Oh really?

As I said upstairs...If this is the Black Church, it should be attacked.

It's really nice of McCain to allow his opponents to define what is and is not a "legitimate issue". It still doesn't sound like he's in it to win.

Why does McCain even have a campaign staff if he's just going to constantly take the advice of his opposition?

it's about time. and i guess since obama declared it a "legitimate issue," no one else can throw it into mccain's face.

take the gloves off, john.

and seriously? the nation of islam provided him with bodyguards? somebody ought to make headlines out of that, too.

Just keep talking.

and seriously? the nation of islam provided him with bodyguards? somebody ought to make headlines out of that, too.

Yep.

hopefully mccain's logic runs thusly:

let my opponents declare what is "on.topic" in terms of "negative campaigning," so that i don't get stuck with the bill.

if it's platform related, he ought to be addressing those issues without the prompting of the democratic elite.

You know, Mr. Wright, there was a black church which I lived near in my college town, and I never heard anything coming out of it but sweetness and light. You could hear it pretty well from the outside.

This is not an attack on black churches, Mr Wright, and I think you had better quit trying to pull the good stuff into your vile orbit.

I'm a white guy, I suppose I'm typical too.

Right, so, I've just been watching Wright's latest speech on Fox. He makes a soundbite about how the people being sent to die for the unjust war blah blah spiel, by people who have never served. It was a lead off from a crack about Wright served for six years but Cheny never did.

After the speech, the newcasters get the usual group of talking heads to analyse the story, democrat republican etc. The democrat makes a point of agreeing with the soundbite about soldiers being sent to die by those who have never served. So, my question is, are democrats no longer in favour of civilian control of the military? Cause that's what their words could be interpreted to mean.

McCain once remarked of Howard Dean that he was "the gift that keeps on giving." The same is true for good ol' Rev. Jeremiah. Aside from being a dirtbag, a race pimp and a huckster, he scares people. I think the Republican party should probably pick up the tab for his speaking tour-- they'll be unlikely to win more votes per dollar expended in any advertising campaign they launch this year.

yeah, this is funny...Michelle mailkin on Fox said that Obama "gave McCain permission to criticize Wright"...

Psychologically it makes sense, Wright, a malignant narcissist and father figure to Obama, can't stand to see his "son" get more attention than he does; he will do anything to sabotage him. Obama, for whom Wright is a surrogate father (his own father having abandoned him), can't denounce him, the only thing now that could possibly save his campaign.

mccain needs to quit trying to play nice. it's so phony and unnatural. he's a stubborn feisty guy. he needs to get scrappy and show some interest in winning this thing. wake up. go for it. show us some enthusiasm,

This black bishop criticizes Rev Wright's comment as divisive and unscriptural:

[Link: www.onenewsnow.com...]

Bishop Jackson said this

Bishop Jackson says there are only two possible explanations for Wright's behavior. "Either Jeremiah Wright is very deeply and profoundly spiritually confused; or frankly, the man just does not know Christ. He's a professional pulpiteer, not a true Christian spiritual leader," Jackson contends.

And he’s being accompanied by bodyguards from the Nation of Islam.

He's definitely working for Stan.

“Promoting figures like Barbie, Batman, Spiderman and Harry Potter and the uncontrolled import of CDs of video games and films should alarm all the country’s officials,” Ghorban Ali Dori Najafabadi was quoted as saying by the student ISNA news agency. “We need to find substitutes to ward off this onslaught, which aims at children and young people whose personality is in the process of being formed,” he added.

excerpt from Ali Pottha and the Deathly Zionists (With Apologies to Jo Rowling)

An incredible silence filled the room Lord Neoconziomort and Ali circled each other warily.

