"Barack Obama is a committed Christian. He was sworn into the Senate on his family Bible. He has regularly attended church with his wife and daughters for years.

Mike CaneDuring a conference call in preparation for President Obama's trip to
Cairo, Egypt, where he will address the Muslim world, deputy National
Security Adviser for Strategic Communications Denis McDonough said
