Obama Attended Hate America Sermon

NewsMax ^ | March 16, 2008 | Ronald Kessler

NewsMax is saying he was there on 22 July 07.

Contrary to Senator Barack Obama’s claim that he never heard his pastor Jeremiah A. Wright, Jr. preach hatred of America, Obama was in the pews last July 22 when the minister blamed the “white arrogance” of America’s Caucasian majority for the world’s suffering, especially the oppression of blacks.

Even if Obamie didn’t attend one particular sermon, it’s not like this so called minister wasn’t in this frame of mind every day of his life. Obamie knows all about him and still considers him a spiritual mentor. And Obamie agrees with every venomous word this ‘minister’ said.

What exactly does this clarification clarify? All it says is that Jim Davis attended the church during July, including the 22nd and during one of those services in July Obama was present. They don't say it was the 22nd, they only say that because of the early and late service Obama could have been there.

Seems pretty flimsy.

In fact, Obama was present in the South Side Chicago church on July 22 last year when Jim Davis, a freelance correspondent for Newsmax, attended services along with Obama. In his sermon that day, Wright tore into America, referring to the “United States of White America” and lacing his sermon with expletives as Obama listened. Hearing Wright’s attacks on his own country, Obama had the opportunity to walk out, but Davis said the senator sat in his pew and nodded in agreement.

Davis better get a bodyguard.

If he can prove this, the Obama campaign will be severely damaged. The Superdelegates will be forced to side with Hillary.

This could be over.

No it doesn't. Did you read the NewsMax article?

I think he got caught in his lies so in todays speech he admits to being in attendance when some of these controversial speeches took place. .

[tobyhill]

Obama today admitted he was at some of the hate filled sermons contrary to his previous claim.

[paddles]

If he was there it trashes any gains his speech made for him today.

But it's not up to the USSS to "pony up" records: HRC has to do it to save her candidacy. Let her and her henchmen do it.

No it doesn't. Did you read the NewsMax article?

The article says one thing (that Obama was at that service) and the later "clarification" doesn't back it up (he could have been at that service).

OLBERMANN: There's an awful lot of strong material that is now on videotape. We have played it. I see no reason to play it again, but a phrase that suggests that "God damn America" is a better phrase to use than "God bless America." Can you characterize your own reactions to this? Did you know that he made these statements before the videotape appeared?

OBAMA: You know, frankly, I didn't. I wasn't in church during the time when the statements were made.

He was caught in a massive lie.

This is a disaster for him.

Wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a damn minute!!!!!

The Honorable ObamaX gave a speech today, everything is fixed now. It’s ok to love him again...it’s all over the news!!!

If you don’t vote for the Honorable ObamaX, you’re a racist.

Perhaps, but not yet, this will simmer down, but those attendance records coupled to a Video of what J. Wright was delivering with vitriol, will make an awesome campaign advertisement in say October....

The guy is unmasked, he is a Hate America First type whether he wishes to own that or not, his actions speak louder then flowery speeches.

[tobyhill]

He even lied to his MSM allies. How can the MSM even take anything he says serious anymore?

“I wasn’t in church during the time when the statements were made.”

“I did not have sexual relations with that woman, Ms Lewinsky.”

[Robert DeLong]

Well vote for Obama then.

[rolling_stone]

Obama needs to be asked
1. did he register for the draft
2. does he believe in reparations for descendants of slavery.

[Red in Blue PA]

And amazingly, he doesn’t have a clue of how bad this is for him. I honestly liked the guy until this surfaced.
