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).

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.

NewsMax does need to specify if it was the 6:00 pm service where Davis places him there.

The Campaign Tracker has him flying back to Chicago after his speech in Florida to the National Council of La Raza.

One blogger is combing Obama's campaign website to try and get the info.

If he was there, it is going to come out.

Doesn't matter anymore WHAT the article says, Obama said last week that he never heard Wright make any such statements in private or in public and would have left the church HAD he heard such statements (because he SO strongly disagrees with them), and then TODAY he said he DID hear such statements, obviously DID NOT leave the church when he heard them, and blamed us stoopid white folks (which includes African American conservatives) of being too irrogant to understand the point of view of Da Black Man...thus confirming that he heard AND agrees with Wright's Wright's rabid racism and anti-Americanism.
