158. Obama isn't endorsing McClurkin. McClurkin is a minor peripheral RESULT of 15 yrs of Dems
giving in to the GOP strategy - what part of that is such a mystery to you?

After FIFTEEN FOCKING YEARS of the GOP targeting black churches for political gain using this strategy, you can be damn well certain that it is a reality that a NEW Dem leader will have to deal with.

Obama has NEVER endorsed McClurkin and those of you who want to PRETEND that McClurkin and other effected black churches have been more powerful in their positions than a PRESIDENT Bill Clinton was leading the Dem PARTY halfway down the path of bigotry to MEET the GOP and congratulate them on their working strategy, well, I call horseshit or a complete lack of a sense of proportion.

One would have to be delusional to believe that Obama as a current Dem leader or ANY black church leader has wielded more of the power that marched gay rights backwards the last 15 years more than President Clinton and The Fellowship mission did.
