The crazy uncles in Obama's attic
Will the black nationalists and white lefties who pushed Obama up the political ladder in Chicago prove to be a liability to his White House run?
By Edward McClelland [2008-03-18]

  • United Church of Christ

    I was not quite sure whether the "anti-American cult" designation for the United Church of Christ was meant to be tongue-in-cheek, but I certainly hope so. A couple of other things that must be made clear. There is no doctrinal discipline in the UCC as there is in hierarchical churches like Roman Catholicism. It should not be assumed that Rev. Wright speaks for the UCC or that the UCC approves his words. Also "Trinity United" is not a logical short form of the church's name. "United" is attached to United Church of Christ, not to Trinity. An appropriate short form would be "Trinity UCC". Anybody who is interested in learning more about the denomination should visit www.ucc.org.
