Here is video of Jon Voight speaking at the anti-ObamaCare teaparty rally on the capitol steps. Voight said that "President Obama has his own obsession with trying to ram this health bill through to create a socialist America." Voight also asked "could it be he(Obama) has had 20 years of subconscious programing by Rev. Wright to damn America?" (Video)

*Editor's Note:  The Wright video linked to in Cliff Kincaid's column, Controversial New Video of Obama's Pastor,  has been deleted. But the same video can still be viewed on YouTube in three parts. Here are part one, part two, and part three.  We do not know why the original video was taken down, but have our suspicions.

A new video has just surfaced showing Barack Obama’s 20-year pastor and mentor, Reverend Jeremiah Wright, praising Marxism. This speech by Wright was on September 17th of this year at the anniversary celebration of Monthly Review. (videos below) Wright said that while the “corporate media” provide a “binary lens” of the world, in such terms as “communist versus Christian,” Monthly Review offers what it calls “no-nonsense Marxism.” He added, “You dispel all the negative images we have been programmed to conjure up with just the mention of that word socialism or Marxism.” He concluded by calling America “land of the...

A new video has surfaced of Rev. Jeremiah Wright's speech at the 60th anniversary celebration of the independent socialist magazine, the Monthly Review, in which his antagonsim for the United States is on display. In the New York City speech Sept. 17, 2009, Wright, President Barack Obama's pastor for about 20 years, once again reveals his disdain and lack of respect for the United States of America as he identified his belief in black-liberation theology with the Marxist ideology that is central to the Monthly Review. Calling the United States, "the land of the greed and the home of the...

Here is complete video of Rev. Jeremiah Wright's speech in celebration of the 60th anniversary celebration of the independent socialist magazine Monthly Review. The event was held on September 17th, 2009, at the New York Society for Ethical Culture in New York City. He is introduced in the video by Robert W. McChesney, co-founder of Free Press, "an organization which has come under scrutiny for its links to the Obama Administration and dedication to the transformation and control of the private media in the U.S." McChesney has written: "Our job is to make media reform part of our broader struggle...

Here is video President Obama's long-time former pastor, Rev. Jeremiah Wright, appearance at a September 17, 2009, anniversary celebration of Monthly Review. In this clip, Wright praises Marxism: "You dispel all the negative images we have been programmed to conjure up with just the mention of that word socialism or Marxism." At the end of the clip, Wright refers to the United States as: "Land of the greed and home of the slave." . . . (VIDEO)

A new video of Jeremiah Wright has surfaced, showing Barack Obama's pastor of 20 years praising Marxism and discussing his ties to communists in El Salvador and Nicaragua and the Libyan government. Equally important, Wright is being introduced in the video by Robert W. McChesney, co-founder of Free Press, an organization which has come under scrutiny for its links to the Obama Administration and dedication to the transformation and control of the private media in the U.S. In an article in the socialist Monthly Review, "Journalism, Democracy, and Class Struggle," McChesney declared, "Our job is to make media reform part...

Since its inception, America has been defined by liberty -- both the liberty of the individual and the liberty of the nation. As the Declaration of Independence more elegantly states, "Goverments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed." If we, the people make a social compact by which we consent to be governed, it means that government is our servant, not our master. Lincoln understood that ours is a nation boasting a "government of the people, by the people[, and] for the people." This uniquely American precept, one that sees the power of...

THE GHOST OF CHRISTMAS PAST JEREMIAH WRIGHT RETURNS thelastcrusade.org The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) is drawing criticism for selecting President Barrack Obama’s former pastor as the principal speaker at an awards dinner in Maryland. Perry Ealim, a black businessman who is scheduled to receive an award at the November 20 event, says many of his friends and associates refuse to attend the dinner because Rev. Jeremiah Wright is going to be the speaker. "I am happy for your honor, however, I cannot support an organization that would have a racist/bigot such as Mr. Wright...

