A leading Democratic candidate for president attends an Afrocentric church that bestows awards on Louis Farrakhan and practically defines itself through race-baiting. Burt Prelutsky asks, why isnt Barack Obamas faith-based problem making national headlines and the nightly news?
One of the obvious differences between Democrats and Republicans is the role that religion plays in their presidential campaigns. For instance, every Democrat, while pretending to believe that separation of church and state actually appears somewhere in the Constitution, must also insist that religion plays an essential role in his or her life. But just about the only time you see them going to church is when theyre posing for the cameras while addressing a black Baptist congregation.
Whats more, when questioning these people, the liberal media kindly limits itself to a yes or no question regarding the existence of God.
Why is it, I wonder, that nobody is asking Barack Obama about his religious convictions?
For over 20 years, Sen, Obama has been a faithful member of Chicagos Trinity United Church of Christ. The other day, I paid a visit to Trinitys website.
Now, my own reasons for hoping that Sen. Obama is not elected president next November are pretty much the same reasons I object to Hillary Clinton and John Edwards. I consider all three of them to be anti-military, tax raising, left-wing flyweights who would bury this country in entitlements while essentially ignoring Islamic fascism.
That being said, I have no idea how a member of a black church that apparently feels it owes greater allegiance to Africa than to America and that pays homage to a bigot like Farrakhan, has the gall to present himself as the one candidate who can bring us all together.

I wonder how he gets a pass too, but I shouldn’t, he’s a ‘rat and he’s black-ergo, he gets a pass.
To which there is but only ine reply:
"A hyphenated American is not an American at all.
This is just as true of the man who puts 'Native' before the hyphen as of the man who puts German or Irish or French before the hyphen.
Americanism is a matter of the spirit and of the soul.
Our allegiance must be purely to the United States. We must unsparingly condemn any man who holds any other allegiance."
Theodore Roosevelt... 1915
I don’t have a problem with Native Americans describing themselves as such. They are natives, not “Indians”, and they are not giving allegiance to any other country.
Why is this story being covered up by the MSM?

Here is hoping the Dem race lasts long enough for the Clinton’s to dump this out there, one way or another.
Far better for the Clinton’s to push it than the GOP nominee in the summer.
Was Obama ever baptized ?
I want to know if he wins the presidency if he will do as all the previous Presidents and swear on a BIBLE to uphold the Constitution of the US of America. SOMEONE needs to ask him this soon. If he says no, he is not fit for the office.

This is just not right. We are not supposed to discuss a candidate’s religion. Unless, of course, it is Romney’s Mormonism. Or Hukabee’s evangelicism. But the latter two cases are, as everyone knows, different than Obama’s because...because...well, they just are, that’s why.
I have a $10 bet riding on the fact that Barama will NEVER be asked about his religious beliefs. Easiest money I will ever make.
It’s becoming clear that Ophama has some divided allegiances. To associate with a church that recognizes Farrakhan as someone who has advanced social justice causes one to question just what type of America Ophama desires. Farrakhan by all appearances is a black supremacist and the NOI is so far out on the fringe that no decent, thinking American would want to get within mile of those positions.
Along with his declining to wear a lapel pin of the US flag and the difficulty he has acknowledging the flag during the anthem paints a radical picture. No doubt Ophama believes America is to blame for many of the world’s injustices and has to be totally remade to conform to an image more closely aligned with Calypso Louie.
It appears he’s a wolf in sheep’s clothing.
They (Indians) emigrated here, displacing those before them, just as my forefathers did. Does that make me a native-American?
I know whites who were born and raised in Africa and then became American citizens. Does that make these folks African-Americans?
I got one stating his middle name was Mommand.
Raila Odinga has, in his own words, a “close personal friendship” with Barrack Hussein Obama Junior.
Interesting that Obama should sidle up to the agitator aligned with Islam.

“Why is this story being covered up by the MSM?”
Good question.
OBAMA CROTCH SALUTE?
.
“Why is this story being covered up by the MSM?”
Simply because the MSM hates America, too.
