In a segment inspired by the last night's New York Times revelation that Obama dis-invited the pastor of his church the night before he was to give the invocation at the senator's official presidential announcement last month.
Feeling the heat from bloggers and conservative media over the church's black-nationalist agenda, Obama thought it best to dump his pastor, the Reverend Jeremiah Wright from his Springfield speaking bill.
Reverend Patterson of BOND, a black conservative organization, was on the show with a Democratic staffer whose name got away from me, and Patterson referred to Trinity as "a racist church."
The Dem staffer tried to bring Ann Coulter into the mix, and didn't do a very good job of countering what Peterson had to say.
The issues of Trinity United Church of Christ won't go away for Obama. Bloggers will keep bringing up the church's controversial tenet. And the more Obama attempts to distance himself from the church, the more he risks being called a turncoat by the black community.
