The media has been littered for the past two or three days with the "news" that Obama has attended a church for the past 20 years give or take and hasn't heard what his pastor has to say.
Obama is issuing statements to distance himself from the poison this supposed "minister of God" has been spewing to his congregation and fondly believing that we're not going to notice that he either hasn't been paying attention to what his supposed spiritual adviser has to say or he's just been caught spinning the truth into the next galaxy. Either case is not a good reflection on Obama.
I've never seen any person as anything but a soul created by God and therefore having the same value and dignity, given by God, as my own. I've never understood a distinction based on the shade of a person's skin. God made everyone, God is good, what God has made is good, even if we ARE all sinners.
That said, I'm beginning to believe that we should be paying close attention to these people. One has to hope that people are alert enough to catch all the "little slips" Obama, his wife and their cohorts are making. Their "slip" is showing and it's shocking to see this kind of hatred. What would he do, in a position of authority such as the presidency of the United States, to the people it appears he has such loathing for.
Bottom line: I don't believe for one minute that Obama is unaware of the vindictive rhetoric and incitement to hatred this so called minister vomits from his mouth. I do find it hard to believe that any thinking person would believe this line of spin.
Even assuming for a moment that Obama has attended this church for 20 plus years, and has had this individual as a spiritual adviser for however long, not to mention that this individual has given up preaching to assist Obama, .........
What does it say about Obama, if he could sail through 20 years and miss all that?
