The White House is facing criticism for their decision to invite the Rev. Al Sharpton to the White House Easter Prayer Breakfast, while excluding top leaders of the Southern Baptist Convention – the nation’s largest Protestant denomination.
Dozens of Christian leaders from around the nation were invited to the East Room Wednesday for a time of prayer and reflection as well as remarks from President Barack Obama and Vice President Joseph Biden.
A White House aide said the heads of major denominations and non-profit leaders were invited – including Cardinal Donald Wuerl of the Archdiocese of Washington, DC, Archbishop Demetrios of the Greek Orthodox Church and Sharon Watkins, president of the Christian Church, Disciples of Christ.
However, top leaders of the Southern Baptist Convention were not invited. A spokesman for the SBC confirmed that SBC President Bryant Wright and SBC Executive Committee President Frank Page were not extended invitations. Neither was Richard Land, president of the Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission, the denomination’s public policy arm.
The White House declined to release a full list of those invited and those in attendance and the Office of Faith-Based and Neighborhood Initiatives did not return calls seeking comment.
But the Obama Administration did extend an invitation to Sharpton, the MSNBC host who’s come under fire for his inflammatory statements in the aftermath of the Trayvon Martin shooting.
That drew a sharp rebuke from Robert Jeffress, pastor of the First Baptist Church in Dallas.
“It appears that the Obama administration is more interested in the views of race-baiting, black liberation theology spokesmen like Jeremiah Wright and Al Sharpton than those of mainstream, evangelical Christians,” Jeffress told Fox News.
He said the White House could be sending a message to Southern Baptists.
“To not invite leaders of the nation’s largest Protestant denomination to the White House Easter Prayer Breakfast is more evidence of this administration’s tin ear toward evangelical Christians,” he said.
Richard Land, president of the Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission, said the White House is free to invite who they choose to invite.
“My feelings are not hurt,” he told Fox News.
Land also said he was not surprised that the White House invited Sharpton.
“As my east Texas grandmother once said, ‘Birds of a feather tend to flock together,’” he said.

maybe they weren't invited because most evangelicals are racists and bigots.
You are full of sh1t, just like obama and the carpetbagger sharpton!
Charles Halliburton and they are usually bitter and angry at anyone who isn't like them
Yeah Al Sharpton is not racist or a bigot…..oh wait a minute
"Charles Halliburton and they are usually bitter and angry at anyone who isn't like them"
It reads as if you were describing a "TOLERANT LIBERAL" to me. Are you sure you're not describing your self? You are one of the "tolerant libs" aren't you?
Nick Wright you really don't think sharpton is racist?
Jim McCandless I find it absolutely laughable that any white person would claim to be a victim of racism. I'm not a fan of Sharpton's, but please don't act like black-on-white racism is a bigger problem than white-on-black racism.
Evangelicals are just ordinary people who believe in Jesus. Some are good and some are bad, just like blacks…….some are good and some are bad. You, however, have a typical victim mentality and everything is the white man's fault … even if you break a shoe string, it has to be whitey's fault. No wonder you have never amounted to anything … your ignorance keeps getting in the way of any intelligence you seem to have.
Dana Rainey I'm absolutely tolerant of everyone except bigoted religious nuts who think the US should be some sort of xtian theocracy.
Nick Wright not claiming you are a fan and I did not claim to be a victim, so don't put words in my mouth, ok?. ANY racism is wrong. Sahrpton makes a living race baiting and is usually wrong- remember tawana brawley? the duke lacrosse team? have you seen an apology for those trumped up charges?
Because obummer is a niqer qweer and so is his butte buddy Ali
Rebecca Landry that kind of post only hurts your arguments and makes you look dumb- please refrain
Most black churches are of the "Southern Baptist" denomination and I bet they wouldn't call themselves "racists or bigots"!
Chrysteen Proctor Gabbert excellent point!
iS THAT LIKE "MOST BLACKS ARE STUPID AND ON WELFARE"?
Rebecca Landry you fit in nicely with Todd Starnes and his ilk. Clinging to grievance with anything that is non-conservative and non-christian. Clinging to hate. Thank you for proving my point.
your earlier comment about all evangelicals- painting with a rather wide brush, aren't you? or do you happen to know most evengelicals
Jim McCandless perhaps all is too broad a brush. but hatred is quite prominent in evangelical circles. I'm an atheist, I think religion is stupid. But from my perspective, its from the evangelicals where I see people trying to make their religion the law of the land and its also where I see a lot of racism and hate.
Nick Wright i am a christian and it is ok if we disagree with that, but calling most people names because you don't agree with them is just plain wrong. i have not seen the hatred and racism you profess to have seen- have any examples? when has anyone tried to make religion the law of the land? and don't even start with the separation of church and state in the constitution. it does not exist- you ought to read it sometime
Jim McCandless separation of church and state absolutely does exist. for you to say otherwise is basically implying that religion(specifically yours) should be the law of the land. Our govt is secular and honestly as an Obama supporter I am disappointed he would even have this prayer meeting.

Nick Wright , actually, black on white racism IS a problem. Try educating yourself on some actual facts, rather than what your liberal media buddies tell you. The statistics don't lie, and black on black crime and black on white crime FAR exceeds white on black crime. But as long as we have Sharpton and Jackson around, racism will be alive and well. Notice how Zimmerman is a WHITE Hispanic? Gotta make sure we somehow know that the white part gets in there so it can be a "hate" crime, eh? Of course, the black kids that torched the white kid had nothing to do with race, and the 2 black kids that killed the small (white) business owner recently had nothing to do with race either. And the Black Panther militants are what? Ignorant fool….
Nick Wright no, it does not exist in the constitution, as i suggested earlier, you should read it sometime. Saying that implies nothing- it is simply stating a fact. Once again, you have chosen to put words in my mouth to suit your arguement, which is not based on facts, simply hearsay and hatred of all things religous. For anyone reading this, this is a tactic right out of alinskys palybook and i undertook this debate knowing that this person would defult to the liberal tactics so prevalent today. Never let facts get in the way of a good argument, and discredit or smear when all else fails. Again, if you ever want to be honest, look me up, i am on facebook. I am tired of liberals using lies, and half truths to further their agenda and will strike back every time i dee it happen- wish more folks would do the same
Jim McCandless Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof <– this implies separation of church and state. Any constitutional scholar will tell you this, and the supreme court has ruled the same. Further: no religious test shall ever be required as a qualification to any office or public trust under the United States.
If we don't have separation of church and state, then what do we have? A government run by religion? A theocracy?
Even Ronald Reagan disagrees with you: "We establish no religion in this country, we command no worship, we mandate no belief, nor will we ever. Church and state are, and must remain, separate.
All are free to believe or not believe, all are free to practice a faith or not, and those who believe are free, and should be free, to to speak of and act on their belief.
At the same time that our Constitution prohibits state establishment of religion, it protects the free exercise of all religions. And walking this fine line requires government to be strictly neutral"
Brent Swearingen Your arguments are invalid and off base, the reality is racism still lives because people allow it to. There is a long standing practice in this country of shrugging stuff off and trying to point the finger, the white guy getting torched is a tragedy, the store owner is even worse but the people who did it are in JAIL waiting for a day in court.
Freeman Liddell , my point is that the only time you hear about a story like this is if the liberal media pushes it for its own agenda, with the help of Jackson and Sharpton. Where are these race baiting fools when it's black on black crime, or black on white? The laws in that town are what they are, and the police are doing there job and collecting evidence in the case. Regardless of the outcome, it is a tragedy, but no moreso than any other tragedy of this kind when someone loses their life. The problem is with the biased attention and distorted facts…

