Do You Remember?

Do you remember the story about the old preacher who challenged his congregation with these words: "If you were arrested for being a Christian, would there be enough evidence to convict you?" I'll take this a step further. What if you claimed to be a Christian and nobody believed you? 
In recent polls that have done, as many as one-quarter of all Americans believe that President Obama is actually a Muslim, despite the fact that during his campaign he put enormous effort into convincing the voters that he was a Christian. 
I wonder why no one on the Left was howling about Senator Obama's claims of faith in God and His Son Jesus Christ? 
When George W. Bush, early in his campaign, told reporters that the person who had most profoundly affected his life was Jesus Christ, it almost derailed his campaign! The media took his faith at face value and constantly threw it back at him. 
And what about John Ashcroft,his Attorney-General, a devout and open evangelical Christian? When it was discovered that Mr. Ashcroft held personal Bible studies in his DOJ office, the Left and the press demanded his resignation. Yet, when Mr. Obama's deputy press secretary insisted to reporters aboard Air Force One last week that, indeed, the President is "obviously a Christian [because] he prays every day," every member of the Mainstream Media was as quiet as a church mouse! 
Would this be considered 'double standard'?" But this is what political correctness, social Marxism, and thought-control does to a society.
And than we have the controversy over the Ground Zero Mosque, Formerly called "Cordoba House," then "Park 51 Mosque", and now we learn it's not really a mosque, but a community center with a small prayer space! '
What is this administration smoking, anyway?
The truth about Islam doesn't quite measure up to the good press that Islam has been getting lately. 
It seems the more our national self-image is battered and abused, the more we cozy up to our abusers. Can we not see what is happening in Europe to realize that we need to confront our own internal dangers before they get too big to handle. 
And than we have “Earl” out in the Atlantic, on the eve on the “Peace Talks” in Washington.
