Family Values, “Your Own House,” The White House

Most Democrats and the majority of American families believe it is appropriate for a mother to expose her children to a pastor who humps the altar while delivering a sermon in a church wherein God damns America.

Or at least this is what many will assume if Barack Obama becomes the Democratic nominee and Michelle Obama becomes First Lady.

Michelle claims one cannot run the White House if one cannot run their “own house.”

For according to her, one of the more important aspects of this “race” is “role modeling,” or “what good families should look like.” This prompts a few questions:

  • Do “good families” expose their children to pastors who hump their altars?
  • Do “good families” force their children to attend a God Damn America Church?
  • And do “good families” allow their children to be baptized by adulterers who exploit their position as pastor in order to gain access to women?

Yes, Michelle Obama’s children were baptized by an adulterer who humps the altar.

Reverend Wright baptized the Obamas’ children. He also served as a marriage counselor for two parishioners of Trinity in 1982. But instead of remaining neutral, Reverend Wright exploited his parishioners’ trust and counseled them separately, a violation of the golden rules of pastors. He then proceeded to marry one of the parishioners, a decision for which he was rightly criticized by activist Derrick Mosley, a man whose life Wright has threatened from the pulpit. Do pastors regularly steal their parishioners’ wives? And do women who claim they can run their “own house” expose their children to such men?

Obama’s first child was born in 1999, 16 years after Reverend Wright indecorously precipitated the dissolution of the marriage of two of his parishioners. Wright baptized these children. He also officiated the Obamas’ marriage. But even worse, the Obama children were regularly exposed to death threats, lewd gestures, unpatriotic statements and other forms of madness when they were forced by their parents to sit in the pews of Trinity Church.

  • Do role models expose their children to hate?
  • Do role models expose their female children to male philanderers who perform sexual gestures while preaching in a church?
  • Do role models allow their children to attend a church wherein the pastor issues death threats?
  • Moreover, do role models fail to ask those with whom they share the table to “please pass this or that item?”

If you cannot run “your own house,” Michelle, you are unfit to run the White House, unless, of course, you sincerely believe this is how role models should raise their children.
