Barack Obama, he goes into this radical mosque in Baltimore yesterday, he talks about how Islam has always been part of the fabric of America, and I stopped. I said, &#8220;Really?&#8221; I didn\u2019t know that.  I didn\u2019t know that Islam had always been such a major, major part of America.  But, anyway, he\u2019s constantly talking it up, is he not?  President Obama is routinely defending it, talking it up, promoting it. <\/p>\n<p>He talks about how awesome Islam is all the time, one of the most beautiful sounds he\u2019s ever heard is the morning call to prayer in an Islamic country.  He says it\u2019s the most peaceful, most giving religion out there, that the mosque called a prayer one of the most beautiful sounds in the world.  And, at the same time, he\u2019s out there, and look what he says about Christians.  He says he is one. Look, he talks about \u2019em as bitter clingers and they hold on to their guns when they\u2019re nervous.<\/p>\n<p><img class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/Obama-Christians-Cross-2C.jpg\"\/><BR\/>And when they feel abandoned, they go out there and they cling to their religion, and they do all these other things that make the establishment nervous. My question is, given all this, why did he choose to become a Christian?  I\u2019ve always wondered that.  He\u2019s such a defender and promoter of Islam, and, on the other hand, he and his party are constantly denigrating Christians.  I don\u2019t care what the issue is, whether it\u2019s guns, whether it\u2019s gay marriage, any cultural or social issue, or the bitter clinger comments.  I\u2019ve always wondered about this. <\/line><\/p>\n<p>No, I\u2019m not saying anything.  I\u2019m just asking a question. <\/p>\n<p>How did he end up choosing Reverend Wright\u2019s church, given his public statements on all this?  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: Folks, I have a question.
