WASHINGTON, March 19 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Just as Sen. Barack Obama sought to distance himself from controversial racial remarks made by his pastor, an anti-American-government, anti-white and virally anti-Semitic black supremacist party has endorsed the presidential candidate on Obama's own website.

"Obama will stir the 'Melting Pot' into a better 'Molten America,'" states an endorsement from the New Black Panther Party, or NBPP, which is a registered team member and blogger on Obama's "MyObama" campaign website.

The NBPP is a controversial black extremist party whose leaders are notorious for their racist statements and for leading anti- white activism.

Malik Zulu Shabazz, NBPP national chairman, who has given scores of speeches condemning "white men" and Jews, confirmed his organization's endorsement of Obama in an interview with WND today.

"I think the way Obama responded to the attack on him and the attempt to sabotage his campaign shows true leadership and character. He had a chance to denounce his pastor and he didn't fall for the bait. He stood up and addressed real issues of racial discord," stated Shabazz.

"I have nothing but respect for Obama and for his pastor," said Shabazz, referring to Jeremiah Wright, Obama's pastor of nearly 20 years whose racially charged and anti-Israel remarks were widely circulated last week landing the presidential candidate in hot water.

Lots of phone numbers and contact info here for all you amateur sleuths who are still in denial. I'm guessing that it isn't shocking that a black group is supporting Obama, given he has been receiving more than 80% of their vote. (1 image)

WorldNetDaily is the organ that the other day falsely claimed Obama was at Rev. Wright's sermon on July 22, 2007.

Even if it is true that the New Black Panther Party endorsed Obama, how do we know they did not do this to sandbag Obama's campaign? Don't they appear on Fox News? Who finances them?

That was a NewsMax reporter who claimed to be a witness and saw Obama in person at that particular service.

The information the Obama campaign provided was that he had been at an event in Iowa the previous evening, July 21, and was in Miami to deliver a speech at a lunch on 1:30 PM on July 22. (From Miami, he went on to Columbia SC, by the way, and stayed in SC the following two days.) When you take account of the one- hour time difference between Chicago and Miami, and the scheduled times of the services at Obama's church in Chicago, it was impossible for him to have attended a service at that church that day.

Funny how that works, isn't it? Reporters and columnists constantly crib from one another and one error can work its way down the chain.

At least Kristol was honest enough to say "I was wrong" as we all should be when we are in error.

By the way, the reporter for this particular story on WND also posts on Free Republic. He now claims it must have been at some other service that month at which he saw Obama in attendance at one of Rev. Wright's sermons. (That month of July 2007, Wright preached on only two Sundays, July 1 and July 22.) He also says he can't verify any of this any more, as he has lost his notes.

I haven't found a WND story repeating the NewsMax claims yet. I've just run two searches and nothing popped up.

WND claims to have interviewed the New Black Panthers directly. That appears to be credible.
