WHAT A ‘REAL’ REVEREND LOOKS LIKE…


Slowly but surely it seems to be soaking into at least some people that Barry "Almighty" has been, and continues to be, the equivalent of a some sort of plague upon this country. And while more folks are now slowly coming to recognize what this guy really is, many more remain who still stubbornly refuse to accept what is going on right before their eyes. But one group is now doing its best to help spread the word in an attempt to increase awareness.

And it was during a press conference on Tuesday in Washington, D.C., that brought that attempt to light. The purpose of this press conference was to announce a signature campaign to impeach U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder, and it was Rev. Bill Owens, a man who happens to a real reverend and not some dime-store wannabe like Sharpton or Jackson, who said that Barry "Almighty has "hurt the American people." So he sees what’s happening here.

Rev. Owens, who is the founder and president of the Coalition of African American Pastors (CAAP), said at an event at the National Press Club, "We’re on a downward road." And he then went on to say, "And this president has done more to hurt the American people than any president, as I see it, in my lifetime and in history." Rev. Owens cited Holder’s "repeated lawlessness" of disregarding state laws and the Constitution.

And it was in a statement distributed at this same press conference that Rev. Owens said, "What we have in Attorney General Holder is a man so political in his zeal to redefine marriage that he is willing to run roughshod over the rulings of the Supreme Court, binging federal law, and the United States Constitution along with the constitutions of a majority of states." And he’s right, Holder continues to be rather selective about which laws ‘need’ to be enforced.

Rev. Owens said he wants "good Americans to stand up for what is right" by signing the impeachment petition, with the goal of gathering one million signatures. Rev. Owens also stressed that the petition is meant for all citizens regardless of race or creed. "Marriage is an institution that benefits all of society; therefore every citizen has an interest in protecting marriage from these brazen attacks," Owens said. He sees this as being a continuing effort to breakdown society.

Those in the black community would be doing themselves a huge favor if they were to ignore the screamers like Sharpton, Jackson and Farrakhan, and spend more time listening to men like Rev. Owens. I simply don’t see what benefit there is to be gained by listening to those who only pretend to be men of God, when you have the genuine article standing right in your midst. I keep hoping more blacks will figure things out, but I just keep being disappointed when they don’t.
