Obama resigns from his church (breaking CNN)

CNN

[byteback]

CNN story. Apparently Obama sent a letter to his pastor but that has yet to be released.

[StAthanasiustheGreat]

He had no idea his church was so hate-filled, once he discovered it, he had to move on. (SARCASM)

[Roscoe Karns]

Only took 20 years.

[Just mythoughts]

Well that does it, guess I will have to vote for him now!!!! (NOT)

[cruise_missile]

It’s getting crowded under the bus.

[Fzob]

I guess political expediency is now a new word for change

[MEG33]

SO SOON?/S

[stylin19a]

It’s getting pretty crowded under that bus

[EagleUSA]

How token. Only TEN YEARS too late. Sorry Osama Obama -— the tokenism here does not change ten years of establish history of America and “whitey” hating.

[digger48]

Sorry Barry.....you and that church are joined at the hip forever.

[stylin19a]

i need to take a speed typing course :)

[umgud]

Scrappleface?

[dawn53]

I didn’t know you could “resign” from a church unless you were on staff.

[newheart]

Must have been talking to Oprah again.

[Navy Patriot]

Oh no, Obama's gone Uncle Tom, them black "Christian" churches will never forgive him.

Well, I guess it's back to Islam.

[y6162]

Lotta bodies under that bus....

[Morgana]

Well he is about 20 years to late to help him.

[big'ol_freeper]

[cruise_missile]

I guess this means he can go back to the church of his youth, Islam.

[Jeff Chandler]

This is the kind of Change I had Hoped for.

[Roscoe Karns]

What happened to: “I could no more distance myself from Jeremiah Wright than I could from my white grandmother” ?

[Morgana]

OKAY OKAY NOW THAT HE HAS LEFT THAT CHURCH WE ALL NEED TO PICK A NEW CHURCH FOR HIM!!!!

ANY SUGGESTIONS?

Church of Elvis Presley?

[y6162]

I resigned from the vestry of a Episcopalian church. Priest was going to teach AIDs stuff to little kids. I said what are you going to teach them? He said that God was not punishing gays. I said how would you know.

[Fiddlstix]

Too little, too late.

[LibWhacker]

But still gets the newsletter?

[Disturbin]

He must have to get going at a pretty fast clip in order to be able to run over so many people at once!

[commish]

OKAY OKAY NOW THAT HE HAS LEFT THAT CHURCH WE ALL NEED TO PICK A NEW CHURCH FOR HIM!!!!

Bob Jones University?

[Joiseydude]

He’ll be back in 160 days.

[frankjr]

This is a mistake on his part. It makes him look much worse. Before he could position it as it’s a black church thing the non-blacks couldn’t understand. Now it looks like he is an idiot who took 20 years to assess a situation and make a decision...after exposing his children to it for years.

If this guy wins in November, the end is near.

[BallyBill]

So is he a buffoon or just a simple moron for resigning AFTER the Klan has been exposed?

[Phantom Lord]

I resigned from the vestry of a Episcopalian church. Priest was going to teach AIDs stuff to little kids. I said what are you going to teach them? He said that God was not punishing gays. I said how would you know.

Because the CIA invented it to kill black people. Everyone knows that.

[Enosh]

‘Sup with Laz? What’d he do this time?

[dawn53]

Interesting. I’m not familiar with church membership rules.

[Wallace T.]

Oprah Winfrey had the sense to leave that church a few years ago, something the Ivy League educated Chicago lawyer running for President lacked.

[BenLurkin]

Back to the mosque?

[Morgana]

Oh I think the Episcopalian church should teach AIDS stuff to kids! Why yes! Don’t be gay, do drugs with needles, have lots of sex with people other than your married partner and you will not get AIDS!!! It is just how the Priest teaches it!

[SE Mom]

Roland Martin calling in to CNN now (breathlessly on his cell phone) saying “I can confirm”...

[Calvin Locke]

Is the wife under there yet?

I'm thinking of the rumors of the Pubbies having DVDs of Ma Belle, Michelle, ranting from the pulpit.

If true, I'd love to know just how he's going to divorce himself from her.

[digger48]

OKAY OKAY NOW THAT HE HAS LEFT THAT CHURCH WE ALL NEED TO PICK A NEW CHURCH FOR HIM!!!!

[cruise_missile]

Does Roland have that cool Star Trek uniform on?

[geo40xyz]

After 20 years.... its not for REAL:-)

[airborne]

No word on whether his wife has?

I'm sure she was instrumental in selecting this church in the first place, as a “proper” place to provide their children's religious education.

She must be pissed!!

[laurens pawpaw]

This church sounds like the old rock and roll song -Hotel California, “you can check out anytime but you can never leave.”
Sounds like scary people to me.

[Jeff Chandler]

‘Sup with Laz? What’d he do this time?

I don’t know if he’s gone for good or not. You can see the development of his ouster through this thread: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/2023686/posts

It all started with post #13.(The post was deleted but you can read it in my reply on post #44).

[fanfan]

LOL!

[bruinbirdman]

"ANY SUGGESTIONS?"

Where does Al "Shake Down" Sharpton preach? Jesse "The Extorter" Hijackson?

yitbos

[Hazwaste]

Maybe he sat in the back of the church for 20 years and didn’t realize that the pastor was a racist?

[upsdriver]

WE WANT HILLARY! WE WANT HILLARY!

[dfwgator]

You mean Laz got banned over a stupid “Sex and the City” thread?

[TheRedSoxWinThePennant]

I am sure plenty of Mosques will take him