Brent Swearingen I can completely understand and agree with your arguments, my only point is in every other situation the killer is sought out questioned and brought to justice in this case you have the man standing over the body claiming self defense, no pictures are taken of his injuries, no bandages on his nose or head, no blood on his shirt but his word is taken as proof, tell me where else this happens

Nick Wright – Exactly where does "Separation of Church and State" exist. I'll give you a clue – it only shows up in one of Thomas Jefferson's personal letters. Try to keep up.
Freeman Liddell – Do you really think these "racist" white policemen simply turned Zimmerman loose because he shot a black guy? Seriously, do you really believe that? And, if so, then why hasn't the new black Chief of Police had him arrested? Also, how do you know they don't have pictures, evidence, statements, etcetera….that proves it was actually self-defense?
Freeman Liddell , actually, the evidence is already out there with his injuries to the back of his head, support the claim of having his head slammed into the ground. This case is being evaluated and looked at, regardless of what the media or anyone else think or say that may benefit their own agendas. And as I said before, this wouldn't be an issue had the colors of the involved been switched.
Nick Wright the constitution was not written to imply anything- it says the state shall sponsor no religion
Bruce Ball do tell us what you have amounted to besides an idiot! As we are discussing why our first BLACK President did not extend an invitation to southern baptist christian pretenders.
Freeman Liddell You do realize that if Zimmern is arrested without a case against him, his attorney will demand a speedy trial and he could go free. The race baiters know this and yell for a quick arrest because they know it will not happen.
Charles Wright How about you get a clue and read up on who wrote the first amendment, and how that letter you mention describes Jefferson's intent. I'm not ignorant of history, I know very well of that letter and I know very well what the establishment clause means and how the courts have interpreted it.
But if you want to live in a theocracy you could try Saudi Arabia, or maybe Iran.
Jim McCandless Do you disagree with Ronald Reagan on separation of church and state?
Although you are probably to stupid to understand the point, it is your point that is racist and bigotted. They were not invited because Obama does not see any political value in them.
Nick Wright if you believe that just hop your butt on down to the hood some evening about 7 PM and walk around. Oh,,,, be sure you report back how the experience was.
and Al Sharpton is clearly a role model for all…….curious why Al and the liberal media can't find a recent picture of Trayvon the tattoos and gold teeth really change his angelic face…but then it's a better story using the old photos.
that would end there rant about a young black kid..
So, Ken Feldman, the kid deserves to die and his killer exonerated because he has gold teeth and tattoos?
Showe Themansupreme of course not, but don' t you think the truth should be told? or, are you not interested in the truth?
Showe Themansupreme You need to get a grip, man. Ken Feldman is saying that if the media is going to report it, they should get it totally right ….not skew it one way or the other. If Trayvon has a gold tooth and tatoos, then why would they only want to show him as he was 7 years ago? Why not show Zimmerman as he looked when he was 15? It's not white vs black as you seem to feel … it is simply a "get it right and be unbiased". And for all the hate-mongers to shut up and let the law precede as it should. Or don't you understand all that?
Showe Themansupreme – Just as his killer doesn't deserve to be convicted of murder just because he is black. Media bias screws this country up so much.
Showe Themansupreme Yes
U B right he was a thieving thug
Jim McCandless, the truth is the only thing that matters, but clearly its the thing that's in dispute and what everyone is searching for. What evidence do you or anyone have that this kid has tattoos or gold teeth? Even if he did, its completely irrelevant to this case. The truth is not for us to decide, its for a Judge and Jury of Zimmerman's peers. The bottom line is that the police should let the system work and not out and out decide the fate of the criminal Zimmerman.
Showe Themansupreme because he attacked the killer…that's why….. also….the gold teeth and tatoos reflect the stereotype of this type of person more than an innocent looking 12 yr old boy….. you are a racist.
Bruce Ball, no amount of pictures will change the fact that this kid is dead by the bullet of a self appointed neighborhood watch clown…
Showe Themansupreme we agree! but that is not what is happening. you and I have no idea of what happened that night because we, like everyone else , were not there, but he has been found guilty in the media, on the floor of congress, and by many others not interested in the truth. you are innocentuntil proven guilty in this country, unless you are dealing with the IRS. just wish some of our supposed leaders would remember that
yeap
Jim McCandless except we know he shot the ki,d and we know zimmerman followed the kid against police orders. who has a right to defend themselves in that situation?
Showe Themansupreme self appointed? clown? For someone who claims that the truth is all that matters, those statements show that you are being intellectually dishonest, you have zimmerman tried and convicted in your mind because that best fits the scenario you desire of white on black racism. your posts here have shown your true colors,( can't wait for you to read something racial into that) you don't want or need the truth to convict someone if he is white. what if it happened the way zimmerman said? will you apologize for calling him a murderer? doubt that, just as no one ever apologizes when they claim racism and it is not true. when you think you can be honest, give me a shout, I had hoped for a meaningful debate, but once again, the liberal mind just ignores any facts that don't fit their agenda- have a nice day dude
Chip Gruszczinski how do you know ha attacked him? because he has gold teeth and tattoos. oh that makes sense! or because the gunman said that? maybe he should've been attacked for following someone minding their own damn business. i'm pretty sure the stand your ground law should protect trayvon cause if he attacked him he obviously felt threatened.
Showe Themansupreme. You want the police to do their work, yet you have already made your decision made by calling Zimmerman a criminal. The proof that Martin had tattoos and gold teeth are in his current photos, whether relevant or not. The type of person he was is reflected in his behavior, which peers and school papers attest to, along with his twitter rants. The police cannot do their job because you have a clearly biased media that is already under heavy scrutiny and backlash for their persecution of Zimmerman without any facts, and by Sharpton and company (along with Obama…mr "lead by example") starting a race war to deflect attention away from any and all truth relating to what happened. Reverse racism is alive an well in this country…and the only reason you are in the corner of Martin is because you share the same skin color. Sad…
Moshood Adeniji noyt against police orders, it was a 911 dispatcher and he replied ok- sound like he was following him? and he was going back to his truck when the "kid" attacked him. police police reports also say he was on top of zimmerman banging his head against the sidewalk after punching him in the nose. what part of that do you choose not to believe? just wait until the investigation is complete is all i am saying
Showe Themansupreme you are ridiculous
Jim McCandless that was not police reports, those were the reports of zimmerman. there are inconsistent reports from witnesses which support both sides. no one knows what happened besides tryavon and zimmerman. but when you are followed by a stranger i'm pretty sure you'd believe you have the right to defend yourself. and stop putting words into peoples mouths. the "your siding with tryavon because your black" is ridiculous. neither I nor Showe have brought up race. i don't like black one black crime, white on white crime, white on black or black on white. but because i happen to be supporting the side of a man of color does not mean that is my reason. we don't want a story to fit white black racism. no one has said your support zimmerman because he is fair skinned. honestly i don't know why you would support him. you wouldn't want some maniac with a gun following you around.
Showe Themansupreme you know as well as anyone that the little thug was a thief and doper, not much worth worrying about.
Moshood Adeniji firdt off, go read any of my posts- you will nevber find that I said siding with trayvon because he is black in any of them, so make sure who you are talking to, ok? They WERE official ploice reportsd released today, so again, make sure of your facts before speaking. I am not supporting zimmerman, I am supporting the truth, which you have chocsen not to do by your own admission of not knowing what a fact is
Showe Themansupreme No the victem of the assault by Martin deserves to walk because he was within his rights to defend himself.
I am glad I cleared that up for you. If you have any other questionsa bout common sence feel free to ask.
Showe Themansupreme I was 100% in agreement with you until you called Zimmerman a criminal. Remember, innocent until proven guilty? We don't know the whole story yet, only what the media has shown and as the NBC investigation has shown, we are not getting the whole story yet.
Showe Themansupreme ,,,,,, Trayvon had other choices,,, he could have went home like any normal person,,, he could have asked Zimmerman why he was following in a respectful way, explained what he was doing and went on his merry way. No matter how you spin it – Trayvon created the problem that took his life. You dont go through life attacking people.
Jim McCandless the police report is of what zimmerman said because no one saw. and i wil;l directly copy and past what you said earlier: "you have zimmerman tried and convicted in your mind because that best fits the scenario you desire of white on black racism." you want the truth but you lied to me that quick like i didn't just read it. i should have known not to come to this website expecting a reasonable debate, cause you probably watch that channel.
Sam Huston how do you know he was a "victem" what exactly is a "victem" anyway? can you "cleared that up " for me

