Gov. Walker DESTROYS LIBERAL MEDIA After Latest Attempt at Gotcha Question
Posted by Jim Hoft on Sunday, February 22, 2015, 9:57 AM
On Saturday Governor Scott Walker was in Washington DC attending the National Governors Association winter meeting.

During an interview liberal reporters asked the Republican governor if he knows whether or not Barack Obama was a Christian. (Of course, this is the top issue facing the nation today.) Walker answered, “I don’t know. I’ve never asked him.”


Barack Obama’s older brother Abongo “Roy” Obama is a Luo activist and a militant Muslim who argues that the black man must “liberate himself from the poisoning influences of European culture.”

Walker then went on to lecture the reporters on bias in the media. “To me, this is a classic example of why people hate Washington and, increasingly, they dislike the press.”Walker nailed it.
And that’s why the liberals are terrified of this Republican leader.
The Washington Post reported:

Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, a prospective Republican presidential contender, said Saturday he does not know whether President Obama is a Christian.

“I don’t know,” Walker said in an interview at the JW Marriott hotel in Washington, where he was attending the winter meeting of the National Governors Association.

Told that Obama has frequently spoken publicly about his Christian faith, Walker maintained that he was not aware of the president’s religion.

“I’ve actually never talked about it or I haven’t read about that,” Walker said, his voice calm and firm. “I’ve never asked him that,” he added. “You’ve asked me to make statements about people that I haven’t had a conversation with about that. How [could] I say if I know either of you are a Christian?”

Walker said such questions from reporters are reflective of a broader problem in the nation’s political-media culture, which he described as fixated on issues that are not relevant to most Americans.

“To me, this is a classic example of why people hate Washington and, increasingly, they dislike the press,” he said. “The things they care about don’t even remotely come close to what you’re asking about.”

Walker said he does not believe that most Americans care about such matters.“People in the media will [judge], not everyday people,” he said. “I would defy you to come to Wisconsin. You could ask 100 people, and not one of them would say that this is a significant issue.”

After the interview was completed, Walker spokeswoman Jocelyn Webster telephoned The Washington Post to say the governor was trying to make a point of principle by not answering such kinds of questions, not trying to cast doubt on Obama’s faith.

Obama learned everything he knows about Christianity from this kook.
