"Rep. Jan Schakowsky (D-IL) -- said his speech was too political for a religious event like a prayer breakfast."

“Our politics have become so polarized and corrupted that a president of the United States cannot even attend an event devoted to drawing people closer to God and bridge partisan and cultural divides without being lectured about his policies,” wrote Cal Thomas

"We can have a meaningful debate over whether or not Carson’s policy ideas will work. The content of his proposals having nothing to do with why I was bothered by the speech. I was troubled by the speech for three main reasons:
1. As Stackhouse notes, Carson used his speech at the NATIONAL PRAYER BREAKFAST to talk about health-care and other controversial topics that tend to divide rather than unite. Such a speech was inappropriate on such an occasion. I might add that conservative columnist Cal Thomas is with us on this point.
2. Carson disrespected the office of the President of the United States with his speech. There is a time and a place to criticize the president’s policies and a prayer breakfast is not one of them. Again, I agree with Thomas: Carson owes Obama an apology.
3. At the end of his speech Carson told a patriotic story about the War of 1812 and the bombing of Fort McHenry. In the process he came very close to duplicating the historical error made a couple of years ago by evangelical pastor Dudley Rutherford.
Carson defends the speech here, claiming that “someone has to be courageous enough to actually stand up to, you know, the bullies.” I don’t disagree, but not at a prayer breakfast. He also claims that his position on health care “comes from the Bible.” I was unaware that the Bible offered a specific health care plan."
