Quote:
Barack Obama said Saturday he has resigned his 20-year membership in the Trinity United Church of Christ in Chicago "with some sadness" in the aftermath of inflammatory remarks by his longtime pastor, the Rev. Jeremiah Wright, and more recent fiery remarks at the church by a visiting priest.
"This is not a decision I come to lightly ... and it is one I make with some sadness," Obama said at a news conference after campaign officials released a letter of resignation he sent to the church on Friday.

Hmm. What happened to "you give your loyalty to a church, not a pastor"? I guess you don't give it to either, if it's not politically tenable.
Then again, Obama has begun his own religion anyway.