“Our insidious plot to drive the filthy Musbloods from their ancient land can still work; the Ministry of Kufrs still believe the lie that we were killed by the millions by the nice Mr. Hitler, Peace Be Unto Him, as an excuse to drive the Musbloods from Imamigrad”

Ali hissed back: "You killed my parents, you killed my friends, you killed my favorite professor al Qudsnmore (who is definitely not a practicing homosexual), those Musbloods are my friends. But you may have noticed that lately your “smart weapons” aren’t so smart right now. Have you noticed that lately, all you have been hitting are a few of followers of the apostate al Qaeda scum, who really are not true followers of the Imam like we are? You see when you attacked Saddam, I defeated you in the land of the two rivers, I became the true master of Death, the true shaheed who could not be stopped.

So one of us is not getting out of here, and isn’t going to be you."

A crease of doubt furrowed the brow of Lord Neoconziomort as his face became twisted with evil twisted hatefilled unislamic rage, he raised his sorcerer’s wand and spat:

“Let’s Roll!”

“Allah-huAkbar.” cried Ali Pottha.

In an instant the force of magic, which is evil and blasphemous and should never be used in a children’s story was met full force with the incredible power of Ali’s belt bomb which ripped the body of Neoconziomort in half while, Ali Pottha, the boy who lived so he could die later for a really good cause, was immediately martyred.

The giant Ayatollah Hagreed begged everyone not to cry that Ali was a true Martyr; he immediately separated any women who had accidently mixed with the men during battle and made sure their clothing conformed to the highest Islamic standards of modesty. Meanwhile the remaining Zioneaters were rounded up and sold into slavery after having the bottoms of their feet beaten for five months.

20 Years Later

Followed by his wives Hormuzinie and Moona, Al Weazaly walked onto the train platform number 9; the bright red engine with pictures of Imam Khomeini, President Ahmadinejad and Ali Pottha’s and the Arabic script- Martyrdom express hissed radioactive steam, a glorious achievements of our revolution.

Now buy the action figure!

If McCain is the best conservative candidate that the Republicans can put up, then they deserve him.

Over on Drudge.

Wright says he's "coming after" Obama if he gets elected. What's that supposed to mean?

Whatever door President Obama walks through, the Rev. Wright will be there "coming after" him. In other words, should Obama win, we'll have to put up with reverunatthemouth on a daily basis.

Just compare Wright's speeches with those of Pope John Paul II or Benedict XVI. The difference is remarkable, from darkess night to a shinning morning.

The NoI bodyguards are there to reinforce the notion that Wright will be bullied upon and beaten up by the man in charge. Trying to invoke Selma, AL after all. In Washington DC. Its all about the image of oppression to abet their desire for power by making people feel guilty, even when the setting makes no sense.

And Wright, rmember the Deevil hisself can quote the Scripture as Jesus says. So its not just the spoken words from that book that define who is a Christian, it is how a person applies the words in that book that does so. Are you a good stewart working to help your flock better themselves? If we use your retirement house as a yardstick, seems a wee bit selfish on your part.

Now, speaking concerning that portion that Charles has got posted up there:

Jeremiah forgets, or perhaps never thought about it --the portions he quotes of Jesus' words are directed smack dab to the one who quotes those words, no one else.

Also, gov'ts come under different rules, with that same Jesus......the leaders answer directly to God their own selves, and are put into and out of power by Him when and if they know anything about it or not.

So, Jeremiah's got his eyesight all scrambled, as to how he's looking at that stuff of Jesus' he's quoting.....

Wright..."defended comments he made shortly after the Sept. 11 attacks that the United States had brought terrorism onto itself..."Jesus said do unto others as you would have them do unto you. You cannot do terrorism on other people and expect it never to come back on you. Those are biblical principles, not Jeremiah Wright bombastic, divisive principles.”

Rev. Wright is a strutting, swaggering, lying, finger-wagging indictment of charismatic preachers everywhere. If I was a religious man I would call him the quintessential blasphemer.

the Dems have terrible candidates. Just terrible.

Is it too late for Joe Biden to get back in the race?

re: #83 JamesTKirk

I'm not trying to start an argument over this with you. But I do think Senator McCain has won a few more elections than you have. He didn't enter this campaign to take it easy. When the time comes he will be very aggressive. It just makes no sense for him to use his ammunition (and money) fighting a candidate who won't be running in November, whether that's Hillary or Obama.

