Presidential candidate Barack Obama preaches on the campaign trail that America needs a new consensus based on faith and bipartisanship, yet he continues to attend a controversial Chicago church whose pastor routinely refers to "white arrogance" and "the United States of White America."
In fact, Obama was in attendance at the church when these statements were made on July 22. .....

Its simple, Black Racism and America Hatred is fine and dandy
Note that the Obama campaign has now pulled a Stalin and disappeared Reverend Wright from their website and other outlets.
A Republican would never get away with this, but Obama can count on the cooperation of the media-industrial complex in burying the issue. Yesterday I spoke to a leading local liberal. He is an Obama supporter and president of the local ACLU. He claimed that he had never heard of the Wright uproar and asked me if it had been in "reputable" (ie lefty approved) media or just right-wing blogs. I think his ignorance was real. The MSM's complicity in concealing the Wright association is obvious, and makes alternate media like Newsmax all the more important.
it's NOT about" race" it's about HATRED,stupidity & inbred, UNthinking, PREJUDICE!
free dixie,sw
I for one am done with this politically motivated imposed guilt for their fictitious oppression. Race hustlers themselves have self interest at heart instead of helping their fellow human beings....
I think that he very often sounds like a southern tent preacher. The first time that I heard him speak at the Dem convention in 2004, that was my reaction, a southern con artist minister. The article also mentions that Wright often accompanies Obama on the campaign trail and was there with him in Selma when he did that very good imitation of a tent preacher.
If you read this whole article, you’ll see that the slant of the article is not intended to be negative, but rather a justification of Obama’s relationship to Wright. Wright gave Obama his connection to the Black community and taught him how to relate to them.
Obama has taken what he wants from Wright’s teachings and thinks that he can leave the rest, but he needs to tell us what he takes and what he leaves.
I have often heard it said some of his stump speeches themselves are gospel revivalist in nature. Why one speech and not the next or the one after????
Can you imagine the MSM not trying to interview (ad nauseum) members of a white church like that attended by a white candidate--to see if that kind of hatred was spewed on a regular basis????
If Wight's sickening comments were spoken when the camera was 'on'--just imagine what he must say when the camera is 'off'!!!
It appears that many of Wright's 'so-called sermons'are,,,,,
HARDLY "ELOQUENT BUT EMPTY"!!!
You cannot sit and listen to someone spew hate week after week for 20 years and not have it affect you. It affected his wife too. She did say that "for the first time in my life I am proud of my country." She tried to say that was misspeak, but since the information broke about Wright, it's apparent that she hates America too, white America to be exact, just like Obama and Wright do!
When Wright says "god damn america" he is just telling it like it is. His "god" is the "god" of this world. Satan! Wright has really been an eye opener to me. It's no wonder that so many black kids kill each other. Since this is what their pastors say, it's no wonder they're so screwed up. I used to think if the only went to church that they might be different, but after listening to so many black "preachers" spew their hatred from the pulpit, THAT is the last place I would want those kids to go! God will spew those "preachers" out of His mouth!
“adherence to the black work ethic”
That’s pretty easy, sit around and don’t do Jack!! Believe me I’ve worked with’em.
Think I'll be discreminated against?
Blacks better not look too closely - it might ruin the hate fest they got goin'...
Bull$hit!! You don't spend 20 years in a relationship with someone, call the person your mentor, ask him to serve on your campaign's religious committee, or meet privately with him prior to announcing your candidacy for President, without having had "thorough conversations" about politics with the man. And with a relationship of that kind, you also know what is in the man's heart and soul.
Ping!
Imagine the Republicans coming this close to nominating a presidential candidate who is a Klansman, or a member of the World Church of the Creator, or a member of a church whose pastor says, "God Hates Fags." Mix in a Harvard Law degree, a wardrobe full of $2000 suits, a private jet and a crooked fundraiser like Tony Rezko.
Imagine the screaming and finger-pointing. We would never hear the end of it until that candidate's political career was completely destroyed. Simply preventing him from reaching the White House wouldn't be good enough for those people. His career would have to be completely and utterly destroyed, as thoroughly as Eliot Spitzer's career has been destroyed.
But when an African-American does the equivalent, they keep a lid on it until they just can't keep a lid on it any more. Then they shrug and wonder what all the fuss is about.
How's that for pathetic, phoney, transparent 'verbal gymnastics'???..lol (Even Slick was probably 'rolling his eyes' at that one!)
P.S. Does that mean that they DID agree on MOST things?
Being there for these sermons and having a very close 20 year relationship with this man and this church cannot be excused with a simple “now I see the light and repudiate it” statement.
If this represents his worldview, then he is disqualified as a candidate for president.
