Last week I sent my friend in Norway the President’s remarks at the National Day of Prayer meeting.  His response below is an indication that not all is lost in Europe.  Kjell is an active member of the Progress Party in Norway that fights for free markets and less government.  See the party’s website in English here.

With the election of a conservative in France yesterday, maybe there is reason to believe that Europe is turning around.

Michael,

Thanks for sending these remarks. Where else in any Christian nation than USA can the president or prime minister talk about the power of praying publicly in this manner? Not in any state in Europe definitely. That is one of the reasons that your president has a moral authority that our leaders lack and also one of the reasons that I feel that he is not only your president, but also, in a way, mine.
