Six years ago, I was inspired to become an opinion columnist so I could attempt to give a different perspective on current events. Six years later, while watching this morning’s Good Morning America segment with Democrat operative Donna Brazille and NPR’s Juan Williams, I see there is a lot to do, especially when countering the leftist representation of Black opinion in the United States.
Sure, while 90-95% of Blacks vote Democrat, it is because of the inaccurate repetitions conducted daily by the mainstream media and those they ALLOW to speak for Black America.
Over the weekend, in response to the media firestorm created by past speeches of Barack Obama’s “former” pastor, the Reverend Jeremiah Wright, his church released a statement that unfortunately fell back on the old victimology playbook.
"We have listened and watched as the wonderful work of our church has been vilified this week," he told about 3,000 congregants on Palm Sunday morning. "This week should be special for us because I guess we know a little something about crucifixion." – Otis Moss III, the current pastor of Trinity United Church of Christ
The real “crucifixion” is being perpetrated by Pastor Moss, Brazille, Williams, and all the Media Matters-Think Progressive-Bill Maher-Air America-Daily Kos-Democracy Now!-college professoriate cabal that continues to distort Black American history to meet a liberal, victim strategy that keeps Blacks voting Democrat. It’s as simple as that.
So to make my point (and I’m warning the liberal media at the onset), I will take a look at one of Reverend Wright’s more “fiery” sermon segments. I know he’s a learned scholar, and I may be out of my league, but it’s my column and I’ll write about any topic I wish, so here goes….

Geez, I guess I’ll send them some Kleenex, poor widdle victims of the world.
Call the WAAAAAAmbulance!
Why else do they portray Clarence Thomas and Condoleeza Rice, the two most politically power African-Americans in the US, as apes? Why does the Democrat party keep pushing stereotypical clowns like Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton as "leaders of the Black community"?
I strongly disagree with Barack Obama's politics and do not wish him to be President. However, he's NOT a black politician in the traditional mold. Obama is scaring the bejeezus out of the Bull Connor wing of the Democrat Party.
Sorry Trinity...that dog wont hunt.
I don't care how many times Wright said what he did, or what overall percentage of his sermons it represents.
"God Damn America", "The US government created HIV to use on the blacks", "the US deserved 911 chickens coming home to roost", "the US government imports drugs to keep the blacks down", "rich white men rule America to keep the black man down", "Jesus Christ was a poor black man in a white ruled and supremist society", etc., etc. are all clearly hatefilled, disgusting perversions that no Christian preacher, white or black, should make a part of any of his sermons.
The fact is Wright is using such speech and such ideology to perpetuate the plight of those in America, white or black, who buy into this screed.
Wright is what Alan Keyes calls one of the "Masters of the Dream". He claims that Hillary Clinton uses blacks. Well, he is right on that count...but it's the pot calling the kettle black, so to speaik, because he is doing exactly the same thing.
I hope the leaders of this church continue to try and defend this digusting perversion. It exposes them for who they are and keeps this issue as regards Barack Hussein Obama on the forefront...all the way to their convention. Maybe the white superdelegates will steal the election from Obama because of his unebelievable ties to this disgusting hate America crowd and irrevocably split the DNC constiuencies.
I hope so.
Obama's lame attemmpts to distance himself from himself are pathetic and will fail.
Makes one wonder.....
Obama = “Stealth Radical”
Well written Mr. Parks.
Obama's wife = "Butt-Ugly Simi-Stealth Radical"
The beautiful thing is, the Democrats have outsmarted themselves decisively here (I’ll leave it as an exercise for the readers as to whether that was hard or not;).
The Dems have managed to end up with two candidates in the primaries which are NOT electable! Hillary due to her high negatives and lack of charisma, and Barack Hussein due to his nonexistant experience and wildly unrealistic policies.
Unless there’s a major meltdown (and the economy has me a bit nervous), I think McCain is more or less a shoo-in come November. =:-D
“we know a little something about crucifixion.”
Deflect and sucker-punch.

Mr Parks’ article is well worth reading entirely - hopefully by every black politician in the country.
Ain't nuthin 'stealth' about him! All you have to do is look at his voting record, and really listen to his solutions to the country's 'problems', and it's there for all to see.
The funny thing is, Barack Obama is probably the mosted liked Democrat that I have seen in a while.
Even many in the far Right crowd didn't seem to personally dislike him.
I assume we would disgree with his positions, if he had any, but it was nothing like the way, say, John Kerry was despised.
The "hate" that I have been seeing lately isn't coming from the us.
