The President should just fess up. After a year in the White House he has become a bitter clinger. He went home on his birthday because it is now legal to own guns in Chicago. He was registered at a gun shop for his birthday gifts so one friend could get him the Glock, another the shotgun and another the Luger. After opening his presents and going to the firing range he attended a meeting of Pentecostals and got re-re-baptized (this time with a full dunking so no one would see his crossed fingers).

I thought the statement the White House Spokesman made on Obama’s Christianity went a little overboard. OK, he did not sound more Catholic than the Pope — only more born again than George W. Bush. Is this another case where his most avid admirers are going to assume he is lying (allowing me to agree with them for once)?

For the record, I think his religion is Calculating Politician.
