Obama's new pastor problem

[Blarch]

FUCK YOU ...FUCK YOU MOTHERFUCKERS, FUCK THIS SHIT

[K Gardner]

1. K and freakin R !

[LSparkle]

2. Effin' A -- YEAH!

K & R!

[BlooInBloo]

3. Allong with all others who trumpet it.

[AllentownJake]

4. Right Wing Pastors

Say things 10 times crazier and they are given a pass because the majority of the base believes the crazy things they are saying.

[elocs]

5. The bizarre notion that Obama is responsible for what every unauthorized person

who claims to support him says or does on his behalf. Sometimes I think that these religious people who cannot control their mouths are utterly stupid. Stop helping already and just sit down and shut up!

[JoFerret]

32. He does need to stop

putting them on his advisory panels or whatever.

I find ALL these religious ranters - of every stripe - despicable.

[MethuenProgressive]

6. Only a zealot drunk on kool aid wouldn't find that last video offensive.

Approving of it shows a lack of decency.

[Blarch]

8. who approved of it ?

[Prophet 451]

10. Yeah, it's offensive

No question, Pfleger went over the line. It wasn't from Obama or approved by him though and he's not responsible for every dimwit who chooses to endorse him (nor is HRC responsible for the blathering of Limbaugh).

[joeybee12]

24. Hilary's never called Rush her "spiritual adviser" and had him on her

campaign staff. Get the difference?

[Occam Bandage]

11. Yep. It was offensive. Who the fuck cares? Obama had nothing to do with it.

[seriousstan]

15. Obama actively sought these people out and made them part of his religion for 20 fucking years.

But I guess that doesn't say anything about Obama.

[Occam Bandage]

17. The "new guy" is a Catholic priest. He isn't a member of Obama's church. Obama didn't seek him out.

[seriousstan]

18. Obama has had a relationship with him for 20 years, but you keep telling yourself otherwise.

He is a frequent speaker at Trinity. I guess Obama only went to church to sleep through the sermons.

[NOLALady]

20. He has a relationship with many people.

Some he may agree with, others not so much.

Black folk don't need ministers to tell them this country has racial problems.

[seriousstan]

22. He certainly has. Funny how many of them he is now disavowing.

I guess he'll need another bus to throw them under if this keeps up.

[Texasgal]

25. Wait a minute,,,

A VISITOR that comes to Obama's church now speaks for that whole congregation?

REALLY?

[SparkyMac]

31. Will you admit that church draws wierdos like a cow turd draws flies ?

[JoFerret]

33. He made him an ADVISOR

or some such.

That implies an active choice in my mind.
But....whatever.

[ampad]

19. I see the 20yr meme is making the rounds once again

Fox news is great! :sarcasm:

[seriousstan]

21. How about CNN? Or ABC?

[druidity33]

29. what?

you think they're different?


:eyes:

[JoFerret]

26. To be fair - I do think these creeps

mean something to him and his world view. Who knows why. Who knows what.

I wish it were not so.

Bad Achilles heel.

7. tucker was a complete asshole on Hardball tonight, i wish he would just go away

[my3boyz]

12. Glad his show was cancelled! nt

[bluestateguy]

9. Looks like a Georgetown Cocktail Party invitation list

[ampad]

13. Happy to rec

On a serious note this is a non-story.

[Blarch]

14. agreed.

Thats the point of the thread.

:toast:

[shayes51]

16. Now that's a nice attitude!

[Condem]

23. Thank you, Blarch!

[billyoc]

27. A stunning array of ass-hattery.

[D23MIURG23]

28. Praise Bob!
