Obama Heads to Church – Again

President Obama and his family headed out to church this morning for the third time in a month, the latest sign that the president may be using religion to boost his image as the campaign heats up. Nah, we’re sure this is all about seeking spiritual enlightenment – Barack is making himself available in case God decides to seek it.

  • Yes he went to church, and when they passed around the collection plate, he cleaned it off due to the belief that he was more qualified to "Spread the Wealth"

  • This guy on Fox said that he went to church about 32 times (or so) in the past three years... I mean there are 52 weeks a year right? so obviously he hasn't been going every week. However, the same dude mentioned that he has had over 100 (?) rounds of golf in the same time frame and so many fundraisers and so many vacays. Now... I believe that if he doesn't go to church frequently for whatever reason it is all good, but going frequently now in order to appear to be a good Christian boy right before the electionis pathetic.

  • just remember...he's been listening and attending the "church" with a "pastor" who screamed " not god bless america,but god damn america" just remember that,and don't forget it.

  • Obama: god, I'm here, do you need any help?
    God: obumbles, if I asked you for help, I might as well shoot myself!
    Obama: god, why do you talk like that? I'm the smartest President ever!
    God: dude, you're lucky I don't strike you down right now!
    Obama: But I'm the chosen one!
    God: You're a legend in your own mind, you communist bastard!

  • Remember this, & it's from Andrew Wilkow. If a conservative is religious & open about it, they are religious fundimentalists. If it's a liberal, they are spirital.

    Despite what he said, Obama DID LISTEN to his friend, the racist Rev.Wright. I also believe his being at Trinity United was Michelle's idea as much or even more so, & Barack was'nt going against Michelle. End of the day, if he's in church, it's political. If he's with Rev.Wright or someone preaching Black Liberation Theology, he means it.
