Obama's Church Choice For Easter Based On Race?

WRNO.com:

It may sound a little callous and abrasive to even be suspicious of Obama's choice of churches for Easter Sunday 2011, but given the climate of the media bias so overwhelmingly in favor of casting Obama in the best light possible, the regular media professionals can't be trusted to actually do some basic reporting.

The one and only detail reported about Shiloh Baptist Church was that it was founded by freed slaves during the Civil War. There was no mention that this was the first Presidential visit to Shiloh, nor any mention that this inaugural visit could be more than a coincidence.

Was there no mention that this is a predominately black church because the media didn't want the American people to know that our President chooses his church based on race? I'm reticent to openly guess at the media's intentions, but when flattering facts are reported and unflattering facts are omitted, we have no choice but to fill in the blanks.

It's understandable that the President hasn't been to eager to jump back into church life given that the one and only church our President has ever joined in his life is one of the biggest political sandbags he carried through the 2008 campaign.

One has to dig into the blog notes from various reporters to piece together the content from the sermon. Aside from the First Couple being honored guests, Pastor Wallace Charles Smith also announces that his 4 week old grandson is attending church for the first time, and a pool reporter noted an interesting perspective on the infant:

Everything Obama does is based on race.

Frustratingly you hear the pastor's kind of perspective every day.

Like the lady who called Hannity the other week to inform him that he could not "understand" or relate to African Americans. Her great grandparents did not come here by choice but on a slave ship but her grandparents got a college degree and so did her parents and so did she and she is proud of them for what they and Obama have overcome (ALL because of slavery in their backgrounds!!)

 

Sean who was only saying the policies of the O are disastrous and detrimental was incredulous. See, you can't criticize any "action" of the O because that means you don't like him because he is African American (which he is not) and thus you are racist and arrogant and superior.

A totally amazing blind and stone deaf world view.

 

This pastor re-enforces such deep buried biases. In his mind set "Thank you God for giving us Barack Obama" He is beyond any criticism simply because he is A/A --ask Juan Williams who is a Christian

 

Incidentally just as a reminder- the video was 2010. The pieced together parts mentioned in the article are current.
