PLAINFIELD, IND -- Sen. Barack Obama on Saturday decried "the forces of division" over race that he said are intruding into the Democratic presidential nomination contest.

... The Illinois senator's comments came a day after he denounced statements appearing on television and on the internet by the Rev. Jeremiah Wright, pastor of the Chicago church Obama joined nearly 20 years ago.

Newsmax - which dug up the tapes of Rev. Jeremiah Wright's "inflammatory rhetoric" from the pulpit - will be breaking a story on Monday, 3/17/08, that Obama was in attendance during at least one of the sermons that he said he was not present at.

Saw this on Fox News - I believe it was Friday or Saturday - but decided to wait until now...

I've authored a couple of stories at Newsmax regarding barack Obama and his links to the Chicago Mafia Democratic political machine. One of my Newsmax stories from last summer, about Obama attending a Dr. Wright sermon at Trinity United, is being reviewed here:

He attended the ceremony before he didn't attend?

They are probably polling that statement as I post.

"It reminds me: We've got a tragic history when it comes to race in this country. A lot of pent-up anger and mistrust and bitterness. This country wants to move beyond these kinds of things."

So Obama you attended services by this man for 20 years and never heard this type of rhetoric?

I say BS!

Obama may go to a "hate Whitey" church, but it's going to be one big multi-cultural boot that comes down on him in the polls.

Why would they wait until tomorrow to post the story? What’s the purpose of leaking the story and then publishing it. Is it a publicity technique?

"Obama Decries Racial Rhetoric...."

Yep, and MOST of it was coming from HIS church's pastor!"

Now we must conclude - Obama is a racist, Marxist, America hater, anti-Semitic, pro-Islamist and a Liar... who smiles sweetly and reads his script well.

Now I'm waiting for someone to reveal that the fainting whores at his speeches were in fact "props" provided by the DNC casting couch.

I though we already knew this. Is this a different story than the one they published last August?

They should wait until the piece of dirt has the nomination to release this. If he loses the nomination, then we face the Arkansas mafia.

Thanks.
Obama has scared the living daylights out of my usually apolitical sisters.
They are big social butter flies and have spread the Obama/Wright story far and wide thru out the soccer Mom crowd.

Not sure...have to wait until tomorrow. I imagine that it isn’t the same story.

At least one of the authors on that Newsmax story will be Jim Davis. It was written at least a month ago, but there was insufficient confirmation of the facts at that time. Now the editors have all the proof they could ever hope for.

What will happen?
Not a damned thing!
The MSM will do the usual
“Nothing to see here.”
There will be screams of racism.

Obama will denounce the Rev. and create as much distance between them as possible with the intention of bringing him back into his fold as soon as he has won the Presidency. He has proven to be untruthful and his actions and words should not be trusted.
