The Associated Press noticed liberal Rev. Joseph Lowery's prayer raised eyebrows when he prayed for that day in the hazy future when "white will embrace what is right." That divisive note drew this headline: "Lowery gives sole inaugural note of racial caution."
Didn’t watch the ‘event’ - heard it on Rush .... that guy was still living in the Sixties ....
I thought it was the sole not of racism from an old fart.
many black leaders and Revs are because they know that if they put the slavery issue into the minds of the average black then it is those leaders who will make money on it.
Many blacks are angry and it is because of comments like those of this man
Excercise racial caution frequently. I think I’ll break here and get my racial supper in the oven.
These people are crud.
that speech by the phony was a campaign speech nothing more.
It was putting down Bush left right and center.
I read nothing in the way of praise of Bush or thanks for keeping us safe.
The comes the racist bit which seemed to escape the white liberals

Then comes the racist bit which seemed to escape the white liberals
We have overcome.
We have overcome.
We have overcome, today.
For deep in my heart
I do believe
We have over come, today.
First I'd heard of this... can you clarify?
Translation:
The Associated Press noticed liberal Rev. Joseph Lowery's prayer raised eyebrows when he prayed for that day in the hazy future when "white will embrace what is Wright."
McCAin set the table for this, when he insisted noting the racial hatred from Obamaworld would not be mentioned, let alone a ‘issue’.
Thanks for nothing, Johnny.
Racism still is a money maker ... have to keep it alive ..
Where Obama clearly shows he is not Lincoln is his inability to draw upon years of reading and internalizing original source material (The Bible), and imbuing his prose with divine language. Incidentally, that was Biden’s problem too, and like Obama, he was caught lifting phrases as well.
“white will embrace what is right.”
Department of Justice says that in 2007, the jail incarceration rate per 100,000 US citizens was:
170 - White
815 - Black
276 - Hispanic
white will embrace what is right......
Code for: REPARATIONS for slavery, Jim Crow and Negro League Baseball......
Truly a sad day in America
Rev. Lowery:
It was white people who, for the first time in the history of the world said, We are strong enough to enslave other people, but it is wrong, and we are not going to do it any more.
It was white people who then pressed the rest of the (non-white) world to give up slavery. It was legal in parts of the Arab world until the 20th century.
It was white people who set up a government of laws guaranteeing them freedom. But that freedom presumed and required that individuals embrace right by regulating their own behavior, providing for their families, obeying the laws, respecting the property of others, and being productive.
It was white people who kept that system going and productive, and created a country which has given more freedom and prosperity to its citizens of all colors than any other country in the world.
It was white people who passed the civil rights laws that gave Obama and other minorities advantages that they could never have gotten on their own merits.
It is tens of millions of white people who have worked hard and paid the taxes that have supported millions of non-whites. I, personally, have had enough of my income confiscated each year to support the spawn of a couple of skanks who cant keep their knees together, and who are being raised to think I owe them even more.
Any person of any color who embraces right in this country can get ahead. Embracing right means work before pleasure, paying rent before buying bling, marriage before children, and all the other daily choices that constitute embracing right.
Damn you, you nasty old race baiter.
