Obama Faith, Faith in Obama, Obama in Faith

Keep your friends close and your enemy’s closer.

During Barack Obama’s campaign, a large progressive religious movement seemed to back Obama as he made claims to reduce troops in Iraq and shift the war front to Afghanistan. He also made promises to reduce abortions (while still supporting the right to choose) through programs of education on Abstinence, and oppose gay marriage.

Now with Emanuel, Clinton, Greg, and Axelrod amongst many others what will become of the Obama Faith?

So what does he do now?

The new Obama staff picks, if they have their way, will not allow Obama to make good on these promises. The positions of these staff picks differ greatly from the promises that Obama has made.  So what will the religious progressive right do now?

They wait; they watch . . . and don’t take any of the crap Obama will dish out.

They must hold him accountable and keep their Obama faith in check.

My Muslim Faith!

Barack Obama was interviewing with George Stephanopoulos on ABC when he slips up and says “My Muslim Faith”. He quickly follows the lead from Stephanopoulos and corrects himself by stating “My Christian Faith”.

When Obama speaks from his heart truth can come out.

If this isn’t a Freudian slip, I am not sure what would be.