Perry Ealim was elated to learn that he had won a local business award from the Anne Arundel County NAACP, and he sent a mass e-mail asking friends and associates, largely fellow Republicans, to join him at the Nov. 20 award ceremony. But most aren't so eager to dine with the evening's guest speaker, the Rev. Jeremiah A. Wright Jr., who is President Obama's controversial former pastor. "I am happy for your honor, however I cannot support an organization that would have a racist/bigot such as Mr. Wright as [its] speaker," wrote James Pelura, chairman of the Maryland Republican Party....

A Toronto-area imam is under fire for using derogatory language against Jews and Christians, calling for Allah to "destroy" the enemies of Islam from within and calling on God to "damn" the "infidels." The address, given last Friday by Imam Saed Rageah at North York's Abu Huraira Centre and then posted on YouTube, is an attack on those who have been calling for a ban on the niqab and burka, both of which cover the faces of women. "Allah protect us from the fitna [sedition] of these people; Allah protect us from the evil agenda of these people; Allah destroy...

Just when you thought it was safe... President Barack Obama has finally shed one radical association -- disgraced former "Green Jobs Czar" Van Jones -- but now another, more familiar one has resurfaced. As viewers saw on FOX News last night, Obama's former pastor, Rev. Jeremiah Wright, wasted little time insinuating himself back into the public eye. You may remember Rev. Jeremiah Wright as the man whose Chicago church Barack Obama attended for many years, and whose most famous sermon, "The Audacity of Hope," lent its title to one of Obama's bestselling books.

For those who thought that the appointment of 9/11 Truther Van Jones was the nadir (so far) for this administration’s moderate, post-partisan credibility, keep in mind that this man could have been in charge of faith-based initiatives if not for Hillary Clinton’s oppo research team. Jeremiah Wright gives hope to Jones and other demagogues tossed under Barack Obama’s bus that the news media will still give them camera time as long as they continue to make the kind of outrageous statements that marginalized them in the first place. Here, Wright gives his nuanced view of the debate over health-care reform...

FOX News All Star Charles Krauthammer compared communist-Truther Van Jones to Obama's pastor and mentor Rev Jeremiah Wright tonight on Special Report. Krauthammer says Van Jones' lunacy is a reflection of the boss:Charles Krauhammer on communist-Truther Green Czar Van Jones: It's a reflection of the boss. The boss also had a history before he became a candidate of being around and friends with the likes of Jeremiah Wright and William Ayers. The liberals scolded us last year on how irrelevant all that is and how it's a smear campaign against Obama. But, if you live in that environment and you...

Here is TMZ video of Rev. Jeremiah Wright at an airport yesterday where he was asked about the "Health Care Bill." He responded: I think the Right Wing is upset because poor people are about to be helped." He also slammed Oprah Winfey saying she is "just an entertainer" who is "not socially conscious," and is therefore not really making an impact. I wonder what Rev. Wright would have said about Van Jones, if asked? (Watch Video)

By PUMA Pundit on September 2, 2009 Remember, the Dept. of Education expects your kids to read books on the life of Barack Obama before the monumental speech on September 8th, well here’s a look at two of the books that shall be used: The first book is aptly titled: Barack Obama: Son of Promise, Child of Hope and here is the description, direct from the Publisher’s Website: Ever since Barack Obama was young, Hope has lived inside him. From the beaches of Hawaii to the streets of Chicago, from the jungles of Indonesia to the plains of Kenya, he...

President Barack Obama needs some outside help pushing health care reform, and he's turning to rabbis to get it. In a morning conference call with about 1000 rabbis from across the nation, Obama asked for aid: "I am going to need your help in accomplishing necessary reform," the President told the group, according to Rabbi Jack Moline, who tweeted his way through the phoner. "We are God's partners in matters of life and death," Obama went on to say, according to Moline's real-time stream. The 15-minute morning briefing was sponsored by the Religion Action Center of Reform Judaism, and included...

Obama Hates the White man ... an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil. – Luke 6:45 Barack Obama hates white people – especially white men. Sorry folks, but the truth will set you free! Why else would Obama falsely accuse Sgt. James Crowley and other Cambridge Police officers of "racial profiling" and claim they "acted stupidly" – creating a national racial controversy? For months, I have said that Barack Obama was elected as a result of white fear (guilt) and black racism. Whites voted for him because of guilt and...

