I am pretty sure that I remember when W. was running for President and while President he was accused…of all things…making decisions based on his faith and by praying to God for guidance.  And I also remember that the press and the left blasted W. for trying to impose religion on the US and establishing a theocracy.

THERE IS A WALL SEPARATING CHURCH AND STATE! Isn’t there?

But fast forward eight years, and now Obama not only speaks regularly about his religion, Christianity, but he is appearing IN churches giving political speeches.  Sure McCain has appeared in churches, too.  But the point here is what happened to the left’s opposition of Christianity on public display….and from a politician.

Dr. Mohler states it better than me:

“I was not very hopeful about the Saddleback Civil Forum on the Presidency held at the California megachurch last Saturday night.  In the first place, I am not really comfortable with the idea of hosting such a politically charged event in a church.  No matter how the event is planned and projected, once the event starts it can turn into something far more politically volatile than planned.”

Where’s the outcry? Where’s the rage?  Where the fear that Obama would try to establish a theocracy?  Will Obama tear down that “wall?”

(Now, in my opinion, there is no such wall…and a true study of history of the phrase from a letter penned by Jefferson to the Danbury Baptists reveals the opposite meaning as it used today…)

But let’s assume that there is a wall between church and state, Obama gets to ignore it because….why?

And why does the press and the left not care that ‘religion’ seems to be such a big part of Obama’s life?
