Rick Santorum In 2008: Obama Joined Church For Power
Santorum is at the center of a storm right now over his comment that Barack Obama follows a “phony theology” and an earlier suggestion that mainline Protestants aren’t Christian. But this isn’t the first time he’s addressed Obama’s faith. In August 2008, Santorum suggested that President Obama only joined a church to launch his political career: “Faith was an avenue for power.” Santorum added, “I never judge someone’s faith personally.”

KeyboardCommando a year agoIt’s reported that on Saturday in Ohio,” …Mr. Santorum described the ‘president’s agenda’ as being “about some phony ideal, some phony theology. Not a theology based on the Bible.” After reviewing the old YouTube videos of Rev. Wright and Mr. Obama on “Black Liberation Theology” (those are precious little gems, aren’t they?), I fully agree with Mr. Santorum’s comments. You remember Rev. Wright, the former pastor of the president for twenty years? This never really had a chance to develop because the main stream media (you guys) wouldn’t follow it before the Rev. Wright was thrown under the bus by then candidate Obama. Candidate Santorum did go on to say “I’m suggesting — well, obviously, as we all know in the Christian church, there are a lot of different stripes of Christianity,” he said. “I’m just saying he’s imposing his values on the church, and I think that’s wrong. If the president says he’s a Christian, he’s a Christian.” He was much more generous than me. But , then, I’m not running for office!

glenchilada a year agoSo, he says Obama joined the ‘most popular’ church in his area for political reasons. Hmmmmm… Just a crazy thought here, but maybe the church was popular because people it was good, and that’s why the Obama’s chose it.
