I’m only half listening, but Jeremiah Wright seems to be attacking Boston accents — and the Kennedys in particular.

The Swimmer's not going to like that...;)

Well said, MOgirl. I’ve recently began to feel the same way. It’s very sad.

“we do be immigrants...”

That's when I turned it off for the last time. I don't know about you, but I'm not an immigrant. Anyone who says this is a "nation of immigrants" needs to be slapped, and that includes W.

You have hit the nail on the head, my friend.

Did you read the deal about Obama brushing off his shoulder last week in a diss to Hillary Clinton and an homage to the rap/hip-hop culture?

And you are soooo right about this:

I THINK REV. WRIGHT IS SIGNALING THE TAKING OF “DISSING” TO A NEW LEVEL. He’s not just taking on our music. Our education. Our speech. Our religion. HE IS TAKING ON WESTERN CIVILIZATION ITSELF (sound familiar?).

Like the jihadists, Wright and his cohorts will next say “Why should we respect your laws...based on the Magna Carta and YOUR understanding of right and wrong?”. Make no mistake, this is an attack on the very foundations of our civilization.

Every single pundit on both Fox and CNN are clearly for Wright and Obama.

I think Rev. Wright only lucked out because the speech came on during Geraldo's time slot...had it been Julie Banderas, it would be a different review.

Ken Blackwell explains to Glenn Beck...

Ken, explain what Black Liberation Theology is.

BLACKWELL: Well, first let me put it in an even broader context, Glenn. This is a global movement. It is well over 50 years old. It was manifested, it has been manifested in liberation movements, Marxist insurrections across the globe, most notably in Latin America and in Africa. This is a domestic form of liberation theology, given a African-American vein. Liberation theology is a belief system about liberal agendas. It is socially socialistic and economic policy, it’s belief in wealth distribution. The proponents of liberation theology like Reverend Wright says that God commands us to form government that will supervise our economy to create government subsidized jobs under central government planning, guaranteed healthcare and education by having government control both.

BLACKWELL: Look. Glenn, liberation theology teaches that Jesus Christ came to be a political revolutionary. They teach that biblical phrases such as the Messiah coming to, quote, set the captives free speaks to changing forms of government to aid the downtrodden, not — they don’t speak about this in terms of spiritual freedom through a relationship, an individual relationship with God. Liberation theology has been cited by political insurrectionists and both by leaders of revolution again for the past half century or longer.

BLACKWELL: And I’ll tell you what happens is, you know, a lot of folks confuse, you know, churches that have a mission toward social justice, clearly folks, that that’s the same thing as doctrine of liberation theology. That’s just not the case.

“Oprah should be offended.”

Yes she should. Her success was through hard work and determination and living in the greatest country in the world. In one of his sermons Jeremiah Wright put down
Ophra, Colen Powell, and Condi. I guess he did that because they happen to be very successful rich Americans!

Meanwhile- Geraldo went on to describe yet another awful shooting today in Chicago- a minister was killed while trying to protect someone else (I think I heard it was a child) from the gunfire...

I heard that, too. Tragic, yet ironic.

Hello,

That is exactly how I feel. Perhaps the idea that if we got past race, that they would welcome getting past race was not possible?

This has set back race relations more decades than I can count. And I am so deeply saddened by that, as I now, and have alway believed in Dr. Martin Luther King, when he said he dreamed for the day that each child would be judged by their character, not by the color of their skin. It was a nice dream, but it's not going to happen any time soon.

The CNN analysts are a joke...All of them squarly in the Obama camp. Their bias fools no one and enrages many.

Wright — more an apostle of the left than the Christian church —

Sadly enough, the feeble minded don't see this as a truism.

Dark and lonely on a summer’s night.
Kill my landlord. Kill my landlord.
Watchdog barking. Do he bite?
Kill my landlord. Kill my landlord.
Slip in his window. Break his neck.
Then his house I start to wreck.
Got no reason. What the heck?
Kill my landlord. Kill my landlord.
C-I-L my land lord!

Thank you, Eddie Murphy and SNL!

Glad you heard the speech MOg. Though glad may be the wrong word, you know?

I wonder if Jeremiah Wright has any idea of the damage he’s done to the cause he espouses to love so much? I simply cannot believe he imagines this kind of talk can help heal and bring us closer as a country.

He sickens and enrages me so that I must pray for him.

Dr. Wendell Anthony is just as bad if not worse than Rev. Wright. CNN calls Anthony and Wright "courageous men" tonight.

Why the use of the word "courageous" if the message was so innocent?

That bit about people with different accents not being criticized for their English was ridiculous. ("Only the black child is told he speaks bad English.")
