When you have done nothing that people can look up to, well you at least try to look good. So he is building muscles. It is all about looks.
This guy very probably looks in the mirror every morning and night as he practices his newest “why marxism is good for you” speech. If he had been a rapper instead of a politician, he would wear the most and heaviest gold chains and have the most diamonds.

Mike,
When was it ever said that Obama did not miss a single Sunday in 20 years at Rev. Wright’s church?
Also please note that Ronald Reagan was a sporadic church goer. If I remember correctly he gave the same reason Obama gives in the above article.

Give it a rest. Nitpicking won’t accomplish anything. Ronald Reagan was the best thing to ever happen to this country. By this time next year you won’t even admit you voted for this manchurian candidate.
Is anyone surprised? Really? Has our perception of Obama changed any from what we knew him to be prior to his being elected president? How? He is still the leftist marxist he was a few weeks ago.
Guess Arnold got under his skin at that McCain rally and it’s still smarting.
Truth be told, why should Obama suddenly attend a traditional church?

There are no Black separatist churches in Washington, at least none that have Rev. Wright, can’t just hear any old sermon now can we.

Mike,
So going to a gym is self worship?? NOT!! It’s a good thing he gets to gym often.
Where did you ever get the idea he did not miss a single sunday for 20 years??
assuming again? do you listen to yourself so much your spew becomes truth?
jainphx: separatist churches in Washington? He is not in Washington! He’s in Chicago..
OBAMA: Yep. Every week. 11 oclock service. Ever been there?
I can understand your confusion Dave since Obama changed his tune once the controversy over Wright erupted and claimed “You know, I won’t say that I was a perfect attendee. I was regular in spurts.”
Interesting that he asked if the reporter had ever been there. I guess he was worried he might have to explain some of the more “controversial” sermons he claimed he never heard.
And as for worshipping himself, that might be a stretch, but I doubt it. Considering that on his campaign web site his followers are directed to spend the same 11 AM hour on Sunday meditating for Obama instead of going to church. Perhaps they all do it at the gym?
Does that help Dave and CRAP? Are you now ready to apologize for suggesting I was full of it?

So Hussein O used the church (sic) in Chicago to further his political aims. He also used the organized crime (democrat party) family in Chicago to further his political aims. He can’t go any higher in politics so he if giving the church and the mob the finger like he gave Hillary and McCain on national TV.
Marxist, Socialist, Communist throughout history have used whatever was necessary to obtain power so don’t be shocked that Hussein O conned the entire democrat party (weak minded people filled with hate are easy to con) by using the tactics he was taught by his communist/Islamic mentor’s. The Lame Stream Media has spent the last 8 years pushing democrats into BDS and it worked so well they are now totally insane, and (BDS) has been proven an uncurable mental illness. The Lame Stream Media push worked so well the LSM is now on the verge of collapse, which proves the inmates can’t run the nut house.

(New Republic) Bush is one of the most explicitly religious politicians in American history. Both of his presidential campaigns have used religion to appeal emotionally to voters. The entire philosophy behind his signature slogan, “compassionate conservatism,” rests on the belief that religious communities have a unique ability to tend to the nation’s social ills. And yet, after the flood of coverage around Bush’s first–and only–visit to a neighborhood church during inauguration weekend in Washington, D.C., no one has bothered to report on the president’s whereabouts on Sunday mornings.
Around Washington, D.C., it’s considered bad form to point out that Bush doesn’t regularly attend church. “You don’t have to go to church to be a good religious person,” argue his defenders. And they’re right. They have made much political hay, however, over polls that indicate Democratic voters attend church less frequently than Republicans, so even the most brazen feel compelled to offer explanations for Bush’s absence from church membership rolls.
The very fact that the president doesn’t attend church, some leading conservatives insist, is proof of what a good Christian he is. Unlike certain past presidents they could name but won’t–ahem, cough, Bill Clinton–Bush doesn’t feel the need to prove his religiosity. “This president has not made an issue of where he goes to church,” says Michael Cromartie of the Ethics and Public Policy Center. “I find it refreshing that we don’t have a president coming out of church with a large Bible under his arm.” Conservatives relish this opportunity for a little gratuitous Clinton-bashing. In private, however, they admit the explanation doesn’t hold up. “I really don’t get it,” one prominent Bush partisan told me. “There’s no reason why the president couldn’t find a church around here if he wanted to.”

