I understand much of the media isn't too bright, but could they at least master remedial math?
Obama Resigns 20-Year Church Membership
Barack Obama has resigned his 20 year membership in the Trinity United Church of Christ in Chicago in the aftermath of inflammatory remarks by his longtime pastor the Rev. Jeremiah Wright and more recent fiery remarks at the church by another minister.But by most accounts, Obama has been a member since 1992.
Obama's spokesman, Robert Gibbs, gave no details, but said Obama had sent a letter resigning from the church he has attended for 16 years. Obama, who would be the first black U.S. president, was expected to make some comments on his decision later in the day, Gibbs said.Of course, at last night's lame press conference, The Wizard of Uhhhs couldn't even tell us the last time he visited the Church of Hate.
Perhaps the media ineptitude stems from Obama's own statements.
"I have been a member of Trinity Church since 1992. I have known Rev. Wright for almost 20 years," he said at a news conference in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. "The person I saw yesterday is not the person I met 20 years ago."If you're wondering why I've dubbed him The Wizard of Uhhhs, just watch the video. It actually got worse during the question and answer segment, but this is just his statement.
Update: Nice to see the Associated Press is now dispensing advice to Obama.
