Acts of preferentialism for Islam by Obama: May 2009 – While Obama does not host any National Day of Prayer event at the White House, he does host White House Iftar dinners in honor of Ramadan. 44 April 2010 – Christian leader Franklin Graham is disinvited from the Pentagon’s National Day of Prayer Event because of complaints from the Muslim community. 45 April 2010 – The Obama administration requires rewriting of government documents and a change in administration vocabulary to remove terms that are deemed offensive to Muslims, including jihad, jihadists, terrorists, radical Islamic, etc. 46 August 2010 – Obama speaks with great praise of Islam and condescendingly of Christianity. 47 August 2010 – Obama went to great lengths to speak out on multiple occasions on behalf of building an Islamic mosque at Ground Zero, while at the same time he was silent about a Christian church being denied permission to rebuild at that location. 48 2010 – While every White House traditionally issues hundreds of official proclamations and statements on numerous occasions, this White House avoids traditional Biblical holidays and events but regularly recognizes major Muslim holidays, as evidenced by its 2010 statements on Ramadan, Eid-ul-Fitr, Hajj, and Eid-ul-Adha. 49 October 2011 – Obama’s Muslim advisers block Middle Eastern Christians’ access to the White House. 50 February 2012 – The Obama administration makes effulgent apologies for Korans being burned by the U. S. military, 51 but when Bibles were burned by the military, numerous reasons were offered why it was the right thing to do. 52 Many of these actions are literally unprecedented – this is the first time they have happened in four centuries of American history. The hostility of President Obama toward Biblical faith and values is without equal from any previous American president.

Liberals were enraged and outraged (aren’t they always) when Lowe’s pulled out of advertising on All-American Muslim. How dare Lowe’s do that, screamed the liberals. It is racist,bigoted, etc. for a sponsor to decide to pull ads from programming based on concerns about content of a show. But, in the case of Rush Limbaugh, the liberals are delighted that sponsors have pulled advertising from Limbaugh, over concerns about the content of his show. So, what is the true liberal view of sponsor boycotts? Are sponsor boycotts good when sponsors object to programming? Or are they only okay when sponsors object to conservatism?
