Read my post again. My point is that most people can understand English and we know what the Reverend Wright said.

I asked you, are you a Reverend Wright apologist? Did you sign up on here to defend the racist?

Is English YOUR first language? I’m trying to figure what you don’t like about the post from Hewitt’s web site.

Why are you busting ugly on the poster?

Lay off LJayne. You are reading Hugh Hewitt’s words and taking issue with them. LJayne was just posting Hewitt’s words. Take issue with Hewitt if you want, or if you think
that makes sense. And we’re all too familiar with the “gotcha, Newbie” type of aggression we see in your post. Do your homework before you go after someone.

Get a grip. This is a valid and topical post. Lay off the poster. Sometimes it’s better to read the article before getting square in someone’s face.

Ya gonna bust my chops cause I’ve only been around since 2001?

Yes, but what's the likelihood that Wright's own congregants can understand English, and therefore know what he said? ;-)

So, you see, Ingram didn’t read all of the sermon and you haven’t read Wright’s five books so you don’t have the ‘context’ or the qualifications to discuss this. (DugwayDuke)

What's the likehood that Wright's congregants can read five books (or, rather, read ... period) and therefore can understand the context. ;-)

Ok, seriously now ... Wright is a problem-profiteering (per the Booker T. Washington definition, ref: his nice big new McMansion) demagague. My guess is that Wright's own congregation doesn't bother to listen to a fraction of what he spews. They just get caught up in/seduced by all the animated oratory, theatrics, etc associated with his sermons. Sort of like how many Germans responded to Hitler's speeches back in the 30ths, without having read Mein Kampf (note: I am in no way drawing any sort of moral or scope comparison between true evil like Hitler and the Nazis and two-bit carnival barkers like Wright - just using the well-known example of the Nurnberg rallies to illustrate my point)

One neat thing that Hannity or someone could do is one of those "man on the street" interview series where they stand outside of Wright's church and try to see if the congregants could answer questions about the content of what they just heard.