Mike,
Goons – that’s a little rough even for you. But I know what a tizzy you get in whenever anyone challenges you. Even Obama’s original statement is not equivalent to saying that he *never* missed a service in 20 years. That’s not spin, it’s the simple meaning of words in the English language.
Care to comment on Ronald Reagan?
Akela,
“Nitpicking won’t accomplish anything.”
Yeah, don’t want those pesky little facts get in the way of our ODS.
“By this time next year you won’t even admit you voted for this manchurian candidate.”
Meditate for Obama with candles and incense? Oooh… Hmm…
Sounds like messiah worship to me, Mike. Good point & thanks for that link.
Of course, the time frame requested would preclude the attendance of church services. Why not choose Friday? Oh that’s right, Friday is the Muslim Sabbath and the day for religious gatherings. He wouldn’t want to upset Islam worshipers by suggesting such a thing, would he? And since he had Jewish supporters, for whom Sabbath starts Friday evening and ends on Saturday evening. Yet if you’re Christian and you were also an Obama supporter, I suppose it is okay to have Obama-Biden as the icon you revere on your own Sabbath day. That’s what? 2 of the 10 Commandments one must break every week to count yourself as an Obama devotee? 2 more checks in the “Obama=Possible Anti-Christ” column in my score-book.
Does anyone else see anything blasphemous in this, or is it just me? Please explain to me again how everyone figures him to be a devout Christian when he sets this standard and still does not refute those who call him “Messiah” (Including BTW Farrakhan, who is a Muslim, NOT a Christian).

Yeah Dave I didn’t expect we would get more than spin from you.
What is it about the words “Every week. 11 oclock service” do you fail to understand?
Sounds like he’s claiming regular church attendance here. Oh, and that’s something Reagan never claimed, though I do not know if he attended services after being elected.
The point here, and perhaps I should have stressed this in the original post, is that upon winning an election for the most important job on earth, recent presidents usually attend a church service to help prepare themselves spiritually for the ordeal. Obama went to the gym.
Thanks for confirming that the additional effort I made to clarify things here for your benefit was a waste of time. You’ll understand why in future I don’t make the effort.
If you cannot concede you were wrong when the FACTS are clear then what is the point?

1. We all worship in our own ways
2. It is none of your business what he does religiously. He elected him to be a secular president, not a pope.
3. Maybe you self-serving Pharicees should stop praying so loudly in the temple worry about your own backyard.
So RBH: Did you light a candle and some incense and mediate for Obama at 11 AM this Sunday too?
I realize you don’t care if Obama is a liar (“Every week. 11 oclock service”) or if he worships himself but some of us do.

You know what? Most of my family didn’t attend church yesterday, either. I went, but my family was utterly exhausted and I decided that we’d have some personal devotional time later.
I’m not going to jump on the guy for skipping a few weeks of church. He can’t go ANYWHERE without disrupting things, thanks to the Secret Service and (of course) the media, so why not take a break?

WORDS MATTER? JUST WORDS?
“You know, I won’t say that I was a perfect attendee. I was regular in spurts.” — BHO
Perhaps it was just a misquote, and it should have been “You know, . . . . I was regular in SPORTS.”
So, you see, there really is no problem. It’s all just a matter of perception, … or is that deception? My guess is that depends on which side of the lie your standing on.
But when it comes down to what is important, it isn’t just the words, but the deeds. And if the words are pleasant but the deeds stink, then… Houston, we have a problem.

