Obama's Pilfered Prayer Note

Submitted by John Rich, Jul 30, 2008 14:31

Obama reminds me of those who wear their piety on their sleeves, for all the world to see and admire. The holiest men I ever knew never, ever, talked about their prayers to God. They had no need -- their actions showed. Perhaps we should all heed the wisdom of the prophet Micah 6:8: what doth the Lord require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God? Yes Mr. Obama; that includes you.
