Oprah & Obama misuse the Lord again
By Grant Swank

Oprah Winfrey tried to win over biblical believers at her extravaganza for Barack Obama.

Oprah pointed to Obama and said that he is "'a man who, as the Bible says, loves mercy and does justly.'"

There you have it: Oprah quoting Scripture to raise up a post-birth abortion and sodomy enthusiast for the Oval Office. These religious liberals will do anything to ensconce their moral relativism in place of biblical absolutes.

Oprah knew she was talking to a crowd on Sunday that had just come from church somewhere. So she then reached into her own religious bio bag, similarly to the way Hillary Clinton uses same, to recite she'd been brought up in the church.

Oprah went on to inform the crowd that she had not only been raised in the church but was "baptized when she was 8-years-old," per AP.

As tongue slippery as Oprah, Obama can slide right in there with the hallelujah jag. So it was that while Oprah was praising the Lord, Obama took center stage to proclaim that he was "'giving all praise and honor to God.'

But that was not the finish. He continued: "'Look at the day that the Lord has made!'"

The hypocritical twosome was not only playing pulpit rummy. They were especially sucking in the black votes, many of which are logged in South Carolina where the Oprah-for-Obama Show was staged on that Sunday afternoon.