James Arthur Scott what right does that man have to question ANYONE about where they are going? this is stupid and as a person who has been confronted by a "neighborhood watchman" and with his dog none the less, i dont feel like i owe anyone an explanation about what im doing. HOW DARE YOU.. and all you bigots claiming self defense i want to see your reaction the next time a nut with a gun begins questioning your intentions in the rain in the dark…
Showe Themansupreme Of course that doesn't mean he deserves to die. But he also shouldn't be represented as something he wasn't. To be clear, I am not passing judgement on the young man, I didn't know him. I am saying he should be portrayed accurately, just like everyone else on the planet deserves to be. If he had gone through a period of Juvenile delinquency 5 years ago but had recently cleaned up his act you can bet we'd be seeing current pictures rather than old ones. This tragic case has been hijacked by people with their own agendas.
Brent Swearingen and Jim McCandless, Anyone who has a history of assaulting police officers and others are by definition a criminal. Anyone who assigns them self the neighborhood watch captain are by definition self appointed. The police do not assign guilt, they arrest on suspicion of a crime. This has absolutely nothing to do with race, I have not injected race in any of this. If it was a white person killed by the hand of a black I would be equally outraged. People who defend the indefensible because the President injected his opinion are by definition irrational idiots.

Showe Themansupreme , well, there's the problem, you wouldn't have heard of the story if Zimmerman was black and Martin was white. And I see you throw the "history of assault" thing out there in regards to Zimmerman, yet you have no problem omitting the problematic history of Martin. Yeah, your unbiased…but not racist
Freeman Liddell I have as much right to follow you in my neighborhood as you do to be walking there. In my neighborhood we ALL are the neighborhood watch. If we dont know you, you are acting sneaky and appear not to belong there, you will be followed and asked what you are doing. Dont like it? Move along. Now if you are smart mouthed, sullen, belligerant, I can assure you you will be answering law enforcement's questions. IF you attack me, I will meet it with deadly force. In other words, I will take you out of the gene pool and we will not be supporting your illegitimate kids with our tax dollars. Got it? It takes everyone in the neighborhood to keep the place clean and crime free. If you ever grow up i'm sure you will understand.
Brent Swearingen you are missing the point. There is nothing about this kid's past that warrants and justifies his death. The police reported that Zimmerman was arrested for assaulting a police officer. The police reported that he was a self appointed neighborhood watch captain. The police reported that he failed to qualify for the police academy due to his past criminal record. The whole situation is outrageous. We have a justice system for a reason and its blind (allegedly) for a reason. Race has absolutely nothing to do with this. I am disappointed when folks claim that black people are only interested in justice if the victim is black. The only reason Al Sharpton is shining light on this is that it has been swept under the rug for 1 month and basically closed by the police department before average citizens brought this to the attention of the public. The bottom line is a child is dead and will never grow up because a person may have committed a criminal act of homicide. This entire issue should be up to an untainted jury to decide not the opinion of the masses.
Moshood Adeniji that is not what you said i said- you implied i accused someone of siding with trayvon because he was black, nice attempt at subterfuge and deflection. you learned alinsky well. i did not lie to you- those are police reports- do you choose to ignore them? if you do, then my original statement stands- you want him guilty because it fits you desire to exploit what you mistakenly think was white on black racism. heres a hint- zimmerman is hispanic. does the not fit well in your world? so now we have to call him a white hispanic so your scenario works- again dude, just wait until the investigation is complete- if zimmerman is found guilty- i will lead the charge for justice, ok? but wait until any and all facts are in before you rush to judgement
Showe Themansupreme , again, ignoring the facts of Martins background (suspensions, drugs, altercation with a bus driver, twitter rants, etc. You just showed your true colors, AGAIN, with your biased information supporting the one YOU support, rather than providing information on BOTH parties, THEN supporting the race baiter Sharpton for his involvement. Don't give me this crap about him only getting involved because nothing was being done. Would he, the Panthers and the NAACP have been rallying if the victim was white? Give it a rest…the ONLY people making this case a race issue are Sharpton, the media and Obama with his comments.
Showe Themansupreme when have i defended the indefensible- i said i want the truth. if i said the president was wrong, i still believe he fanned the flames on purpose to rally his base since this is an eleection year- thats not the kind of leader we need now
Brent Swearingen, if the victim was white, you know without a doubt the perpetrator would have been arrested, especially if he was black. The NAACP and the Panthers exist only in response to the police and authorities ignoring the deaths and lynchings of black folks in times past. They only exist to give voice to those being victimized, learn the history of the United States. If the authorities cannot bother to investigate the death of a black person then the masses who are tired of being victimized will cry out for an entity to be created for the purpose of protection. The victim's background is immaterial. What does his suspension have to do with the fact that he was an unarmed kid being followed and then murdered? The only information you have is that the kid confronted and attacked Zimmerman, now how do you know that? These disputed facts and the veracity of them are only for a Judge and jury to decide. Police arrest people on suspicion of crimes all the time. Its not the police’s job to determine whether his claim of self defense meets the definition under Florida’s criminal code annotated.
Showe Themansupreme this is not the past- this is now,and i don't know without a doubt that the perpatrator would have been arrested if he was black, and neither do you, so put up your big wide brush. time and time again, you have said your quest was for the truth, yet in almost every post, you betray your true feelings,. you want vengeanance and justification for things past. this has nothing to do with things past, so quit changing your argument. are you after truth, or do you just want the guy killed so can fell you struck a blow?
Showe Themansupreme , I know more about the history of this country than you'll ever know. But you keep using the victim card like the rest of your buddies. The only one's being victimized are the hard working, tax paying Americans that have to deal with your entitlement bullshit…period.
Showe Themansupreme – no, but the truth should not be hidden just to promote a story.
- following someone: legal
- carrying a firearm: legal
- attacking someone for following you: illegal
- shooting someone that attacks you: legal
IF IF IF Treyvon attacked him, he was right to defend himself. Deal with it.
James Arthur Scott I tip my hat to you sir.
Showe Themansupreme What Ken Feldman was saying was the pictures being used to BRAND AN IMAGE of this young man incorrectly did so.. they were 3 years old. Gold teeth and tattoos don't necessarily make him a bad person, nor do they mean he deserved to die. But you answer the question for us, why DID they use a three year old picture. It wasn't the only one they had, it was the one they chose… not the one on his Twitter feed where he was making gang signs… but the one that portrayed him as a sweet innocent little tyke… it was deceptive, and it was wrong. This question is not about whether he deserved to die… it was about the deceptive nature of our mainstream media, and yes, Al Sharpton, by inflaming and race baiting this issue… Sir, go listen to the entire 911 call… I'm sure you probably haven't… it paints a far different picture than the mainstream media has, so much so that NBC has apologized for using their "edited" version of the 911 call… sir, racism falls on both sides of this issue, not just one. The problem is that many people of color don't like it when whites call them out on it. Don't be a racist sir, and you won't be called one.
Jim McCandless, I am simply contrasting why these organizations exist. The same things and circumstances that caused them to be born is happening again in this case. I don't care what either person's race is and I am not looking for vengeance, what's done is done. A kid is dead and a man walks free. The original question was "Why isn't the media showing updated pictures of the kid with tattoos and gold teeth"? my response is, does that give a pass and credence to the fact that the kid was unarmed and does that mean tattoos and gold teeth warrant and justify death? Absolutely not. The only people that have brought race into the conversation has been the multitude of people claiming that I am only seeking justice because of a black victim. What does the victim’s race have to do with the fact that a man will not face a jury for homicide? The fact that he killed the kid is not in dispute, the only thing in dispute is why.
Yup. It's all Yellow journalism 101 right out of the W.R. Hearst playbook.
Has anyone heard of a "white Hispanic" prior to the Trayvon case? Just curious.