Did McCain get permission to crticise Wright from an Obama memo or email? you don't think that he is just relying on a sound bite?
This is frustrarting with McCain. For God's sake act like the Republican candidate.You do not need permission

“This is an attack on the black church.”

THEN what would they do?

I was wondering as I watched if the thugs behind Wright were from the NOI. They had that look about them. Thanks for confirming it. And yes, someone SHOULD make a headline of it. Let's see if someone DOES.

Another thing that should be made a headline: is anyone digging into Wright's so-called community ministries to see if they're actually doing any good? To see who's funding them? To see who's benefiting from them? There is just no way this lunatic has ever accomplished anything good. He's a total shyster and they don't change their stripes.

By the way, Charles, it wasn't just Reagan who was ashamed of the North Carolina Republicans. It was Teddy Roosevelt and Lincoln, too.

This ia brief sketch from Debbie Schlussel about the Islamic leader honored by Rev Wright at the NAACP dinner last night.

Rev. Wright Goes Out of His Way to Thank Jihadist, Anti-Semite

By Debbie Schlussel

As I noted last week, former Ayatollah Khomeini employee and eternal friend of Hezbollah and the government of Iran, Imam Mohammed Ali Elahi, went out of his way to praise the Rev. Jeremiah Wright (and attack Jews and Israel), in anticipation of Wright's speech, last night, to the NAACP Freedom Fund Award Dinner in Detroit.

Well, last night, in his speech, Rev. Wright went out of his way to thank Elahi in his speech.

Imam Mohammed Ali Elahi (Right)
(With Hezbollah Spiritual Leader Sheikh Mohammed Hussein Fadlallah
To get an idea of whom Rev. Wright was thanking, read some of my myriad past work over the years as I've followed Imam Elahi, an open proponent of terrorism and defender of Iran:

* Hezbollah U.S.A.: How a U.S. Attorney, the FBI, ICE & a Congressman Helped a Terror Group

* Pander Bears: Abu Mosque-owitz & the Feds Suck Up at Hezbollah Mosque - PART I

Elahi was so extreme, even his own extremist former mosque--the Islamic Center of America--kicked him out.

Yup, the man Obama won't denounce hangs with one of Iran's/Hezbollah's top American agents and specifically praises him.

Great omen for Obama's Presidency.

"Ayatollah" A Million Times: Guess Who's Speaking on "US-Iranian" Relations @ a Denver College?

By Debbie Schlussel

Beginning in 1979, Americans at the U.S. Embassy in Iran spent 444 days being held hostage there under the Khomeini government.

So, why would we allow anyone connected with perpetrating that captivity into America? Good question. We've already allowed Mahmoud Ahmadinejad--who was involved with the "revolution" and was one of the captors--in, to speak at Columbia University, last year. And we allowed Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini's Navy imam, Mohammed Ali Elahi, to become a U.S. citizen, despite the fact that he lied about his ties to terrorist groups on his citizenship application.

Now, our friend, Rocky at Rocky Mountain Neo-Con, writes about another top Ayatollah Khomeini revolutionary from Iran who will speak at Metropolitan State College of Denver, on Wednesday April 30th.

Ebrahim Yazdi (Left) w/Yasser Arafat, Israeli Embassy, Tehran, 1979

Ebrahim Yazdi (Right) With Ayatollah Khomeini's Grandson (Far Left)
Rocky gives us all the details on Ebrahim Yazdi, Khomeini's first deputy prime minister and first foreign minister. It's very disturbing, including news that Yazdi, Yassser Arafat, and Ayatollah Khomeini, together, took over the Israeli embassy in Iran, too (see above photo).

Why the heck are we letting this guy in?

Read all the details.

