The Rev. Jeremiah Wright taunted a gathering of journalists Monday in Washington, D.C., calling their coverage of his speeches an attack on the black church, while defending his claim that the U.S. was responsible for the terrorist attacks of 9/11.
Wright, the controversial former pastor of Barack Obama’s church, took dead aim at the U.S. government Monday — saying American soldiers in Iraq have died “over a lie” and calling the war “unjust” — as he called for reconciliation and understanding between blacks and whites.

Has anyone seen “Rev.” Wright and Karl Rove together at the same time?

"Show me just what Mohammed brought that was new, and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached." - Manuel II Palelologus
Jeremiah is this kind of person. Peter’s insight and warning from nearly 2000 years ago echoes powerfully today:
2 Peter 2
False Prophets and Their Punishment
But false prophets also arose among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you, who will secretly bring in destructive opinions. They will even deny the Master who bought them—bringing swift destruction on themselves. 2Even so, many will follow their licentious ways, and because of these teachers* the way of truth will be maligned. 3And in their greed they will exploit you with deceptive words. Their condemnation, pronounced against them long ago, has not been idle, and their destruction is not asleep.
4 For if God did not spare the angels when they sinned, but cast them into hell* and committed them to chains* of deepest darkness to be kept until the judgement; 5and if he did not spare the ancient world, even though he saved Noah, a herald of righteousness, with seven others, when he brought a flood on a world of the ungodly; 6and if by turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah to ashes he condemned them to extinction* and made them an example of what is coming to the ungodly;* 7and if he rescued Lot, a righteous man greatly distressed by the licentiousness of the lawless 8(for that righteous man, living among them day after day, was tormented in his righteous soul by their lawless deeds that he saw and heard), 9then the Lord knows how to rescue the godly from trial, and to keep the unrighteous under punishment until the day of judgement 10—especially those who indulge their flesh in depraved lust, and who despise authority.
11 Bold and wilful, they are not afraid to slander the glorious ones,* 11whereas angels, though greater in might and power, do not bring against them a slanderous judgement from the Lord.* 12These people, however, are like irrational animals, mere creatures of instinct, born to be caught and killed. They slander what they do not understand, and when those creatures are destroyed,* they also will be destroyed, 13suffering* the penalty for doing wrong. They count it a pleasure to revel in the daytime. They are blots and blemishes, revelling in their dissipation* while they feast with you. 14They have eyes full of adultery, insatiable for sin. They entice unsteady souls. They have hearts trained in greed. Accursed children! 15They have left the straight road and have gone astray, following the road of Balaam son of Bosor,* who loved the wages of doing wrong, 16but was rebuked for his own transgression; a speechless donkey spoke with a human voice and restrained the prophet’s madness.
17 These are waterless springs and mists driven by a storm; for them the deepest darkness has been reserved. 18For they speak bombastic nonsense, and with licentious desires of the flesh they entice people who have just* escaped from those who live in error. 19They promise them freedom, but they themselves are slaves of corruption; for people are slaves to whatever masters them.
20For if, after they have escaped the defilements of the world through the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again entangled in them and overpowered, the last state has become worse for them than the first. 21For it would have been better for them never to have known the way of righteousness than, after knowing it, to turn back from the holy commandment that was passed on to them. 22It has happened to them according to the true proverb,‘The dog turns back to its own vomit’,and,
‘The sow is washed only to wallow in the mud.’
“reconciliation and understanding between blacks and whites” = Reparation$ BIG TIME.
Right brain, left brain ... one thing is certain, Wright does not do well speaking off the top of his head.
No chance in HELL while his 'type' are alive:-()
Wright = Farrakhan light..
that Senator B. (whose middle name must NEVER be spoken) Obama insists that he can,,,
"No longer disown Rev. Wright, than he can disown his black race or disown his grandmother"!
How ARROGANT AND INSULTING CAN YOU POSSIBLY GET???
Unbelievable.
Oh, my. I imagine anyone here knows what happens when you “taunt” a wild animal? Appareantly, the good Rev doesn’t.
Hate mongering demagogue so full of himself, he putting on show, trying to take hate comedy mainstream.
He's like a gift from the demon gods for her campaign.
Sharpscum says "No Justice, No Peace".
I say "No Recanting, no Reconciliation".
Over on DU they love the little racist. They would rather vote for him than Obama.
And Wright's hatemongering (with Obama's complicity--sitting there for 20 years listening to hateful venom being spewed like that) is the perfect way to 'bring the races' together!!
Really.
No surprise there. God hating, America hating leftist loons of a feather.
