   WMR spoke to several well-placed sources in Chicago who reported   
   that Jeremiah Wright, the pastor of Obama’s former church of 20   
   years, Trinity United Church of Christ (TUCC) on Chicago’s south   
   side, ran what was essentially a matchmaking service for gay   
   married black professional members of the church, including   
   lawyers and businessmen, particularly those with children. The   
   matchmaking club was called the “Down Low Club” but references   
   to it over the phone and email simply referred to the group with   
   the code phrase “DLC.” The ruse, according to our sources, was   
   to make anyone who was eavesdropping on the communications   
   believe that the references were to the Democratic Leadership   
   Council, also known as the DLC.   
      
   The gay DLC’s services were intended to keep ensure TUCC’s gay   
   members avoided posting solicitations on web services like   
   Craig’s List and refrain from cruising gay bars. The strategy   
   was to protect them from getting busted and being “outed.”   
      
   Among the members of the gay “DLC” were Obama and TUCC’s choir   
   director, Donald Young, an openly gay man who reportedly had a   
   sexual relationship with Obama. Two other gay members of the   
   church were Larry Bland and Nate Spencer. Young and Bland were   
   brutally murdered, execution style, in late 2007. Bland was   
   murdered on November 17, 2007 and Young on December 24, 2007.   
   The latter was killed by multiple gunshot wounds. Spencer   
   reportedly died on December 26, 2007, official cause of death:   
   “septicemia, pneumonia, and HIV.”   
      
   “DLC” members often went on camping trips arranged by TUCC.   
   Wright reportedly was the head of the “DLC” matchmaking services   
   and ensured that its members protected each other.   
      
   The “DLC’s” clientele included Obama and other gay members of   
   TUCC, including, reportedly Young, Bland, and Spencer. Fox 32   
   Chicago reported that Bland’s mother, Josephine Bland, was so   
   upset at her son inviting men into their home as a result of   
   contacting them through gay web sites like “Adam4Adam,” she   
   moved out.   
      
   The gay community in Chicago knows to keep away from the TUCC   
   and “DLC” stories because of the “creepiness” of the operation   
   and the suspicious deaths of the three TUCC gay black men.   
      
   Although Obama protected his alternate life style through the   
   secretiveness of the “DLC,” he was not so careful when he   
   proclaimed he was a state senator while frolicking at Man’s   
   Country in uptown Chicago.
