Obama's Pastor: God Damn America, U.S. to Blame for 9/11
Sen. Barack Obama's pastor says blacks should not sing "God Bless America" but "God damn America".
The Rev. Jeremiah Wright, Obama's pastor for the last 20 years at the Trinity United Church of Christ on Chicago's south side, has a long history of what even Obama's campaign aides concede is "inflammatory rhetoric," including the assertion that the United States brought on the 9/11 attacks with its own "terrorism."
In a campaign appearance earlier this month, Sen. Obama said, "I don't think my church is actually particularly controversial." He said Rev. Wright "is like an old uncle who says things I don't always agree with," telling a Jewish group that everyone has someone like that in their family.
Rev. Wright married Obama and his wife Michelle, baptized their two daughters and is credited by Obama for the title of his book, "The Audacity of Hope."

Not being a church-going person, I really don’t understand the relationship between people and their pastors. To me, a mentor is someone you quote, act like, keep in close proximity to, etc. I haven’t followed Mr. Obama much, but the little I have seen or heard from him, doesn’t show to me that he sees him as his mentor.
Notice how osama obama uses damage control. If a Caucasian candidate had a close mentor and pastor that pulled this crap, he/she would have to resign in an instant. Anybody remember the Trent Lott affair?
I know I couldn’t, but I don’t go to church, and I don’t know what motivates others or what is preached in churches that have exclusive patrons. I don’t even know if he attends regularly.
This guy is a real peach! Whats worse is white liberals agree with him! but then they hate America too!
That is just scary!
Conservative need to post that all over the Internet. I know people that were big Obama supporters that have changed their minds because of that and a few other videos of his preacher.
If I ran Hillary’s campaign I would adopt the slogan, “Vote for Hillary! Hey, at least she’s the Devil You Know.”
“How does that change anything?”
I know strong supporters of Obama that have changed their mind after seeing this video and a few others of this preacher. This is the church that Obama takes his children to. It’s a church filled with hate.
. . .Well, we know that ‘uncle’ Obama refers to, is not named ‘Tom’. Nope, not in that church.
If any candidate on the right was even remotely connected at any time to a whack job racist like this, they would be gone in a New York minute! This is an outrage that this black hate monger preacher now sits on one of Obama’s advisory committees!!......B.S. to Obama!
Amen!
First > ship > back > to > africa >>>
Amen.
Hillary began her career defending guys like this (the Panthers in New Haven)
If she weren’t running against Obumble, she’d probably be stumping for him.
They worship a false god, I don’t care what our lickspittle theologians say.
The blatant racism being displayed by a large portion of black America is driving the media crazy!
They continue to tell the press face to face that they are giving their vote to Obama because he is black.
I find the whole thing comical because I am a lover of the truth. It’s just refreshing to see them freely admit that they are racists.
And then the funniest thing of all, the icing on the cake, the amazing irony, of Geraldine Ferraro saying it out loud, and having to apologize, and step down......
I will soon post the youtube video of this ABCNews breaking story.

As a member of this church for 20 years I would love to know how much of his tithe he has claimed for tax deductions.
His pastor is a bitter hater. It is easy to see where Michelle is coming from.
