Rush Limbaugh, Kathryn Jean Lopez, and others weigh in on Obama's newest issue. Let's hope he gets hammered for it, because this truly is crazy.
(Excerpt) Read more at primetimepolitics.com ...
Even if he fires his pastor, it's not like the pastor made a "gaffe", a mistake, a one-off slip of the tongue.
He's been preaching the same hatred for 20+ years, and O'bama's been lapping it up...
In the immortal words of that peace loving activist Rodney King: “Can’t we all just get along? ;O)
This story has made me go from just sitting back and enjoying the popcorn, to actually really hoping that Obama loses to Hillary. We can’t afford to take the chance that this guy could actually become President, even if it means getting stuck with Hillary.
Not only did he not fire the pastor...
it’s been going around that he WAS his pastor because the man doesn’t work at that church any more...
THAT’S BECAUSE HE WORKS FOR THE CAMPAIGN NOW
Yeah, the pastor went “into retirement” from his church and is now an Obama campaign staff member.
This guy makes Tony Campolo look like James Dobson in comparison.
McCain is a socialist too.
—”Obama’s Got a Pastor Problem”—
He sure does. I can’t imagine how he’s going to distance himself from it either.
About time something is being said about this. His minister, and I use the term loosely, is a hate monger.
Does anyone know how to find the daily Rush thread? I have put Rush or Limbaugh in the keyword and nothing comes up for his daily radio thread.
If Americans are now ethusiastic about electing a 'person of color' why not Walter Williams or the new governor of Louisiana?
And while we're at it, I don't see anyone remotely resembling Margaret Thatcher to run as president.
It is NOT as simple as a “pastor problem”
The PROBLEM is that Obama SHARES the ideology of this rabid racist pastor - and is a true wolf in sheep’s clothing pretending to me a man of peace, compromise and unity.
Nothing could be further from the truth..
I believe Obama is an America hating racist.
That said, Hillary is also very dangerous, plus she brings the additional problem of being extremely corrupt.
Yes, take notice people, this is what the Demo's are foisting upon us. Rush etal have been having fun with it, sorry, this is dead serious and these are very serious people. It is not good, not good at all.
schu
These are from his book.
Doesn’t look like he likes to say anything about his white side.
From ‘Dreams of my Father’, “In Indonesia, I had spent two years at a Muslim school”
“I studied the Koran..”
From ‘Audacity of Hope: “Lolo (Obama’s step father) followed a brand of Islam ....”I looked to Lolo for guidance”.
From ‘The Audacity Of Hope, “I will stand with the Muslims should the political winds shift in an ugly direction.”
From The Audacity Of Hope, “We are no longer just a Christian nation,” “We are also a Jewish nation, a Muslim nation, a Buddhist nation, a Hindu nation, and a nation of nonbelievers.”
From Dreams of My Father, “ I FOUND A SOLACE IN NURSING A PERVASIVE SENSE OF GRIEVANCE AND ANIMOSITY AGAINST MY MOTHER’S RACE”.
From ‘Dreams of my Father’, “The emotion between the races could never be pure..... the other race would always remain just that: menacing, alien, and apart.”
From ‘Dreams of My Father’,
“I ceased to advertise my mother’s race at the age of 12 or 13, when I began to suspect that by doing so I was ingratiating myself to whites”
From Dreams Of My Father, “never emulate white men and brown men whose fates didn’t speak to my own. It was into my father’s image, the black man, son of Africa, that I’d packed all the attributes I sought in myself..”.
From Dreams Of My Father:
“That hate hadn’t gone away,” he wrote, blaming “white people — some cruel, some ignorant, sometimes a single face, sometimes just a faceless image of a system claiming power over our lives.”
Would you sit and tolerate a “pastor” (priest, deacon, rabbi) who stood in front of your church and spouted virulently anti-Christian messages to the congregation?
Would you allow this to happen for years? From the pulpit?
No you wouldn’t because you would exercise your better judgement. And now we have a clear view of Obama - either he is in concordance with his pastor’s views, or he’s too damn stupid and lacks even the basic ability to determine right from wrong.
Yeah, he’s qualified to lead the nation.
Obama has just enough time before the Pennsylvania primary to become Amish and distance himself from this pastor.
