Obama Admin Opposes Prayer at WWII Memorial
Nov 4, 2011
Republican lawmakers and conservative activists are expressing outrage after the Obama administration announced its objection to adding President Franklin Roosevelt’s D-Day prayer to the World War II Memorial in Washington, D.C.
The objection was noted during a congressional hearing on Rep. Bill Johnson’s (R-OH) bill – the “World War II Memorial Prayer Act of 2011.â€
“It is unconscionable that the Obama administration would stand in the way of honoring our nation’s distinguished World War II veterans,†Johnson said. “President Roosevelt’s prayer gave solace, comfort and strength to our nation and our brave warriors as we fought against tyranny and oppression.â€
Roosevelt asked the nation to join him in prayer as U.S. and allied troops launched the invasion that led to the defeat of Nazi Germany. He asked God to give the allied troops courage and faith, saying, “With thy blessing we shall prevail over the unholy forces of our enemy.â€
But Robert Abbey, the director of the Bureau of Land Management, said any plaque or inscription of the prayer would “dilute†the memorial’s central message and therefore “should not be altered.â€
“It is not a judgment as to the merit of this new commemoration, simply that altering the Memorial in this way, as proposed in HR 2070, will necessarily dilute this elegant memorial’s central message and its ability to clearly convey that message to move, educate, and inspire its many visitors,†Abbey said in written testimony.
The nation continues its descent into the black hole of communism.
No Christian anything in this administration (http://radio.foxnews.com/toddstarnes/daily-dispatch/obama-admin-opposes-prayer-at-wwii-memorial.html)

There can be no public display of other religions or religious objects in an Islamic country/society.
Obama is a damn Muslim.

How would including the text of Roosevelt's prayer which is a historical fact dilute the message of a historical memorial?

Think about it. They are rewriting history.