Showe Themansupreme Been using a LOT of food stamps haven't you, BOY?
Page Cole, how exactly have I been racist? The pictures have been provided by the victim's family. How do we know that the media has access to any updated pictures? Whatever the current condition of the victim or his twitter feed is does not justify the defense of his murderer and the justification of his murder. So research my posts here today and then feel free to call me out on my alleged racism.
Charles Halliburton that is disgusting sir. No one benefits from that kind of despicable language. YOU are a racist.
Charles Halliburton that is disgusting sir. No one benefits from that kind of despicable language. YOU are a racist.
Showe Themansupreme so it is ok to talk about zimmermans past? ladies and gentlemen, he just made my point about himself
Jim McCandless like i said, the police report is what zimmerman said. of course zimmerman's statement would favor him. just like OJ's statements favored OJ, doesn't mean he didn't do it. you are stating that i want some big black over white victory but that is bullshit. i want a man who committed murder to be locked up. i don't care if he's white hispanic, hispanic, arab, or whatever. but apparantly you know me better than myself and you say that i do. is there a racial element? yes. zimmerman profiled an african american because of a string of robberies that have occured. can i do anything legally about that? no. does it bother me, yes. if there was just a profiling that didn't lead to death, or any sort of injury or harm would this matter to me? no. you can't convince an individual to not be racist. now when a HUMAN BEING is unjustly murdered by another HUMAN BEING, then i have a problem. forget this black vs. white hispanic talk, cause all that matters is that someone was murdered. if you choose to take zimmerman's word and really believe that story, fine. i won't believe that for a second cause no matter what color the people are, the story does not make sense.
Showe Themansupreme you question why his tattoos matter, and yet you cite zimmermans record without batting an eye- you can't hve it both ways
Freeman Liddell wow, you have complete impunity? how and when was this granted?
Showe Themansupreme
Well wel well, Where was good ole Al when that 13 year old white kid from Kansas City was doused in gas and lit on fire by two 16 year old teens? Where is AL everytime theres a black on black crime. He only seems to rear his ugly head when whenever theres an incident involving a white on black incident. Evidently, its funny how racism keeps Al and his brother from another mother Jesse Jackass, employed and in the limelight.
interesting thread……
Bulls' eyes! The truth always come to the surface.
Add a comment…
"My feelings are not hurt" whined Robert Jeffress.
Don't you have a rally to attend?
yep, its a Brent Swearingen is an idiot rally, what time will you be there?

