Breaking: Obama Resigns Church Membership In Chicago “With Sadness”
No! … Ya think?!?
Cripes! If this guy is this slooooow on the domestic and foreign issues as he has been on the political up-take with this church crap … and he becomes POTUS … we’re in some very deep shit, my friends.
FOX:
Barack Obama and his wife Michelle have resigned their membership at the Trinity United Church of Christ in Chicago, FOX News confirms, after controversies stemming from the church created a persistent distraction for Obama’s campaign.
Most recently, a Web video surfaced showing Chicago pastor Michael Pfleger giving a guest sermon at the church Sunday where he taunted Hillary Clinton and said she felt she was “entitled” to the presidency because she’s white.
Obama said he was deeply disappointed by the remarks and Pfleger apologized, but Clinton’s campaign still demanded Obama specifically reject the latest remarks.
By resigning his membership, Obama is taking the most definitive stand to date against the church.
He has already roundly condemned his former pastor Rev. Jeremiah Wright Jr.
Videos of Wright’s sermons, where he claimed the U.S. government created HIV to exterminate black people and said “God damn America,” threatened to derail Obama’s campaign when they first surfaced in March.
Be respectful of others and their opinions. Inflammatory remarks and inane leftist drivel will be deleted. It ain’t about free speech, remember you’re in a private domain. My website, my prerogative.

HUH????
He didn’t go *TALK* to Wright first???
Convince him, Pfleger and Moss to stop saying such inflammatory things about Amerikkka???
Guy can’t ‘control’ his own ministers… how the fuck is he going to do ANYTHING about Islam???!!!

May 31st, 2008 at 2:51 pmAll a dog and pony show. This guy would fold like a house of cards under pressure; Starting day one as the POTUS. Were screwed!!!
May 31st, 2008 at 2:54 pmFunny, just right around the time when the Democrats are talking about seating delegates. Nice, one there Berry, you are a typical politician. Ut oh, the Kool-Aid is running out! You better call up your boys Soros and Moore in order to find out how you can blame the president on this one.

May 31st, 2008 at 3:37 pmSharp as a tack, isn’t he? A little slow maybe but nothing gets past him.
May 31st, 2008 at 3:47 pmLeaves only after the “White Interloper” spoke at the pulpit, LOL! 20 years–2 months of real controversy, and now he leaves?!
May 31st, 2008 at 3:50 pmThis guy is just unreal. President of the United States? I dont think so. more like village idiot
May 31st, 2008 at 3:51 pmWhat was his quote in the Philly speech?
May 31st, 2008 at 3:52 pmSo B-HO can now embrace his Islamic upbringing without any stigma…
May 31st, 2008 at 4:18 pmHe just said that Michelle and him are going to wait until January to find a new church?
May 31st, 2008 at 4:24 pmThis changes nothing. He just wants to change the subject, but he spent 20 years in a Black Liberation Ideology based “church.” In other words, a black racist, Marxist church. He has not changed his beliefs; he has thrown his friends under the bus in order to placate the MSM.
May 31st, 2008 at 4:27 pmSadly, the motherfucker will get a pass in the media…guaranteed nobody remembers any of this shit by November.
May 31st, 2008 at 4:32 pmA day late and a dollar short. Why did this move take 20 years to happen? Pressure perhaps? This carnival-barker is “just words”. His character is about as deep as his shallow and limited understanding of Christianity.
His relationships with some of the most radical elements in this society do not lend him any credibility on any subject.
May 31st, 2008 at 4:45 pmAnd he didn’t know about these people’s words and actions? Just words eh? He’s got the tagiyya thing down pat.
I kinda like watching him keep squirming around in his own cesspool trying to look like a decent American!
It is all so absurd that it has become comical in and of itself. The sad and serious part is that there are actual Americans that think this chameleon has a handle on anything.
May 31st, 2008 at 6:00 pmI guess he now figures it is time for some change!
Like many others above so aptly stated - too f’n little too late Hussein!
Trying to clean out the outside of any vessel is futile if the inside remains polluted. After 20 years of listening to the “God damn Amerika!” crowd and it took this much pressure for him to f i n a l l y make this change speaks volumes to anyone with a pulse.
He is one arrogant a’hole.
May 31st, 2008 at 6:08 pmOut of all the things that bother me about him, I can’t forget the fact that when Don Imus uttered “nappie headed ho”, BO was one of the first out of the gates calling for NBC to fire him. And if the situation was reversed and it was a “white” preacher spewing shit about black people, would there be any doubt that BO would not be in this race at this time.
