Barack and Michelle Obama Make Some Big Bucks!!

Yep, Barack Obama and Michelle Obama live like the big boys they so much despise publicly.

From the Associated Press today:

WASHINGTON — Barack and Michelle Obama's annual income jumped to nearly $1.7 million the year he joined the U.S. Senate, fueled by earnings from a best-selling book and her promotion at a Chicago hospital, according to tax returns the Obama campaign released Tuesday.
The Illinois Democrat, who previously released his 2006 tax forms, made public his returns for the tax years 2000 through 2006. His campaign said in a statement that the disclosure was designed to put pressure on his opponent, New York Sen. Hillary Clinton, who has yet to release her recent returns but has promised to do so before April 15.
Arizona Sen. John McCain will release his tax returns next month, campaign spokeswoman Jill Hazelbaker said.
The Obamas earned $1.67 million in 2005 and $991,296 in 2006, the returns show. Their income spiked thanks mainly to the sales of his two books, "Dreams from My Father," first published in 1995, and "The Audacity of Hope," a best seller in 2006.
In 2005, Michelle Obama, an administrator at the nonprofit University of Chicago Hospitals, was promoted to vice president of community affairs, and her income rose to $316,962 from $121,910. She also earned $96,000 on two boards of directors in 2005 and 2006, including $63,000 from TreeHouse Foods. She quit that post last year because TreeHouse supplies Wal-Mart, whose policies her husband has criticized.
From 2000 to 2004, the couple's income ranged from $207,647 to 275,000.
In 2006, the Obamas reported giving $60,307 to charity, or about 6 percent of their income. From 2000 to 2004, they gave a total of $10,770, or less than 1 percent of the $1.2 million they earned during that period.
"As new parents who were paying off their large student loans, giving $10,000 to charity was as generous as they could be at the time," Obama spokesman Tommy Vietor said. The Obamas have two daughters, Malia, 9, and Sasha, 6.

Note their "generous" giving over the years. Sounds like most professing Christians doesn't it?

Anyway, so much for his "Pastor" and the whole "poor black man" thing.

Barack Obama and His Preacher

He prayed with him before deciding to run for the Presidency.
He has attended the church and sought spiritual advice from him for over 20 years.
He still seeks his advice.

Barack Obama and the Reverend Jeremiah Wright of the Trinity United Church of Christ (not to be confused with or affiliated with THE Church of Christ denomination) is who I am writing about today.

I have attached a recent sermon from the REVEREND. I want you to pay close attention to not only what he says but watch the people in the audience.
Is this what church is supposed to be like?
I thought we came to church to praise God, worship Him, bless Him, learn about Him, pray to Him, seek Him, glorify Him, sing to Him etc etc. Can you imagine going to church and hearing this type of preaching? Feel like worshiping God after that?
Evidently, Barack Obama goes to church for other reasons.
You also have to ask Barack, "when you heard some of this stuff, especially while running for president, why didn't you RUN from this church?"
I shudder to think of this man as "spiritual" advisor to our next possible president.

Now, I don't want to hear arguments about how "black culture" is different from ours. MY God is the same for everyone. MY God never instructed us in HIS Word to speak in such a way about others.
I could go on and on but don't need to, the video speaks for itself.

There are many more of his sermons on YouTube, but most have such foul language (yes, in church) that I can't put them on here. Also if you google him you will find these sermons in print.
Heck, if you are in the ministry or considering preaching, you can even download "advice on preaching" from him!

God forgive this agent of Satan. God help those being led astray by this False Prophet. God please help our Nation to fall on our knees and beg for forgiveness for our evil ways.