This blog should be called “grasping at straws” instead of flopping aces.
Wes: I’m glad to hear you don’t pray to Obama. But do you still light the incense and chant?
Cary & Blast: This story is yet another indication of what is important in Obama’s life. Apparently thanking God for his win and asking for spiritual guidance in the toughest job in the world is less important to Obama than some me time at the gym.
You might recall that he choose to go the the gym in Germany rather than visit our injured soldiers in the hospital. I don’t suppose that bothered you either.
C.R.A.P.: I realize you would rather play your little semantic game than address the main point. So perhaps there is more to this post than your Obamaton friends would suggest.
Personally, I’ve thanked God for what I have and asked for guidance in some of the most unlikely places. Never had to prove it to anyone by making a show at church. Perhaps God would have him take care of his physical health by staying in shape – ensuring that his resistance does not go down and that his stamina remains while he embarks in the most stressful job in the world. Don’t underestimate the value of good health and excersise.
I’ve no time to look it up for sure, but I think I recall the visitation issue in Germany being a security concern. Certainly, it would have been good PR for him to go, and of course I was disappointed it didn’t happen.
But him not going to church? Come on! It’s petty and trivial. God is everywhere, not just in church.

Wes,
You’ll get use to Mike after a while if you hang in there. His m.o. is to insult first, think later (if at all). Civility is not his strong suit. Because remember, this is *his* America, not yours.
RAP:
Hi, I’m Dave Hussein Noble, I noticed Mike calls you CRAP. It’s an honor (or maybe its a perverse pleasure) to be insulted by Mike. Join the club. BTW, he has created his own personal syntax and interprets English sentences according to it. Get used to it.
Finally, Blast, with Mike that’s all too often the case. He also likes to create strawmen when your actual argument is too tough to answer.
Oh and Mike, this one’s for you too. Cheers, Captain America.
Dave: You’re not exactly a model of civility. Don’t make me laugh.
Cary: Glad to know you could care less if Obama’s first priority is himself. Sadly, you’ll realize later on how important a more balanced life is. But by then, the damage will have been done.

“Nobody, except Obama knows if his conversion to Christianity is real or not. Although some reports and even Obama have referred to a “baptism”, there doesn’t appear to be any record of a baptism.

Perhaps God would have him take care of his physical health by staying in shape – ensuring that his resistance does not go down and that his stamina remains while he embarks in the most stressful job in the world. Don’t underestimate the value of good health and excersise.
I’ve no time to look it up for sure, but I think I recall the visitation issue in Germany being a security concern. Certainly, it would have been good PR for him to go, and of course I was disappointed it didn’t happen.
But him not going to church? Come on! It’s petty and trivial. God is everywhere, not just in church.
Wes,
You’ll get use to Mike after a while if you hang in there. His m.o. is to insult first, think later (if at all). Civility is not his strong suit. Because remember, this is *his* America, not yours.
RAP:
Hi, I’m Dave Hussein Noble, I noticed Mike calls you CRAP. It’s an honor (or maybe its a perverse pleasure) to be insulted by Mike. Join the club. BTW, he has created his own personal syntax and interprets English sentences according to it. Get used to it.
Finally, Blast, with Mike that’s all too often the case. He also likes to create strawmen when your actual argument is too tough to answer.
Oh and Mike, this one’s for you too. Cheers, Captain America.
Dave: You’re not exactly a model of civility. Don’t make me laugh.
Cary: Glad to know you could care less if Obama’s first priority is himself. Sadly, you’ll realize later on how important a more balanced life is. But by then, the damage will have been done.
I have been trying to post this comment for a few time, it keeps getting stuck in spam everytime:
“Please explain to me again how everyone figures him to be a devout Christian when he sets this standard and still does not refute those who call him “Messiah” (Including BTW Farrakhan, who is a Muslim, NOT a Christian)” (Rocky_B)
How can anyone certify that Obama is a Christian? His path is full of lies.
“Nobody, except Obama knows if his conversion to Christianity is real or not. Although some reports and even Obama have referred to a “baptism”, there doesn’t appear to be any record of a baptism. Chicago-based journalist, broadcaster and critic Andy Martin, when asked about Obama’s baptism, wrote, “I have never been able to obtain any evidence that he was baptized, although I asked for those records.”
Request for info: If anyone, anywhere, can validate Obama’s baptism, please contact me via feedback or email with a source, link or other documentation.

I do not know what I am doing wrong, but most of my post get stuck in the spam filter. I will try it one more time:

I hope this time my comment will pass thru and won’t get caught in spam, one more time:
