Politics – After Barack Obama gave his big race speech in mid-March, many critics noted that the Illinois senator had thrown his own grandmother under the bus to defend his controversial pastor. Well, Wright proved over the last few days that he would not be outdone.
Poor Obama. Who knew Mr. Wright could be SO WRONG?!
It's not long now before the Wright Wing Obama True Believers (WWOTB) come out of the woodwork with the latest campaign talking points.
"It's not long now before the Wright Wing Obama True Believers (WWOTB) come out of the woodwork with the latest campaign talking points."
Ya mean the bobbleheads?
What ever Obama says today he's a genius even if it changes tomorrow
Another Propeller Jew hater.
How very Progressive.
Who's the real Jew hater?
"It was the disobedience and rebellion of the Jews, God's chosen people, to their covenantal responsibility to serve only the one true God, Jehovah, that gave rise to the opposition and persecution that they experienced beginning in Canaan and continuing to this very day... Their own rebellion had birthed the seed of anti-Semitism that would arise and bring destruction to them for centuries to come.... it rises from the judgment of God upon his rebellious chosen people."
John Hagee
When asked directly about Hagee's twisted views, John McCain responded, "all I can tell you is that I am very proud to have Pastor John Hagee's support."
He did - for the last 20 years.
If Wright's remarks weren't taken out of context after all, we are left with a situation in which Obama knowingly attended the church of an anti-white bigot.
Perhaps he fantasises about what his life would have been like if his (black)father had been there when he was growing up, and blames his (white)mother.
Rev Wright is a hateful man and apparently a spiteful one, too. How does a person like this get to be the spiritual leader of a flock of 3000?
GOOD question, Wolfie2007. How DOES a person like this get to be the spiritual leader of a flock of 3000? More astounding, is how DID someone like Obama end up wasting so many years listening to him when Obama is supposed to be intelligent?
He's an excellent salesman.
But I suspect that you're not African-American, a guilt ridden Whiteperson and/or 20 years old.
Then I guess that knocks that argument out, doesn't it? So then why was the leader of such a huge group of multi-ethnic individuals? In fact, they chose him because his church didn't start out that large.
This should have followed Mutainia's post above...propeller being propeller again.
Actually, I was referring to the members of the WWOTB club. Are you a member too?
Wright HAS a lot of followers for sure, but, Hitler had more. Apparently, ANYone can fall for stupid rants IF that person can make people feel superior to those they feel are oppressing them.

Not only Hitler could make Nazis to believe that they were superior to every other race, the Zionists have made the Americans and the Europeans to believe that they are the chosen and superior race on the planet and those who do not support them would be cursed, including you.
"GOOD question, Wolfie2007. How DOES a person like this get to be the spiritual leader of a flock of 3000? More astounding, is how DID someone like Obama end up wasting so many years listening to him when Obama is supposed to be intelligent?"
Even more astounding -- How did certifiably insane 'left-behinders' get continuous access to the oval office and influence the war in the middle east?

Perhaps Obama is not a regular church goer, what is that Wright is wrong about the crazy white like you.
Pastor Wright's church, TUCC has 8,000 members.
A multitude of people's support doesn't necessarily make a decision correct. Christ said that many would follow the way to destruction, but few would find the way to eternal life. Why? Because they think that they are smarter than God & believe that they can get away with their sins.
Wright's preaching has consistently been Black Liberation Theology, but he doesn't speak for all blacks & certainly doesn't speak for genuine Christian truth. -Rev. S

Thanks so very much Barry! The only thing to do now is Hope and Change the subject.
Any guess on how long it takes em to figure out this is the VRWC at work?
Oh, Cons, I HOPE McLame wins now.
It will be my pleasure to keep rubbing, "How's that Wright exposé coming, Cons?" for the next four years as the US completes its journey into the crapper.
I look forward to it.
BOBO can keep beating this dead horse, but it will be ineffectual because Bush is a BIGGER liability to John McCain, than Jeremiah Wright is to Barack Obama.
http://politics.propeller.com/story/2008/04/30/...
"Barack Obama's ties to Rev. Wright could hurt. But according to a Wall Street Journal poll, the bigger problem appears to be John McCain's ties to President Bush. 43% of voters say McCain is too closely aligned with Bush."
This is supported by the fact that Bush is the most unpopular president in modern history:
http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2008/05/01...
"A new poll suggests that George W. Bush is the most unpopular president in modern American history."
Bush himself admits he is a liability to McCain:
http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,352740,00.html
"Senator McCain's not here," Bush said. "He probably wanted to distance himself from me a little bit."
If you wish really, really hard maybe that fantasy will come true.
damn, I have to get a new mouse, it bounced as I was double clicking trying to give you a positive, midleft. my apolgies.
BOBO:
"If you wish really, really hard maybe that fantasy will come true."
I provide 3 pieces of supporting documentation replete with data and this is the best response you can muster?
LOL.
Typical right-wing bust up designed to keep americans dumb and docile for their fleecing by the elite. Here we see how easy many of them are to sucker.
My Pastor Is Holier Than Yours
... The mainstream media is having a field day with this minutia while parading "experts" on both politics and religion across our screen. Hours of air time are spent on this trivia while the soldiers keep dying in Iraq, the criminality of the Pentagon policies, the brutal treatment, not only of our prisoners, but of our "all-volunteer" servicewomen, is conveniently swept under the rug and onto the back pages of the newspapers....

