Obama’s Religious Freedom Ad Points to Issue’s Significance
At EWTN News, Michelle Bauman reports on President Obama’s new advertisement in which he stresses the importance of religious freedom. In the new ad, Obama claims that his “commitment to protecting religious liberty is and always will be unwavering.” Eric Scheidler, executive director of the Pro-Life Action League and co-director of the nationwide Stand Up for Religious Freedom rallies, remains skeptical. “[The ad is] nothing but empty words,” Scheidler said. “I don’t think anyone’s going to buy it.”
