Obama Resigns From His Church


Obama's NEXT Church maybe????


Fox News


Barack Obama and his wife Michelle have resigned their membership at the Trinity United Church of Christ in Chicago, FOX News has confirmed, after controversies stemming from the congregation created a persistent distraction for Obama’s campaign.

The criticism started with the sermons of his former pastor, Rev. Jeremiah Wright Jr., but Obama’s pastor problems were compounded this week by the Rev. Michael Pfleger, whose videotaped guest sermon at the church Sunday showed him taunting Hillary Clinton and saying 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 already has roundly condemned Wright.

Videos of Wright’s sermons, in which 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.



Wild Thing's comment.......

Watching him explain on the news right now Obama says his reasons for leaving are that every time someone from there speaks, the comments are connected to him AND the church itself is getting unfair and unfavorable coverage. He is doing this for the church ... not because he disagrees.

He did say the comments of Flegher were inappropriate, but he wishes all his friends at the church good will and praises the work done by both Wright and Flegher.

But he is not saying what has been screamed from the pulpit there has been wrong and he wants nothing to do with that anymore.

Comments

Hillary felt she was entitled because she stuck with Bill during his presidency and allowed the world to watch him humiliate her.

OK, a couple of moonbat, hypocrite, so-called preachers spoke out from the pulpit and it might hurt Obama’s chances at the Oval Office, so, the SOB throws em BOTH under the bus for the sake of the campaign…

God forbid he gets elected, but suppose he does, and suppose some asshat like Hugo Chavez criticizes the USA from the podium of the U.N.

Is Obama going to throw the USA under the bus??

I think that’s a fair question myself…

Indeed the 'Chickens are coming home to roost'. So far, obama's white grandmother, thrown under the bus, then Reverand Wright, So much for the crazy uncle in the basement, then came Pfleger the wannabee black/white enabling preacher, and now it appears the congregation has just been thrown under the bus. gotta be gettin' a little crowded under there.

For someone who is a Christian and has developed a faith of over 20 years in this church he has given them all up in one big hurry. Wright was right about Obama, he is a politician nothing less and nothing more he says what he has to say, and now to pander to the 'white folk'.

I read somewhere that Obama is really agnostic and a Moslem at heart. He is also a Flim-Flam man too. The old snake-oil salesman or Uncle Jamima selling his Malt Liquour.

This whole democrat campaign reeks of throat cutting and racial innuendo's one right after another. The talk and that is all it is about uniting the country turns out they are driving a wedge between the races wider than in the 1960's and we have the democrats to thank for this mess.
There is talk of a campaign in Denver, 'to recreate '68', this can only add fuel to an already burning fire.

Gee this could be the ultimate demise of the democrat party as we know it... Now that's not a bad thing.

BobF, yes I think that is part of it too.

The DNC has really shown their contempt for the Clinton's. Too bad they did not do it when we were all telling them how bad the Clinton's were years ago.

Texas Fred, yes that is a very fair question for sure. He would throw the USA under the bus without blinking his eyes.

Mark thanks for mentioning that about what Wright had said. Your right he called it about Obama. Watching Obama do his stupid speech about leaving the church he might as well have said I am doing this just to get elected and for no other reason. He sounded more like he was trying hard to be a victim, it was sickening.

Floating around the Internet right now is something called "Michelle's Whitey problem", and it's supposed to hit the air Monday. Rumor: Michelle Obama in the pulpit at Trinity using the epithet "Whitey". Anyone heard anything?

So now Obama throws his Church under bus and quits his Church. Big deal, what the hell took him so long? Did he have to wait until the whole world was talking and writing about it? It's just a bit to late Bambi, in fact it's twenty years too late, you're already indoctrinated into the fueling, inflammatory, hatred that you've listened to for that many years, and obviously supported, as you've mention; "Like I can't disown my white grandmother. You already told us that you can't disown your minister, Rev. Wright." But, you leave this very church due to a visiting pastor's derogatory remarks, does this truly hold water or make sense to anyone? It's like his wife Michelle stating; "I am now proud to be an American." What were you before this time? You were never proud of America before? Only now that your Husband has become the FIRST Black person to be the front runner to become the leader of the FREE world? Your weren’t proud of America when Pres. Reagan made that speech "Mr. Gorbachev Tear down that wall"?

