Obama Demands Georgetown University Cover Christ Symbols Before Speech

Apparently, it’s only Christian symbols that offend Obama!

And Obama offends this Christian!!!

This is absolute madness. And now I wonder how the evangelical Christians that voted for BHO are feeling. Buyers remorse, maybe! I hope!

ugh ugh ugh ugh ughumgawa

Grade A Hypocrite!

Why not do a address at a secular university. Obama is basically rubbing it in. He has an Islamic indoctrination from his growing up years but has claimed to be a Christian although he has not shown any witness thereof. Aside from his Kenyan Islamic roots, his deliberate shrouding of anything Christian in his presence is troubling.

First, they tell us he did not bow and now the WH in a nonsensical denial is telling us it’s all in our heads, no cover up requested, they just wanted a “consistant backdrop of American flags.”

White House to Brody File: No Georgetown Coverup… Cross or otherwise

The President appreciated the gracious hosts at Georgetown University where he delivered his speech on the state of the economy. Decisions made about the backdrop for the speech were made to have a consistent background of American flags, which is standard for many presidential events. Any suggestions to the contrary are simply false.”

From Mike’s source:

“In coordinating the logistical arrangements for yesterday’s event, Georgetown honored the White House staff’s request to cover all of the Georgetown University signage and symbols behind Gaston Hall stage,” Julie Green Bataille, associate vice president for communications at Georgetown, told CNSNews.com….

“The White House wanted a simple backdrop of flags and pipe and drape for the speech, consistent with what they’ve done for other policy speeches,” she added. “Frankly, the pipe and drape wasn’t high enough by itself to fully cover the IHS and cross above the GU seal and it seemed most respectful to have them covered so as not to be seen out of context.”

The only thing appearing out of context in Gaston Hall was Obama.

Lorraine: YOU ARE CORRECT. I had tried to edit my post previously as I don’t know where my head was when I wrote it, but it went into spam when edited, so I just decided to let it go.

THANK YOU

Missy: So Obama wants the prestige of Georgetown without the trappings…..

@joe: so will you.

This man is NOT Christian, in fact he has the spirit of anti-Christ. My fellow brothers and sisters in Christ know full well what I’m talking about.

Will he have this same problem at Norte Dame?

HE IS EVIL!

A different perspective…

Georgetown University is saying that The White House made the request to cover all symbols around the stage but it’s important to point out at there are dozens of religious symbols in Gaston Hall and those were not covered up. Also, other still pictures from the event show portraits of Jesus in the background which are off center from the stage. In addition, I can tell you that it has been my experience on the campaign trail that advance teams do typically make backdrops as generic as possible. It’s pretty much standard fare to make them that way. Also, the fact that Georgetown University actually has a perfectly fit triangle piece to cover up the cross and monogram suggests that they have done this before at other events. We are waiting on Georgetown to provide us a response to that question.

However – it would have been better to have left it though. If the venue has religious symbols then stick with it or hold it somewhere else.

Ridiculous.. Not even worth commenting on except for one thing.. Mike, you had mentioned there is an energy that just needs tapping into.. I agree. People like Alfonzo (macho sauce) could be and are, a great catalyst. He needs to be supported and posted more often. We need people that are unashamed of the truth and are willing to stand up to the propaganda machine. Hitler used propaganda to his fullest ability. It is hard to fight, and is a very real tactic that the military uses constantly against its enemy, event today. The brain is a powerful thing. Turn it one way, and it justifies the slaughter of innocent babies while at the /very/ same time, convicting maniacs of double homicide in murder cases with pregnant women (makes no sense in any logical argument). Turn it another way, and it becomes a vigilante of justice for truth and righteousness that can block out all that is evil. It seems that the latter is far less common these days.

Yeah you have, Mike. If you haven’t.. man I am proud to introduce:

Thought you might have stumbled across him in all your travels

Check out his earlier videos as well. He is just now getting some major coverage. He is also writing a book (which I am really interested in reading). He’s got the charisma, the faith, the conviction to really make a difference. Like you said, there is an energy pipeline that is just waiting to be tapped into. Good call.

@liam09 Alfonzo is awesome. I thought I saw his videos linked here before.

@Aqua: I think so as well. I have been subscribed to his youtube channel for a while. Its great that his voice is getting louder. Very articulate and charismatic. Like I mentioned to Mike, I am looking forward to reading his book when it comes out. I know he’s been working on it for a while.

THANKS to all who posted links to Alfonzo. This guy is fantastic! I don’t suppose we could convince him to run for office in 2010? Anywhere, any state, in any capacity? I, too, will buy his book – full price so it can top the best-seller charts like Levin’s….

Breaking News: Former Ambassador Mary Ann Glendon declines the Laetere Medal at Notre Dame; Obama related.

Last month, when you called to tell me that the commencement speech was to be given by President Obama, I mentioned to you that I would have to rewrite my speech. Over the ensuing weeks, the task that once seemed so delightful has been complicated by a number of factors.

First, as a longtime consultant to the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, I could not help but be dismayed by the news that Notre Dame also planned to award the president an honorary degree. This, as you must know, was in disregard of the U.S. bishops’ express request of 2004 that Catholic institutions “should not honor those who act in defiance of our fundamental moral principles” and that such persons “should not be given awards, honors or platforms which would suggest support for their actions.” That request, which in no way seeks to control or interfere with an institution’s freedom to invite and engage in serious debate with whomever it wishes, seems to me so reasonable that I am at a loss to understand why a Catholic university should disrespect it
