During his recent trip to Europe and the Muslim nation of Turkey, President Barack Obama told the Europeans that the U.S. has been "arrogant, derisive and divisive." During an address to the Turkish Parliament, President Obama also said, "We [Americans] do not consider ourselves a Christian nation...." Rev. Jesse Lee Peterson, Founder and President of BOND Action, Inc., released the following statement responding to the President's remarks:
"President Obama is mischaracterizing America's great history as a force for good which is a direct result of our nations Judeo-Christian values. It's disturbing that just days before Easter, Obama would go to a predominantly Muslim nation and deny the truth about our Christian identity.
"Mr. President, your apology tour will not deter al- Qaeda. You are weakening this country and inviting our enemies to attack. Obama's comments degrading America sounds like a page out of Rev. Jeremiah Wright Jr.'s black liberation theology. It's now clearly apparent that Obama's mentors Rev. Wright, Saul Olinsky and other godless American haters have profoundly influenced Mr. Obama's opinion of this country.
"It's troubling that the President is uttering these lies about a nation he has sworn to lead and protect. Barack Obama's recent remarks coupled with his actions over the past two months leave no doubt that it is he who is arrogant and derisive, not the American people."
