She has one little problem making that claim stick.

Juan Williams, a Fox commentator whose book addresses the 'phony leaders and dead end groups that "promote a Culture of Failure and are undermining Black America,” tells Newsmax that Wright’s sermons reflect “the victim mindset that is so self-defeating in the black community and one that is played on by weak black leadership that chooses to have black people identified as victims rather than inspiring them as people who have overcome. In posing as victims, they say the most prejudiced and vicious things, not only about whites but about America. They call it theology. In fact, it’s nothing but bigotry.”
Though Obama claimed he never heard his pastor Jeremiah Wright, preach hatred of America, Obama was in the pews last July 22 when the minister blamed the “white arrogance” of America’s Caucasian majority for the world’s suffering, especially the oppression of blacks.
"I decry racism and anti-Semitism in every form and strongly condemn the anti-Semitic statements made by Minister Farrakhan," Obama said. But after Wright’s church gave a lifetime achievement award to Louis Farrakhan in December, Obama was careful not to condemn Farrakhan himself or Wright for their church's commendation of the controversial Nation of Islam leader.
Like Wright, Farrakhan has repeatedly made hate-filled statements targeting Jews (calling Judaism a “gutter religion”), whites, America, and homosexuals. He has called whites “blue-eyed devils” and the “anti-Christ.” and described Jews as “bloodsuckers” who control the government, the media, and some black organizations.

I don't understand how it is that he's still in this race.
But then again, I don't understand how Hillary! ever got in to begin with, let alone BO (they both stink).
This is what it took to make Hillary look warm and decent...
No wonder she didn’t bow out. She knew what was coming.
If Hillary is a smart as I think she is, she’ll immediately go after the Jewish vote in PA, Florida, NY, CA and elsewhere and show herself to be a strong supporter of Israel BUT ALSO to lambaste Obama’s mentor/preacher of 29 years as the anti-Semite, bigot and racist that he (the preacher) is.
No-Mo-Bama may well wish he had kept going to a mosque.
What makes you think he ever stopped?
I think we want Obama to be lightly toasted but not done. Strong enough to hit Hillary, wounded enough to be vicious about it.
Both candidates are deeply flawed, as long as they both vie for power, they will continue to claw at each other.
The ideal outcome is death by a thousand blows to each culminating in August.
No, he needs to send picutres. There are evidence that Obama was in Florida on July 22 2007 attending the La Raza conference.
Juan Williams is a lefty, but an honest and perceptive lefty.
She has one little problem making that claim stick.

What time was Wright sermon? It takes 3 hour to go from Chicago to Miami so Obama has to leave Chicago by 9:30 AM (10:30 AM Miami time) at the latest.
So he missed one racist event in order to attend another?
BE VERY CAREFUL. Obama campaign says he didnt attend any services on July 22. There was some conference he went to in Florida in the afternoon.
Could it be that the date was the 29th, very similar to 22, or 15th or 8th of July?
And who delivers the killing blow? Rush, Sean, Newsmax, LGF, and FreeRepublic. Hillkary and her flying monkeys don’t even have to get their hands dirty,
I noticed that there are two “religions” that spend most of their sermon time in angry tirades about the people that they hate. Black churches and the Cult of Death.
Black churches blame all their problems on Whitey and oppression, not on self-loathing and self-induced pathologies. The Cult of Death spews hatred for Jews and Christians and urges followers to go out and cut their heads off.
It still remains to be shown, that if the man can’t be lucid enough to be apprised of his own church’s true mission after 20 years, how the hell can he be fit to assess his role in the white house?
It stinks all over - The church has nothing to lose in all this anyway. I bet their attendance and DVD sales are way up there!
Understanding their hatred of America and there self hatred is the key to understanding the Dem left.
40 minute speech.
doh I always have to scroll down the thread

It was not Wright who gave the sermon at 7:30 AM.
Just another example that great minds think alike!
Juan Williams has come a long way in the years I have been watching and listening to him. The permanent sneer in his voice and on his face has disappeared. It used to be a struggle for me just to listen to him but somewhere along the line, he must have had an epiphany and saw the error of his thinking. I now consider him to be on the right side of at least this issue and that is a real good thing.
What really needs to be discussed is how the Democratic controlled education system is the biggest contributor to the suppression of people of color.
Democratic candidates need their supporters to be illiterate so that they are the only source of information.
In the 40 years that the democrats and teachers unions have been running education, the achievement gap has grown to an abyss.
Why don’t Black Pastors see this?
If only excelling in school and fighting for effective education programs were the social gospel.
Hey, he’s a Chicago politician. Integrity is a dirty word to those guys.
I fail to see why photos are even necessary. BHO attended this church (and still does) for two decades. Does anyone really think Wright delivered hate speech only once in all that time?
BHOs disclaimer is more than fishy, it’s a lie.
Thanks for the post.

As long as the MSM and others continue to focus on personalities like pastor Wright and speculate whether Obama was at a particular sermon or not, the better it is for Obama who can distance himself from Wright and claim he wasn't present at some of the sermons. The focus should be on the church itself and Obama's 20 year association with it.
“Black churches blame all their problems on Whitey and oppression, not on self-loathing and self-induced pathologies. The Cult of Death spews hatred for Jews and Christians and urges followers to go out and cut their heads off.”
It’s certainly no wonder why blacks support the enemies of Israel.
The Rezko money that Obama keeps sending to charities after getting caught, where’s it going? Obama made personal contributions of over $22,000 to this black nationalist church.
Did any of the Rezko money make its way to Wright?

“Black churches blame all their problems on Whitey and oppression”
I think we’re painting too broad of a brush here. I’ve known some religious black people and attended some black churches and nothing like this was preached at the pulpit and I think these same people would be appalled at what comes out as a sermon. Certainly ancedotal evidence and maybe its the better nature in me, but I think that the majority of black churches would have nothing to do with this crap.
Let’s remember that J.C. Watts is an ordained minister. I seriously doubt his sermons have ever touched on this crap. By painting a broad brush of all black churches we are guilty of the same garbage that this pastor is.
It was 20 years, not 29. Otherwise you're spot on. :)
The Clintons didn’t want to have to play the Wright card,
but, in the situation they’re in, they had to.
Wait a minute!
I have PROOF that he was at a Karl Marx rally on July 22, 2007! That’s proof that he wasn’t at the hate America sermon!
(/sarc)
Oh really, La Raza? That's like saying he skipped the nazi rally in Skokie to go to a klan meeting somewhere...
Just as expository are the leftists calling in to talk radio and asking what was wrong about what Wright said.
In other words, he was telling the truth as the left sees it.
It might have been MLK jr that said
there are those who have a lot of power and money at stake in keeping the grievances of the black man in the forefront of everyone’s minds.
He pretty much said he didn’t believe Barry’s denial.
Hillary orchestrated this. She offered Hussein the VP nomination and he declined...
Since he wouldn't play ball with her, she played the other card.
Where’d the picture of Hussein posing with the Muslims come from? Do you have a link?
So, you’re basically saying Jim Davis is lying in his article.
He’ll should be, but he won’t be. There is a reason this “broke” the day after a primary where there were 6 weeks+ until the next one. This would have to remain the lead story for more than a month to be on the minds of voters in late April, and by then something else will likely break that will move it off the front page.
Yes.