Based on what I heard on Fox this morning, it sounds like Wright isn't going to play favorites if Obama is elected. That is, Wright is going to hold the federal government responsible for the things he sees as needing to be corrected. If Obama doesn't fix them, then Wright is going to hold his feet to the fire. Actually, this was one of the more logical and reasonable things I've heard Wright say.

re: #90 Shiplord Kirel

Prediction: The MSM will do a Stalin style disappearance on Wright.

He won't be able to get anyone more important than a stoned reporter from the local cow-college paper to show up for his bombastic pronouncements.

As opposed to the local big city, elitist Marxist college?
I want to be there when you 'splain this to the "Aggies".

re: #127 Son of the Black Dog

once elected President, in short, Obama will no longer be black according to wright.

Brilliant observation of the Day Award!

re: #130 Kenneth

Brilliant observation of the Day Award!

heh. the brilliant observation would be to note that Obama was never black, but a mix between a white woman and an arab man.

However, that's not PC to bring up.

I was grilling shrimp last night when Wright was speaking.

His speech was so foul I had to double check to make sure that fishy smell wasn't coming from my non-sewage raised in China, All American wild caught Gulf shrimp.

It wasn't
The foul odor was coming from Jeremiah's mouth all the way up I-75 into my kitchen

re: #17 madisonsfriend

So we did something that made us deserve 9-11. What is it exactly that he thinks we did? What was our terrorism on other people? Can he spell it out for me 'cause I think he is talking out of his a--.

Largely, he's talking about Israel and the Jews, and US siding with the opression of the Jesus-like palestinians, dontcha know.

And the Jesus-like Iraqi insurgents, who were crucified-by-panty.

And the Jesus-like africans, who are being crucified by the the CIA invented AIDS virus.

re: #101 Anna

And Wright, rmember the Deevil hisself can quote the Scripture as Jesus says. .

Apart from invoking the name of Jesus for emphasis, not much above the function of an exclamation mark, Wright hardly quotes genuine scripture at all, and as you noted, he twists what he uses. It just seems like he does and the illusion is enhanced by the big chunk of a Bible he's got sitting there, but haven't seen him actually refer to it much at all. It is a prop. His primary source of reference is is Nation of Islam. Wright just figured out how to work CHristian nomenclature into it to insinuate the mean theology into a church setting. No wonder Farrakan thinks he's great.

Let him who has ears, hear. Wright is part of a movement that has inticed a certain type of person away from correct and good worship and collected them into a nasty cult. We only see who's stayed around because they like it, but we do not see the many people who came, listened and left, appalled, never to go back.

I listened to a pastor once who said that very large and very small bibles are for looks. One either wants everyone to notice it, or they want to be seen as someone who always reads it.

I'm sure there are exceptions, but the point seems rather valid, far too often.

Africans have crazy distinctions between black and arab.

Anyone with arab blood who is a muslim is an 'arab' in subsaharan africa, no matter how 'black', by American perceptions, they may be.

I guess because the 'arab' africans tend to want to murder or enslave or otherwise dominate the non muslim africans, the distinction is culturally valid, even if racially bogus.

re: #109 BeerDrinking_VictoryMonkey

Is there even such a thing as "the black church?" Just as islam is a race, so now black is a denomination?

Good point! And they said that Sunday mornings have the most segregated hours in America...and I wonder who is doing the segregating now?

He continued: “Jesus said do unto others as you would have them do unto you. You cannot do terrorism on other people and expect it never to come back on you. Those are biblical principles, not Jeremiah Wright bombastic, divisive principles.”

Actually, Hillel said, "That which is distasteful to you, do not do unto others." He can't even get his quotes straight!

re: #131 LanceKates

Well to be strictly accurate, Obama's father was from Kenya. He was a "black" East African, which is to say African, with a bit of Arab mixed in somewhere in the ancestors.

“If you heard the whole sermon, first of all, you heard that I was quoting the ambassador from Iraq. ..."

If you heard the whole sermon, you heard that he said he was quoting the ambassador from Iraq. He said he was (actually, I think he meant the ambassador TO Iraq, but ok), and he may even have thought he was, but I believe Fox News has already stated that Ambassador Peck said no such thing, at least on their network.

