President Obama on living through our winter. . .

President Obama spoke last Sunday to the historic Vermont Avenue Baptist Church in Washington, DC. His sermon, like most all of his speeches, was very good. He pointed to the challenges of our day and looked back at a sermon that Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. presented to the congregation a generation ago.

While the entire message is worthy of your attention, the last two minutes of the sermon reveal a great deal about this president's personal faith. Very open. Very honest. Very inspiring.

Was he using the teleprompter for his "sermon"?

Thank you for posting this.

I would call it more of a campaign speech than a sermon. Open, honest and inspiring are hardly words I would use to describe Obama.

I just hope and pray that the country can be saved from this man. And please,Obama,leave the banks alone. We have lost $14,000 on paper in the last two days.

The speech in Ohio today was from a very angry man. I would go so far to say he has mental issues.

Personally I appreciate Obama's use of a teleprompter (and no he didn't use one here). After eight years of malaprops, ungrammatical, syntax indifferent, unclear thinking and uninspirational public speaking (with or without a teleprompter)its refreshing to know that there we have someone to use one.

and Anon 9:26, were you praying equally as hard for our former president to be stopped as he and his cronies ran this country's economy into a ditch so that they could share in no-bid contracts, tax cuts for the rich, increasing poverty for the middle class and stagnant wages for the working class?

We have such short memories...

You can't cut taxes for people who don't pay them in the first place.
