What's The Obama-Wright Connection?
KITV ^ | October 9, 2008

Posted on 10/09/2008 7:31:29 AM PDT by IrishMike

Video clips of fiery sermons given by Sen. Barack Obama's former pastor, in Obama's former church, set off a firestorm of controversy in March during the Democratic primaries.

"We bombed Hiroshima, we bombed Nagasaki, and we nuked far more than the thousands in New York and the Pentagon, and we never batted an eye," Wright sermonized after the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks. "We have supported state terrorism against the Palestinians and black South Africans, and now we are indignant because the stuff we have done overseas is now brought right back to our own front yards. America's chickens are coming home to roost."

In another sermon he said Obama's opponents "hate old Barack because he doesn't fit the mold. He ain't white. He ain't rich. He ain't privileged," adding, "Barack knows what it means to be a black man living in a country and a culture that is controlled by rich white people. Hillary (Clinton)! Hillary ain't never been called a 'n*****!' Hillary has never had her people defined as a non-person."

"The government gives them the drugs, builds bigger prisons, passes a three-strike law and then wants us to sing 'God Bless America.' No, no, no, God damn America, that's in the Bible for killing innocent people," Wright said in a 2003 sermon. "God damn America for treating our citizens as less than human. God damn America for as long as she acts like she is God and she is supreme."

It is being talked about on the radio (Laura Ingram) that Ms Obama and Ayers wife worked together in the same law firm in 1988 and I forget which one by one of them got the other the job.

SOooooooooooooooooooooooooooo they knew each other for a longer time than admited to.
