I see that Pastor James David Manning is pulling his videos off the internet
I tried looking up the videos where he called Obama's father an "African in-heat" who went "whoring" after a "trashy white woman", but he's already pulled those videos from YouTube and Google.

However, I did manage to find a few bloggers who had the video on their sites, including this one:
http://www.huliq.com/54182/pastor-atlah-james-david-manning-insults-obama-his-congregation

Just wondering, has Hillary denounced this pastor yet? I know that he's not her full-time pastor, and he's not on any of her advisory committees, but he's still a big supporter of hers.

To me, this is MUCH more racist and offensive than anything Rev. Wright has said.

1. Is Hillary...
Edited on Thu Mar-20-08 04:06 PM by Noirceuil
a member of his church? Did she sit in the pews for 20 years while he spouted off conspiracy theories and hate speech? Did he marry her and Bill? Did he baptize Chelsea? Did she take Chelsea to that church every Sunday? Is the title of her book a quote from him? Is he like an uncle to her? Is he on her campaign committee?

I DIDN'T THINK SO!

4. Doesn't matter
He's a prominent supporter, and this is out in the media now. It isn't going away.

Any time you have a whack-job supporter who starts getting a lot of national attention like this, it's a good idea to distance yourself from that person.

11. God, that video is HORRIBLE ! How can the MSM portray that Wright is the ONLY black preacher
who's ever said anything controversial from the pulpit when this HORRIBLE TRASH is out there?? This is personal destruction.

10. Didn't Hillary go to the senate floor with a newspaper headline BUSH KNEW?
Can't the GOP machine make a video of Wright and add a video of Hillary talking about that headline and holding it up and achieve the exact same point?

Or would you like to pretend that never happened?

15. You mean reality like the math that Clinton has already lost?
You must be talking about some other, alternate reality.

28. or the reality that Hillary on the senate floor implied the exact same thing Wright did
Edited on Thu Mar-20-08 06:24 PM by blm
about 9-11? Remember the BUSH KNEW headline she held up in May 2002? It was her best moment in the senate, imo, but she retreated after the backlash. That pic is hard to find now, isn't it?

13. Conspiracy theories and hate speech?
LOL!

What are you doing here instead of listening to Rush or watching Fox?

Really. What an embarrassment.

8. Thanks
Are those "ads" that he shows early in the video really from Obama's early campaign? Somehow I doubt that, it looks like someone just took some Obama campaign ads and put some scantily clad women dancing in front of them.

6. What is your evidence (other than Rush Limbaugh's site, which
I found when googling this pastor's name and Clinton's) that this pastor is a Hillary Clinton supporter?

See this article, which suggests that he's not too fond of Bill Clinton:

http://cityroom.blogs.nytimes.com/2008/02/22/a-pastors-mission-to-destroy-harlem/

"Dr. Manning has made many enemies.

He has started recall campaigns against nearly every one of Harlem’s elected officials and criticized neighborhood acolytes like former President Bill Clinton, the Rev. Al Sharpton, and the Rev. Calvin O. Butts III, pastor of the Abyssinian Baptist Church, among others. He has also made unkind remarks about Senator Barack Obama.

Dr. Manning said he loves Harlem and its people, and is only offering himself as the sort of effective leader the community has lacked since the days of Adam Clayton Powell Jr. and Malcolm X. "

24. Did you listen to the tape?
I did for the first time. Wow, that is really some crazy shit.

But back to the evidence: he is telling his congregation that they are despicable vermin if they think of supporting Obama because it was Bill Clinton who supposedly poured some kind big money into the community for construction. He tells them the houses they live in are Bill Clinton's. He castigates them for turning their backs on Bill Clinton and "his wife." He, of course, said this much more colorfully than I care to do, but he said it.

16. To me, this has less to do with Hillary than it does the MSM refusing to air any preachers OTHER
than Jeremiah Wright who say horrible things in the PULPIT !

21. Well if they started airing all preachers that say ridiculous shit they wouldn't have time
to air anything else.

Wright's comments are really only relevant because of his association with Obama.

29. Who advised Hillary to hold up the Bush Knew headline on the senate floor, implying she agreed
with Pastor Wright and HIS implications, eh?

Gee - think the GOP has THAT moment on tape?