Imagine if, as you chat with your child's first-grade teacher and ask about how he decided to embark on a career in education, he told you, "I walked out of jail and into my first teaching job." Imagine him furthermore telling you that his days in jail and violent protesting were formative to his teaching philosophy. Most parents would have a serious discussion with the principal, at the minimum. But the teacher who brags about such beginnings is now a "Distinguished Professor of Education." Despite his specialty as "Professor of Curriculum and Instruction," he trains future teachers to dispense with...

July 23, 2009 Is Obama Re-Establishing 'Black Street Cred?' C. Edmund Wright Nothing was as surreal about last night's press conference on healthcare as was the mention of the incident at Harvard regarding African American Studies Department Head Professor Gates and the "white cop." Not only did this seem oddly out of place, but it is instructive that the President admitted to both "not knowing the facts" yet obviously he sided with the black professor over the white cop. Allow me to submit the following theory: The President was trying to re-establish his "black street cred" a tad. As we...

Excerpt from The American Thinker Article: Obama, Black Liberation Theology, and Karl MarxMay 28, 2008 Just one nugget from the Sacred Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, "Instruction on Certain Aspects of the ‘Theology of Liberation': "...it would be illusory and dangerous to ignore the intimate bond which radically unites them (liberation theologies), and to accept elements of the marxist analysis without recognizing its connections with the (Marxist) ideology, or to enter into the practice of the class-struggle and of its marxist interpretation while failing to see the kind of totalitarian society to which this process slowly leads."--Joseph Cardinal...

“Gather together those who did wrong and their associates, and what they worshipped Besides Allah, then lead them to the way to hell. And stop them, for they shall be questioned: What is the matter with you that you help not one another? Nay, on that day, they will be submissive.”—Holy Qur'an, Surah 37, verses 22-26 For the last 4,000 years of a 6,000-year cycle of history, the world has been dominated by the Caucasian people or White Race. The other colors from Brown to Yellow to Red, and all other racial mixes coming from the Black man has exerted...

If you've ever wondered why the mainstream media didn't show much curiosity about how 20 years of attending Rev. Jeremiah Wright's church shaped President Barack Obama, there is a perfectly logical explanation. Obama wasn't really there. According to Richard Wolffe, an MSNBC contributor and former Newsweek columnist that covered the Obama presidential campaign for the weekly magazine, people don't have to worry about the rantings and ravings of Obama's controversial preacher having any impact on his world view because he wasn't there. ...more (w/audio)...

Nonsense blurted out last week by two gray-haired public figures made them look like they had lost it. Unfortunately, the Rev. Jeremiah Wright doesn't seem to understand that he's way out of step. "Them Jews ain't going to let him talk to me," Wright told a reporter in Hampton, Va. "They will not let him talk to somebody who calls a spade what it is." Besides being insensitive, Wright's comments reflected a sentiment that could be perceived by some as anti-Semitic. I don't expect Wright to change. He has been on his journey too long. Still, coming from Clout City,...

"Pluralitas non est ponenda sine neccesitate," or "plurality should not be posited without necessity." This principle is known as Occam's Razor, named for the 14th-century English philosopher (William of Occam) who developed it. Basically, it says that hypothetical entities should not be multiplied beyond necessity in explaining a phenomenon, which can be interpreted as meaning that the simplest of competing theories should be preferred to the more complex. After sending yesterday's American Thinker blog piece on Reverend Wright's latest anti-Semitic lecture, I asked this question of my friend who was and is a very strong supporter of Barak Obama. Mike,...

UCC FAILS TO CENSURE JEREMIAH WRIGHT”S RACIST REMARKS Commentary byDr. Paul L. Williams Thelastcrusade.org In a letter to John Thomas, president of the United Church of Christ (UCC), Rev. David Runnion-Bareford, founder of Biblical Witness Fellowship (BWF), called for the mainline Protestant denomination, which includes President Barack Obama as one of its members, to publicly repudiate the anti-Semitic statements which were made this week by Rev. Jeremiah Wright. Mr. Runnion-Bareford’s organization represents a reactionary conservative wing of the UCC, a mainline Protestant denomination with 1.2 million members.Rev.

