OBAMA WAS ON THE COVER OF REVEREND WRIGHT'S TRUMPET MAGAZINE (THREE TIMES) http://www.trumpetmag.com/pdf/mediakit_sept07/MediaKit2008High.pdf

"Our church has been supporting the Steve Biko Institute in Bahia for several years now and we got to visit the students and the staff of the Steve Biko Institute. Their understanding of freedom, liberation and breaking the chains that bind us mentally is a far cry from the average bourgeois Negro who lives in the suburbs of Chicago! They could not understand our having African Americans in Chicago who did not understand their struggle or participate with them in their struggle!"
Trying to shore up his base, obviously. Don’t think it will save PA for him, though... Just MHO.
...becoming the voice for all Africans living in the Diaspora.
...articles that speak directly to the unique experience of being African in the North American Diaspora.
...articles that educate African Americans about Africans on the continent and in other parts of the African Diaspora.
From Wikipedia: The term diaspora (in Ancient Greek, διασπορά ÃÂ "a scattering or sowing of seeds") refers to any people or ethnic population forced or induced to leave their traditional homelands, the dispersal of such people, and the ensuing developments in their culture.
Their "Mission Statement" includes this: By highlighting journalistic issues that impact, address and speak to shared human experiences and beliefs in a racially oppressive society,...
No one is forced to stay here in AMERICA. If it's so bad and he's so oppressed, then go back to Africa and take your hate with you.
Good idea.
Thanks for the ping OK - hope all is well with you.
Melodie Morgan comments about Bob Beckels comments in the Fox News Green Room re Wright and Hussein.
Bob Beckel was steamed.
Later, I asked him why he was so upset.
He replied ..."because Obamas people didnt vet him and now Hillarys going to win.
Catch that?
A senior Democrat strategist thinks that Obama has lost the campaign over his association with Reverend Jeremiah Wrights militant separatist language that includes statements like God Damn America. ...."
Just What Did Obama Know About Wright's Past Sermons? (Plenty)
Barack Obama either agreed with what was preached from the Trinity pulpit, or he tuned it out and stayed around pretending to for political reasons. To say he stayed for 20 years but doesn't agree with Wright's preaching is incredible denial. It'd be like a man buying White Sox season tickets for 20 years, attending the games, and saying he's not a fan.
Obamas supporters want us to ignore this story just push it under the rug. While theyll align Republicans with any obscure pastor who does or says something controversial, theyre trying to convince us that Obamas 20-year long close relationship with Wright, including his effective endorsement of him, his church and rhetoric with a $22,500 donation in 2006 is irrelevant.
When Obama decided against wearing an American flag pin, we may all have been a bit too quick to accept his rationale, too quick to find that issue unimportant. Now, that American flag pin has gotten a lot bigger for a lot of us, especially in light of what may have been and may still be Obamas deeper, and, perhaps, secret, less than patriotic beliefs about America.
Wright says that blacks cant be expected to sing God Bless America because of racism. Obama doesnt salute the flag during the National Anthem. That sure strikes me as an amazing coincidence since Obama swears he never heard Wright say anything against America.
Thanks.
When bad news gets out, someone always wants to blame the messenger.
Except when Newt Gingrich’s phone calls were listened in on, maybe.
A very good point.
Fact is, Wright and those like him don’t give a damn about the sacrifices white people have made FOR THEM.
As long as they can sashay up to the cash register with $200 worth of groceries in their cart, and slide through their welfare card for free food, they’ll continue to say “God Damn America!”
Whoa... check out Grampa Dave’s post #86!
Morris Dees, the child molester?
Great post Grampa Dave!
Bump to your links~
Barack condemning the Reagan coalition as being race based really pissed me off. I guess the Rev. would have liked to be living under Communism.
Thank God that Barack HUSSEIN has been unmasked in time.
He is the most anti-American, dangerous person ever to run for the Presidency of the U.S.A.
Marxist to the core; Black Power advocate; acolyte of the Rev. Jeremiah Wright.
Hussein, we know your game!
Thanks.
Barack Hussein showed his true colors (pardon me!) in his speech today. he believes what Wright and Michelles have told him to believe!
I just can’t believe he is more anti-American than Hillary, now, really...
