Obama’s Feeble Attempt to Distance Himself From His Pastor’s Anti-American Screeds

Mr. Clean, the self-appointed New Messiah of Unity and Harmony, has been badly sullied by the controversy surrounding his long association with the pastor of his church, who on numerous occasions, has said some very disparaging things about white people— those same folks, who to a large extent, are responsible for many of his primary victories.

Watching the videos of Obama's lunatic pastor stirring up his congregation with racist rhetoric and then seeing them nod their heads in agreement to his inflammatory charges was downright

[nuconvert]

stealing the Clinton’s refrain, “Let’s move on”

[Eurale]

Tim Pussart just had Dems on camera who essentially said there was no more controversy because he’s denounced Rev. Wrong. Just move alone now...

[Blue Turtle]

oh no...i want this dragged out...this should exposed and the congregation should be exposed for what they are... a bunch of racist, ungrateful, anti-americans. Not to mention the good pastor held a position in the Obama camp. That would be like John McCain befriending David Duke....having David Duke in his campaign...disgraceful.

[Blue Turtle]

Of course the dems want to move on ....what about Senator LOTT!!!??? Remember what happened to him???

Hussein’s membership in this racist Anti-American group that calls itself a church, is more evidence that he cannot be trusted to be loyal to the United States.

That is about as good an analogy as I have seen....

Good article.

And I hope most voting people have access to youtube, cuz they sure won’t see the whole video on MSNBC.

I find it amazing as with many weird things in politics that this was never really noticed. Rush had to hammer on this one to show what a nut this preacher is. Now Obama is taking the “ What the definition of is, is.” defense. How much more of this BS can we take?

"Tim Pussart just had Dems on camera who essentially said there was no more controversy because he’s denounced Rev. Wrong. Just move alone now..."

But he DIDN'T denounce Wright, only the specific words that we have now all witnessed.

[Kakaze]

That's a great article, I hope everyone takes the time to read it.

I also noticed that today on the sunday shows, the real dems are absent.

There are no real movers and shakers out defending B. Hussein, I think they are home waiting to see the next shoe drop, their abscence says more than their defense of Obama, ever could.

[spanalot]

Husein knows he is a dead man walking.

Have you seen his latest appearances? He knows he has been caught in a lie.

WATCH THIS VIDEO

In June of 2007, Obama attended the 93rd annual Hampton University Ministers’ Conference and it was videotaped. In the first minutes of the video, Obama had this to say:

“I’ve got to give a special shout-out to my pastor, the guy who puts up with me, counsels me, listens to my wife complain about me. He’s a friend, and a great leader. Please everybody give an extraordinary welcome to my pastor, the Reverend Jeremiah Wright, Jr. ...Where he at? -There he is! That’s him right there!”

[SERKIT]

Rev. Wright's preaching certainly helps explain Michelle Obama's world-view. Their kids have been steeped in Rev Wright's excrement and will be affect, possibly for life.

If my pastor made comments about my mother's heritage like Rev Wright did about Barry's white mother, I would take offense and find a new church pretty quick. Maybe Barry hates his own white mother as much as Rev Wright hates whites.

[Galtoid]

Obama’s church is a front for the Nation of Islam. I’ll just bet we find a close connection between Calypso Louie and the Revrum Wright. That will be the other shoe to drop.

“I would not repudiate the man. It’s like a member of your family that says something that you really disagree with: You don’t stop being a member of the family but you have to speak out forcefully on the issue.”

[cake_crumb]

"Obama was pressed further in a subsequent Fox News interview. Obama admitted that he would have quit his church had he witnessed and heard Wright's statements firsthand.

'If I had heard them repeated, I would have quit,' he said. 'If I thought that was the repeated tenor of the church, then I wouldn’t feel comfortable there.'

But in a third interview with CNN, Obama said he will not quit the church now."

Listen to what I say, ignore what I do, right Barack Hussein??

From this story

[myrabach]

Yes I’ve noticed Obama lately and found it interesting. He is clearly lying and he knows it. I think he also knows that its over for him now. I just don’t see a way out of this one.

I said it before and now I say it loudly again... just picture him as Commander in Chief of our military???? It’s a sad day for America when this man is the hope.

BHObama is either an Idiot or a Racist.

Idiot.... if he knew the man for 20 years, and did not know his character.

Racist ...if he tolerated the radical comments.

Which would you rather have as a president

I may be more inclined to chose racist over idiot.
