Not So Fast, Barack

Decision '08: Barack Obama is changing churches in hopes of changing the subject long enough to slip into the White House. But it won't change what he believes. Who'll pin him down?
A careful reading of the transcript of Obama's press conference over the weekend reveals that he neither denounced his church nor permanently quit it. He twice left open the door to rejoining Trinity United Church of Christ after the election. He said he and his wife merely decided "it was going to be very difficult to continue our membership there so long as I was running for president."
Typical of the coverage of this candidate, nobody in the press followed up with tough questions. Nobody bothered to parse his words.
They just lobbed more softballs. "Do you feel like your faith and your church come under fire, more rapid fire, than other candidates in this presidential election?" asked one reporter. "How do you feel about that?"
We already know how Obama feels. He's frosted that this paper and others outside the mainstream liberal media exposed his militantly Afro-centric, anti-American church and preacher.

BARACKIANITY PING!
Has the Magic One (much props to his name) spoken? Were you able to catch a glimpse of his reflective glory?
I believe a reading from the book of Mediocrity is in order.
To: Jo Nuvark
As it says in the book of Mediocrity, verses 3:1-3, from the Politically Correct Gender Neutral Barackianity for Dummies Version (PCGNBDV):
And then the Magic One told them a story. He said, "Once there were two domestic assistants. One was given ten talents for his/her/its labor, and the other was given twenty talents for his/her/its labor. The former domestic assistant asked, 'Why have I received less than my co-worker?' So I replied, it doesn't matter: hand it over. Thank you, come again!"

I’m immensely ashamed of that post and apologize for any
offense it has caused you. I simply miss typed and didn’t
recognize the error until it was too late.

LOL@Austrian lace. I wasn’t offended, just thought you were saying a naughty word.