Shouldn't you be selling crack to your own people?
Showe Themansupreme LOL…. LMAO…. oh stop… I can't breath…LOL
Stephanie Mazac, but you're my best customer…
Stephanie Mazac, but you're my best customer…
Showe Themansupreme Like I said before… LOL
Stephanie Mazac did you know that people who support losers and lost causes like the confederacy are by definition losers? enjoy your crack…
Showe Themansupreme What? i'm not allowed to show my white pride? And by the way, you have run out of anything worthy of reading… you lose.
Showe Themansupreme , yes I agree with the double BS (and I don't mean Bachelors of Science).
Stephanie Mazac, by all means take pride in being a loser
Showe Themansupreme , yes, being proud of your color (if black) is just showing pride in who you are…but being proud of being white is racist, right? Always the double standard. Just like the Source, or IMAGE awards, or BET. Perfectly okay to have those award shows and television station solely for the black community, but have WET, or an award show specifically for the white people, and you'd have Sharpton and the NAACP and ACLU out rallying against it. And you can't use the Country Music Awards as a white award show anymore now that Darius Rucker is Country….hehe
Actually I should've said "my southern pride" my bad.
Brent Swearingen, did you know that there is absolutely nothing stopping you from creating white entertainment TV or any other white award shows? besides when did I say having white pride is racist? I seem to recall saying having pride in a losing flag means you have pride in being a loser, learn to read…
Showe Themansupreme , the point was that it would never happen because of an outcry from the race baiters. I myself couldn't care less either way about it, but the point is the double standard and hypocrisy that comes from the left, and people like Sharpton and Jackson. No matter what the truth is, they will use it for their own personal agendas and platforms as they are doing now. You continue to back the Martin side without having the facts of the case. The TRUE facts of the case. Whether or not Zimmerman should have been patrolling the area as neighborhood watch does not deflect from the fact that he was acting in self defense based on Martins actions. My opinion, they were both wrong and could have both done things differently, but this will be tragic because it has been turned into a circus by the media, the race baiters, and the Martins themselves for trying to profit from this.
Showe Themansupreme , and BTW, I'm not on anyone's side in this…except the truth, whatever that may be.
Invite, don't invite, the best way to let the president know how we feel is to vote him out of office in November.
why should the president invite a bunch of racists rednecks, christian conservatives to the white house?
James Jackson Spoken like a true racist…. priceless
James Jackson Your mirror shows who the racist really is…
James Jackson Scum knows scum don't they!!!
Well James, I guess a racist, ignorant, evangelical black man will do in their place.
Stephanie Mazac , you know there's no such thing as racism from the black people. LOL
Yes, Jesse…Oops, I mean, James, we wouldn't want the intelligent people in the WH right now, upsetting the moron collaboration.
I'm with you, Ed Temple!
James Jackson, So he invites a racist Afican American?
James Jackson You are the RACIST, bbg!
@James Jackson And Al Sharpton isn't a true racist? lol? Freddy's fashion mart ring a bell? Jus how they aching for George Zimmerman be white, then even after Dad said No, he's Hispanic Al made up term "White Hispanic" yeah he's not a racist.
James Jackson –This is the typical way our goverment and its allies thinks of evangelical Christians. They are the real racists, despisers of Christianity and all it stands for.
Brent Swearingen lol i'm sorry… you are correct. What was i thinking
Brent Swearingen lol i'm sorry… you are correct. What was i thinking
I find it humorous how racists display their racism by placing another race into the "racism" category. James, it is people like YOU that promote racism.

James Jackson – You're right – the non-American should only invite stupid racist worthless black rifraff like himself. Hey, it's Easter in Muslim land.
James Jackson – You're right – the non-American should only invite stupid racist worthless black rifraff like himself. Hey, it's Easter in Muslim land.
James Jackson he already invited that when he invited sharpton
James Jackson your right James, why invite racists of any color. DOH Sharpton is one of the biggest.
James Jackson It's 99% of Redneck Blacks like you, and your friends Al Sharpton, Jessie Jackson and your presdent,that keep all this racist crap front and center…why don't you guys get over it and try to get along…but after reading more of your post …your just a Idot,but hey (to use your term, at least your a black idot)…like you guys want to always play the victim.
James Jackson Is a rediculous thought. Really I don't know why people should even care about who he prays with. Shouldn't Easter be about Christ & not the president. As an atheist I don't understand why this even made the news.
James Jackson: My mixed race family attends a Baptist church which is associated with the Southern Baptist Conference… I will also add that our Sr. Pastor is a black along with half of our congregation. You sir are the reason why racism is still alive and keeps people like Al Sharpton rich. Educate yourself and maybe you will no longer be a "useful idiot" to those that would exploit you because of your skin color.
James Jackson here we go again. you profess to know all conservatives? or have you just been hanging around the liberal water cooler. please verify your groundless calims or get off thei thread! tyvm
James Jackson And you are showing who the TRUE racists' are.
James Jackson Shouldn't white racists have the same standing as black racists? Sharpton is a racist. Obama is showing WHICH color racist he prefers.
James Jackson – it is obvious you are the reall racist. Did your parents teach you to hate white people? Then they were racist. Anyone that votes for a man based on the color of his skin and not the content of his character is a racist. Let me rephrase that – anyone that voted for Obama just because he was black is a racist. You can't have it both ways.
James Jackson, it's not a matter of believing with or agreeing with the beliefs of Southern Baptists… it's a matter of intelligence, knowing that they represent a large block of voters. It's also a matter of class; the office of the President should be one of dignity and respect, that rises above political perspectives during events like this. Instead of that, whoever was in charge of inviting guests to this event took the low road of "no class", excluding the leadership of the largest evangelical group in the country. This action may not show prejudice… but it's either that, or stupidity.
James Jackson Because he invited the Racist Al Sharpton, but again Obama shows his true colors(no pun intended), Class warfare and racial warfare Obama is dividing this country, time for him to go.
James Jackson Perhaps because he is President to all of America and many many of these people actually voted for him the first time. He won by a large margin and if only blacks vote this time he will lose! But if that's how it is that's how it will be but not smart for President whose birth certificate does state white as his race and who could really advocate that we are all just Americans and not only black or white, brown or yellow.

James Jackson
Negro please. Your sounding like your favorite race baiting racist un-reverends Jesse Jackass and Al Not Too Sharp. Your drinking way too much of their fool-aid son. Think outside the skin.
James – Is Fred Luter a "racist redneck?"
Because he works for them, as well.
well now all the race baiters can hang together.
Now Barry has his "frontman" for all the hate coming our way, and he can hide his little community organizing A$$ in the shadows!
My mother always said birds of a feather flock together.
Your mother was a wise woman.

James Arthur Scott gay ass picture
Showe Themansupreme , that's funny coming from someone that looks like he's 400Lbs, sitting on his sofa after eating a box of Ding Dongs…
When are racist going to quit using the presiden & religion to spread hatred & division among fellow citizens. I am sure getting tire of people working so hard to divide our country. I don't care what color POTUS is or what US church/religion he choose to practice come sundays. It is he politics I don't for, socialism.
Brent Swearingen, how exactly is that funny? you make no sense
Showe Themansupreme , um, I think it's pretty clear and makes perfect sense. You made a pretty disparaging remark about James picture, yet you have absolutely no room to talk. And I mean NO ROOM. You take up that entire picture with just your face…
Showe Themansupreme That's okay, bbg, he won't be in the White House come January!
Charles Halliburton, you hope, besides that up for the public to decide. At this point your only hope is Mitt, good luck with that…

Brent Swearingen, anybody could defeat Obama. Anybody could defeat anyone. The real question is will he? No. The states that will vote GOP will vote GOP. The states that vote Democrat will vote Democrat. The President has solid leads in all of the battleground states especially Florida, Virginia, Michigan and Ohio. That looks like a path to victory to me. The GOP candidate has serious problems with working class, middle class, women and Hispanics that resides in those states, the only way that they will turn against the President is if the economy crashes again or if God Almighty is the VP choice. Here’s to your GOP hope (hopeless)

