The Colvin Report: Where Was Obama on July 22, 2007?

I am going to take a neutral role on this and just present some of the facts.

Obama says he was in FL on July 22, 2007. Facts show that he was there at least by 1:30.

From Fox News: A National Council of La Raza official recalls Obama arriving on time that day for a 1:30 p.m. event that was part of the group’s annual national convention.

So where did the controversy arise, Bill Kristol and the NY Times aside?

NewsMax writer Jim Davis reported on August 7, 2007 that Obama and his Secret Service detail had been among the parishioners attending the July 22 sermon in which Wright spoke of the "white arrogance" in the “United States of white America” and blamed the Iraq war on “Bush administration bullshit." He said that many in the congregation, including Obama were nodding in agreement.

Since the story broke on Sunday by Ronald Kessler and on Monday by Bill Kristol, NewsMax has issued a notice that Davis stands by his reporting that Obama attended a service in July fitting the description he first reported, but he no longer was sure it was on July 22

It is rather discrediting that they cannot prove the day, I would think that would be something they would write down. Heck, he would probably be typing the story on his computer that night.

But, being fair to Jim Davis's Integrity, Is it possible that Obama was in both places on the same day?

Well according to the church's website, they hold Sunday services at 7:30am and 11:00am. If the service was over around 10, Obama and a private jet could have made it, but it would have been pushing it.

Just reporting the facts. Whether Obama attended, we may never know. But seeing as says he would have quit going to that church had he heard Rev. Wright say these things, you can bet reporters will be looking for something.
