Obama's a Pimp?
 
If this is posted elsewhere, my apologies.

Did y'all hear about this pastor in Harlem, Dr. James David Manning, who leads ATLAH Ministries? At the pulpit, he called Obama a pimp, Obama's father a whore and his mother "white trash."

I don't think it was an appropriate way to get the underlying point across. The comments were so outrageous that it's hard to take him seriously. I also want to see which campaign ads he's talking about. I haven't seen any "big chested white women" in particular.

Can anyone find an example??

http://www.livesteez.com/videos/watch/XLUli4q <---- That's the video in question for those who didn't know.

I heard this on the Russ Parr Morning Show yesterday morning and I had a headache for the rest of the day. The language, the content, the delivery, everything about it -- made me sick.

He should lose his tax exempt status if he's making these remarks from the pulpit.

Found another version: http://youtube.com/watch?v=khuu-RhOBDU

So, this came out last month??

ETA: Barack is an "emissary of the devil"???

LOL. It's like a SNL skit. He said "tits" on the pulpit. Were those DDs officially part of Obama's campaign? I saw the video in question and it looks low budget like the Obama campaign did not fund it. Oh well.

In other news....
http://atlah.org/

LOL. They even do a school of theology and there are people who claim a Masters in Divinity from them. Some of their community service efforts appear noble on the surface but the religious teachings beyond that are evasive based on this site....

I think it's safe to assume that he didn't get his PhD from an accredited institution with an accredited doctoral of ANYTHING program.

I think it is funny that he thinks he is losing followers because he doesn't support Obama. Never occurred to him that it is HOW he expresses his dislike of Obama... Maybe using analogies to pimping and saying "tits" in church isn't going to earn much credibility with his followers...

Simply ridiculous.

ETA: I'm still watching the video and just heard him call Obama a "long-legged freak." I love it!

DSTCHAOS 03-11-2008 02:21 PM

He's making himself look like a lunatic. Based on the other sites I have read, he's been dismissed by everyone (except his disillusioned followers) as a lunatic who should be in a padded cell and who holds a PhD from Cracker Jack University.

It's Obama Girl, who if you haven't seen her is here: I've got a crush... on Obama

She has a sequel too. And no, not official campaign material :p

LOL. So why is Dr. Cracker Jack University using that against Obama?

Did you see that on his title they have him as "the honorable"? When did Cracker Jack University start giving out law degrees and making people judges?
