I see a man who doesn’t have the integrity to stand up for what he’s been a part of for 20 years; and for no other reason than for personal gain.
I don’t believe for a minute he is tired. I do believe he sees no other way of putting this issue on the back burner; even though it opens him up for further criticism.

The petition is being sent to the Holy See and Fr. Jonathan Morris just commented from Rome on Ffleger saying he needs to get out. He also commented on Wright and Moss, saying that they do not represent Christianity.

That is the exact reason I retracted it. I will speak up for them when in the presence of PTB, but I will not take up arms, literally or rhetorically, for them. They should take care of themselves (If they will not work, let them not eat).

Thank you for the clarification and the urgency that the Holy See is focusing as well. I am going to sign the petition immediately and hoping other Freepers will as well.

You're hitting a sore spot. Obama has also said that he didn't think his church was all that controversial. Obama has sought out the fringe, the radical, the unconventional his entire life, he wrote about that when he went to Occidential College. He immediately sought out the Marxist professors, the Punks, the alienated. Obama is clueless as to what conventional America is like, (clinging to guns and religion). He's clueless as to traditional American beliefs, ie takes off the flag lapel pin to focus on "real" patriotism (of dissent). Obama gave up a job as a business consultant in New York City to take up a life as a "community organizer".
I've yet to read anything that he's done as a "community organizer". Let's see, we've had Presidents, who led armies, Washington, Jackson, Eisenhower. We've had Presidents, who've led States, Roosevelt, Carter, Reagan. But we've never had a President, who led "communities".
Obama is a huge opportunity for Republicans to define themselves as conservative reformers, but knowing the Stupid Party as I do, they'll drop the ball or spike it in the wrong endzone.
It doesn't matter, who wins this presidential election, there's going to be a voter revolt starting in two years, whether either party survives is up in the air.

Notice that he quit after a WHITE, CATHOLIC priest took to the pulpit. Very Clever!! And just in case no one has mentioned it as yet, both this White Catholic priest and Rev. Wright were serving as members of Obama's campaign staff.

Fr. Jonathan Morris told the Friends that he's not buying Barry's sudden resignation. Father said--Michelle and Senator Obama, you have a lot of explaining to do! Ellen RATner reported that it must have been so hard for Barry to leave his church but she went to an evangelical church recently where she heard the more horrifying things--so it's everywhere claims Ellen. From Rush this week:
RUSH: Go back to May 3rd, Meet the Press, Tim Russert's show, here is Senator Obama talking about Reverend Wright and Reverend Moss.
OBAMA: He was my pastor, and he built a terrific church. I'm proud of that church. We've got a wonderful young pastor who's there, who's doing, uh -- continuing the terrific work that the church does, and that's my commitment. My commitment are to the values of -- of that church.
RUSH: Thank you, Barack Obama. Democrats have gotta be quaking in their boots. They'll never admit it, but this is just too good.

How curious that CNN did NOT cover Barry’s live presser last night...they were doing a special report on gas prices.

Yesterday’s appearance would make for a great Body Language segment on The O’Reilly Factor. However, the resident expert’s “interpretation” would probably not even hint at the fact that Obama is just plain green up there. She’d probably tailor her explanation toward the compassionate and because it is a faith-based and family matter you might feel the same way...at first.

bcsco, he didn't throw Black separatist racism under the bus. He said that was the culture of the black church.
Unfortunately Royal Marshall, the black man that works with Neal Boortz said that the priest was right on the money.
So do all black people in America think that all white people in America are privileged? It seems so. He, Royal Marshall, admitted that black people talk and act different when there aren't whites around.
I'm wondering what happened to MLK Jr's I have a dream speech which was all about content of character and not color?
Honestly I don't have two personalities, I act them same around all people, dummy me assumed all adults did.

I heard that statement, and had a "gaugh" (1/2 gag; 1/2 laugh). That's one of the things about the left that has amazed me over the years: the convolutions they will go through in order to convince themselves (and others) that something is ok...

We dont want to have to answer for everything thats stated in that church, Obama told reporters in Aberdeen, South DakotaThis "we" includes "he" who wants to become a sitting President of the US. The glimpse we are getting of this church is not pretty, but that is not the point. He has to answer for what he believes and how he views the world, but that will reflect how he will act as President.
To: BabsC
Sorry, that should have been ‘the’ not ‘them’ same around all people.
