ZOTcraft in the Troll House

The Obama White House is abuzz with talk of witchcraft by first grandmother, 72-year-old Marian Robinson, who lives in the White House residence. A close friend of Michelle Obama says the president is furious at his mother-in-law after learning that she was practicing Santeria, an African spirit cult, in the White House.

"The president is quite upset about this on two different levels. First, he is a committed Christian, no matter what his critics say about Reverend Wright. He is adamant that Sasha and Malia be raised with Christian influences. He does not want them to be involved with African voodoo. And secondly, he is worried about the political fallout if his enemies get wind of this. Rev. Wright was bad enough, but this would be political suicide," a close friend of Michelle’s confided.

Religion took center stage during the campaign last year when videos showed the Rev. Jeremiah Wright shouting "God damn America." Obama was forced to distance himself from the since-retired pastor at Trinity United Church of Christ in Chicago, where he worshiped for 20 years. Many people were shocked by the videos and questioned Obama’s fitness to be president. Since taking office, Obama has avoided worshiping in public and now prefers the chapel at the presidential retreat at Camp David.

This is how it happened. Marian Robinson became increasingly frustrated as her husband, Fraser Robinson, was hobbled by multiple sclerosis in the late 1980s. The family pastor prayed with her and counseled her, but "she turned to Santeria in a desperate hope," Michelle’s friend said. "Michelle put her foot down when she heard that her mother took her dad to ceremonies where they did spells and trances, and sacrificed animals, chickens and goats I think. But Marian was desperate and kept going anyway, even when her husband was to sick to go with her. I don’t think the president knew anything about this earlier because it was before they met. Michelle and Craig (her brother) wanted to close the book on this and never talked about it again after their father died in 1991."

The first grandma appears to be worried about her health now, even though doctors pronounce her in good shape. "Marian invited an old friend from Chicago to visit her at the White House, and she performed a Santeria ceremony in the residence. When Michelle saw this woman, a voodoo priestess she recognized her from when her father was sick, she had a fit. When she told the president about it, he blew up and said, ‘No voodoo in the White House. Absolutely. I don’t care what you call it.’ As far as I know, it only happened once," the friend said.

The president was "totally in favor" when his mother-in-law moved into the White House as a live-in babysitter for 11-year-old Malia and 8-year-old Sasha. Obama reportedly told Michelle that her mother will have to go back to Chicago if she does not "stop this witchcraft mumbo-jumbo immediately" and ordered the Secret Service to not allow Marian’s friend to return to the White House.

I remember reading a book years ago that told of the use of a drug by voodoo practitioners that can paralyze the body. The person knows what is happening around them, but they can’t respond in any way. They appear to be dead. Can’t recall the name of the book,or the drug.

The video you posted reminded me of it, when I saw what happened to the girl.

He dragged his kids to a hate-whitey church for years. What the heck difference would a little witchcraft be in his life?

I don't know if this is part of the voodooing of the Luo tribe...but I have to say that riding around in a truck with a burning tire on top is not exactly a smart thing to do for this Luo member

Those pins were a fad several years ago. Republicans, Democrats and everyone in between was wearing them.

>>”Kari Byron in a dress firing a mini-gun “

I think that this was faked.

1. NO tracers,

2, Close-up of tree showed little bitty explosions, just like “squibs” used in movies to show bullets striking.

3. The stump was “set afire.” Absent tracer/incindiary rounds, there is no cause for a stump fire.

Well, maybe they have stopped since I quit watching a couple of years ago. Have you ever seen/heard a mini-gun being live fired?

I started laughing out loud when I read this article. Santeria, Zero? Ha! Can’t deny your trashy roots, guy. My word, the libs have the nerve to call the Palin family the “Wasillbillies?” Pot meet kettle.

I've worked with blacks in the fed and state agencies for decades. I know it sounds silly, and call it racism all you want, but I have never run across such a cross-section of them that are really afraid of ghost, believe in some sort of voodoo, will run all the way back to 71st & Stoney Island from State & Madison in Chicago if you jump out of a gangway with a skeleton mask on, or believe the silliest things about witchcraft.

The old-timers are the worst so I believe this report. When I sat they “spook” easy, it's the truth.
