Obama, Wright, Farrakhan: Trumpet Cover Boys

"Obama, Farrakhan share" from WND reports that Barack Obama, Reverend Jeremiah Wright and Louis Farrakhan appeared on the cover of the Trinity United Church of Christ's newsletter Trumpet together - and Obama appeared several other times - making one wonder about the veracity of Obama's claims that he was unaware of some of the anti-American claims made by Reverend Wright.

Issues of Wright's Trumpet magazine reportedly have suggested America was guilty of genocide in Africa, decried the Fourth of July as the "national holiday of the dominant culture," referred to America as a "diaspora" for blacks, repudiated American patriotism and entertained suggestions the Bush administration knew about the 9-11 attacks before they were carried out.

"It seems inconceivable that, in 20 years, Obama would never have picked up a copy of Trumpet," writes Stanley Kurtz in a lengthy Weekly Standard expose of Wright's magazine. "Obama himself graced the cover. ... There can be no mistaking it. What did Barack Obama know and when did he know it? Everything. Always."

The business-oriented blog Bizzyblog found three cover images of Obama. One featured the Illinois senator and Wright shaking hands.
