Well, regardless of what Obama thinks or wants, this is still a Christian nation. Some may be in the minority, but they just need to get over it. No one is making you go to the memorial and visit the "cross." No one is forcing you to bow down and pray to it. So, man up and move on with your life. Yet another example of a vocal minority trying to push its beliefs and values onto the majority by abusing the legal system. Personally, I don't even believe Jesus died on a cross, but I also don't give a shit what other people have come to believe. Wish more people could be like that instead of whining.

The US  isn't a Christian nation, and using tax money for this venture is abusing people's rights to freedom of religion.

Uh, yea it is.  The vast majority of its citizens are Christian, so therefore it is a Christian nation.  Of course, we allow any to come here and practice whatever faith they want without prejudice, as it should be.  And don't even bring up maybe using a few thousand to transport this structure that brought hope to many, when we have a govt that wastes billions every year.  And not having it there because a very small minority don't believe in it would be the true offense against freedom of religion.
