[Mount Athos]

I think it is important to mention the *congregation* of Obama’s church, not just Wright. Obama says that when Wright chanted “GOD DAMN AMERICA”, it was totally out of character for him and that he never heard things like that in church, he would have walked out in disgust if he heard it.

If that was true, you would expect the entire church to wince in horror when he repeatedly says God Damn America. But look at the video, the entire congregation is CHEERING. They also cheer in other sermons when he says things like how AIDS was invented by whites to mass murder blacks, and so on. This is the church Obama belonged to for 20 years, and money and praise to.

I believe that all of those original cuts of Wright, including the "G D America", were off of a DVD that the Church itself was selling as, "The Best of Reverend Wright". Says it all if it is true...but clearly, from the tapes themselves you see people rejoicing, clapping, and even clapping the Rev. on the shoulder as he said these things.

It is who they are, it is the church they attend, and it is the theology/ideology they follow. Including Obama and his wife who are raising their children in it.