Next?

from the Bawer article:

The Western media are in the driver’s seat on this road to sharia. Often their approach is to argue that we’re the bad guys.

This is the essence of Wright's message. So he is a driver on the road

re: #136 Maine's Michael

Hence the racial lines of the genocide in Darfur. The Arab Janjaweed are very dark Arabs, while their victims, the Darfurans, are African negroes (can we still use that word?). But both are Muslims.

re: #139 sffilk

I think Wright would choke to death if he realized he was quoting a Jew.

re: #136 Maine's Michael
Worse, a Muslim man can have four wives. He can also have slave women who bear his children, too.
If the mother is a slave, her children are slaves. If the mother is free, her children are free - correct heirs to the family property.
Like these Sahalien family dynamics?:
There are eight kids in the family, all the same father, but 3 different mothers. Of the mothers, two are wives but your mother is your father's slave. Therefore, YOU are your own father's slave and by extension, you have been born a slave to your half-siblings. Your half brothers and sisters go to school, you don't. They get food, you have to scrabble for it, after you've done all the work required of you. YOU are part of the family property that the heirs get to fight over when daddy croaks. Nobody cares. Suck it up.

And we think our family dynamics get vicious.

Jeremiah Wright is the epitome of a bombastic and divisive existence. He causes more harm than good.

re: #144 Kenneth

I think Wright would choke to death if he realized he was quoting a Jew.

Should we tell him? (hehe)

You cannot do terrorism on other people and expect it never to come back on you.

This is the kind of statement that really pisses me off. Please tell me exactly what acts of terrorism this country "did on other people" to deserve what happened to innocent Americans on 9/11.

Absolutely! The problem with churches is always the egos of who's in charge of them.
That's why there is such a variance between churches even within the denominations. Churches do very well with pastors and elders who desire that people are always pointed towards Christ, to be molded in HIS image. The problems arise when pastors try to force the congregation into the PASTOR'S own image or what THE PASTOR thinks everyone should be doing, not what CHrist thinks.
Sometimes it's manageable, well within ignorable margins, other times it's oppressive, even totalitarian - worth fleeing from if it can't be changed for the better.

That's a very revealing statement isn't it? Something KOS would post.

He continued: “Jesus said do unto others as you would have them do unto you. You cannot do terrorism on other people and expect it never to come back on you. Those are biblical principles, not Jeremiah Wright bombastic, divisive principles.”

Sounds like the bombastic bigot has been reading the Koran, not the bible.

re: #57 Edouard

I would like to hear a prominent Black preacher come out and publicly and loudly refute that Wright speaks for Black churches generally. Because he most certainly does not.

This is the problem. We are not listening. Black preachers and black commentators have been on cable TV by the dozens saying this is the black church.

Obama said in his 3/18/2008 speech "Like other predominantly black churches across the country, Trinity embodies the black community in its entirety "

"The church contains in full the kindness and cruelty, the fierce intelligence and the shocking ignorance, the struggles and successes, the love and yes, the bitterness and bias that make up the black experience in America. "

Why do we say this is not the black church? You folks sound like the same people that continue to say their are Islamic moderates?

I say, show me 10 Islamic moderates - just 10.

I say, show me 1 Black Liberation Theology church that is not like this - just 1.

BTW, Obama also said in his 3/18/2008 speech this:

Not once in my conversations with him have I heard him talk about any ethnic group in derogatory terms, or treat whites with whom he interacted with anything but courtesy and respect.

Was he listening last night? Last night was the first time Racist Wright preached like this?

re: #77 David Simon

I'd say brown shirts. I'm reminded more of Roehm's SA.

Röhm came to a bad end.

re: #113 opnion

Somebody just has to convince mcCain that Obama is really a Republican conservative. He would treally try to maul him then.

Fixed it.

I love this guy and Mrs. Hussein Obama, everytime they open their mouths, everyone gets to hear what an America hater sounds like.

I watched the full sermon on Fox yesterday.

