It's not the prevalent view, but it's a very troubling one.
But you just said it as though that's how it is solely.

You aren't portraying your arguments very well, I get the feeling you don't know what you're talking about.

At least I admit I have no substantial knowledge in the topic. I'm quite happy still learning from others however.

I'm just glad you're saying now what you tried to hide earlier. You're just upset about every issue going on. Obama wasn't the politician you thought he'd be despite what he said in the campaign.
I was never an Obama supporter. I'm a Canadian anyway, so I didn't vote.

Funny when you make blind accusations and they prove impossible.

1. I asked you about your comments about the string of Christian comments

2. So you said something about me ignoring your comment of the correct grammar of the word god.

3. If you were talking about the speech then how would you know how god was capitalized.

4. I think you were instead referencing comments I made about Obama saying God Bless America meaning any religions' god blessing that particular person.

I was listing off a number of views that weren't necessarily my own. I either made a mistake writing something (it's 2:30am here) or you need to re-read what I wrote.

His "regular speaking style" is to throw around a bunch of Christian remarks in situations where it might cause huge problems? I guess I hadn't noticed that before but it certainly sounds like a bad idea to me.

He's right, it is viewed by some of the more hardcore Christians as a religious war. And that's what makes Obama's uses of "God" more inappropriate in this speech than usual, because it's misleading and empowering to the idiots who think it's a religious war.

Or because it might appear i think not having voted means that i can't be an Obama supporter?

Most hardcore Christians believe Obama is a Muslim though.


Why would this even be a poll question?
