Obama To Al Sharpton: 'My Religious Faith' Makes Me Believe Republicans Will Agree To Raise Taxes

(By Mark Finkelstein, NewsBusters) - On his MSNBC show [yesterday] evening, Al Sharpton played the audio of his radio-show interview of President Obama in which the president, commenting on the failure of the Super Committee, said "my religious faith" makes him believe at some point Republicans will agree to raise taxes.

Even the Reverend Al couldn't take PBO's reference to his religious faith seriously, as he can be heard chuckling in the background.
