"Thats Obama's way of silencing anyone who criticizes the radicals in Islam" is one of the stupidest comments of the day.
Albeit subtley, its trying to deflect from what is happening in Islam today by focusing on Christianitys past. trying to make people feel guilty about Christianity so they dont open their mouths. And you got Obama saying this right after you see a guy burned to death. Its his attempt at moral relativism
Actually the entire statement is that he said when making the comparison is, that people have hijacked religion to abuse....
And its not that I dissagree that Bad things have been done by people who have called themselves christians, but, when you have to criticize Christians at the same time your talking about Islamic Terrorists Actions around the world. Your giving your enemy the message that your not really serious about fighting them.
Im sure Egypt and Jordan have no problem calling Islamic Jihadis what they are. Obama does, he has to carefuly go out of his way to point out that there actions have nothing to do with Islam.
Case in point, Obama said 99 percent of Muslims want just want we want. Its a bullshit number he made up, because the real truth is probably around 75or 80 percent at best. But the 25 percent that wants Shariah law imposed around the world is a big problem. Obama is just not talking straight for political expediency
thats what bothers me