"My Pastor Is Holier Than Yours "
Have you seen the pastors McLame cohabits with? They're insane. Truly insane left-behinders.
I think the more accurate statement is " My pastor is crazier that yours"
However you're right that the extreme fundi's like Hagee are pretty out there. But they have a way to go to match the golden combination of racism and anti-American hate that Obama's 20 year mentor and spiritual adviser spews.
If McCain actually attended their church and gave them tens of thousands annually in donations, I'd be pretty disturbed.
Unfortunately for him, Obama is the only candidate that that shoe fits.
I think the more accurate statement is " My pastor is crazier that yours" Ya Think?
Pastor John Hagee stated : "the United States must join Israel in a pre-emptive military strike against Iran to fulfill God's plan for both Israel and the West... a biblically prophesied end-time confrontation with Iran, which will lead to the Rapture, Tribulation, and Second Coming of Christ."
After all it was McCain who sought his support!
http://www.alternet.org/blogs/peek/48397/
Or how about this nut job who McCain also sought support from.
"McCain is trying to have it both ways," said Peter Montgomery, who oversees People For the American Way's Right Wing Watch blog. "He wants the backing and political muscle of Religious Right leaders, but doesn't want to be associated with their extremism. He runs the risk of alienating Catholics and moderates by pandering for the support of the Religious Right."
In 1987, LaHaye was famously forced to resign just days after signing up as national co-chair of Jack Kemp's presidential campaign when the Baltimore Sun revealed numerous anti-Catholic and anti-Jewish statements in LaHaye's writings. For instance, LaHaye called Catholicism a "false religion" and said the Jews "brought the judgment of God upon themselves and their land" by rejecting Jesus.
http://www.pfaw.org/pfaw/general/default.aspx?o...
Oh and lets not forget McCains own words..
On his campaign bus recently, Sen. John McCain told reporters, "I hated the gooks. I will hate them as long as I live." Although McCain said he was referring only to his prison guards, there are many reasons why his use of the word "gook" is offensive and alarming.
It is offensive because by using a racial epithet that has historically been used to demean all Asians to describe his captors, McCain failed to make a distinction between his torturers and an entire racial group.
It is alarming because a major candidate for president publicly used a racial epithet, refused to apologize for doing so and remains a legitimate contender.

The picture you are trying to create is one where Wright constantly preached "Kill Whitey!" and "Down with America!" in each and every sermon for 20 years. I've seen a couple of church bulletins and the same few 10-second sound bites run over and over again.
Heck, why not get some interviews with other members of the congregation? If this sort of bile was indeed a constant theme of Wright's, there should be plenty of people who will corroborate that. Oh, wait, that would mean the drive-by media would have to break their taboo against investigative journalism. Sorry, my bad.
Actually BoBo, Wright is a far more patriotic american than the nutcases chanting the slogans given them by corrupt politicians and media.
Wright, Jefferson and the Wrath of God
Politics â;; As Wright has illustrated over the past several days, in a remarkable appearance Friday on PBS' Bill Moyers Journal and in speeches to the Detroit NAACP and the National Press Club in Washington, he is the opposite of the caricature of an angry, America-hating false prophet that has been so crudely attached to him.
http://politics.propeller.com/story/2008/05/01/...
There's not much anyone can say to convince you people that this is FAR from the most important thing you should consider when electing a president.
If you don't like what Obama would do if elected, fine. But for people who complain about thought crimes and political correctness--as most of you who are gloating on this thread do--to take issue with the words of a man who's not running for president, and the words Obama has disavowed, is ridiculous.
So I'll just leave you all with these two columns about the hysteria over Wright, from the Chicago Sun-Times. If you're honest about why you want one person to be president over another, you'll read them and actually consider what they say. If not, well..."If the shoe fits...":

Good posts, " If the shoe fits "
The brand name of that shoe being... " hypocrisy "
Yeah, that's one name.
Thanks also for those posts Beau7890. When I hear the faux news people saying that Mr. Obama and his associations are dangerous - I have to shake my head and laugh instead of cry. This is ludicrous. Reverend Wright does not speak for Mr. Obama.
Even if he did speak for Obama, it'd be hard for me to wrap my mind around the logic that makes people believe that this one issue is more important than the tanking economy, the war, the desecration of civil liberties, and the like. That's why what Mark Brown says in those columns rings so true.
A lot of people are looking for ways to rationalize their bias.
News Flash! This is Jonah, the Jew Conservative Fox at Fox news bringing you the latest update on the Bantirooster and his pastor, ChickenWright Little. Yes, Little proclaimed the sky is falling, and it was the Fox's fault. Bantirooster, who wants to be head Chicken of the Hen house, had to deny that Chickenwright, after being cooped up with him all these years, is just a little out in left field. But I want you to know, chickens, that I Jonah the Jew Conservative, think that Bantirooster is just as far to the left as his pastor, Rev. Little. Therefore, I think you ought to vote for Leghorn Rooster as the head chicken because he represents more of us conservatives who want to conserve your chicken breasts, errr, I mean wants to conserve you chickens. This is Jonah the Jew Conservative Fox for Fox news making your conservative views known throughout the chicken coop. Have a nice day. Slurp, your legs look nice girls, you good looking little hens.
