During the recent media super storm: Obama's Pastor Disaster, CBS 2 Chicago has strangely not released video they have of Obama at Trinity United Church of Christ for a Book Signing / Church Service with Pastor Wright. According to a Chicago Tribune article, at the Service Obama spoke to the cheering congregation and the choir sang, "Hallelujah Barack". After the service Wright and Obama sat together, laughing , talking and signing books. Leaving one to wonder, if a republican candidate had this sort of controversy swirling around would the footage have found it's way to the national and cable news networks by now?

(Watch the whole thing to hear the reporter refer to Obama as a “Spiritual Father”)

No, the reporter applies the phrase “spiritual father” to Wright (describing his relationship to Obama).
I don’t find this video exactly explosive, but it does show the absurdity of Obama trying to now distance himself from Wright, so when tied to all the vids of “Reverend” Wright ranting, it should pose a big issue for Obama.
What is the “article” text, here? Your comments?
How is it known that WBBM TV has this video?
That report mentioned how Obama looks upon Rev. Jeremiah Wright “as a sort of intellectual father figure.”
It also mentioned that Obama came to him for advise about whether to run for President.
Yes, it does add to the implausibility of Obama’s pretence that he didn’t know all of Wright’s views or that he can now easily distance himself from Wright.....who has been the #1 guy to Obama in so many ways for 20 years.
This CBS video is nothing but a suck-up puff piece - a perfect example of how the MSM adores liberal corrupt politicians!

Here’s the Liar Obama caught telling both sides of was/wasn’t in Church:

“Hallelujah Barack”?? Praise and Adore Barack?? What in the name of God is wrong with these people? They have no fear of God at all. They don’t even pretend to actually worship God. No wonder Obama is so screwed up. This church is all he knows of Jesus Christ. Which is to say he doesn’t know Him at all.

"I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery; Do not have any other gods before me."
Exodus 20: 2-3
It's pretty clear to me that Obama's relationship to this "church" isn't a a faith based relationship. He's a member in order to further his political career. IMHO, he joined it because of his political ambitions, not spiritual ambitions. Some day, he will have to answer some very specific questions about this behavior, too.....
Disgusting. It says a lot about the people attending that “church,” too. They’re just political groupies looking for a Hitler figure.
I honestly don’t see how somebody like this, with associates such as he has, can seriously be in the running for the presidency, even with the loons that dominate the Dem party. It’s like a bad dream.
I couldn’t understand what Obama said in front of the black audience (after giving his “white” appeal to another audience).
What was he saying?
