Your stereotypical extremists in religion

My thoughts are that people use religion these days for political means and it's really sad (not to mention a bit confusing to me). There's a reason the founders of this country didn't want religion and politics to be morphed together. And this is it.
Very strange experience.

Oh, for Christ's sake! What are you talking about??? Never mind.
Originally posted by DronetekWhat am I talking about? I'm talking about people making up stories about those EVIL CHRISTIANS. Much like you have some fringe people making up stories about Obama, you also how fringe lefties who make up stories about confrontations with Christians.

Its just more of the same from people on the left. Much like the New Yorker cover, implying thats how we on the right see Obama.
Well, Isn't that how the right wing tries to portray Obama.
That is certainly how your hero Rush Limbaugh portrays Obama.
Same with Sean and the rest of Conservative talk show hosts.
Character assassination, swift boat tactics. It's just American Political rhetoric that most thinking people are tired of. I know I am!!

No, it isn't. Thats how the left wing media claims Rush and Sean portray him. Without any actual facts to back it up though. Its yet another example of the left turning people in to victims with outright lies.
I listen to Rush almost everyday while I work and I can honestly says hes never pushed the idea that Obama is a Muslim.

You mean democrats are sick of losing elections. Democrats use all these tactics when it suits them.

Exactly why I think its a BS story. Much like those emails that go around about Obama, the left puts out stories of mean Christians, so that everyone can sit around and bash them without feeling guilty. I see it all the time on other forums.
As a non-Christian,its pretty obvious that people are constantly making stuff up in order to turn Obama in to a victim, or his supporters by proxy. Christians ALWAYS seem to be the enemy, which is odd to me.

On one of these political forums, any mention of Muslims being extremists or anything perceived as negative will be met with flames from the entire forum. However, these same people constantly bash Bush, Christians and anything perceived as "white". This seems to be the same kind of story, meant to build anger against McCain, Christians and white people in general.
