Amidst all of the American flags and presidential seals, there was something missing when President Barack Obama gave an economic speech at Georgetown University this week -- Jesus. Obama and Jesus: The Story

is the prez supposed to mention Jesus in every speech?
The White House asked Georgetown to cover a monogram symbolizing Jesus' name in Gaston Hall, which Obama used for his speech, according to CNSNews.com. The gold "IHS" monogram inscribed on a pediment in the hall was covered over by a piece of black-painted plywood, and remained covered over the next day, CNSNews.com reported. -------------------------------------------------------------

I guess I should have provided a snip:
Kathy Griffin, the star of the Bravo show "My Life on the D-List," used her appearance on the Emmy awards program to tell Jesus to "suck it" and to claim full credit for the honor for herself.
Griffin, at the 59th annual Creative Arts Emmy Awards held recently, was honored for having the Outstanding Reality Program, overtaking ABC's "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition" after several attempts.
"I guess [censored] froze over," Griffin announced. "A lot of people come up here and thank Jesus for this. He had nothing to do with this. ... Suck it, Jesus! This award is my god now."

I think Ms. Griffin later remarked on King Live that the comment was directed at other celebrities, not "Him"....

I think every Catholic who plans to attend the Notre Dame commencement should attend as planned, and I think that when Obama gets up to speak, they should en masse kneel down and pray silently.

Why does the phrase, "Obama and Jesus" bring the phrase "Oil and Water" to mind...?

I still can't believe Notre Dame invited him.

"...they should en masse kneel down and pray silently...." recalls a cartoon in NYer or Atlantic: pastor at the pulpit stops his recitation to the congregation with, "Let us now have a moment of silently checking our Blackberries."