Ken Denbow affirmative action doesn’t exist, its an oxymoronic myth just like white supremacy
Brent Swearingen Its only baseless if your boy is losing right? Feel free to offer proof that my analysis is incorrect.
Charles Halliburton I'm sure glad you pointed out that I was a "lard ass", I sure wouldn't have known otherwise. Now that your usefulness has elapsed go ahead and kill yourself…
Showe Themansupreme , the polls are skewed because of who is organizing these 'polls', and who is being polled. You can talk all you want about your polls, but the fact of the matter is that people are disgusted with your President, including many that voted for him. His ratings are in the toilet and only getting worse. We can revisit this in November…when you will have an excuse as to why he lost.
Dick Risch
Im sure Saint Barry the Bailer would love white Christians if they share his beliefs and philosophy right down to having a hammer and sickle over their hearts.
Showe Themansupreme
Its good to dream son, so keep on dreaming. It would be interesting to hear what you think of your fellow brothers and sisters who have opened their eyes to the truth of what this inexperianced empty suit represents, and how far worse the economy has become under his watch among other things. Jimmy Carter can slip peacefully into eternity now that history has shown mercy to him in declaring Obama the worst president ever. His screw ups and failures are a reflection of the ignorance of people who voted for color and the meaningless mantra of hope and change.
Dborah Jameson POTUS! POS more readily describes him!
obama and sharpton are of the same mentality. one can expound it the other cannot due to wanting to be re-elected.
Amazing, Mr Al Sharpton has for years refused to say what theological school he attended or exactly how he was ordained. and no one has been able to verify. It seems his title just sort of appeared one clear morning. Amazing manifistations for an old hate speech race baiter is it not. If I'm not mistaken Jessie Jackson has a simular crenditial credibility gap. Just suddenly poof I'm an ordained theological minister so you can just call me reverend.
aren't all blacks a reverend of some kind or other…lol
Do you guys not realize that for a few thousand dollars you can order on line a certificate of ordained ministries deploma. This has been going on for years if not decades.

Got to have a title, right.?Guess they thought they could hide their race baiting behind a "reverend" and nobody would notice?! Between the 2 of them, they have set race relations back centuries! Learned all I needed to know about Jesse the day he skidaddled from that Memphis hotel! And somebody please refresh my memory-isn't "the rev sharpless" like 0 for 10 in being on the right side of any "cause" he blew up? Just sayin…….
Michael James Gudat
Al is an opportunistic, media whore jackass, and for him to carry the title of "Reverend" is an insult to true reverends everywhere, and I would boldly say that the bastard is the right hand of the devil. This mans antics doesnt help race relations one bit.
AFTER THE TAWANA BRAWLEY SCANDAL, HE SHOULD HAVE BEEN STRIPPED OF HIS "REVERENED", TAX EXEMPT STATUS!
From the looks of things OREO has already begun packing. He's finished. He has pi ssed down everyone's back.
You're correct, he sees the handwriting on the wall. He's one & done and he knows it!
Charles Halliburton I PRAY you are right.
Charles Halliburton ARE YOU THE HALLIBURTON WHO STOLE $70 bILLION FROM US TAXPAYERS DURING BUSH/CHENEY YEARS?
James Jackson I'm one of them, sport, but we didn't steal anything! However, the people who are perpetually(for generations)on food stamps, gov. housing, free emergency room trips, welfare, etc. do in fact steal from us all on a monthly basis! Would you be one of those? Yep, I thought so!!
James Jackson Hahahhaha I told you man, Obama is counting on you to just stay dumb!! You are doing a good job just keep it up til November ok?
Al Sharpton? Reverand? where was he ordained? This puts a fork in it as far as credibility goes for the president. Sharpton wouldn't be welcome in my cat's litter box. There's nothing christian about the "Rev" al sharpton. obama, you have made it impossible for anyone to respect you with this one.
As i recall, Bush invited sean Hannity, the KK Klamsman to the white house.
James Jackson , wow, another black person supporting Obama. Surprise. I wonder when you'll actually start acknowledging him for what he HASN'T done, than for your support for him because he shares your skin color. At least if you're going to try and slander someone, make sure you have the proper grammar. It's Klansman, not Klamsman.
James Jackson President Bush invited quality people, not the scum that ovomit associates with.
James Jackson Sean Hannity rocks, you are so stupid… "don't call us the "N" work because it's not fair but we can call white people all sorts of stuff. " You are a disgusting racist pig.
James Jackson Sean Hannity rocks, you are so stupid… "don't call us the "N" work because it's not fair but we can call white people all sorts of stuff. " You are a disgusting racist pig.
James Jackson You show your ignorance with every post, Please show your exact proof of how Hannity is so racist. How many millions have you raised for wounded warriors and their families. Of all nationalities? How about zero. Stop sucking the kool-aid and educate yourself. By the way also black and a Muslim and a Vet. You come off like a idiot.
Stephanie Mazac , They can call us cracker and redneck all they want, but call them a nigger and it's all over. Bottom line, every race has it's trash…whites, blacks, mexicans, ect…but this race baiting sh*t is getting ridiculous. The only racists can be white apparently…even as the New Black Panther Militia orders the killing of Zimmerman. Priceless…
James Jackson,,,,, you recall wrong, Hannity does not belong to the KKK – the KKK does not exist anymore except in your head.

James Jackson Hannity doesn't try and deepen the divide between the various races in americah like Sharpton does. I never see him at any incident when one race kills someone of the same race or when another race kills a white person. He makes a living by keeping americans seperated.

James Jackson Sean Hannity has your number, BOY!
James Jackson We know he invited senator kkk byrd to the WH many times. You are a racists, aren't you? Seems you need to be schooled in some civil rights history. KKK brought to us by the dems, jim crow brought to us by the dems, Civil Rights Act passing brought to YOU by the Republicans. Further schooling-al gore's daddy filibustered against the Civil Rights Bill, jfk voted against it when first brought up in 1954. Want more or do you prefer to stay ignorant?
James Jackson i cannot recall President Bush inviting Senator Robert Byrd Democrat, Grand Master of the KKK to the WH. You're a blinded brother with no knowledge of your own history. Keep following the lies of Jackson and Sharpton who did'nt remind you that Dr King marched in the South against Governors who by the way were ALL Democrats. GET educated brother!
James Jackson, call Sean Hannity KKK? That truly shows you are a racist… you've become the very thing that your grandparents probably fought and worked hard against… I'm sure they would be embarrassed, appalled and ashamed of you…
James Jackson you know every time you open your mouth you switch feet,
James Jackson you know every time you open your mouth you switch feet,

