Yes, that’s right, America is becoming a godless nation under the leadership of Barack Obama and his supporting cast of liberal professors and their shills in the liberal media. According to the San Antonio News-Express, that’s what Newt Gingrich told the congregation in a 40 minute address at Cornerstone Church. That’s the church of right wing firebrand Pastor John Hagee. From the article:
“He warned that America is headed toward becoming a godless society unless voters take a stand against President Barack Obama and liberal-minded college professors and likeminded media pushing [Obama’s godless] agenda.”
Once Speaker, thrice married, now Catholic, presidential wannabe Newt Gingrich made clear that America’s problems are not related to poor governance, foreign adventurism, economic calamity or any other secular missteps. It is that we have lost touch with our “historic Christian roots.”
In the course of his address, Gingrich blasted American political, intellectual and press leadership for being soft on radical Islam. He recounted presidential prayers of the past and blamed America’s elites for trying to create a Godless society, unaware of its Christian past. He charged that,
“There’s a desperation with which our elites are trying to create amnesia so that we literally have generations who have no idea what it means to be an American.”
