Obama said he and his wife, Michelle, had notified the church in a letter Friday that they “were withdrawing as members of Trinity,” in part because of “a cultural and a stylistic gap.”

True. It's been done before. He could have invented a fictional Irish grandfather from several generations ago. It would give a whole new meaning to "Black Irish."
But sure, seriously, many Jewish immigrants and those from Eastern and Southern Europe "re-ethnicized " their surnames at Ellis island.
The phrase a day late and a dollar short comes to mind....
If I were Michele Obama ,I’d start getting nervous of my status also ! This shows that he will throw anything under the train that holds him back!~
The actual title is “Obama Quits Trinity.” Lot’s of us add a short editioral comment in the parenthesis if there is room - an example is “Barf Alert” or in my case when Richardson was running for President and building a railroad with our road tax money “Richardson’s Railroad.” Though this one might give some mods heartburn, most will leave it as is. We shall soon see who is right.
The Obama voters are beyond dumb.
You have to be to suck in that kind of chocolate koolaid! That's why a 4 or 5 month drumbeat by the DBM of nothing ever happened here could remove his current disintegration.
Never underestimate the revisionist DBM.

“History will show the end of Obama’s candidacy began today”
If only......
What the frell is a “stylistic gap”?
LOL...BTTT
I watched him talk about quitting his church, and I have to say that was the most uncomfortable new conference I have ever seen, the media continued to ask him more uncomfortable questions... pathetic scene
Probably more wishful thinking than anything else ... nothing short of that dead-girl-live-boy thing will tank this guy's candidacy, and I'm not exactly sure that would do it either. He is as teflon as anything we've ever witnessed in politics.
It’s a little late for him to try and rip that particular bandaid off quickly...
His base will not be amused...
Like Atillio to Alito.
Well if I may paraphrase Dirty Harry, I'm all broken up about that man's feelings.
It's where the belly-roll midriff shows on a tubby girl wearing lowrider jeans.
Yup!
He can't bring himself to admit that he's been attending a racist church for 20 years. The press should, but won't, ask him just when and how he discovered thts gap in culture and style.
You and I think alike, Mr. Wil.
