| Rev. Louie Giglio, who had been announced as the pastor to give the benediction at the presidential inauguration, has now pulled himself out of the ceremony, after criticism of his previous anti-gay comments and actions, sources confirmed to ABC News. Giglio, who is now Pastor at Passion City Church in Georgia and his role at Obama’s second inauguration was first announced Tuesday. But the liberal website Thinkprogress reported Wednesday on audio of Giglioi delivering a sermon in the mid-1990s in which he said homosexuality is a sin and advocated gay “recovery.” Here is one passage from Giglio’s mid-90s

Comments:
Ahh yes, liberals are so tolerant of free speech. s/o This is so very tiresome. So much for a president who represents all the people.

So very hard to pander to all the "special" interests groups. Whats a liberal to do, when one group dislikes another group.

The humanity! A minister who speaks of the biblical notion of sin, and of renouncing sin. You can´t have such swine speaking in public, can you?
Also, one must laugh at liberals who have to go back as much as half a century to smear someone like Romney, and almost twenty years for this guy, but people are crazy for wanting to know facts about their president.

"Giglio" is Italian for "Lily" - - so the man is Louie Lily.
Sounds like he should be on the other side of the gay controversy - - or is he already?

What Obama was asking this conservative pastor to do is the same thing he got Rick Warren to do for him: to give cover to his anti-Christian administration so the brain dead sheep and weak kneed pastors could continue to fool themselves to thinking they were still considered citizens of this country by its rulers. I´m glad he´s out. He never should have volunteered in the first place. Let all "blessings" invoked on this administration be made by apostates and heretics.

Where does one begin to understand Obama, those associated with him.
Who, in their right mind, would want to be a part of an administration that uses anyone they can to their advantage as well as continually desecrate what we once held sacred - God´s Word!
Any true believer/pastor would never agree to be a part of an adminstration that denies God´s Word.
We are set up for another battle.
This war is won/lost in the heavenlies.
Is God or Satan the leader of this country?
Has Obama changed his mind concerning God´s Word or did he ever know it?
There are more questions than answers!
These should have been clarified "before" Obama was elected President!
Every Pastor should be assured of his Faith/Trust in God before he ever seeks to lead his congregation.
Obama is not concerned about God´s will/way.
Obama is solely dedicated to self-adulation, Satan´s way too - wanting to be like God. Did he not tempt Eve by saying she would be "like" God, not "dependent" upon Him.
Satan´s tactics have not changed because they work in the hearts/minds/souls/spirits of those power-hungry and self-centered!
Pray for America!
Only God can save US!
What if Obama has a party and no one comes!
Obama is also "stealing US blind" and we don´t have the "courage" to stop him.
Congress is beyond disapproval. They are useless in this present administration.
If we don´t stand for something (Righteousness), we will fall for anything -(Obamacare)!
God bless this Pastor who backed out. Too bad it took so long! Does he not know who Obama is?
Anyone can see Obama´s agenda is not God-centered!
Pray - Pray - Pray - our only Salvation!

Most black pastors have spoken out against the sin of the homosexual lifestyle at some point in their preaching career. If they find a preacher who hasn´t, chances are he is gay himself.

Bill Ayers believes President Obama gets a “failing grade” for his presidency, and should be tried for “war crimes,” along with all living presidents who have engaged in acts of “terrorism” abroad. Sitting down for an episode of RealClearPolitics’ “Morning Commute,” Ayers told host Charlie Stone that, on policy, Obama receives a “failing grade” along with the “F-minuses” he’s given previous presidents like George W. Bush and Richard Nixon. “I don’t think he’s let anybody down,” Ayers added, pointing to how during the 2008 presidential campaign then-Senator Obama consistently declared himself to be a “middle-of-the-road, pragmatic politician.”

National Security Agency Director Gen. Keith Alexander told the House Intelligence Committee on Tuesday that the NSA whistleblower that leaked classified information on the agency’s surveillance program caused “irreversible and significant damage” to the nation and helped America’s enemies. “I think it was irreversible and significant damage to this nation,” Alexander said Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.) asked how damaging it was “to the national security of the American people that this trust was violated.” “Has this helped America’s enemies?” Bachmann asked Alexander. “I believe it has, and I believe it will hurt us and our allies,”

John Boehner (R-Ohio) said he might lose his job as House speaker over immigration reform, but he insisted he will not bring a bill to the House floor that does not have majority support of both Republicans and Democrats. Following the Republican conference meeting on Tuesday, Boehner was asked: “Rep. Rohrabacher said that if you bring immigration reform to the floor without the support of the GOP conference you will lose your job (as speaker). Do you think that’s accurate?” “Maybe,” Boehner said after a long pause, to laughter from reporters.