Jim Andreu
Just by Obama being his socialist self makes it hard for anyone to respect him.
James Jackson
Your an idiot. KKK clansmen huh. If you think things are sooooo bad here as far as race, then I challenge you to go live in Africa where true vicious and vile hate is killing blacks over there by the hundreds of thousands, and where "S-L-A-V-E-R-Y" still exist. Yes, shocking huh? Overthere, you can make legitimate complaints about hatefulness and prejudice that wears the same color as you.
James Jackson check your facts bro, Sean Hannity is and never has been affiliated with the KKK. That's a real stroke of genius to throw out a race card when you just have a problem with a "conservative". Pray tell, show one area in society where "liberal" government intervention is working in our country. Everything the federal government puts their hands in is a miserable failure. Oh and by the way; the Bush bashing is not only getting old (he's been gone for 3 and a half years now), it shows just how lame this administration is that they continue to blame someone who has nothing to do with the mess they are creating. This president, wow that's hard to put to obama, is an absolute F-!
Stephanie Mazac James is not a racist pig; come on now. He just has a different view which while it's way off the mark according to some of us he is still one of us. We are all in this great ship together and the goal needs to be let's keep it not just floating but sailing. Regardless of obama, bush, romney, or whoever winds up at the helm, we have to, indeed have no other option but to pray and work at getting things going in the right direction. That starts right where you are even if it's at the kitchen table.
Bigots best example is Al Sharpton.
Ever heard of a bigot named Sean Hannity?
James Jackson , tell us whose the one running around the country starting rallys and media frenzy's every time a person of color is killed or attacked? Certainly isn't Hannity, or anyone else NOT named Al Sharpton or Jesse Jackson.
James Jackson What's up with you and Sean Hannity? Did he not return a txt you sent? I love Sean, Rush, Glenn Beck, O'reily, Palin etc. They are the only ones making any sense (Glenn Beck when he's not on his soapbox) I bet Hannity doesn't care one bit about you hating on him.
James Jackson is a racist. Ever notice how when nit-wits cannot respond with intelligence they respond with the name calling and race baiting? I think you are desperate for someone to think you count – - you dont.
James Jackson and your evidence is…?

James Jackson – It must be tough always having to make excuses for "your" race's first half President. I would have thought and hoped you all could do better than this America-hater, oh well. Next chance not for 50 years.

James Jackson please supply any evidence of your statement. when you just take what you have heard and supply no facts, really makes you look dumb dude
James Jackson never saw Sean running around insighting near riots sir. Nothing like Sharpton and or J Jackson
James Jackson First of all I'm Black and unlike the majority of you dumb ass Blacks that voted for this Racist Dog Squeeze, and after almost four years later you are still stupid enough to still support him, show who the real racist are in this country. You set on your blacks asses and let the Lame Stream media and corrupt policiians annoint Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson as your representatives for decades and they haven't done shit for your dumb asses, Not the NAACP, not the Congressional Black Caucus, Farrahkan, New Black Panthers, and not even your Messian O'dumbass. You come on here calling Sean Hannity a racist, your dead wrong I listen to him, Rush, Mark Levin, Laura Ingram any Conservative talk show I can find and everyone of them don't have a racist bone in there body, just like the majority of Conservative people. You never listen to Sean Hannity in your life, you've been programmed just like the rest of the black people that every Republican or Conserivative is a racist. You need to get your dumb ass off that Plantation and start thinking for your self. You are still a slave with a slave mentality and you have know one to blame but yourself and your so called black leaders. I don't blame white people for the way they feel and think about us now because of people like you that still livin in the past and holding grudges and being manipulated by people that don't give a damn about you. You don't have a clue of the magnitude of a setback you dumbasses let this Muslim cost you. I would never hire you dumb f#@$s. Also, stay your dumbass off of all blogs you are just embarrassing son. Jus damn!!!
Brent Swearingen but hannity is defending Zimmerman, i wonder why!!!!
James Jackson , no, but we've heard of an ignorant moron named James Jackson…
James, you're defending Martin…I wonder why. You're nothing but the racist bigot you charge everyone else with being. You even have it on your FB page…and I quote "Most Republicans are racist, period." Look in the mirror and stop blaming everyone else, oh I'm sorry, the white republicans, for your problems in life. You have no clue of your own background, as you were even called out by a fellow person of color…yet I see you failed to respond to him. Continue living in your victim and entitlement world, because the white man is keeping you down. You're pathetic…
I don't know why this would be surprising to anyone. Mr. Obama has consistently shown his disdain for mainstream Christianity. In the long run, its probably better that he not invite people that he is personally opposed to. That way he doesn't have to make a long-winded speech filled with lies about how he respects all faiths. He clearly doesn't.
And mainstream Christianity should remember all of this in November.
And mainstream Christianity should remember all of this in November.
Gary Gruda I'm confident we, mainstream Christianity, will do just as you suggest. If we don't the end of our once great country is in sight!
it is his party he can invite who he wants.
It is not his party? it's the party paid for by the TAXES of all americans. That loser in office is a complete moron. We'll never get that smell out of the whitehouse now.
What do care how it smells like. You will never see the inside of it
Don't be surprised. Ever heard of "birds of a feather?" Everyday, in every way, our non-leaders demonstrates why he, and his ilk, need to be replaced in November.
You have to remember Al Sharpton is the type guy Obamee is use to hanging out with. The
Im sure he didn't want to go anyway. I like Lands comment. Birds of a feather flock together. Hahaha
I wouldn't be offended either; He has shown his disdain for real Chrisitanity and I wouldn't want to spend the day with him any how. Hopefully, November wil change all that.
you dont sound racist at all lol, is the issue that he didnt invite a member of that church or the fact that he didnt invite a WHITE REVERAND who's views he doesnt agree with to the prayer meeting LMAOOOOOOO…..
Freeman Liddell , what part of that was racist? I wouldn't want to spend the day with him either…not because he's black, because he's a moron that is destroying this country and everything it was founded on.