Keith Ablow, M.D., 47, is a psychiatrist with a medical degree from Johns Hopkins and clinical practices in New York City and Massachusetts... Recently, Ablow has been appearing during short Q & A segments on Glenn Beck's daily show on the Fox News channel (M-F 5-6 PM ET), discussing events in the news from his perspective as a psychiatrist. Some of his past appearances have seemed to me to be unusually on the mark, but the one on June 11, 2009 really caught my attention. In a segment that lasted six minutes, Beck and Ablow discussed anti-Semitic statements made by...

HAMPTON, Virginia - President Barack Obama's controversial former pastor, the Rev. Jeremiah Wright, is blaming "them Jews" for keeping him from speaking to the president. Wright, the former pastor of Chicago's Trinity United Church of Christ, said he hasn't spoken to Obama since he became president. "Them Jews ain't going to let him talk to me. I told my baby daughter that he'll talk to me in five years when he's a lame duck, or in eight years when he's out of office," Wright told the Daily Press of Newport News following a Tuesday night sermon at the 95th annual...

In a racially charged interview, the Rev. Jeremiah Wright said that President Obama hasn't spoken to him since the two parted ways last year, because "them Jews aren't going to let him talk to me." He suggested White House advisers were keeping the two separate. "Them Jews aren't going to let him talk to me. I told my baby daughter, that he'll talk to me in five years when he's a lame duck, or in eight years when he's out of office," he said, according to Virginia's Daily Press. "They will not let him ... talk to somebody who calls...

Binyamin Netanyahu is expected to endorse a “two-state solution” in a much-heralded speech this weekend, but he may stall on American demands to freeze Jewish settlements in the West Bank. Feeling the squeeze between the US Administration, which wants a moratorium on settlement growth and a commitment to a Palestinian state, and his national-religious coalition, which favours neither, the Israeli Prime Minister appears likely to try to steer a middle course. Israeli newspapers were full of speculation about what Mr Netanyahu — who has so far refused openly to back a Palestinian state alongside Israel — might offer to deflect...

Obama’s Ex-Preacher: Jews Blocking Me from White House by Tzvi Ben Gedalyahu (IsraelNN.com) Black anti-Zionist pastor Jeremiah Wright, who once was U.S. President Barack Obama’s personal pastor and officiated at his wedding, blames the Jews from blocking him from even speaking to the president. In an interview with the Virginian Daily Press, Wright stated, "Them Jews aren't going to let him talk to me. I told my baby daughter, that he'll talk to me in five years when he's a lame duck, or in eight years when he's out of office….” The chiefs of staff for the president and for...

According to the Daily Press: Asked if he had spoken to the president, Jeremiah Wright said: "Them Jews aren't going to let him talk to me. I told my baby daughter, that he'll talk to me in five years when he's a lame duck, or in eight years when he's out of office. ... "They will not let him to talk to somebody who calls a spade what it is. ... I said from the beginning: He's a politician; I'm a pastor. He's got to do what politicians do."

WASHINGTON, D.C. - A gunman entered the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum and opened fire, according to reports. Fox News and CNN are reporting a man walked into the museum and shot at a security guard. A second security guard returned fire on the gunman. Fox News is reporting a law enforcement official as saying two people have been shot.

Just interrupted Rush to say that three people had been shot outside the Holocaust Museum in Washington DC.

An 89-year-old white supremacist who has long ranted against Jews started a firefight inside Washington's somber and well-secured Holocaust Museum on Wednesday afternoon. The gunman, James Von Brunn, shot and critically wounded a guard and was then shot by museum guards, law enforcement officials said. Von Brunn, whose Web site is full of anti-government and anti-Semitic rants, was sentenced to 11 years in prison for carrying guns into the Federal Reserve in 1981....

An elderly gunman exchanged fire with security guards inside the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum on Wednesday. One security guard and the gunman were taken to a hospital with life-threatening injuries. Law enforcement officials identified the suspect as James Wenneker von Brunn, 88, from the Eastern Shore of Maryland, NBC News reported. NBC said he may have had connections to hate groups or anti-government groups....

