Hmmm... this guy sounds familiar, where have I heard of him before?
Here is a little about him from wikipedia:
As a younger man,
Manning burglarized homes, mostly on Long Island.
He spent about three and a half years in prison in New York and Florida for burglery, robbery, larceny, criminal possession of a weapon, and other charges before his release in 1978.
While in prison, he became a devout Christian.
His congregation, "ATLAH Worldwide Missionary Church" is the former Bethelite Missionary Baptist Church. The church is also the site of the ATLAH Theological Seminary, where "The renowned and educationally astute Honorable
James David Manning, PhD" offers classes on preaching and prophesy."
The seminary accepts Visa, Amex and Discover.
Wow!!!! I've always wanted to be a prophet... I should sign up immediatly! lol!!!!
Manning achieved some controversy in the 2008 Presidential Election after ATLAH posted several sermons of his that were harshly critical of Barack Obama on Youtube. Among other accusations,
he called Obama a "Good House Negro" in one sermon while in
another he referred to Obama as "trash" due to his mixed racial heritage and accused him of being a "pimp" and "long legged MacDaddy", citing the viral video "
I Got A Crush... On Obama". In another
video,
Manning calls Obama's mother "trash" for becoming pregnant out of wedlock.
here is another beautiful video of Manning's titled "Half of a Negro, 3/5ths of a Man in the White House."
Here is his website for the ATLAH World Ministries.
This is another quote from one of his crazy sermons:
"
The difference between Obama's mama and Bristol Palin is that Obama's mama was trash. I mean, she was dirt. She was a bag of trash sitting on the sidewalk waiting there in Honolulu on one of those streets for the garbage truck to come by and pick her up and take her to the dump."
"
My mama told me back in the '50s and the '60s, the only kind of white women that would take up with a black man back in the '50s and the '60s was a trashy white woman. The only kind of white woman that would take up with a black man in the '50s and the '60s was a sloozy, was a floozy, was a lowlife, snail-eating, white woman. That's the kind of woman that Obama's mama was."
"
Want to talk about Bristol Palin? Let's talk about that piece of trash called Obama's mama. Want to talk about Bristol Palin? Let's talk about that trash that hatched Obama. Yeah!."
I stopped listening after he kept calling Senator Obama "
Senator Tarzan"
His church is also being investigated by the I.R.S. for his expressed opposition to the election of Barack Obama.
WHAT A DOUCHE!!!!!!
