“The front-runner for the Democratic presidential nomination said he was not in attendance when Wright made any of the statements and never heard such talk in private conversations.”

I wonder if Obama is worried about pictures of him attending those sermons popping up..

Apparently his goal for change is to put his boot on the neck of the eeeevil white man when he's prez.

He must think we’re morons to buy his BS.

Millions of voters have proven him correct.

He won’t. Obama’s lying.

Of course he wont. And I know he's lying. I'm just making the point is all. Obama's a member and joined at the hip with Wright because they're one-of-a-kind.

The horse is out of the barn on this one.

The koran encourages lying to infidels... osamabama is smart enough to hide the fact of his true religion. He CHOSE the most vile anti-Western and racist church in his home territory in which to raise his family. I don't hear or see much of Jesus in that Christian church!

We know what the Rev Wright thinks about white America and isn’t shy about stating it from the pulpit. We gotta assume the clips we’ve heard recently aren’t rare exceptions and that there is no way Obama can be a 20 year church member and not be aware of this.

For my money, he’s (obama) got to be in agreement with the Rev, albeit silently.

I don't buy any of this..much too late..who in the right mind stays with a church that spews this venom and then can say they never heard the pastor say these things and be as close as Obama has been and not know something of this so called minister's philosophy? It explains a lot as to why Mrs Obama is the angry black woman she is..I wonder if she went to that church as a young girl? Just looking at her face you see rage and anger in a woman who has great fortune, education and few worries compared to the rest of us.

Anger would not be my first emotion if I got payed that much $$$. Wait, I forgot all the pain and shame at attending Ivy league schools. Poor baby. I would suggest a kinder pastor honey to help you overcome the anger and shame.

He had all his children baptized in that church. I don't think his kids are very old, so that couldn't have been too long ago.

How do you go to a church (apparently very regularly) and don't know what the preacher is about?

Hillary may never have been called the N word but I have been called the B word having been born on the wrong side of the blanket. I guess I could go about hating the rest of the world too..and talk about second class citizens? Those of us born in MO prior to 1986 cant even have access to our original birth certificates, names etc..not a bit of it. WE can get non id info only.

"BUT the campaign is still keeping him on as spiritual advisor, eh?

IMHO, they?ll boot him eventually, saying he decided to leave over too much controversy. I find it hard to believe he never heard of any of this stuff, though."

I find it impossible to believe. I also believe that that people are carefully going over every tape that has ever been released by that church to see if they can find Obama in attendance during any of the more incendiary comments by Wright. Obama had better be very sure of his statements or someone will prove that he is a liar.

Well... maybe he just doesn't go to Church very often. You know, there's a lot of statements, but maybe the good Rev. tones it down on Christmas and Easter and maybe Obama’s not serious about being a Christian, only does it for political purposes so folks don't think he's a muslim or something. And maybe he's just a C&E'er.
Remember, the Obamas have two daughters. When they were babies, there were probably times when the girls started crying in church. Apparently, Barack was the one who took them out to the vestibule so they wouldn't disturb the other worshipers. Obviously, once he saw Barack disappear from view, Rev Wright began his hate America sermons. Judging from her "first time in my adult life I've been proud of America" comments, Michelle heard the good reverend's speeches very clearly.

Here is a link to Trinity web site:

http://www.tucc.org/about.htm

If you watch the first you tube video on the home page you’ll I think you’ll Barack Hussein Obama sitting next to Racist Wright. The church is obviously comitted to Africa moreso than America. “God Damn America!”

Obama is going down. Problem for the Dems is that when he does there is no way Hillary hangs on the the black vote. And she can’t win a general without 90% of it!

Obama is half white but that is totally ignored by the media and by Obama himself who was raised by his white grandparents after his mother died. His father walked out on them..and he hates the white side of himself..go figure.

Hey, I agree with you.

That’s why I have said when this broke that this is a real legitimate issue, and it is big enough to take Obama down. If properly exposed and repeated, it could very well tank him.

People know why they are in the church they are. Because they more or less agree with what is being said at the pulpit. They may even really get along well with the pastor. But for most Christians I know, if they are hearing ungodly things, racist things, things you deep in your heart don’t believe, you don’t stay there.

Barack stayed there. 20 years. He believes the venom this guy spews out. Michelle opens her mouth and you hear it. She believes it. The Obamas are racists. They think this country sucks, that’s it’s 1950 and there’s no hope for the black man. Whitey is privileged and stomps on the black man anytime he tries to get ahead. Makes me sick.
