Black Pastors: Pride In Obama Has Turned to Shame
Posted by Jim Hoft on Saturday, July 7, 2012, 6:51 PM
Welcome to our world.
A group of 1,300 black pastors called on blacks to withhold their support for Barack Obama.
Newsmax reported:
A coalition of African-American pastors is calling on blacks to boycott President Barack Obama and sign a petition demanding that the administration withdraw support for gay marriage.
The group, the 1,300-member Coalition of African-American Pastors, says it was snubbed by Obama and Attorney General Eric Holder when it demanded a meeting to discuss same-sex unions. The group had requested the meeting last month.
“By embracing gay marriage, President Obama is leading the country down an immoral path,” Rev. William Owens, president of the Memphis-based coalition, said on Friday, The Washington Examiner reports. “Some things are bigger than the next election.”
The pastors are angered with Obama’s recent endorsement of gay marriage. But the president has not suggested that he would back federal legislation permitting same-sex marriage.
The coalition supports African-American pastors who believe marriage should be between a man and a woman.
“The black church has always been the conscience of America, and today we are calling on black pastors and black Christians to withhold support from President Obama until he corrects course,” Owens said.
Obviously, they haven’t evolved enough yet on the issue.

Hallelujah, they finally see the light.

Have they not been told? Black issues no longer matter to the Democratic Party. Having voted in overwhelming unison (greater than 90% typically), Democrats feel there is zero risk that blacks will go elsewhere. Seriously, you think your protest will change black voters minds? Just as long as Jessie Jackson and other message deliverers gets up on the podium and scares the community with “Them northerner abolitionists are gonna kill you, eat your children and rape your wives!” drivel, blacks will do what they’re told to by the Progressive Master.
We’re shackled and chained, only by our own doing.

Militant conservative commented:
Pastors, Obama is regularly
Advocating sin. He pits one
class against another. This is
Coveting
Tired Okie commented:
He has never cared about the blacks they are just another bunch of useful idiots in his mind.
What he really feels for America and Americans–all Americans–white, black, brown, red, yellow, and all other mixes of race and skin color. He is “One oily reptile”.

96% will still vote for “their people.” Throw Israel to the sharks, Jews will still vote for the one. Absolute insanity.
Militant conservative commented:
Damn itouch.
Coveting you neighbors stuff.
Major sin in the book of rules.
Obama is a deceiver and a
Liar. Also sins unto GOD.
The bastard is nothing but
a finger pointing terd of Ill
Will. Obama is the devil in
Black skin.
Sasja commented:
I never knew Black churches were the conscience of America. Fancy that.
Mr. Scratch’s emissary has been busy destroying our wonderful Republic. Pitting one group against another, inciting violence, spitting on our Constitution, just to name a few, and these pastors are only upset because of his stance on gay marriage.
pink tie Republican commented:
Yo pastors, homey is also on the DL, yo.
Jayne on Left Coast commented:
#8 Sasja That was my first thought also. If the Black church had a conscience they would be Pro-life. Zippy is pro-death, how many Black babies never had a chance. Genocide on his “own people”.
I'm not a racist; I don't like Biden or Pelosi either commented:
#8 – right on. I mean it’s a start, but if gay marriage is the only issue the black community has with this guy, America is doomed.
Swifty commented:
When he was only the abortion president, he was alright. tic
paul52 commented:
My dear revs: Obama is pro abortion, pro infanticide, and pro black liberation “theology”. Whaddya say…… crickets, and more crickets.
Blacque Jacques Shellacque commented:
Hallelujah, they finally see the light.
Not necessarily.
If Obie recanted his gay marriage “support”, the majority of blacks would fall right back in line, assuming that based on this subject, they had no intention to vote for him in the first place.
Multitude commented:
This does explain why Michelle has finally found in it in her to go to church, only to tell the volks that church is a place where people should be told political messages. There’s no better place to instruct volks, to tell them what is expected of them.
Gadfly commented:
@ #6…Mega ditto’s. Nothing is going to change. It IS all about skin color.
Skip commented:
But when it’s time to vote they will vote for Obama!
