OBAMA in 2004: "We pray to an awesome God in blue states and

. . .and we don't like federal agents sniffing around our libraries in red states."

This quote is from his keynote speech at the 2004 Democratic convention, the one that earned him the admiration of many Americans yet WHENEVER he stays true to the themes expressed in his speech DUers go batshit crazy accusing him of pandering and being too friendly with Republicans. The man is neither pandering or selling out, he is being true to who he is. It seems that many on DU want to dictate how he should be instead of letting the man define himself, the way he did in that 2004 speech.

Fortunately for Obama the anti-faith, anti-unity zealots at DU do not make up even 5% of the Democratic primary voters.

This overreaction to his faith tour in South Carolina is a damn joke.

Flame away.
