RSSObama Divides While Accusing Others Of The Same
J.J. Jackson* | June 25, 2007
Barack Obama has learned his talking points well. Karl Marx would be proud of this man who has been running around the country promoting every ounce of collectivism that he himself preached.
HARTFORD, Conn. (AP) - Sen. Barack Obama told a church convention Saturday that some right- wing evangelical leaders have exploited and politicized religious beliefs in an effort to sow division.”Somehow, somewhere along the way, faith stopped being used to bring us together and started being used to drive us apart. It got hijacked,” the Democratic presidential candidate said in remarks prepared for delivery before the national meeting of the United Church of Christ.
“Part of it’s because of the so-called leaders of the Christian Right, who’ve been all too eager to exploit what divides us,” the Illinois senator said.
“At every opportunity, they’ve told evangelical Christians that Democrats disrespect their values and dislike their church, while suggesting to the rest of the country that religious Americans care only about issues like abortion and gay marriage, school prayer and intelligent design,” according to an advance copy of his speech.
So here is Obama complaining about others “dividing” America while he is basically setting up his campaign as “us against them”.
News flash for Barack Obama and other liberals. There is nothing wrong with being divided. The problem is when you are divided in order to promote false ideals and bad ideas. Much like the political left is from the rest of America.
Yes Obama, Christians DO believe that Democrats disrespect their values. Because their values include not stealing that which belongs to others through government force, not murdering such as liberals want to do with abortion, and not coveting that which others have … which generally leads to the stealing I previously mentioned. You know, things like that that are against one of the core tenants of the CHRISTIAN faith; the Ten Commandments?
But then again with the kind of tripe your church has been caught promoting, specifically racism, I can see why you need to continue to try and divide and distort.
Facts. They kill liberalism dead.

Violation of church and state?

And send an email to Americans United for the Separation of Church and State (americansunited@au.org) demanding that the UCC lose it’s 501(3(c) tax exempt status because:
From the Americans United for the Separation of Church and State perspective, a political speaker at a religious event has one of two distinct roles: Either they are 1) speaking as a candidate for office or 2) speaking as a non-candidate. If Obama was speaking as a non-candidate (since he was supposedly invited over a year ago before he declared) then his reference to campaign pledges if elected to office clearly violates AU’s standard for separation. If he was speaking as a candidate, AU’s standards call for equal access by the other candidates for the same office… which didn’t appear to happen. In either case, his speeches before the Iowa Conference and the General Synod were a violation of separation by AU’s own standards.
From the UCC perspective, there should be no confusion as they publicly advocate for the same rules on separation as AU. Furthermore, UCC leaders and conference ministers understood Obama’s status as a declared candidate for some time and, by virtue of their reporting on the Iowa speech a week earlier, also understood that Obama’s address would be a campaign speech. The UCC clearly and knowingly violated AU’s standard for separation.
Barack is just your typical liberal. Accuse everyone else of what you are doing and hope no one notices.
you ought to listen to the keynote.
