I am told that the term is “high yella”. The things you learn working in an inner city probation and parole office.
MSNBC had two apologists on today. When confronted with how Wright’s demeanor and sarcasm could be explained in the light of Christian humility, they said Uncle Jeremiah was a prophet. Obviously, there are some true Marxist’s believers who see Uncle Jeremiah’s role of prophet as more important to black folk than a mere President of than KK of America.
Have you considered that maybe Rev. wright just is not bright enough to realize that he is killing Obama?
It's more accurate if you take out the word "Christian." Wright sounds like Farrakhan. Period.
Wright is not a Christian, he’s a huckster.
Whoever those "other sheep" are, they're not Wright's nation of islam pals. Islam wasn't created when Jesus died.
“Christian Farrakhan” is as oxymoronic as “Reverend Wright.”
A prophet? He’s a legend in his own mind.
That’s okay because Jesus is, not was. They can still come to Jesus.
Easy. Being a member of that church got your Black Authenticity Card punched. Having your Black Authenticity Card punched was indispensable for political success in South Chicago.
Obama, like most politicians, is just a political whore.
I have been watching the news over the past few days...I am tired of hearing the media report that Farrakhan had over a million people show at the mall...
has anyone ever determined how many people were there? I cannot believe there were a million.
I have family members that have darker skin than this idiot.
There is a strong strain of Indian blood in my family; my older brother is darker than this idiot and so was my father.
There is plenty of evidence that they have the same ideology, same friends, and same goons funding them.
No amount of MSM spin about poor, poor Obama, being a victim of his Rev is credible. LOL, what a load of BS.
You can’t see me, but I’m standing and applauding.
Rev wright seems a little bitter to me. Maybe that’s why he clings to religion and has antipathy against people who are different.
Exactly. Typical Black man; whose bias was bred into him.
I am asking on many threads if anyone has read a transcript of Wright’s 9-11 speech. I would like to read it. Dick morris said he read it.
In this portion of the South, Jeremiah Wright would be known as a “gingercake”.
Anyway, he’s still an idiot.
"Because John McCain and other legislators worry that they are easily corrupted, there are legal limits to the monetary contributions that anyone can make to political candidates. There are, however, no limits to the rhetorical contributions that the Rev. Jeremiah Wright can make to McCains campaign.
"Because Wright is a gift determined to keep on giving, this question arises: Can persons opposed to Barack Obamas candidacy justly make use of Wrights invariably interesting interventions in the campaign? The answer is: Certainly, because Wrights paranoias tell us somethingexactly what remains to be exploredabout his 20-year parishioner."
"With each new hate rant by Wright and the silence of Obama on the topic of Reverend Wright, Barack Obama seems to confirm his own moral obliviousness. Worse yet, he seems to have disdain for those who are troubled by his own unwillingness, to break with Wright.
On his new campaign plane, Obama said he has spoken with Wright in recent days and disputed any suggestion that he or his campaign have asked him to stay out of the limelight.
"I have talked to him," he said. "I haven't asked him to do anything."
Walter Williams: "For the nation and for black people, the first black president should be the caliber of a Jackie Robinson and Barack Obama is not. Barack Obama has charisma and charm but in terms of character, values and understanding, he is no Jackie Robinson. By now, many Americans have heard the racist and anti-American tirades of Obama's minister and spiritual counselor. There's no way that Obama could have been a 20-year member of the Rev. Jeremiah Wright's church and not been aware of his statements."
Thomas Sowell: "It is painful to watch defenders of Barack Obama tying themselves into knots trying to evade the obvious. Some are saying that Senator Obama cannot be held responsible for what his pastor, Jeremiah Wright, said. In their version of events, Barack Obama just happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong timeand a bunch of mean-spirited people are trying to make something out of it."
Hussein Obamas racist pseudo minister has turned the Dems' run for President into party's train wreck!
Devastatingly, Shelby Steele writes: Obama has fellow-traveled with a hate-filled, anti-American black nationalism all his adult life, failing to stand and challenge an ideology that would have no place for his own (white) mother."
Just What Did Obama Know About Wright's Past Sermons? (Plenty)
Barack Obama either agreed with what was preached from the Trinity pulpit, or he tuned it out and stayed around pretending to for political reasons. To say he stayed for 20 years but doesn't agree with Wright's preaching is incredible denial. It'd be like a man buying White Sox season tickets for 20 years, attending the games, and saying he's not a fan.
Obamas supporters want us to ignore this story just push it under the rug. While theyll align Republicans with any obscure pastor who does or says something controversial, theyre trying to convince us that Obamas 20-year long close relationship with Wright, including his effective endorsement of him, his church and rhetoric with a $22,500 donation in 2006 is irrelevant.
When Obama decided against wearing an American flag pin, we may all have been a bit too quick to accept his rationale, too quick to find that issue unimportant. Now, that American flag pin has gotten a lot bigger for a lot of us, especially in light of what may have been and may still be Obamas deeper, and, perhaps, secret, less than patriotic beliefs about America.
Wright says that blacks cant be expected to sing God Bless America because of racism. Obama doesnt salute the flag during the National Anthem. That sure strikes me as an amazing coincidence since Obama swears he never heard Wright say anything against America.
Here is the link to the Star Spangled Banner video with obama standing there without his hand over his heart...
Notice her ear ring!
The picture, which appeared on a U.S. Web site, showed the Illinois senator donning a Muslim elder's headdress and robes during a 2006 trip to Wajir in northeastern Kenya. Ahmed Sheikh Bahalow, a retired teacher and elder from ethnically (read Muslim) Somali Wajir, said his community was offended by the insinuation Obama had done anything wrong on his visit. "The Somali community and in particular those living in Kenya have never been that interested in America politics," Bahalow told Reuters in the central town of Isiolo. "But we are following it keenly now because we have been provoked." Wajir residents planned to demonstrate in the town after Friday prayers to show their support for Obama, he said. Those aren't Episcopalians praying on Friday.
It has become obvious to Americans of all stripes that Wright is hate-filled and anti-American.
Obama's lame attempts to distance himself, though probably orchestrated for just this purpose, will not wash. Wright has just been too close for far, far too long. Since his ties to Obama are so deep and long standing, people are now looking at what Wright actually teaches, his ideology and theology, and what Obama has listened to for the last 20 years.
Wright teaches Black Liberation Theology that was the creation of the black radical James Hal Cone, who took the Latin American Liberation Theology that had been created by Marxists to lure poor catholics into their "revolution" (because they knew their totally Godless marxism would not work), and revamped it for blacks in America.
This theology teaches that Christ was an oppressed black man living under whitey rule (the Romans) who was as much or more of a social revolutionary against white oppression as he was about spiritual salvation. In this sense, the theology is much closer to what the Islamics teach about Christ than what true Christians teach about Him.
It is a hate-filled, bigoted, anti-American, race bating, marxist construct. Here is what it's creator, James Hal Cone, says about it, the same James Hal Cone who Wright constantly refers to and holds up as an icon:
"Black theology refuses to accept a God who is not identified totally with the goals of the black community. If God is not for us and against white people, then he is a murderer, and we had better kill him. The task of black theology is to kill Gods who do not belong to the black community ... Black theology will accept only the love of God which participates in the destruction of the white enemy. What we need is the divine love as expressed in Black Power, which is the power of black people to destroy their oppressors here and now by any means at their disposal. Unless God is participating in this holy activity, we must reject his love."This then is the trough from which Barack Hussein Obama has fed and the well from which he has drunk deeply for the past 20+ years.
