Trinity United Church of Christ is building Barack Obama's controversial former pastor a million-dollar Tinley Park home complete with an elevator, whirlpool, butler's pantry, circular driveway and four-car garage, building plans show.

The four-bedroom home being built for the Rev. Jeremiah Wright is in the Odyssey Club neighborhood, which boasts some of Tinley Park's largest homes and a mix of town homes. It backs up to the Odyssey Country Club and golf course.

See link for the full story.

I suggest that you identify a subset of the population with a shared psychopathology and then found a cult to exploit it. Not that there seems to be anything wrong with that.

“Rev” Wright’s chickens have found a REALLY nice place to roost.

Everyone should read the comments after the story. There were some good ones, including the person who said some of his tax money probably went to pay public assistance for the people who paid into the church.

Also, one person mentioned that a house in that neighborhood ought to cost more than $1 million, and that something was fishy about it.

Then there were the usual blind, idiots who said Rev. Wright was speaking the truth and was a saint. How deluded can people be?

Interesting website that gives details of the financial transactions.

It appears that the home occupied by the Rev up to now was no shack.

>3900 sq ft, .38 acre, @585.000.

Also in the information is mention of a Trinity Landscape and [something] corporation; President: Jeremiah A Wright, same address as Trinity UCC.

I think this “rev” is as sleazy as they come.
I also think that his “neighborhood” connections are what launched Barry into the world of Chicago politics.

Thanks for the information and the link. He wouldn’t be the first shyster to take advantage of the poor and ignorant and he won’t be the last. *sigh*

Thank you! I guess I am not a bigot, on both accounts. Actually I knew it ;-). But as all folks, I have my prejudices.
