    Obama's Pastor: "God Damn America"

    God damn America? I couldn't believe this when I saw it. Barack Obama's pastor, for more than twenty years, accuses the US government of supplying Americans with drugs and preached the US deserved the 911 attacks, only days after, because of our foreign policies.

    I was willing to give Barack Obama's wife, Michelle, the benefit of doubt when she said that for the first time in her adult life she was, "proud to be an American". I thought it may have been a slip of the tongue or that she didn't really mean it.

    I thought it was a bit odd when Obama decided he would no longer wear a flag pin on his lapel, but gave him the benefit of doubt as well and accepted his explanation.

    I also found it odd that Obama didn't strongly denounce his endorsement from Louis Farrakhan and try to distance himself further from him.

    After watching the clip of Obama's pastor, it all started to make sense. If this is the type of rhetoric he has been subjecting himself to and believes in, I really hope Hillary wins the Democratic Party nomination. God Bless America!

    After finally denouncing his pastor for the racial divisive and anti-American comments, Obama also seems to have changed his mind about wearing a U.S. flag lapel pin. In just the last few day's he has been spotted, "wearing his patriotism on his sleeve". Maybe the next time he is in public and the National Anthem is played he will change his mind about disrespecting the Anthem and our country by placing his hand over his heart, like all patriotic Americans do.
