Ministers say they didn't endorse Obama

"Two black South Carolina ministers listed by Barack Obama's campaign as endorsing his White House bid say they did no such thing, and at least two others affirmed their support only after being contacted by campaign workers when questions were raised about their endorsements.

Earlier this month, Obama's campaign released a list of what it said were nearly 130 senior pastors in South Carolina endorsing his run for the Democratic nomination. But when contacted by The Associated Press, several ministers said they have yet to decide who will get their vote and were unclear how they ended up on the Illinois senator's list".

OOps!
Look like Obama is counting his ministers before they're hatched...

1. Same thing happened to Hillary earlier

It's hard to count support from ministers. They're not as firm on their committments as politicans.

4. Not firm on their support of candidates

unless they get a lot of public funding. Follow the money to the house of worship. Where is Jesus to throw them out?

2. Neo Cons

lie to us? DA.

Obama thinks he has the support of all ministers (especially Afro-Americans) because he supports Faith Based Charity (religious cronyism). Smart clergy know government support require they do what their government wants and ruins religious freedom. The public money buys their silence unlike Martin Luther King's struggle with government policy.

6. Is this supposed to be some kind of big deal?

7. Maybe Obama' organization

isn't so organized.

8. Who's the coward that's

stealth-kicking all the anti-Obama threads?

The post count shown in the index is higher than the actual number of posts.

What a cowardly way to debate. IF you want to kick a thread, kick it so we can see who you are!

9. Its been happening for weeks now

10. I wish the admins would fix that bug

and ban people who do it in GD or GDP

We've had fun in the lounge with it, but doing it here is just dishonest.

11. a couple days ago, there was an anti obama thread from dec 8th

Kind of reminds me of washingtonpost.com. They've had an article on the most viewed list about the pentagon having to possibly give 200,000 people a pink slip for Christmas. Its now three days after Christmas and the article is from Dec 5th. Its still on the most viewed list and has been there for over three weeks now.