The Daily Press in Newport News, Virginia interviewed Rev. Jeremiah Wright as he appeared in nearby Hampton for a ministers conference. He said of Barack Obama: "Of course I voted for him; he's my son. I'm proud of him," Wright said. "I've got five biological kids. They all make mistakes and bad choices. I haven't stopped loving any of them." Then there’s this, perhaps a reference to Jewish Obama aides like David Axelrod and Rahm Emanuel: Asked if he had spoken to the President, Wright said: "Them Jews aren't going to let him talk to me. I told my baby...

I spend a lot of time arguing about the fact Obama may be a Muslim, I always get this response, So what? Whats a good come back?

Is it possible that as brilliant as our Founding Fathers were, perchance they gave us a little too much credit? Notwithstanding their sagacity, the Founders likely never envisaged a scenario in which the American people would elect a Commander in Chief who is a national security risk. Numerous government positions require some level of security screening, as do sensitive jobs in the private sector involving certain types of government contracts. The job of President of the United States, regrettably, does not require any level of security clearance. The process of applying for a national security clearance starts with the Questionnaire...

WASHINGTON – President Barack Obama on Friday personally sought to deflect criticism of Supreme Court nominee Sonia Sotomayor, who finds herself under intensifying scrutiny for saying in 2001 that a female Hispanic judge would often reach a better decision than a white male judge. "I'm sure she would have restated it," Obama flatly told NBC News, without indicating how he knew that. The quote in question from Sotomayor has emerged as a rallying call for conservative critics who fear she will offer opinions from the bench based less on the rule of law and more on her life experience, ethnicity...

Rev. Jeremiah Wright Jr. and Bill Ayers paired up Sunday to lead community activists, clergy, and residents in Oak Park, Illinois on an annual walk to rally for a solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. The two drew over 400 people to a forum before the walk held at the First United Church of Oak Park and urged a new perspective on the Mideast conflict more in line with the President’s. According to the Tribune, The Committee for a Just Peace in Israel and Palestine, the organizers of the event, said Ayers and Wright were invited for their work on the...

Obama and theology of liberation Exclusive: Hilmar von Campe revisits Rev. Jeremiah Wright's relationship with president -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Posted: May 04, 2009 1:00 am Eastern -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The naïve American public and their dumb political leaders believe that Barack Hussein Obama has cleared his past with leaving the Trinity United Church of Christ in Chicago and stating that he has severed "outraged" and "insulted" his relation with the then senior pastor of that church. In reality, however, this close relationship of 20 years, which I don't think is broken, makes clear who he is and where his philosophy is rooted. When you...

Activism…when one or several special interest groups are given an exclusive voice, when all other voices are continuously dismissed or devalued, the cause of freedom and equality is lost and tyranny gains a strong foothold. In America this eventuality should invoke alarm, but in today’s politically correct environment dissenting voices are easily dismissed as the extreme fringe. In the absence of honorable gate keeping, the media and activism emerge as a force to be confronted and deterred.

WASHINGTON (AP) - President Barack Obama paid tribute Thursday to the memory of Jews murdered in the Holocaust and said it is the duty of the living all over the world to make certain there will be no more atrocities. Speaking at a Holocaust Days of Remembrance ceremony at the U.S. Capitol, Obama warned against what he called the dangers of silence. Every day, he said, people should fight the impulse to turn away when scenes of horror unfold across the world. He called for people to embrace a "habit of empathy." "We know," the president said, "that evil has...

Obama “This is a church that I have been a member of for 20 years.” “This helps explain perhaps my relationship with Reverend Wright, as imperfect as he may be he has been like family to me, he strengthens my faith, officiated my wedding, and baptised my children.”

A few weeks ago, the Obama administration made it clear to the world, that they do not consider people like Bin Laden, or organizations like Al Qaeda, Hezbollah, Islamic Jihad or Hamas, to be “terrorists” and went so far as to rename the international “war on terror,” the “overseas contingency operation,” so as not to further offend any of these folks. Then, his Department of Homeland Security issued a new “terror report” redefining “terrorists” to include legal American citizens openly opposed to illegal immigration, abortion, socialism, and people who trample on their First, Second, Ninth and Tenth Amendment Rights, aka,...
