"God Damn America" indeed. It's because of the faux-patriotism and hyper-nationalism that is forced down the throats of all Americans that you can't seriously address some of the fundamental problems with the country without being ripped apart by the media. The US isn't the wonderful, shining city on the hill that most of you think it is. Rev. Wright is 100% correct in his assertions... But how dare a "black man" speak up ... Racism is alive and well in 21st century America.

Can someone explain how any of this person's screed has ANYTHING to do with racism? I've heard this same kind of thing from white Americans as from the Rev. here. If I disagree with white people who say this is that still racist or is it only racist when one disagrees with a person of color? I'm just trying to make sure I understand this week's politically correct rules.

Don't bother, just take my cue: I only criticize the half of Barak that's white.

You know, I thought Erica Jong died some time ago.

I mean, doesn’t she date back from, well, quite a ways back?
