Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, a prospective Republican presidential contender, said Saturday he does not know whether President Obama is a Christian.
“I don’t know,” Walker said in an interview at the JW Marriott hotel in Washington, where he was attending the winter meeting of the National Governors Association.
“I’ve actually never talked about it or I haven’t read about that,” Walker said, his voice calm and firm. “I’ve never asked him that,” he added. “You’ve asked me to make statements about people that I haven’t had a conversation with about that. How [could] I say if I know either of you are a Christian?”
Walker said such questions from reporters are reflective of a broader problem in the nation’s political-media culture, which he described as fixated on issues that are not relevant to most Americans.
“To me, this is a classic example of why people hate Washington and, increasingly, they dislike the press,” he said. “The things they care about don’t even remotely come close to what you’re asking about.”

Really, really stupid statement. It might play well to the ultra conservative loyalist but it will surely bite him in the ass in a general election. Dumb
Why even ask him. He is a proven liar and fraud.
WHo cares what religion he is? FFS, he is a horrible President, that should be all that matters.

Why is it a stupid statement?
B.T.W. it was taken out of context, but it doesn't matter, Obama certainly isn't a Christian and most of the world knows it.
3:02 it was a stupid statement everybody knows Obozo is a Muslim and so does Scott Walker
You can't be a Christian and a Muslim. Also Walker should have said (if he really didn't say this already) "I don't know, why don't YOU ask HIM"?
Maybe the media should've asked questions about Obama before now?
He is correct about the media focusing on things most of us don't care about. It's to keep us all busy with trivial celebrity BS drama, etc. instead of seeing what's really going in the world, more specifically this country & government!
The Media is a idiot as usual. They must have forgotten he had to be sworn in on a Koran, no Christian Bible present, per Obama.
Koran is a "Holy Book " of Islam /Muslim faith
"Really, really stupid statement. It might play well to the ultra conservative loyalist but it will surely bite him in the ass in a general election. Dumb"
You miss the point entirely, moron. His "I don't know." response is a blatant effort to belittle the press and their stupid questions. And it probably will play well with conservatives, because most have a clue - unlike Obama suckers like you.

Huh? Another Obama lie?
B Hussein Obama didn't stay at a Holiday Inn Express, and he plays a Christian (when convenient) when TV cameras are rolling.
He's more scripted than a play.
The anti-chirst is he! Obama
Christian man doesn't start conversation with sayinn:" Qu'ran tells us uhm, blah blah blah crap blah biah". Those are Barry Obama's words and he is a Muslim. Read his book Dreams of my Father. By his own admission he says" .... when things get rough, I will pledge my allegiance to Allah....." HIS OWN ADMISSION!!! Hey Sheeple, Wake the Hell Up!
