2 Points...
Re: Oprah, when she started her satellite radio show, she was talking with her g/f and told a story about how when she was little she helped clean white peoples houses. And something to the effect that look at her now. Whatever it was(don’t remember exactly)the comments section were full of warnings to her that her base is mostly white and comments like that surely wouldn’t help her. I never knew she was a part of this racist church.
Other point...
I still think he is Muslim. Otherwise we would here about his being an apostate(sp). Isn’t it death to all that leave Islam. Why the free pass. Why NO comments/statement from Muslim leaders. They are actually silent on this. When I mentioned this to my b/f he said he believed he wasn’t a muslim because everyone says he isn’t. I tried to explain Takiyah (lying to the infidels (us)) etc. He wasn’t buying it. Has CAIR said anything at all about our BOH.

[Timeout]

Actually, I believe ABC’s Brian Ross was the first to put out the videos.

[LiveFreeOrDie2001]

Perhaps Pastor Wright retired since BHO is running for President...?

[Travis McGee]

Amen WD. We’ve known for months, and only now the PCers are having the ice water thrown in their faces.

[Stentor]

Alter says Wright has a reputation as a very intellectual preacher

He's about as intellectual as a wart hog.

[jhw61]

Too precious...when you compare the “thugs” to our fine, mature and patriotic men and women who have given their lives for the Precious freedom we love and cherish each and every day...there really is no comparison...when I pass them on the streets of America...I sigh, breath deeply and thank the Lord that within his heart and soul...real men and women LOVE America! and I acknowledge the difference.

[Ernest_at_the_Beach]

Might be Foxnews playing the videos....

[Miss Didi]

One more week...be strong!

[Dinah Lord]

You know I believe you are correct in that - I heard about it but wouldn’t go near ABC with a ten foot pole.

Hah-hah.

[silentreignofheroes]

Who in their right mind could go somewhere for 20 years and not know what’s going on., Noboby will believe it , though I think in a week or so we’ll see the results of this in the streets. It will grow from there,that’s my thought.

[airborne]

I understand what you (and Rush) have in mind.

But I won’t be switching. I’m not voting for a Dem.

I’ll wait until the last minute to decide if I’ll vote for McCain in the general election. If it’s close, I’ll vote Republican. Otherwise, I’d rather not have to vote for McCain, if I don’t absolutely have to.

[pepperhead]

Speaking of Tucker Carlson, he had his last show on MSNBC today.

[Fishtalk]

I’m wondering the same thing.

See, this is the kind of thing the ladies at the beauty parlor are going to notice. Those sight and sound bytes of the lovely Pastor Wright are going to be noticed by everyone. This is not just about an elusive Rezko figure that most folks don’t understand and anyway all politicians are creeps with creepy friends. With Wright we got what the public will see and hear...a nut job screaming racist rants, crazy crap...almost right out of the movies.

So I think Obama’s favoritism ratings will just drop and drop....I can’t see anyway he’s going to get beyond this. The jury of the American people will find him guilty. And as all political campaigns do, the polls will be watched and soon the money will dry up and soon Obama will ...I guess he’ll hang in there but somehow, someway, Hill’s going to get the nomination. Hey the superdelagates now have a valid reason NOT to vote for Obama and you may argue amongst yourselves that this might have been part of somebody’s plan.

Then it will be Hill versus McCain in the general election and Hillary will win. Because McCain, in the next seven months...he’s going to screw up. He’s going to loose his temper. Even now almost every time he opens his mouth he offends someone. The conservatives might hold noses and vote for him but there’s a demoralyzing factor in his candidacy and I think it’s going to cost the pubs.

So....Hill will be the next President.

Now I think it’s entirely possible here, and I’ll throw it out there, that another THIRD candidate might come up from nowhere.

Well let me think some more about it.

But if Hill wins, her presidency will be so horrible and with American having come so close to electing, indeed almost crowning him king, a blatant anti-American....quasi-Muslim, and with a GOP chastened by their ridiculous McCain nomination....
...hey, maybe we’ll finally get a decent nominee/president.

But I’m just typing off the top of my head.

[hole_n_one]

If so, I must have been filling up another bowl of popcorn at the time.

I'll have to catch the late night re-airing.

Obama blames 60’s for pastor’s comments.

[Girlene]

And it’s not like this was “hidden camera” footage. If I understand correctly, these were sermons selected by the church for sale as a sort of “best of” collection. And Obama didn’t know what they contained?

Why do you think his campaign staff tried to minimize his pastor's influence by convincing Obama to cancel his pastor's invocation at his presidential bid announcement? They'd caught enough of the jist of his philosophy in his "sermons".

[Travis McGee]

Were you smoking crack when you were watching these interviews? Or are you just a contrarian who likes to stir things up? As for Wright’s leading Obama to Christ, one has to ask “what kind of Christ was he leading him to”? I’d never give Fred Phelps credit for bringing anyone to Christ.

Wright's church is pretty close to the black version of those White Aryan Nations "Christian Identity" so-called churches.

Swap black and white, Europe and Africa in Wright's speeches, that's all you need to do.

Putting "Christ" or "Christian" in the name of a racist hate group does not make it a religious group.

[Sunnyflorida]

Great tagline.

I’m not voting for McCain. Our only hope is a disruptive Senate and with McCain we will get Amnesty. That is my top issue. If this becomes Northern Mexico we are lost for good.

[Travis McGee]

Hmmm, now how does it sound?

"We are a congregation which is Unashamedly White and Unapologetically Christian... Our roots in the White religious experience and tradition are deep, lasting and permanent. We are an European people, and remain “true to our native land,” the mother continent, the cradle of civilization."

[Miss Didi]

Don-o, believe it or not Brian Ross of ABC started it yesterday (Clinton Inc. made a call). Fox started covering the story (well, Hannity has been consistent) yesterday and today—Brit, the Friends, O’Reilly, etc. Add in Rush and the talkers...plus the vids on YouTube. Voila’! Barry had to come out and make a media tour tonight.
