Executive Action

BHO says that he was unaware of his preacher's message. Is that so?

Obama's Church: Cauldron of Division

Jim Davis Thursday, Aug. 9, 2007

Presidential candidate Barack Obama preaches on the campaign trail that America needs a new consensus based on faith and bipartisanship, yet he continues to attend a controversial Chicago church whose pastor routinely refers to "white arrogance" and "the United States of White America."

In fact, Obama was in attendance at the church when these statements were made on July 22.

Obama has spoken and written of his special relationship with that pastor, the Rev. Jeremiah A. Wright Jr.

The connection between the two goes back to Obama's days as a young community organizer in Chicago's South Side when he first met the charismatic Wright. Obama credited Wright with converting him, then a religious skeptic, to Christianity.
August 2007. It is now March 2008. That is seven months since the article came out and 8 months since the speech. And he is just now getting around to do something about it?

Not exactly forceful executive action.
