You Go, Girl: Kirsten Powers Excoriates Obama for Ignoring the Horrible Way Muslims are Treating Christians--and His Penchant for Lecturing Christians Instead of Muslims

Although she leans leftward, Ms. Powers, unlike most of her ilk, isn't afraid to speak truth to you-know-what:

Religious persecution of Christians is rampant worldwide, as Pew has noted, but nowhere is it more prevalent than in the Middle East and Northern Africa, where followers of Jesus are the targets of religious cleansing. Pope Francis has repeatedly decried the persecution and begged the world for help, but it has had little impact. Western leaders — including Obama — will be remembered for their near silence as this human rights tragedy unfolded. The president's mumblings about the atrocities visited upon Christians (usually extracted after public outcry over his silence) are few and far between. And it will be hard to forget his lecturing of Christians at the National Prayer Breakfast about the centuries-old Crusades while Middle Eastern Christians were at that moment being harassed, driven from their homes, tortured and murdered for their faith. 

And let's not forget that, more recently, Obama said "that sometimes when I listen to less than loving expressions by Christians, I get concerned." 

Odd he can never seem to muster at least as much "concern" over less than loving expressions--including beheadings and other feats of savagery--by Christian-hating Muslims.
