I was wondering when someone would start digging through old copies of that rag. I saw part of the Nov-Dec issue online and it was damning. Hopefully the GOP and McCain won’t let this Wright and the TUCC issue die out of some mistaken sense of “taking the high road”. This speaks directly to Obama’s judgment and honesty.

I’m sure we will be disappointed.

We can put it out ourselves. Just start a web site up for donations for national commercials of this info and we can guarantee that everyone in America knows about it. It worked for Ron Paul, it can work for this too.

I think most know instinctively it was everything and always except for the very naive supporters who don’t care anyway.

My question is: Are all of the votes that were cast for Obama prior to the Wright exposé now considered to be valid? How many people who voted before the Wright implosion would now still vote for Obama?

In my opinion, every time Wright and other black liberation types attack “White Supremecy” they are in fact using it to attack America. This is a fact that needs to be publicized as much as possible, so the electorate knows how evil and treasonous black liberation theology is.

Once this gets out, Obama won’t only be black - he’ll be toast.

The Real Story Behind Rev. Wright's Controversial Black Liberation Theology Doctrine
Monday , May 5, 2008
FoxNews/Hannity's America
[special Friday night edition--original airdate May 2, 2008]

(some key excerpts)

REV. BOB SCHENCK, NATIONAL CLERGY COUNCIL: "it's based in Marxism. At the core of his [Wright's] theology is really an anti-Christian understanding of God, and as part of a long history of individuals who actually advocate using violence in overthrowing those they perceive to be oppressing them, even acts of murder have been defended by followers of liberation theology. That's very, very dangerous."

SCHENCK: "I was actually the only person escorted to Dr. Wright. He asked to see me, and I simply welcomed him to Washington, and then I said Dr. Wright, I want to bring you a warning: your embrace of Marxist liberation theology. It is contrary to the Gospel, and you need, sir, to abandon it. And at that he dropped the handshake and made it clear that he was not in the mood to dialogue on that point."

JOSE DIAZ-BALART, TELEMUNDO NETWORK: "Liberation theology in Nicaragua in the mid-1980's was a pro-Sandinista, pro-Marxist, anti-U.S., anti-Catholic Church movement. That's it. No ifs, ands, or buts. His church apparently supported, in the mid-'80s in Nicaragua, groups that supported the Sandinista dictatorships and that were opposed to the Contras whose reason for being was calling for elections. That's all I know. I was there.

. I saw the churches in Nicaragua that he spoke of, and the churches were churches that talked about the need for violent revolution and I remember clearly one of the major churches in Managua where the Jesus Christ on the altar was not Jesus Christ, he was a Sandinista soldier, and the priests talked about the corruption of the West, talked about the need for revolution everywhere, and talked about 'the evil empire' which was the United States of America."

Obama's Church: Gospel of Hate
Kathy Shaidle, FrontPageMag.com
Monday, April 07, 2008

In March of 2007, FOX News host Sean Hannity had engaged Obama’s pastor in a heated interview about his Church’s teachings. For many viewers, the ensuing shouting match was their first exposure to "Black Liberation Theology"...

Like the pro-communist Liberation Theology that swept Central America in the 1980s and was repeatedly condemned by Pope John Paul II, Black Liberation Theology combines warmed-over 1960s vintage Marxism with carefully distorted biblical passages. However, in contrast to traditional Marxism, it emphasizes race rather than class. The Christian notion of "salvation" in the afterlife is superseded by "liberation" on earth, courtesy of the establishment of a socialist utopia.

Obama the "transformer"

Source: http://abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory?id=4337417

Louis Farrakhan, at the Millions More Movement rally in DC, Oct 15, 2005: "...what Mao Tse Tung did was, he went to the cultural community, and they [Farrakhan spreads his arms beneficently] accepted his idea."..."Mao Tse Tung ... had a billion people whose lives he had to transform."..."the idea of Mao Tse Tung became the idea of a billion people, and China became a world power on the base of the culture and the arts community. If we had a ministry of art and culture in every city we'd create this movement

You're welcome. Although it is widely known by theologians that Liberation Theology and its offshoot Black Liberation Theology are both based in Marxism, hardly anyone in the media (including the right-wing media) apparently feels it is necessary to point this fact out to people. Very strange. But what is even less known by the public is that the Nation of Islam is also basically a communist movement.

Very comprehensive article. Obama knew everything. Still waiting for “Rev.” Wright to respond to being thrown under Obama’s bus. Wonder how long this narcissistic, hateful man can keep quiet.

Thank you, again. Yours prompted me to trek down memory lane to pull from a Jonah Goldberg article. As I'm sure you know, the word "global" is being used to hide "Marxist" and Marxist Theology. And the Media knows this:

Jonah Goldberg, LA Times, October 7, 2007:

--snip

I've come around to the view that the culture war can best be understood as a conflict between two different kinds of patriotism. On the one hand, there are people who believe being an American is all about dissent and change, that the American idea is inseparable from "progress." America is certainly an idea, but it is not merely an idea. It is also a nation with a culture as real as France's or Mexico's. That's where the other patriots come in; they think patriotism is about preserving Americanness.

Yet the strangest and most ironic aspect of our national culture is that we have an aversion to talking about a national culture. Samuel Huntington, one of the country's premier social scientists, has become something of a pariah for constantly reminding people (in books such as "The Clash of Civilizations" and "Who Are We?") that the United States is a nation, not just a government and a bunch of interest groups.

Many liberals hear talk of national culture and shout, "Nativist!" first and ask questions later, if at all. They believe it is a sign of their patriotism that they hold fast to the idea that we are a "nation of immigrants" -- forgetting that we are also a nation of immigrants who became Americans.

As the host of the "Today" show in 2003, Couric said of the lost crew members of the space shuttle Columbia: "They were an airborne United Nations -- men, women, an African American, an Indian woman, an Israeli. . . ." As my National Review colleague Mark Steyn noted, they weren't an airborne U.N., they were an airborne America. The "Indian woman" came to America in the 1980s, and, in about a decade's time, she was an astronaut. "There's no other country on Earth where you can do that," Steyn rightly noted.

Forgive this link and if it has been posted before, but you never know when there is a grain of truth even in a tabloid:
*******
http://www.globemagazine.com/story/177

PRESIDENTIAL hopeful Barack Obama is tangled up in a gay-murder probe as insiders ask: How much does the Democratic candidate really know about the shooting death of the choir director at his controversial Chicago church? Our blockbuster Special Report reveals shocking charges of a link between gay murder victim Donald Young and Obama - and a private investigator’s stunning claim the choir director was killed to silence him.

I don’t subscribe so couldn’t read the entire article. Maybe it’s just about a two headed alien baby :-)

Ain't it the truth! That Katie Couric is, like, sooo clueless. lol. Thanks for the article.

"As the host of the 'Today' show in 2003, Couric said of the lost crew members of the space shuttle Columbia: 'They were an airborne United Nations -- men, women, an African American, an Indian woman, an Israeli. . . .'
