Just when you thought it was safe...

President Barack Obama has finally shed one radical association -- disgraced former "Green Jobs Czar" Van Jones -- but now another, more familiar one has resurfaced.

As viewers saw on FOX News last night, Obama's former pastor, Rev. Jeremiah Wright, wasted little time insinuating himself back into the public eye.

You may remember Rev. Jeremiah Wright as the man whose Chicago church Barack Obama attended for many years, and whose most famous sermon, "The Audacity of Hope," lent its title to one of Obama's bestselling books.

He’s very rich, isn’t he?

...Jeez, this guy really has no idea how racist and bigoted he really is..He is obsessed with black/white issues that results in his hatred of white people...I guess to a devout racist ignorance is bliss.

[SolidWood]

Who? Obama, Wright or Jones? The anwer is yes, yes and yes.

But it's only "social justice" when they take your money.

[HiTech RedNeck]

If bliss is rage, that is.

[Baladas]

You are talking about Rev. Wright, not Obama, right?

If the good rev’run would care to read the good Book; he would know we are all God’s children who have gone astray. Some farther than others. Nope didn’t read anythign about whitey hating the black man. I have read about wolves among the sheep though.

Jeremiah Wright: “Racists in the right wing are upset because poor people are about to be helped”

Maybe the racists in the right wing do believe this. However, the vast majority of the right wing don’t. IMHO

He ought to ask a “poor person” in Canada suffering from some difficult to treat illness whether he or she would rather be there or in the USA.

I put my last $10 in my 20 year old Ford pickup and went to a tea party today. Wonder what this fella drove to work?

[combat_boots]

Yes. His home—multi $MM—was paid for by his ‘church.’

[popdonnelly]

Um, poor people are already helped by Medicare and Medicaid. Just a knee-jerk reaction of the part of Wright.

[HiTech RedNeck]

That’s OK because ya see, he’s a bro. For all whiteys to be enslaved under the burden of all bro’s is exactly what he sees as “helping” the bro’s.

He’s very rich, isn’t he?

He's rich and when he retired he moved away from the poor people on the South side of Chicago who made him rich and he moved into a fancy white neighborhood.

The disHonorable Rev Wright's new house (I assume it is done being built by now). One has to wonder was he fleecing the poor people of his flock to build this under the banner of racism or did he shake down the rich people while screaming "Racism!" and instead of passing it down to his flock he kept the money for himself?

It is time to “Van Jones” the regulation czar nominee, Cass Sustein. Look him up immediatley. He is a double barrelled wacko.

The word “helped” is code for FREE......

Wonder what this fella drove to work?

Whatever it is, I'm sure it has a driver and the spinner wheels on it are worth more than my old Dodge.
