Report: Reverend Who Said All Whites Are Going to Hell Will Be at Obama's Election-Night Party
Twitchy ^ | 11/6/12 | Billy Hallowell

The Rev. Joseph Lowery’s proclamation — that all white people are hell-bound — apparently isn’t controversial enough for President Barack Obama to distance himself from the faith leader. Just days after the Monroe County Reporter highlighted the 91-year-old preacher’s alleged race-based proclamation (one that the preacher has since dismissed as a mere joke), Lowery will reportedly spend time with the Obama family on election night.

The Georgia Tipsheet has more the civil rights leader’s election-night plans:

…the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported Tuesday morning that Lowery, who was among the president’s earliest supporters in the state and delivered the benediction at his 2009 inauguration, would be at the Obama campaign’s election night party in Chicago. A campaign spokeswoman did not respond to a request for confirmation by Tipsheet, however.

Lowery has since clarified that his remarks were intended as a joke–one, he said, he’s told a “million” times previously–even as the small-town journalist who first reported them denies that characterization.

That the Obamas sat for years in Wright’s Wracist “church” should have been proof enough four years ago.

That another Wracist like Lowery will be there is only further proof of double standards and bigotry in the Obama family and Administration

Along with a pandering, cowardly media

Considering 0bama's utter failure to help the victims of SuperStorm Sandy, I feel safe in paraphrasing Kayne West -

"0bama hates white people!"

I wouldn’t let this worry me.

Anyone who doesn’t know Obama is a racist bigot by now hasn’t been paying attention.

He will need someone around when he loses, someone who can tell him the only reason he lost is because white people are racist.

I’d like to see a white man make a “joke” like that and then get invited to a party with the President. But Hussein says we have to “respect” the “prophet”. The left is evil, pure evil.

It’s one thing to make a claim about who goes to hell and who doesn’t based on scripture. It’s another thing entirely to appoint yourself the arbeiter of who goes and who doesn’t in a way that is not in accordance with scripture.

The latter, implies that you don’t fear the real Judge (God) of the matter. And that lack of fear implies a complete lack of belief in God.

Jesus said, “No man goes to the father except through me.” So it’s appropriate to say non-Christians are going to Hell.

It would be even worse that the people he chooses to hang out with, think it's funny enough that he keeps telling it.

Average Joe Voter ignored this in 2008. If he ignores it again this year it will mean disastrous results for the country.