Rev. Al Sharpton, host of MSNBC’s “PoliticsNation,” said Friday that Republicans are “scared,” because the party is “built on fear and obstruction.” “This is who they are. They are scared, because the party is built on fear and obstruction, and no matter how hard they try, it’s not working,” said Sharpton after reading a tweet from Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) that bragged about being “Obamaphobic.” “If supporting real immigration reform, not path to citizenship is ‘Obamaphobia,’ guilty as charged. RT is you’re a fellow ‘Obamaphobic!’” Cruz tweeted in response to Sen. Robert Menendez’s (D-N.J.) accusation that Cruz has

In line with Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel’s order for troops to have their workplaces searched for “degrading or offensive” materials -- part of an attempt to curb sexual assault in the military -- the Navy will inspect even its bathrooms. While what’s degrading or offensive is open to interpretation, the material can include song lyrics and “inappropriate cartoons.” In a memo sent on June 13, Navy Secretary Ray Mabus ordered that all sailors, Marines, cadets and civilian employees have their workplaces searched by June 28.

Last Friday, Organizing for Action exploited the six-month anniversary of the Newtown shooting. They mobilized their supporters for a series of anti-gun rallies across the country. In San Bernardino, that call to action was answered by three people. Ryan Hagen of the Sun, a local paper, wrote on June 14 about the failed rally. On Flag Day growing up, I used to always wave a flag with my grandson, and it hit me that the victims of that horrible tragedy won’t ever be able to do that,” said Curtis Lewis, the group’s gun violence prevention coordinator.

While unrest in Turkey continues to capture attention, more subtle and more telling events concerning the Islamification of Turkey — and not just at the hands of Prime Minister Erdogan but majorities of Turks — are quietly transpiring. These include the fact that Turkey’s Hagia Sophia museum is on its way to becoming a mosque. Why does the fate of an old building matter? Because Hagia Sophia — Greek for “Holy Wisdom” — was for some thousand years Christianity’s greatest cathedral. Built in 537 A.D. in Constantinople, the heart of the

Amid a steady rise of backlash, Edward Snowden, the 29-year-old former National Security Agency contractor who was the source of a spring of leaks about the agency´s surveillance methods, conducted a live chat on The Guardian´s website Monday morning. Judging from some of the pointed questions he´s been asked and the reaction to newly leaked revelations over the past few days, it´s clear that much of the sympathy and support Snowden had built up for his early exposures is eroding. Many Americans supported his decision to leak information about a pair of National Security Agency surveillance programs, which, he detailed, gathered information

As NewsBusters reported last week, former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin called out vulgarian comedian Bill Maher for referring to her Down Syndrome son Trig as "retarded." On ABC´s The View Monday, co-host Barbara Walters astonishingly defended Maher saying, "I don´t think he intended it to be mean-spirited" (video follows with transcript and commentary): WHOOPI GOLDBERG: At a recent standup show in Las Vegas, comedian Bill Maher apparently called Sarah Palin’s five-year-old developmentally-challenged son Trig retarded. And Sarah blasted him on Twitter as a bully. Is that, is it, is he a bully? Is he a bad, what is he?

Five months into his second term, allies and enemies are as confounded as ever about who President Obama really is. Is he the dyed-in-the-wool liberal that his biggest supporters and critics suggest? Or is he a pragmatic, even cynical, politician who cares more for his popularity than taking risks for his ideological goals or living up to his rhetoric? Even in the short period since his reelection, Obama has provided evidence to support conflicting interpretations. His efforts to pass immigration reform, the unsuccessful push for stricter gun controls and tax hikes on high earners buttress the case for Obama-as-ideologue.

Jeb Bush says he’s not worried that his work toward comprehensive immigration reform and his ties to the GOP establishment will alienate conservatives and negatively impact a potential 2016 presidential campaign, referring to critics as “the chirpers.” “If I decide to run for office again, it will be based on what I believe, and it will be based on my record,” the former Florida governor said in an interview with the Christian Broadcasting Network’s David Brody. “And that record was one of solving problems completely from a conservative prospective.” Bush (R) pointed to his conservative

Politico’s Playbook has an excerpt from a new Ryan Lizza piece from the New Yorker that is not yet online. It contains a passage on the back-and-forth between labor and the Chamber that has a quote from a Rubio staffer that is going to raise eyebrows, to say the least: “There are American workers who, for lack of a better term, can’t cut it. There shouldn’t be a presumption that every American worker is a star performer. There are people who just can’t get it, can’t do it, don’t want to do it. And so you can’t obviously discuss that publicly.” Here is the entire context:

Iran is preparing to send 4,000 troops in to Syria to support Syrian President Bashar al-Assad in the wake of America´s announcement it will be providing ´military aid´ to the country´s Muslim rebels. President Barack Obama made the pledge earlier this week after the U.S. claimed it found ´conclusive evidence´ Assad´s regime has used chemical weapons against the rebel forces--which includes the most extreme Sunni Islamists--and has called for Britain and France to back the move. While Britain hasn´t made a guarantee either way as yet, more than 350 Royal Marines are being sent to Jordan

Is Marco Rubio, R-Fla., getting played by Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y.? During his interview with ABC’s Jonathan Karl this morning, Rubio didn’t even seem to understand what that meant. “Are you being played by the Democrats?” asked Karl. “Is Chuck Schumer playing you?” “I don’t — I quite frankly, I don’t even know what that means,” Rubio replied. “Is he using you?” Karl continued. “Is he using you to try to accomplish something that the Democrats want and is not — not a conservative bill?” Rubio responded that immigration reform was a bi-partisan issue that “all Americans
