. (AP) Senator Barack Obama has told members of his denomination that some conservative Christian leaders have exploited and politicized religion to sow division.

In a 30-minute speech before the national meeting of the United Church of Christ, which supports gay marriage, the Democratic presidential candidate said, "Faith got hijacked, partly because of the so-called leaders of the Christian Right, all too eager to exploit what divides us." Obama said, "They've told Evangelical Christians that Democrats disrespect their values and dislike their church, while suggesting to the rest of the country that religious Americans care only about issues like abortion and gay marriage, school prayer and intelligent design." Obama said a growing number of evangelicals are concerned about poverty and the environment.

Before this is over, Obama is going to PO a lot of people. Then when Hitlery takes the Super delegates—look out.

Senator Obama: We have documented proof that YOUR pastor and spiritual advisor hates whites, damns AmeriKKKa and spews lies about 911, AIDS, drugs and numerous other things! You are toast, Mister!

Right, Hussein.

I’m sure God has no opinion on abortion.

This is looking like an ideal scenario for the “Draft Gore” crowd.

obama’s theology is even more warped than his politics.

Finally, the real BHO is being revealed, day by day. This is what he really is and what he really thinks.

“Faith got hijacked, partly because of the so-called leaders of the Christian Right, all too eager to exploit what divides us.” Obama said

Hmm, this from a prevaricator who threw his white Granny under the bus and then backed over her again in the same week, all to defend his robed racist mentor who has spent 20 years using a pulpit to exploit division.

Now - out of curiousity - which “so-called leaders of the Christian right” is the RevRund Obama trying to drag under that bus?

Always listen to Liberals. You can tell what they are up to by what they accuse others of doing.

Pssst Obama: It’s called following the Bible. Not racism, not black-centric living, not anti-Semitism, not cult of personality.

But then again, you know that.