We need to recognize that Obama is a reflection of a large percentage of Americans. America has forgotten who, how and why this country was founded. Ordinary, god fearing men that adhered to biblical principles and practices. Pray for our President and Pray for our Country.
It is truly unfortunate anyone could think Obama is a reflection of a large percentage of Americans. We, true Americans (Who do not reflect Obama) have not forgotten how or why this country was founded. We are extraordinary, God fearing people who daily seek to adhere to biblical principles and practices. I cannot see Obama in an honorable light. Because he is our president…I daily pray for our Country.
Dick Rische, what difference does it make if it is whites that wake up why not everyone? And what difference does it make if BO is half black? There are dummies in every shape and color. My problem was in being fair until all the facts are known and not jumping to any conclusions, in other words don't be prejudiced. Your comments had a race-based tone which makes things worse. I have seen cases like this go either way. That being said this Zimmerman guy is not given a fair shake so far, at least until we know if he did something wrong or not. Right now nobody knows so let's not take either side and certainly we don't need to fan racial flames. God Bless!
dad, please get off mom's facebook account lol
Easter should not be marked by a partisan divide. The 2008 Obama rhetoric about bringing Americans together has been proven over and again to be hogwash. Whether I voted for him or not; whether any So. Baptisits voted for him or not, he is the President of the USA – currently my President – and it is simply ridiculous that, given the position of those that were included, the leadership of the largest Protestant denomination was excluded from this event. For his extreme belief system and his actions which flow from it, it is time for Obama to be replaced. Thank goodness it is a presdential election year.
I agree that he should be replaced but I assure you he is NOT my president.
How can OBAMA bring people together when racist people don't wan't to be together.??????
James, you're the racist one, you tell us? You call Hannity a member of the KKK, solely because he is a conservative that exposes the bias of the liberal media and you call me Jethro. Exactly who is the racist one here? You're a typical angry black man using the slavery card as your excuse in 2012. You deserve reparations for something that didn't even happen to you, but it's okay because you're still black, right? It's okay for you to be racist, but it's not okay to have it thrown back in your face…
Brent Swearingen Who kidnapped Africans and FORCED them into AMerica, your people did. Blacks are the only people who didn't wanna come here.
My people? Moron. If you and your 'black people' don't like it here, you're free to leave…
James, you're the perfect example of why race issues still exist and why racial issues will continue to exist. BTW, I thoroughly enjoy my Aunt Jemima waffles and Uncle Ben rice…
Charles Halliburton I bet Netanyahu IS your President.
Obama is a racist as we all know… why are we surprised?
a ssholes like you are the true RACISTS, ASSHOLES.
It's quickly becoming the " Bl@ckhouse "!
If REV. AL is " a man of the cloth " , so am I and so is my cat!
you're cats a pussy!
Is your cat available for weddings?
And your cat's hairball too! : )
Deborah Turner still mad you lost in 2008.
James Jackson, No darling young man… I am not angry Obama won in 2008. I had no idea then, of his socialist agenda which is so toxic to my Dear Black brothers and sisters.
Who cares, I am not even religious, but isn't Easter about Christ instead of Obama or Sharpton. Why does the special interest groups have the needs to destroy our whole culture to feed Obama's ego.
There is nothing reverend about al sharpton, any more than jesse jackson. They both adopted the religious cloak years ago to hide behind and give them a forum to spew their hatred and racism. obama invited him because as another commentator said "birds of a feather, flock together" Time to wake up folks and rally behind the Republicans.
you mean, rally behind racists like sean hannity and hate radio?
James, the only hate radio I know of is the one that plays Kanye. You want racist, try your boy here (http://i.cdn.turner.com/dr/teg/tsg/release/sites/default/files/assets/zimmermanshirt.jpg)

Is rev wright coming too?
This is a LIE, he met with the head of the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary TODAY! I even read about it on the SBTS presidents facebook and twitter page.
For all his pontificating on how his administration would be open, above board, and honest, Obama has one of the most secretive, obstructive and dishonest administrations since Nixon. He is just typical of Chicago politics on a national level.
Rick, don't think he would have ever been elected if he had told us all his real feelings! Better to get in there and THEN do his "dirty work"! The amazing thing to me is that his actions are openly blatant now, and he is giving us all the finger!
**** Yes. Birds of a Feather Flock Together. ****
There is only one reason you invite Al Sharpton to anything, and that is to pander to the black community. That's it. That is the extent of his usefullness.
Al Sharpton contributes nothing whatsoever to he betterment of America, and at the end of the day hinders African-Americans by sucking every drop of credibility out of anything he attaches his name to.
Al Sharpton is about Al Sharpton, and that is all. He's nothing but a high-profile carnival barker and media whore, and he should wear clown shoes and a big red nose any time he speaks in public so everyone knows exactly the context in which to take the things he says.
So….why would president Obama need an Al Sharpton to connect to a voting block that supported him nearly 100% in 2008?
Maybe he's not as confident about November 6th as he lets on.

Thank-you…well and intelligently said!
Deborah Turner….Thank you right back!
You voted for Barry the Dud to prove you weren't racist…this time vote against him to prove you're not STUPID.
why would any christian accept an invitation to obama's white house, especially for a so-called religious event. it would be like those obedient russian orthodox priests who stood beside the politburo at state events.
Please sign this petition for MSNBC to fire Al Sharpton. Please pass it on.

Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson neither deserve the title of Reverand. Their actions and words in no way show Christian concern..They only know hope to inflame already tense situations by pitting blacks and whites against each other. They are so busy spouting nonsense that neither has any time for a Christian Ministry…..President Obama was completely wrong inviting an instigator like Al Sharpton to a gathering for fellowship and prayer.
It seems far too many blacks of the new generations have no knowledge of the past as they seem to behave EXACTLY like the Jim Crow race baiters of the deep South whom they profess to abhor!
maybe he is not concerned about the Christian vote as long as he holds the black vote? Or…Maybe he is still playing the race card. After all, the only reason to invite Sharpton is to incite a lynching.

Does anyone want to venture a guess as to why this is?

We al know that Obama is a black/muslim racist. Lets get him out in November.
……..if obamma had a son, he would look like Kesler Dufrene.
Sharpton is no angel, but for a Southern Baptist minister to attack him for "race-baiting" is pretty rich. The whole denomination was started because of their position on slavery. It only took them 150 years to issue an apology.
Erik Jensen have you ever been in a southern Baptist church?,,,,,,,,,, I didnt think so. If you know not what you speak,,,,, dont speak.
James Arthur Scott, give me a break. I know how to read history books. The denomination started in 1845 to allow slaveholders to hold office over the objections of northerners. The denomination issued an apology in 1995. I'm not saying every or even most are racist, but that is the history of the church.
Erik Jensen you werent alive then and neither was I. It was as big a mistake for them to apologise in 1995 for something that happened 150 years ago as it is for whites to apologise today. I never owned any slaves and no apology is forthcoming. For Obama, it is conquer and divide as usual, the slights and slurs, the inuendo, and anything he can do for whatever imaginary demon he has in his head. He is just a hatefull angry man.
James Arthur Scott , how about these quotes from South Baptist Jerry Fallwell?
"I do question the sincerity and nonviolent intentions of some civil rights leaders such as Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr."
"If Chief Justice Warren and his associates had known God's word and had desired to do the Lord's will, I am quite confident that the 1954 decision would never had been made. The facilities should be separate. When God has drawn a line of distinction, we should not attempt to cross that line."
"The true Negro does not want integration…. He realizes his potential is far better among his own race." Integration "will destroy our race eventually. In one northern city," he warned, "a pastor friend of mine tells me that a couple of opposite race live next door to his church as man and wife."
I think the apology was a good idea. It doesn't mean every individual in that denomination did something bad. It means that the institution and some of the individuals were on the wrong side.
I have never seen Jackson or Sharpton working food banks gathering clothes for the needy, for them it is all about getting on camera and stirring up trouble. That's not a Rev in my book.
I'm amazed he didn't invite the grand mufti and a couple of ayatollas.
I would consider it a compliment "not to be invited". To me personally, that would mean they saw me on a different path than their own and believe me – that's where I want to be.

of course the Office of faith-based and neighborhood initiatives didn't reply, because she is a muslim herself. This idiot president surrounds himself with muslims and racist blacks. What do you expect, America, and is this what we want for another 4 years?
