(8-15-08) "Christian PAC Ad Emphasizes Obama's Faith and Family" (Wash Post) - the new Obama "religious" ad...

[Michelle M]

OK, now I have seen it all.

Noticeably missing is Reverend Wright. Where IS he, anyway? How come he's not on here singing Obama's praises? Geez, he would add such flair!!

Don't you know that you can't mix religion and Obama in the same ad without reminding America of Wright? Everyone's gonna notice it right off.

This is truly sickening. No one will buy it.

Watch it here:

The sad part is, is that he thinks people will buy into his new religious beliefs. It's too late for that.

I'll pull it:

YouTube - FAMILIES

If you're not sick enough yet, check out some of those Obamabot responses - I think the video is beyond hypocritical, even for him.

BARF. If there is a God, Hillary will be our 44th President.

Nice to see the Obama 400 bloggers are alive and well posting "Barack is a good christain" followed by John McCain character smears all over the Washington Post just like they used to with HRC. You can spot their work a mile away.

Yes, he thinks we pawns are stupid! It doesn't take mega doses of Ginkgo Biloba to remember his 20 year committment to his Unity Church and his dear friend, Rev. Wright!

Most Christians already know he's lying. He has never talked about when he was converted, or saved or baptized.

Christians would not allow a baby that was to be aborted be born and let it lay there until it died and that's what he advocates. He also considers it a punishment if a girl gets pregnant. Teach her about birth control or abstinance.
Being married to the same person doesn't make you a Christian either.

I didn't see a family in that video that looked like mine. ;)

[Michelle M]

Thanks for embedding.

I commented, however, the comments are being moderated.

That explains why they are all PRO- Obama.

Real freedom of speech going on over there!!!

:eek::D:D:D:p

Disgusting -- how long has it been since a Presidential candidate blatantly used his children to try to up his poll numbers? I wonder how long it will take a 527 to splice this ad with Rev Wright and Father Pfleger snippets.

[SadStateOfAffairs]

How come they didn't ask Rev. Manning to help with this video??

[santafek]

PUKE

[SugnSpicesmom]

I can't watch it. I just can't. But, I'm hoping the GOP will use this and compare it with the Rev. Wright videos with the background of how long Obama sat there in Wright's church.

There is a special place in hell for Obama for trying to fake his Christianity.

TOO LITTLE AND AWAAAAY TOOOO LATE

[Tea toaD]

This coming just in time for his and JM's one on one with Rev Warren. The timing is perfect.

[abc123]

or is that remark about how he stayed with his family a slam on the black community with respect to black men not raising their kids, or am I reading to much into it. the remark is toward the end of the video. the comment starts at the 25 second mark.

Obama admits it's not easy for politicians to talk about faith.

"Part of the reason I think it's always difficult for public figures to talk about this is that the nature of politics is that you want to have everybody like you and project the best possible traits onto you," he says. "Oftentimes, that's by being as vague as possible, or appealing to the lowest common denominators. The more specific and detailed you are on issues as personal and fundamental as your faith, the more potentially dangerous it is."

Michelle Obama Solidifies
Her Role in the Election
By MONICA LANGLEY
February 11, 2008

Mrs. Obama tells her staff to work her campaign appearances around her daughters' activities -- ballet recitals, soccer games, parent-teacher conferences, Beyoncé concert. Her peace of mind improved greatly when her mother decided last summer to retire and help take care of the girls, Malia and Sasha.

She says when her husband makes it home -- for only 10 days in the last year -- he assumes his usual household tasks. "When Barack's home he's going to be part of this life," Mrs. Obama says. "He doesn't come home as the grand poobah."
