"We Do Not Consider Ourselves a Christian Nation"



By Baxter


Hoo, boy — the right-wing maniacs sure are upset about this.

Too funny. Because first of all, they're ignoring the fact that the United States was founded upon the principle of separation of church and state. And second, they're not listening to the rest of what President Obama said.

Which was: "We consider ourselves a nation of citizens who are bound by ideals and a set of values."

And he went on to compliment Turkey as the same kind of nation. (And one, we can't help noting, that George W. Bush was an idiot to alienate.)

We cats PURR at President Obama for bringing sanity back to international diplomacy. And we PURR at the brave poster over at Free Republic, who is saying radical lefty things like, "We are not a theocracy and I hope we never become one." And getting hammered for it, as you can imagine. You go, girl!
