Another Day, Another Obama Embrace of a Right Wing Meme

Well, now Obama is declaring himself to be a "committed Christian".

I understand that he is trying to answer a disgraceful internet rumor about his being a crypto-Muslim. I'm not exactly sure what the best response is, but this is is the worst response.

He is essentially responding to a demand of an oath of Christianity to qualify for public office. You shouldn't capitulate to that, you should fight that.

You need to show the people who make this request are un-American, and they need to be removed from mainstream political discussion through ridicule and justified outrage.

Pandering is not the solution.
