the Tony Rodham / Tina / Bishops combo platter... http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2015/10/06/source-african-american-church-rejects-multiple-requests-hillary-clinton-speak/ ---------- Forwarded message ---------- I would normally agree, but it's Breitbart, our being in the story will be legitimizing. I'm going to say something more absolute, like "Patently False."

I have been told to expect a call today by Bishop Blake's office basically relaying that we do not have an official invitation to the event. From everything I can gather, a bishop under Bishop Blake (Bishop Sanders) got ahead of himself and sent a letter to HRC inviting her to their conference in November. We did not, however, proactively request to be a part of the event. We have merely been responding to what we thought was a normal letter of invitation. Happy to discuss more on the phone.
