need to conserve that fundamentally liberal idea. That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle

Wouldn't an insincere person manipulating religious rhetoric for secular power be the LAST person you should vote for?

Gee it seems that the op is saying it is fine for Sen.Obama to be lying about his religious beliefs.

I thought they were soooooooo driven to hysterics about lies over on the island.
They seem to say the word a lot anyways.

It's all about the letter that comes after the name . . . and it's only about that letter.

2. Yeah a lot of our atheist founding fathers said that in public too.
   
Yet you look at their private papers and it becomes clear they were as much atheists as was possible at the time.

You're full of shit, moron. There "may" have been a few who were deists, but none were atheists. Any idiot who can read has enough sense to prove your dumbass wrong....unless they too have an agenda. Read the ****ing founding documents.

There's a reason why patriotism is considered a conservative value. Watch a Tea Party rally and you'll see people proudly raising the American flag and showing pride in U.S. heroes such as Thomas Jefferson. Watch an OWS rally and you'll see people burning the American flag while showing pride in communist heroes such as Che Guevera. --Bob, from some news site
