That's much not a explanation, as to where in his words in the o/p, does he say, Jesus would back his tax policy.

So Democrats are of one class, and Republicans another. That's news for many on both sides.

Yeah, Jesus kind of would.

Don't push that BS Obama is a secret Muslim, that's just tin foil hilarity now.
Try reading the context of each of those. Critical reading seems to be a lost skill these days. /sigh

I wouldn't expect you to read his speech, but the next sentence is---

"It mirrors the Islamic belief that those who’ve been blessed have an obligation to use those blessings to help others, or the Jewish doctrine of moderation and consideration for others."
------------------------------
The important parts of his speech mirror this ---

"We can’t leave our values at the door. If we leave our values at the door, we abandon much of the moral glue that has held our nation together for centuries, and allowed us to become somewhat more perfect a union... the majority of great reformers in American history did their work ... because their faith and their values dictated it, and called for bold action -- sometimes in the face of indifference, sometimes in the face of resistance.
This is no different today for millions of Americans, and it’s certainly not for me."

Notice he doesn't say 'non-religious' values or secular values. Obama's supporters In General are hostile to people with values derived from religion, particularly conservative Christians. Those people are supposed to leave values at the door because they're not in tune with the left political agenda.

If Jesus came back tomorrow, I'm sure he'd be horrified by what he'd see...how human greed has caused so many problems both to the human race and to the environment.

Didn't Obama skip all the Prayer Breakfasts in the past and didn't say much when people wondered about it? Oh that's right, this year he has an agenda to push.

Jesus doesn't need to come back to see---He sees everything now.

I 100% believe that he sees it as it's happening.

I blame politicians,Govts and corporations for the way the world is...most people just want to get along and go on about their daily affairs(although you do have a lot of me,me,me and more,more,more types) without bothering anyone or damaging anything...that can't be said about the others.

And your point is WHAT on drilling in the U.S.A.? I guess you've never been to Tx,Ok,La,Il,Oh,In,Wy etc have ya...There are rigs running everywhere.
I meant, as your only form of transporation. We're not in the ME for the people's security. As the left doesn't allow us to produce oil, our children are sent to war for American transportation.

I'm sure you don't get your tons of hay by horse and wagon, or maybe you do.
