PASTOR REVEREND JAMES DAVID MANNING OF ATLAH WORLDWIDE INSULTS BARACK OBAMA AND HIS CONGREGATION VIDEO

Everyone is talking about Barack Obama's controversial pastor Reverend Jeremiah Wright at Trinity United Church of Christ.  But we must take a moment to mention Harlem payroll preacher Rev. James David Manning from Atlah Worldwide. The Reverend James Manning  PhD. posts his sermons on youtube and we must admit his pulpit lectures are funnier than SNL. The first time we saw or heard about Pastor Manning we actually thought he was a scripted comedian. Later we learned that Pastor Manning is a preacher with a respectable resume including having held corporate jobs as a marketing executive with Proctor & Gamble and Ford Motor Company.  Despite our knowledge of Pastor Manning's background we still weren't prepared to hear the harsh words or ideas that he was preaching.

We've included one of Pastor Manning's sermons called "Obama Got a White Mama. In the sermon Pastor Manning attacks Barack Obama and calls his whole congregation "maggots" and "despicable hypocrites without honor or integrity" because they didn't vote for Hillary Clinton and are supporting Barack Obama. This part of the diatribe begins at around 2:30 minutes. During the sermon Reverend James Manning claims not to be endorsing Hillary Clinton's campaign, but continues to advocate for the Clintons telling everyone how the community benefited from Bill Clinton's financial support. Reverend Manning makes sure to include a part in the sermon where he says "black men don't have a pot to piss in or a window to throw it out of." James Manning continues his words of wisdom by making broad generalizations about the entire Black community by calling "all black men pimps and playas and black women playa lovers". Towards the end of his message around the 8:08 minute mark he also evokes the wrath of God and condemns his congregation to "boiling egg shells to make soup and scraping up pigeon droppings to make gravy to put on egg shells to eat."

The irony of the "Obama Got a White Mama" sermon is it's somewhat similar to how Boondocks creator and satirist Aaron McGruder envisioned Martin Luther King Jr. might preach to his congregation if he were still alive today. Watch the Nightline interview below.

Rev. James David Manning also criticizes Oprah Winfrey who supports Barack Obama's campaign. Watch Oprah Winfrey has Jungle Fever.

The Hon. James David Manning, PhD was interviewed on Wednesday, 20 June 2007 by FOX 5 News Talk John Gibson Show about the presidental candidate Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton.

Larry Sinclair has thus far failed to produce a single viable piece of evidence. Is it any wonder nobody in the mainstream media wants to risk their career and credibility covering this farce?

Legally and morally, the burden is on Sinclair to prove his allegations, not on Obama to disprove them. Larry Sinclair knows this, but he is banking (quite literally) on the fact that the court of public opinion operates quite differently than a court of law, and isn't making any substantial effort to prove his accusations. He knows that it's hard to prove you DIDN'T do something, and is rallying the ignorant under this pretense to send him contributions (and any other number of other 'fundraising' activities of questionable legality).

I've been trying to get Mr. Sinclair to response to questions on his blog (simple ones, like "If you think Obama's phone records would prove you right, why don't you provide your phone records, they should work just as well, right?" ), but the blog is so heavily moderated that not one single real question can get through, and apparently even his own worshipers are now having a hard time posting due to overaggressive comment deletion.

I know several people who've tried to ask questions of Mr. Sinclair, but that is apparently not allowed on his blog, despite the fact that his blog clearly states "You may comment on any post, regardless of your position. However, please note that any and all abusive, threatening and vulgar comments and emails will result in your user name, email address and IP address being posted regardless and without the posters permission. You have been warned." .

Small wonder, huh? The guy who wants to force Obama to answer his questions will not answer anyone else's :)

And as if that weren't enough, this so-called Reverend (Mr. Manning) seems to worship Larry Sinclair *more* than he would worship God. He supports Sinclair to the hilt (no pun intended) even though Sinclair is admittedly gay, a drug user, a liar, a thief, and is clearly and unashamedly unrepentant. Manning, like Sinclair, is looking for 15 minutes of fame and a fatter pocketbook.

Neither Sinclair nor Manning show much in the way of critical thinking or reasoning skills, and really just give the impression of being "in it for the money".
