I've said it before and I'll say it again. If the Obamas had just joined a church once in DC...

...a Ton of the religious shit we've had to endure would have never been nearly as effective.

1. No need. This is way too easy to fix.

Obama just needs to remind everyone he's already spoken on this and it's on the web for anyone who wants to refresh their memory. His opinions on this haven't changed.

He didn't need to, and I'm glad he didn't, cater the religion in anyway. His neutrality while in office with regards to religion has been admirable.

2. It wasn't effective last time.

The fundies would freak about *any* church he joined.

[TheWraith]

6. Yep, that. It's not like they have an actual REASON to freak out. nt

3. I don't think that would stop much

It's not as though most of their arguments along these lines rely on reason ...

4. i disagree

And I am a Christian.

5. Obama should have found the church that one of the right-wingers attend

Scalia, Boehnner, etc. and start attending that church, sitting next to him, and even wrapping his arm around the right-winger in a show of Christian brotherhood just to make him sweat.

7. It isn't about church , it's about uppity blacks.

And it's embarrassing.

8. If he'd joined the NRA maybe they'd like him too.
