I read this article some time ago and thought it was a very interesting take on Obama's philosophy. It was written back in early January but in light of the recent hullabaloo about Trinity United and Reverend Wright's message, it's a good time to go back and revisit it. Called The Church of Obama: How He Recast the Language of Black Liberation Theology into a Winning Creed for Middle-of-the-Road White Voters, it gives us a lot of information and insight into what is preached week after week in this fine church. Needless to say, the doctrine of Reverend Wright and Trinity United is nothing at all like the racist church the right wing is attempting to paint. Hell, not even just right wing idiots, but plenty of Barack's Democratic foes are happy to impugn him and Reverend Wright just for cheap political points too.
