A leading Democratic candidate for president attends an “Afrocentric” church that bestows awards on Louis Farrakhan and practically defines itself through race-baiting. Burt Prelutsky asks, why isn’t Barack Obama’s faith-based problem making national headlines and the nightly news?
One of the obvious differences between Democrats and Republicans is the role that religion plays in their presidential campaigns. For instance, every Democrat, while pretending to believe that “separation of church and state” actually appears somewhere in the Constitution, must also insist that religion plays an essential role in his or her life. But just about the only time you see them going to church is when they’re posing for the cameras while addressing a black Baptist congregation.
What’s more, when questioning these people, the liberal media kindly limits itself to a yes or no question regarding the existence of God.
Why is it, I wonder, that nobody is asking Barack Obama about his religious convictions?
For over 20 years, Sen, Obama has been a faithful member of Chicago’s Trinity United Church of Christ. The other day, I paid a visit to Trinity’s website.
Now, my own reasons for hoping that Sen. Obama is not elected president next November are pretty much the same reasons I object to Hillary Clinton and John Edwards. I consider all three of them to be anti-military, tax raising, left-wing flyweights who would bury this country in entitlements while essentially ignoring Islamic fascism.
That being said, I have no idea how a member of a black church that apparently feels it owes greater allegiance to Africa than to America and that pays homage to a bigot like Farrakhan, has the gall to present himself as the one candidate who can bring us all together.

If this Wright fellow dislikes America so much and calypso louie who really hates America, why don’t they go back to their “roots”? Why must they complain and denigrate the people of this nation? You know why??????? They are living a good life, riding around in the most expensive vehicles, travelling to “their roots” on the money provided by the collection pots in their churches. They wouldn’t give up one nano second living in this country, because they have it too good. They ain’t dumb.
"Native American" is what I am. So is EVERY American Citizen born in this country. "Native" is another perfectly good word, such as "gender" and "liberal" and so many others, co-opted by the Marxist Left a given an new meaning.
Why the SOBs even consider Mexican, Arab and Islam to be "races" since to have an issue with a member of one of these groups is considered "racist."
The proper term, if anyone is ever interested in using it, would be "aboriginal American." But, I too prefer Erie, Apache, Cree etc. since that's more accurate. These groups and nations are as distinct from each other as are the English, French and Germans.
“aboriginal American.”
Exactly, scientifically precise. And guaranteed to start a row in a discussion, as I discovered (not to my surprise) in a college classroom.
Ah yes, I knew that, but notice the spelling.
Don't let him weasel out either, make him produce the documents that recorded the event at a church or wherever he may purport to have been baptized.
THis sounds more like third reich indoctrination lessons than a christian catechism...
Also, there is a reason there is no fatwa on this muslim Trojan horse.
Muslims were friends with Hitler in the 1930’s...
Where’s that footage of algore morphing into a Black Southern Baptist preacher?
bkmk
He sore on a Bible at his Sinate inaugation. IMHO, that makes little difference if he says he will say he will swear on a Bible. This guy will say or do anything. I couldn’t care less if he says he will swear on a Bible because it is absolute meaningless anyway.
I believe that white leftists don’t care if nonwhites/america-haters/muslims/etc. destroy their ‘enemies’ (normal americans) because they think that they’ll always be in control & won’t have to suffer the consequences themselves.
The ascendancy of Obama is significant because it shows that eventually, these people plan to take power themselves & push white leftists to the bottom as well. The battle of Hillary vs. Obama seems to me to be the first battle between the old white leftists & their former proteges.
Don’t know if I’m explaining myself clearly. Do you understand what I mean?
Odinga says he is Obama’s cousin - http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/main.jhtml?xml=/news/2008/01/08/wkenya308.xml
I think this is very revealing about what this church and its pastor values.

I was changing channels a few weeks before the last Presidential election. I came across a “minister” who was really letting the Republicans have it and was endorsing Kerry. I thought he was so awful that I sent him an email. Never heard back from him and I can not imagine why. Poor sweet little me writing someone as important as he thought he was. I have kept up with the website ever since. He has beliefs that are contrary to the Bible and I can see why he only thinks Blacks should come to his church. He says they owe allegiance to Africa but says nothing about this country. Or that was on there at one time. It is as fake as any “church” I have come across. It is pure racist.
Minister as in the Nation of Islam ?
These Ministers are Trojan Horses for Islam.
The indians I know call themselves indians.” Native American” is the fabrication of those who exploit past justices for their own purposes, aided by white men who are ashamed of their country nation.
I think that I understand what you meant.
The democrats always have had multiple agendas. Look at them thru the eyes of FDR in the 1930’s.
That is why their banner is : We are for change.
Then every mini left wing group can assign a different value as to what they see as “ change. “
Second, many American liberals are very naive and very in-experienced. Many have no idea what communism means. They have not traveled much nor seen the world. They imagine free stuff like health care, but ignore the real costs of free healthcare, etc.
If the muslims win this global war, then these liberal women would lose their rights to vote, drive a car, hold a job, go to school...
They are so full of hate that they can not see beyond tomorrow.
Then...
