It's not bad enough that the President is playing the race card by opening campaigning for blacks to organize their fellow blacks to vote for him because he's black, but now he's violating the separation of church and state restrictions by campaigning for black people to pressure their church's to get out his message via the "faith community". He urges his fellow American's to become "faith captains".

Church's who do this would be inviting IRS scrutiny. If they do this, they better pray Obama wins.

(As soon as the NYT or WP reports on this breaking story, I'll link it)

I think the author was being somewhat timid with the subject by using Ron Paul as an example. A better one, that merely extrapolates going through the door Obama opened....a new campaign....Whites for (to be announced) we need you to get out and vote as we outnumber the opposition.

Absurd? Why? The point is he is demonstrating he is unsure of that the following he had in 2008 might not be there in 2012. Why else would he cross the line and deploy a tactic he certainly knows is going to be seized upon.
In this day and age of scrutiny of all things being said, for him to launch a racial plea shows desperation. He and his handlers are achieving new lows!!!

That's an excellent point BTK. Maybe he IS feeling the pressure. The surging gas prices can't be giving him any comfort coupled with the rising unemployment numbers and the backlash of his Afghanistan apology.

I'm sorry I didn't notice that you linked this story in another thread before I posted this thread. The story needs to be told, though. So I hope you don't mind.

Then add the fact that in the African American community, it is very difficult to speak out against this kind of crap too. If you aren't on board with your "people", things are going to be rough for you. Ask Allen West, Alan Keyes, JC Watts, and Star Parker.

Like him or not you have to hand it to this guy. He will stop at nothing to transform America.

I am still sending my wishes into the universe for a change.
I am tired of him and his crew!

First he says to the churches in health care, my way or the highway, and then he has the, you know whats, to ask for them to help him. Wow!

Go tell it on the mountain...o'er the fields.....and every where......

Look at the reactionary right wing lunatic fringe website that the story comes from. It is the same one that had the false conspiracy theory one of Homeland Security having a Directive of spotting terrorists or Nazis.

The bet is still for an ice-cole Yeungling against a bar-brand bourbon if anyone can show me a .pdf of that particular Dept. of Homeland Security Directive.

Don't forget H. Eugene Stevens, Oprah Winfrey, or Ventris Gibson.

Sometimes you kill me Buggy. You go off on the media site that brings you the story, and somehow that negates it??

Did you notice that "Prison Planet" presented a video of the one, the only, the race baiting President of the United States speaking in a video ad. The words coming straight out of his mouth??

Unfreakinbelievable.

Here......I'll separate it from the website, so you don't have to worry about the monsters under the bed tonight if you actually looked at the story. (Near the end is the call for the "congregation captains". If you won't believe me, will you at least believe him.)

You can send your wish to the moon care of: Newt Gingrich.

When are people going to realize the Hitler did the same thing that obama is doing. Don't be fooled by this guy. Read your history books.

You can send your wish to the moon care of: Newt Gingrich.

Nope, mine are out to the universe! I am not for Newt, can't win. The moon is not far enough.

I sent it out to the big one. Really want him out!

But thanks for the options.

the debate/rebutal always seems to default back to a discussion about the credibility/caliber/character/political origin of the messenger and a complete absence of commentary on the validity of the message.
Very consistent!

Seriously.......this is a story where all the libs "can and will do" is attack the messenger, and/or ridicule the poster, and those who agree that this is a significant issue.

Divert and ridicule; it's all the libs have.
