Obama on the Resignation - Too Little, Too Late, Too Lame!

"I have tremendous regard for the great young pastor"...Just not his judgment in whom he invites in to his pulpit!

And he's wearing the flag pin again! About a minute fifteen seconds into the tape, he starts giving a pretty convincing commercial for just how great the church is. "Extraordinary works" the church is doing! They feed the hungry! Help people with their medical care! Barack continues to admire the work Rev. Wright did in building up the church.
From this culpa-less mea, it's hard to understand why he's leaving! If there's nothing wrong with the church, stand on principle, stand firm and devil take the hindmost!

Barack said:

"Every time something is said in the church by anyone associated with Trinity, including guest pastors, the remarks will be imputed to me even if they totally conflict with my long held views, statements and principles."

This is a red herring. The problem isn't that remarks by just anyone associated with the church are imputed to Barack Obama. The problem is the high percentage of race-baiting, racist and America bashing pastors and guest pastors that have regularly cycled through the pulpit and official publications of the church. It's all very noble that Obama wishes to spare the janitor and choir members the hassle of going to church with a public figure. The truth is, that Obama doesn't want to denounce the racist ideas and rhetoric put forth by the likes of Wright and Pfleger, so he distances himself from the "church" instead. Not even close! No cigar!