Or when our troops invaded the Nazis concentration camps and freed ten’s of 1,000's of Jewish prisoners?

Didn't anything we ever do make you proud, you selfish little bitch!
Obama tells Oprah, I want to bring the troops into Africa, she endorses him, as her school in Africa will ultimately get military protection. This is where Obama's father lives.
I don't want to live in a militant state, I enjoy my liberties and freedom and don't wish to be dictated to, or subservient to anyone, nor to be discriminated against, or see my children or grandchildren or their children tortured, hated, or horrifically punished due to ignorant followers of hatred.
Who else do you have to push under the bus to get yourself in the limelight? And how long will it be until you throw America under the bus, and step on the gas?
Sorry folks but this guy scares me. his self-centered wife scares me.
Our Nation and the PC Liberals in it must be getting pretty damn desperate when someone like Obama can weasel his way into the Presidential race with no real agenda except his so called CHANGE bull shit. Change to what? Anyone cane say they want Change, sure who don’t. There is always room for change. It’s the radical change that I’m afraid of. The Change to bring out people like we’ve seen in his Rat’s nest of a Church into the daylight of US policies that I’m afraid of.
I don’t trust him and encourage everybody not to Would I rather see the lying Clinton’s back in power? Wow, that’s a really tough choice for an American to have to make.
I hate Hillary Clinton and I could never, ever tolerate her or her Husband and her little bitch of a Daughter either.
So even though I hate to repeat myself so much I’ll take John McCain, with or without his faults, I can tell you one thing. No country on this earth will mess with us as long as John McCain is in office. And that’s pretty much it

drstrangeloveb52isok, your on a roll. haha

Maybe if the heat in the kitchen gets hot enough, Obama will throw Michelle under the bus. I have also heard rumors of a Michelle racist tirade from the pulpit of Obama's now former church. I do have a picture of her giving a Black power salute. She will fuel the fire of controversy before this election is over.

Rhod, your right and this is weird.

I started to hear about it a couple of weeks ago. It was said it would come out last week then another day was given and the last I heard about it was last night. Now just like you said it is supposed to come on tomorrow morning sometime.

Thank you Rhod I am so glad you mentioned it because if it is out there I sure hope Obama's people do not find out whoever has it and stop them. There is enough holding back the truth from the left.

Posted by: Wild Thing at June 1, 2008 11:44 AM


DD2, great comment and you called it right. The Obama's will destroy every part of our country and they can't wait to do it. No one can convince me they even like our country, they hate it. They are both racists and that is why they went to that church because it was who they are.

I agree about the Clinton's too including their daughter. Our country is still not back from the horrible things Bill Clinton did.

McCain has a ton of things I can't stand about him and have zero respect for. It will be one of the hardest things I have done in my life to vote for him in Nov. But one thing for sure he will not do to our Nation the extreme communist things Hillary and Obama would do. Close to it like the stupid global warming and none drilling for oil stuff etc. but not some of the other things that the left would for sure make law in this land and there in lies a big difference, between the three dems ( obama, hillary and almost a full dem mcCain)

Tom, your right, I don't thing Michelle can keep inside the amount of resentment and hate she has, it will keep coming out more and more.

Posted by: Wild Thing at June 1, 2008 12:00 PM


Wild Thing, Theres one thing we can be sure of
McCain would be more dangerous to our enemies than to us.

Posted by: DD2 at June 1, 2008 03:45 PM


I did do a post about Osama Obama and his temple of doom. This man is dangerous. He finally disassociated himself with the Trinity hate cult, but only after much publicity. This "thing" does nothing without political motivation to further his and Mikita "khrushchev" Obama's agenda. Has she banged her shoe on any rostrum yet?

As a conservative Republican evangelical supporting Obama, I think you guys are being unfair, that's all I got to say.

"To this SUPPOSED 'REPUBLICAN EVANGELICAL' that is SUPPOSEDLY voting for Obamessiah.... bull sh*t!
My Death Star anal retentive Detecto Beam has a fix on this phony liberal ASSteroid mosh pit mutant.... It's JOHN RYAN again Wild Thing... As for 'ER'...it means ERectile dysfunction, eh?"

Posted by: darthcrUSAderworldtour07 at June 2, 2008 12:34 AM


Bob I could see Michelle doing something like that.

Darth, thank you so much for letting me know!!!!
