Obama’s Pastor Problem

There’s another controversial quotation that’s been floating around, from a different black pastor whom Barack Obama has named as an inspiration and personal hero:

God didn’t call America to engage in a senseless, unjust war, and we are criminals in that war. We’ve committed more war crimes almost than any nation in the world, and I’m going to continue to say it. And we won’t stop it because of our pride and our arrogance as a nation. But God has a way of even putting nations in their place.

I’m sure the media will call any moment now, for Obama’s denouncement of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and the above statement he made at Ebenezer Baptist Church in Atlanta, on February 4, 1968.
