I seem to have missed this a few days ago (2-11-15), but this is “so like them” (Conservatives) that I had to share it…

In today’s America, the GOP wants those who speak the truth to apologize because it doesn’t conform to their warped sense of reality.

When President Obama delivered his speech at the National Prayer Breakfast and made reference to the Crusades (in which Christians massacred hundreds of thousands of people in the name of religion), conservatives flipped. I guess the Republicans can condemn all Muslims when it comes to the actions of ISIS, but when it comes to Christians, the Crusades never happened.

Now Reince Priebus, chairman for the Republican National Committee, is demanding that President Obama apologize for reminding the country about a historical fact. Apparently, when faced with their own demons, Christian conservatives want to bury their heads in the sand and blame all the woes on the President (like they always do). Another example of how they cannot accept responsibility or accept reality.

On his Facebook page, Priebus posted a link to an online petition, saying, “Obama’s playbook—Ignore the threat of radical terrorism & insult Americans instead. Agree? Sign to demand an apology.”

He then linked on the post to this page, where over 7,300 signatures have been gathered. The caption of the petition really shows how sissy and spineless the GOP is when it comes to having their “strong faith” insulted:

At the National Prayer Breakfast, rather than condemning the terrorist attacks in the name of religion, President Obama lectured Christians on crusades from centuries ago.

He said, “And lest we get on our high horse and think this is unique to some other place, remember that during the Crusades and the Inquisition, people committed terrible deeds in the name of Christ.” 

It’s infuriating to hear the President make such out-of-touch remarks and unduly insult Christians. President Obama should apologize to those hurt and offended by his comments. He should stand strong against those who threaten our country, our families and our freedom.

Demand Obama apologize for his insulting remarks.

The part that really gets me is “President Obama should apologize to those hurt and offended by his comments.” If a person in good faith was truly hurt by these comments, their faith is pretty damn weak. Suck it up, know your history, and grow from it. You don’t like someone calling you out for the atrocities you didn’t commit? Welcome to the life of every Muslim American.
