Obama says, “I am my brother’s keeper.” His brother begs to differ. Literally. He begs.

Praise the Lord. The President slipped into his religious disguise yesterday and appealed to faith-based groups to save ObamaCare.

Twenty years in the front pew at Jeremiah Wright’s church paid off when Obama dredged up a vaguely appropriate biblical reference and said, “There are some folks out there who are, frankly, bearing false witness.”

But Land O’ Goshen, child, this was our favorite line:

“These are all fabrications that have been put out there in order to discourage people from meeting what I consider to be a core ethical and moral obligation: that is, that we look out for one another; that is, I am my brother’s keeper, I am my sister’s keeper. And in the wealthiest nation in the world right now we are neglecting to live up to that call.”

Please bear in mind, however, that the same man who wants you to be your brother’s keeper allows his brother to exist on $20 a year in a filthy little shack in Nairobi, Kenya’s worst slum.

Fact is, the only place the Hypocrite-In-Chief wants to keep his brother is out of sight.

The fact is, when you believe that people should rely on the government to meet their needs, you remove all personal responsibility and moral obligation.

Obama is his brother’s keeper…as long as someone else pays the tab.

Obama is his brother’s keeper — does that mean that half of Kenya will be moving into 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue?

Wellif we are all looking out for our own families and BHO has aunts, brothers and family suffering w/o help. My only suggestion is that has family with the political clout to benefit him and his agenda and are therefore an embarrassment to him

Well if we are all looking out for our own families and BHO has aunts, brothers and family are suffering w/o help. My only suggestion is that his family has no political clout to benefit him and his agenda and are therefore an embarrassment to him
