And it\u2019s Barack Hussein Obama, who, as we now know, almost has genuine slave blood.  Yes, we had that story yesterday from the joyful AP.  He\u2019s almost got direct linkage to slave number one in this country.  They can\u2019t prove it.  That didn\u2019t stop them from running the story.  Dawn, you weren\u2019t here yesterday.  You don\u2019t know about this.  Oh, this was hilarious.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, some black men of the cloth. A coalition of black ministers is not happy with Barack Obama because of his gay marriage support.  You know, Democrats are talking about putting a plank in the party platform supporting gay marriage.  The White House is not saying anything about that.  But there is a black minister out there, the Reverend Williams Owens.  He\u2019s the head of the Coalition of African-American Pastors, and he said, &#8220;For the president to bow to the money as Judas did for Jesus Christ is a disgrace and a shame.&#8221;  He was referring to Obama doing an about-face regarding gay marriage and the millions of dollars in campaign donations that the flip-flop earned him.  We have the audio sound bites.  Yesterday in Washington, the National Press Club, the Coalition of African-American Pastors held a presser to launch a nationwide campaign opposing Obama\u2019s support of gay marriage.  The Reverend Williams Owens spoke.  Here is a portion of what he said.<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_65395\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/PastorCAAP.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>OWENS:  The time has come for a broad-base assault against the powers that be that want to change our culture to one of men marrying men and women marrying women.  The president has ignored the black community because he feels he has us in his pocket.  But we are not in his pocket.  And because he\u2019s black, we refuse to give him a pass.  I am shamed that the first black president chose this road, a disgraceful road.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  He is shamed that the first black president, who was Bill Clinton, chose this road.  This disgraceful road.  And Reverend Owens continued.<\/p>\n<p>OWENS:  The president is in the White House because of the civil rights movement, and I was a leader in that movement, and I didn\u2019t march one inch, one foot, one yard, for a man to marry a man and a woman to marry a woman.  So the president has forgotten the price that was paved for the president to bow to the money, as Judas did for Jesus Christ, is a disgrace, and we are shamed.  We will not take it back, we will not back down.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  I didn\u2019t march, not one inch, not one foot, not one yard for a man to marry a man and a woman to marry a woman.  These guys are serious.  That\u2019s not what the civil rights movement was about to them, and they do not like it being appropriated this way.  They do not like the civil rights movement effectively being expanded or stolen to include the agenda of gay marriage.  They are not down for that struggle.  Well, I tell you what, I wonder if Rahm Emanuel will ban Williams Owens and his church from Chicago, because Reverend Owens here is not reflecting Chicago values.  And I wonder if Mayor Menino in Boston will see fit to call a press conference and tell Reverend Owens, &#8220;Don\u2019t try to open a church here, pal.&#8221;  Clearly, this isn\u2019t Chicago values; this is not Boston values, according to the mayors.  Reverend Owens again.<\/p>\n<p>OWENS:  Another very important point I think that needs to be made is if you watch the men who have been caught having sex with little boys, you will note that all of them will say that I was molested as a child, a man molested me in my home, wherever, they will say they were molested.  And for the president to condone this type thing, knowing the full facts is just irresponsible.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  He\u2019s Judas.  He did it for the money.  They were not down for the struggle.  This isn\u2019t what they marched for, not one inch, not one foot, not one yard.  And this could amount to something. <\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Reverend Williams Owens was quoted by Fox.  &#8220;Some people saying that because of the position Chick-fil-A is taking, they don\u2019t want \u2019em in their cities.  That is a disgrace. It\u2019s the same thing that happened when I was marching for civil rights, when they didn\u2019t want a black to come into their restaurant.&#8221;  Williams Owens talking about Rahm Emanuel in Chicago.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: There\u2019s a guy out there who is in real trouble, folks.
