Obama Is Deef In Criticizing Irish Religious Education

If we were the  Irish, we would tell Obama to mind his own business and clean up his backyard before attempting to tell others how to live. In other words, if you live in a glass house, you should not throw stones!


Where does our "moralizer in chief" get off by criticizing others when he has so many problems at home? He is deef!  Yes, that word is spelled correctly. We mean "deluded elitist egocentric fraud."  

This President (NSA, are you getting this) is so out of touch, so deeply into himself and the self deluded that he does not even know who he is except to believe that he is the all knowing, all seeing manager of the world. In other words, he is the most dangerous man in the world.  Any leader who does not know his limits cannot be trusted with the mantle of leadership.  They will always exceed their delegated powers, run ram-shod over their opponents and in the end hurt the very people who elected him.

So it goes with Obama. The exploding scandals are only a surface view of the real damage being done to the country. What is being done on a daily basis that has not yet bubbled to the surface has to scare any red blooded American.  An example should suffice. When it became apparent that Susan Rice could not get through the approval process for Secretary of State, Obama blatantly appoints her to head the National Security Council which does not need approval. That was sort of a "stick it in your eye" to his and her opponents but it says more about him.

It says that no matter what Congress or the American people want, he will do what he wants. One can only wonder what secret agreements he has made with Russia, China  or any other country to further HIS goals. America be damned, it is Obama who is important.

Self delusion can lead one to great heights as in the case of Obama, however, some humility, some understanding of the greatness of the American experiment must accompany the elevation to the highest position  in the land. This President has none. He believes only in himself, he thinks of no one else and he feels he is better than everyone else, this makes him an awkward, inelegant, self-deluded fraud. In other words deef! 

For our President to moralize in Ireland and not in the Arab countries which are far more divided than the Irish is a great example of his deef-ness!  Try to be a Christian or Jew or Sikh or Hindu or any other religious minority in those countries. It is nearly impossible. Yet he feels impelled to speak against a country which has made great strides in bridging the gap between Catholics and Protestants.  Deef-ness personified.

Most thinking Americans have recognized his deef-ness, when are the rest going to wake from their sleep.

Obama Offends Catholics in UK: Says Religious Schools Divisive

President Barack Obama angered some proponents of Catholic education during his visit to Ireland this week when he told a Belfast audience that towns will remain divided “if Catholics have their schools and buildings, and Protestants have theirs.”

An article, which subsequently appeared in the Scottish Catholic Observer carried the headline, “U.S. President Undermines Catholic Schools after Vatican Prefect Praised Them.”

The article said that Obama “made an alarming call for an end to Catholic education in Northern Ireland,” and quoted from recent remarks of the Vatican’s Archbishop Gerhard Müller, who had said that Catholic education was “a critical component of the Church.”



Dr. Matthew Bunson, senior correspondent for Our Sunday Visitor and author of the new book, “Pope Francis,” tells Newsmax that the president should have chosen his words more carefully and he pointed to the contribution that Catholic education has made to bringing about the 15-year-old peace in the once troubled region.

“While I understand the background — the backdrop of his remarks in terms of the painful history of the religious strife in northern Ireland — it is unfortunate that his remarks could be construed by some as an attack on religious education,” Bunson explained.

“It’s an opportunity I think though to make note of the very significant role that religious education — especially Catholic education has played — in ending the strife in Northern Ireland, in particular the role of Catholic educators in helping to raise new generations in Ireland, who recognize the importance of cooperation, of peace and that is something that’s worth celebrating.”

Conservative website Breitbart.com was quick to label Obama’s remarks as a “gaffe” based on the “fact that Obama did not consider the sensitivities of his audience — or that he inadvertently revealed his own anti-religious prejudice.

“To travel to a city troubled by conflict, and to then insult the members of at least one of the two communities, is not only a gaffe, but a serious diplomatic error,” according to the website.

Obama arrived in Northern Ireland Monday morning after an overnight flight from Washington.

Following his speech to about 1,800 students and adults, he flew to a lakeside golf resort near Enniskillen, where he met with other leaders of the Group of 8 industrial nations on Syria, trade and counterterrorism.

The president also told the Belfast audience that peace in Northern Ireland is a "blueprint" for those living amid conflict around the world, while acknowledging that the calm between Catholics and Protestants will face further tests.

With respect to Catholic education, Obama said “If towns remain divided — if Catholics have their schools and buildings, and Protestants have theirs — if we can’t see ourselves in one another, if fear or resentment are allowed to harden, that encourages division. It discourages cooperation.”

Ashley McGuire, a senior fellow with The Catholic Association, also viewed Obama’s remarks as an attack on Catholic education.



“Catholic education is a longstanding tradition and a gift to society at large,” she said. “Why the president chose to attack that tradition is beyond comprehension and represents his continuing effort to relegate religion to the private sphere.”