Besides the perplexing distortion of historical facts, outright lies, and skilled oration, I noticed this: there is NO light in this man.

I've seen other men in the pulpit that had very little light, and almost no spiritual spark in them. It sometimes happens and it is sad to see.

He gave me chills. There is NO light; but there seems to be a bottomless pit of darkness. Obama needs to break all ties with him---not for the nomination so much as for the sake of his soul.

I think McCain is following this military maxim:
"When your enemy is making a mistake, don't interrupt!"

Nation of Islam bodyguards? I find that's ironic.

Whaddaya mean, what about the Boston Tea Party (no casualties, broke one padlock, dumped tea in harbour)?

What a freakin drama queen! The bit re: Farrakhan not putting him in chains or making him black. Methinks that Wright is a self loathing black projecting imagined grievance onto his amen chanting listeners. Warped to say the least. Keep chirping sir, and next time maybe someone could straight up ask him how he really feels about whites and Jews.

Question for the panel:

Please name the US Number One Racist.

I vote Rev Wright.

The bombastic bigot sticks to his position that the U.S. government gave black people AIDS.

re: #73 galloping granny

Now THAT is disturbing. Since when do we allow private armies in the United States of America?

AHEM!

The world's largest private army, milady!

Can you imagine if a white republican running for POTUS went to a church like The Westboro Baptist Church for 20 years!
The media would destroy the man..

Hate is hate.

REV. Wright is a hate monger and to many people, it seems, don't care that Obama has a long history with Wright.

re: #28 Elydo

The democrat makes a point of agreeing with the soundbite about soldiers being sent to die by those who have never served. So, my question is, are democrats no longer in favour of civilian control of the military? Cause that's what their words could be interpreted to mean.

Sounds like he/she should vote for McCain. After all, neither Hil nor Barry served, while McCain did...

Wright is a Muslim. No doubt about it.

He is about as un-Christian as a suicide bomber.

re: #163 RememberSekhmet?

AHEM!

The world's largest private army, milady!

Does that mean that you're a "harmless historical nut, who'll wear boilerplate on your butt? Who will dress up in clothes from the 12th century and bash on each other with sticks and debris?"

(Leslie Fish, "True Story")

I like this Wright guy. Let him talk and then let him talk some more! The US are terrorists and so 9/11 was just a response?
American voters will know how to honour people running for office who willingly exposed themselves for 20 years to a mindset like that!

Wether Wright realizes this or not, he is campaining for McCain! Hrhrhr... this guy truly is the answer to Republican prayers for a huge break.

By golly, I think I've figured it out. McCain attacking the republican party in NC, then "rethinking" his position after receiving approbation from Barry Hussein...Johnny is bucking for second spot on an Obama ticket! NOW IT ALL MAKES SENSE!

Upon further reflection it seems some Democrats have never learned what a bad idea Jimmy Carter's Malaise speech was. All Wright and Obama are doing, is expanding upon that malaise concept and tacking on fire&brimstone to make the average US citizen feel guilty.

We saw how well that speech helped Jimmy. To Wright, Obama, and their supporters; keep on spraying this garbage please. Let people know what is truly in your heart and be repulsed. 49 to 1 it will be with only DC and Illinois voting Obama this November.

Come on America, its Wednesday morning with John McCain! Oh gawd I did say that... O.o;

Wright (he ain't no reverend in any legit church) is so dense, a neutron star would be jealous. Couple this to the attention he gets by the MSM, and one must begin to question the judgement of our "journalists". He better watch out arguing about the difference in black and white brains. Given his loon-talk, pretty soon, we're going to start believing him.

What an egomaniac.
Questioning or criticizing him is an attack on "the black church," as if he is Der Fuhrer for all religious blacks.
He's a totalitarian, hateful freak.

And a thieving hypocrite, as he moves into his multimillion-dollar, 10,000 square foot mansion in a white suburb, paid for by his congregation of fools and dupes.

The last refuge of a scoundrel is racial pride.
