Now any hate-monger, it seems, can go on a public racist rant...

By now no one is surprised by what is said by a Rev. Wright ("KKK of A", Israel is a "dirty word", etc.) or a Rev. Meeks ("white people" as "slave-masters"), or that they have figured prominently among Obama supporters.

Now the latest is apparently Rev. Eric Lee ("What other kind of Rabbis are there, but Jews?" "The Jews have made money on us in the music business and we are the entertainers, and they are economically enslaving us.'"), one of the designated co-sponsors of a Feb., 2008 "Obama—Get Out and Vote Rally" in Los Angeles, who on April 4th went on a public unhinged anti-Semitic rant about Daphna Ziman, the recipient of the Tom Bradley award.

The point is not to what degree Rev. Lee is directly involved in the Obama campaign (the usual official distancing will follow), but rather three other considerations:

First, once Obama failed to condemn Wright and offered contextualization, the flood gates of extremism were thrown wide open. Now any hate-monger, it seems, can go on a public racist rant, with the expectation that there will be no credible and absolute public condemnation. You see, our potential next President has already weighed in on Rev. Wright's hate speech by citing his past good works, the commonality of such talk among all our religious figures, the special nature of the black church, and the unfair snippets that are replayed—all of which, of course, will offer the same "context" of mitigation for the Eric Lee hatred. We can imagine the accolades to come in the next few days concerning Lee's public benefactions.

Hey now, let's not be bad-mouthing the Rev. Wright. This esteemed ‘Intellectual’ and ‘Theologian’ has been selected as the Keynote Speaker at the Detroit NAACP Convention. See my post;

I watched this lady’s comments and she came off like another patronizing liberal racist: ‘we were so thrilled to have the African-American black people there. We need them. Look how I’m helping the underpriveleged urban children.’ This tension between the African-American and Jewish communities has existed since the 60’s and she is a throwback to those times. This in no way excuses the anti-semitism exhibited. Just observing the liberal pre-occupation with race.

He's just a typical black preacher....

I suppose this means that what we can expect from four years of President Obama is African-American grievance groups finally seeing their best chance in years to get some real attention for their pet causes and demands.

Oh, this oughtta be something.

"I also stand by my second prognosis—that in Obama we are witnessing the slow formation of a McGovern candidacy, a disaster to come that won’t be fully appreciated by now starry-eyed Democrats until September or October when, as in 1972, it will be too late."

I agree.

The bad news is that we're stuck with McCain.

“The Jews have made money on us in the music business and we are the entertainers”

That’s gratitude!

They called your music “oga-bugie” “Jungle” and N****R music, you couldn’t even get a cup of coffee, in the very places you now freely “entertain” at.

So some evil Jewish promoters came along — and believed in you — and took a chance — and the rest is history!

Entertain that!

Let the racists speak. That way we will know who the morons are and can watch them closely.....

If people would have listened to Hitler maybe history would’ve been different.
