Presidential candidate Barack Obama preaches on the campaign trail that America needs a new consensus based on faith and bipartisanship, yet he continues to attend a controversial Chicago church whose pastor routinely refers to "white arrogance" and "the United States of White America."

In fact, Obama was in attendance at the church when these statements were made on July 22. .....

Hussein has basically done what Gary Hart had done,

with his denial,

Hart:

” Follow me around. I don’t care. If anybody wants to put a tail on me, go ahead. They’d be very bored. “

Thank you, your perspective on Obama’s “Church” is very interesting!

It is my opinion that Obama and his wife are closet racist’s. That said, I’m not sure I want Hillary to win the Dem. nomination.

It may be advantageous to the GOP to wait until he gets the nomination, then let the hammer come down.

I think he’s already got the nomination. Which is why the hammer is coming down.

Wow.

So is this story about to break all over?

Obama is the largest fool I've ever seen. Shouldn't the public be asking The Oprah to explain her racist church?

“I find it odd that this article was published on August 9, 2007. Why was this not a big issue then?”
We overlooked it and maybe Hillary’s team wants us to see it now.

See my post #95

I’m glad there’s finally some proof. Hopefully he won’t be able to hide behind any more of his rhetoric.

Here’s another photo taken the same day.

Now, it will be interesting to see if that sermon was recorded. ;-)

We overlooked it ...

I posted this article on Free Republic at the same time it was published by Newsmax back in August. There was some participation on the thread, but not like this. Already this thread is way over the total number of posts we had for that one.

I am the author of the article. I was there, after I got past the huge security guard who blocked the doorway, and I saw Senator Obama sitting in a pew for the entire sermon. He's difficult to miss. Not only is his appearance rather distinctive, he is surrounded by Secret Service agents these days.

Wow!!!

I was hoping that someone could verify that he actually WAS there.

The MSM has yet to try to find anyone who could corroborate:

(1) How often Senator B. (whose name must NEVER be spoken) Obama actually attended church,,,,AND

(2) How OFTEN those vile, hateful, RACIST comments were spewed in church by Wright.

See my post 109.

The sermons for that day are available from the church bookstore.

(1) I can personally confirm, having seen it myself during their broadcasts, that from 2004 to 2007 Obama attended the church about 80% of the time. Since he announced his candidacy for the presidency, he's only been there about 50% of the time -- but strangely, whenever he isn't there, Dr. Wright isn't there either. Their travel schedules, for some reason, are a perfect match. And Dr. Wright has been seen disembarking from Obama's private jet with him on at least three occasions. It's clear that he is now Obama's personal spiritual advisor.

(2) Dr. Wright always has something to say about race. Sometimes he's a lot more colorful than other times. But he always, always, always has something to say about race. And it is always divisive, resentful and contemptuous.

I think they’re letting everybody else play this one for them. They learned a hard lesson in SC and I’d bet my last dollar they don’t want a repeat.

Well, then let it all be heard by all so that all have a chance to agree or disagree with it.

It's not that BHO did or didn't know what the Dr. Reverend spoke of in this sermon or that sermon.

BHO knows what's in the reverend's heart: seething hatred. BHO willingly associate with a radical black separatist, with ties to other radical black separatists, who seriously hates this nation, its founders and the majority population dwelling within.

That alone speaks volumes about BHO’s own deceitful intentions.

Was that the “Audacity of Hope” sermon?

Wow! Earthquake level information.

Thanks for the ping.

Wright speaks of white Romans oppressing black Jews (like Jesus)

Does Wright realize that some Roman soldiers were Africans?

Study provides first genetic evidence of long-lived African presence within Britain

The University of Leicester study, funded by the Wellcome Trust and published today in 'European Journal of Human Genetics', found that one-third of men with a rare Yorkshire surname carry a rare Y-chromosome type previously found only among people of West African origin.[snip]

Africans were first recorded in the north 1800 years ago, as Roman soldiers defending Hadrian's Wall.

Does Wright realize that the Emperor Septimus Severus was from Libya? [see also, Septimus Severus: the African Emperor]
