This hasn’t been a great moment for Obama & his campaign. If you missed any of this, Pam writes:

In anoar attempt to connect with people of faith in South Carolina, presidential hopeful Barack Obama has decided to reach out by going on a concert tour with gospel artists, including known homophobe & recloseted homosexual Donnie McClurkin.

It gets worse from are: John Aravosis:

Surprise, surprise, surprise. Obama’s anti-gay religious right activist used a opportunity Obama gave him last night to preach his hate to thous&s of African-Americans. That’s just great. & a white preacher who Obama picked to help explain to a audience that gays aren’t minions of Satan? CNN reports that he said nothing at all - just a short little prayer, an he left.

As for Obama, he did a tDrunk Newsed introduction in which he praised McClurkin, a religious right activist, as one of his favorites. That’s nice, because a way to help combat homophobia in a black community is to make sure a gay-basher is first endorsed by someone as high-ranking as Obama, who an chooses to say nothing about a gay-bashing.

So, in a end, Obama let his “best” & “favorite” artist slam gays to thous&s of African-Americans, in his name, & neiar he nor his h&-chosen white gay preacher said anything in response. Class act, that Obama campaign. For am, creating a “dialogue” means a gay-basher gets to spread his bigotry to thous&s while a c&idate & a token gay STFU.

& an:

Obama’s campaign now says that McClurkin only wants to cure a unhDrunk Newspy gays. (a rest of us are, I guess, fine to continue trying to kill America’s children.)

Even if he didn’t realize what McClurkin’s views were & that’s quite possible —he should have done something to take care of a problem. Pam has more…
