Well, Wikileaks is out and it has been suggested to me that you might like a thread devoted to how the State Broasdcaster covers it? Will we get pro-Obama spin? Over to you... During his entire Presidency, the BBC criticized, or gave plenty of unchallenged air time to critics of, George Bush's religious faith. Sure, he wore it on his sleeve up to a point, but no more than many people in the US. For many people, this is an act of humility, an acknowledgment of a power greater than oneself. This kind of behavior is an anathema to most at the BBC, so it was always treated with disdain. I'm sure everyone remembers Jeremy Paxman asking Tony Blair if his shared sense of faith with Bush bonded them, and giggled when asking if Blair had actually prayed with him. Most at the BBC never really understood Bush's religious leanings, and in fact were quite frightened and concerned about the damage he did because of it. Justin Webb's criticisms over his stopping federal funding for using embryos for stem-cell research come to mind. In any case, the BBC was never shy about shining a harsh light on the religious faith of George Bush. Now the current President also has a problem about public perception of His religious faith. We've all heard the BBC reminding us constantly that so many foolish United Statesians think He's a Muslim. The fact is - and we learned this just recently on Today - that the President was now Christian because He went through a conversion. With this in mind, one would think the astute producers in the BBC News division would leap at the chance to prove once and for all that these fools are wrong and that the President is really a Christian, and has just as much faith as George Bush. On Friday, the President gave an interview in which He stated that He prays "every night" and reads the Bible. Shock horror and diddums! The BBC New Yorks studios - along with most of the NY UN rat palace - have an infestation of bed bugs. I'll refrain from the cheapest gibes, but this makes news, of course, only because it's the usual BBC self-obsession. But actually, bed bugs are a growing problem across the whole of New York. And what you won't read or hear on the BBC is that many believe that the real cause is America's obsession with environmentalism. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) banned the pesticide DDT in 1972 after Rachel Carson's book Since Silent Spring falsely claimed it was too dangerous to use. DDT is the most effective weapon against the pesky bedbugs. So cleaners can no longer eradicate them effectively when they are found, and now, after years of gradually building up numbers, they are spreading like wildfire. A good account of the saga ishere. What you won't also read on the BBC is that DDT is still the most effective treatment against malaria. The greenies have hampered its use in many developing countries and the consequence is millions of deaths. Rachel Carson, the EPA, the tranzis - and the BBC for failing to speak the truth - all have blood on their hands. I won't say I'm pleased that they are suffering bed bug bites but sometimes I think there is a God. Update: There are those say that bedbugs miraculously "developed resistance" to DDT before Rachel Carson (econuts have an answer to everything). But if you read this post and its responses, you will see why that's a load of baloney, too.

God And Man At The White House
Praying and reading the Bible are part of his everyday life, President Obama said in a wide-ranging interview broadcast Friday. Speaking with Barbara Walters, Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama also described how they involve their daughters in daily prayer. "Michelle and I have not only benefited from our prayer life, but I think the girls have too," the president told Walters. "We say grace before we eat dinner every night. We take turns."
What a sickening display of religiosity, eh? I'm sure all the comedians on various BBC shows will be taking notes. And it gets worse: When asked if he prays himself, the president said: "I do. Every night."
Oh dear, oh dear. I await the howls of laughter echoing through the halls of Broadcasting House. Why isn't the BBC reporting this? Why isn't the BBC making a fuss about His faith? Could it be that they don't like such low behavior and don't wish to call attention to it? Does this make the President less appealing to them and their fellow travelers? As they censor nearly every other bit of news which might cause consternation at the right kind of dinner parties, I won't hold my breath on this one. But wait, there's more new proof on offer that the President is not a Muslim. It's Haj time in the Mohammedan world, and the President's grandmother has been caught lamenting that He needs to come back to the fold: Grandma prays for Obama to embrace Islam The Kenyan grandmother of US President Barack Obama who was on Haj pilgrimage to Makkah has said that she prayed for the American leader to convert to Islam, a newspaper said on Thursday. "I prayed for my grandson Barack to convert to Islam," said Haja Sarah Omar, 88, in an interview with Al-Watan daily held in Jeddah after she had performed Haj. The paper said that Haja Omar was in Saudi Arabia on pilgrimage along with her son, Obama's uncle Saeed Hussein Obama, and four of her grandchildren as guests of the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques.
And there you have it: Incontrovertible proof that the President is not a Muslim. Plus, there's new proof that the President prays every night, reads the Bible, and seems to be as comfortable with His faith as Bush. BBC: ZZzzzzzzzzIS THERE A GOD?
