Hypocritical to the core. Unfortunately so many Americans just don't see him for what he is. Unfortunately, those of us who see the truth will suffer along with the ignorant.
It is simple. Obama is a liar. Obama is a socialist. Obama is a racist. I would call Obama a scum bag, but that would be demeaning to bags filled with scum.
He is SPINNING
He didn't even answer the question.
Are many whites hypocritical for saying MLK was a great man when he also said bad things about america during vietnam? Gretas racist and so are the people that watch her show. Im done.
Obama is a bigot. I would not have voted for him in the first place, but now I oppose him.
IM SICK AND TIRED OF THE 'IM BLACK, SO THE WORLD OWES ME' ATTITUDE! BE MEN AND STAND UP FOR YOURSELVES!!!
THE BLACKS FROM THE 1940'S AND 1950'S HAD IT BAD, THE BLACKS OF TODAY HAVE IT GREAT - STOP COMPLAINING AND SO SOMETHING ABOUT IT SO YOUR DAMN KIDS STOP CARRYING THAT CROSS YOU NEVER HAD TO CARRY!!
OBAMA IS A TYPICAL BLACK MAN WHO DEEP DOWN INSIDE WILL BLAME THE WHITE MAN FOR EVERYHING!
Dear Greta: I have to say that after listening to these groups of Black Men / Preachers who are honoring Wright. WHAT I HAVE LEARNED ABOUT THE AFRICAN AMERICAN CHURCH IS SHOCKING! I HAD NO IDEA, NOT EVEN AN INKLING HOW RACIST THEY ARE. NO WONDER RACISM IS STILL ALIVE. I'M STILL REALING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
RACIST! If the man had a brain in his head he would embrace his white side as well and stop throwing granny under the bus and talking like he is only black.
Go further....Obama is the "Anti Christ." A typical candidate for a group of sheep that need to be led by a party that is imploding day by day for their liberal views.
obama is a liar - once he takes office he will have rev. wright over to the Black House
SO typical of this type of person. Lord help us!
Hillary lies to have us believe she is something she's not. Obama lies to have us believe his is not something which he most certainly is -- a biggoted anti-American.
Obama is squirming a bit, like a worm on a hook! He has been caught in lies and deceipt and he is digging the hole deeper.
Not only is he hypocritical and a liar, but we all need to be afraid of him as President.
This man is caught in an impossible situation and he's lying through his teeth.
this fellow will not be "president" if that is what he thinks......not good
its ok for african americans to Black Entertainment ,.........Im all for it as long as you Put White entertainment .. im really tired of this racist thinking people ifeel obama should try to listen to BILL Cosby,he says it like it is.
Master of SPIN and now, he's scaring me...
It is easy in hindsight to say he would quit the church, now. I don't believe him for a second!
I actually considered him to be a better choice than Hillary before this. I dont like any of the candidates right now enough to give them my vote. I wish we could get away from the two party system and have people stand for what they believe in and not their party.
Come on.....how long was Don Imus's soundbite?.....this is ridiculus...what a bunch of foot dancing these people are doing.....and everybody can see through it too....Obama better watch out....they are the ones killing his chances
#5 Scott - Gonna reallllly miss ya!!! Don't let the door kick you in the butt!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Dear Greta, Could you find out and let your follows know something about Mr. Obama parents. I would like to know about his father and mother, and his upbrings.
Thanks, KenO
Obama is finally desperate! Hey, how about someone addressing this question. What about all the other people sitting in that church and listening to these sermons? Who else was there that it would be interesting to know about?
I think Obama is a hypocrit. As far as people like him are concerned, the only way a comment can be racial is if it is made by a white person who is talking about a black person. It seems now that blacks are way more racist than whites are.
How can anyone buy that answer?
Does he think we're all stuipd?
He will bring down the Dem's.
LIES, LIES, LIES, LIES, LIES I am sick that anyone would vote for Obama. Listening to the other reverends they are the one's that segregate themselves and promote racism, according to them all the black churches preach this crap!!!! Wake up people, we are wasting the nominee on Obama!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It is the ultimate in hypocrisy and deceit. The man can in no way be believed. Of course, we find the same problem with Hillary. It is hard to imagine that one of this nation's political parties could only produce these two very inferior candidates.
What a joke OBAMA is. He is nothing but a BLACK A** LIAR. Apparently the only hope this country is going to have is JOHN MCCAIN. If OBAMA should be president this country will really be all to Hell in 4 years.
Hope Obama keeps a notebook handy so he can keep track of what he has said.
Obama is the greatest fraud, a racist, double talker. What should we believe?
These CDs represent less than 1% of Pastor Wrights Sermons. Would you include this material if it was something that you regret as Obama would have us believe. More likely the CDs are essentially a "Best of" series.
There is something about Senator Obama from the very begining of this campaign that has given me pause for thought. I think he is just too SLICK.
The more Obama speaks, the more lies he tells. He stuttered and spluttered again, a clear indication of his dishonesty.
Senator Obama is just like every other opportunistic spinning politician. I am so disappointed. His premise was new politics, no more spin....honesty. And he has shown himself as a wolf in sheep's clothing. What we see is not what we get!!!
It's pure and simple, Obama is a Muslim. He is dishonest and talks out of both sides of his mouth, depending on who he is talking to. He cannot be trusted and in my opinion he pretty well matches Revelations description of the anti-christ. He is dangerous!
I can't imagine in what "Context" the remarks made by rev. Wright made would be acceptable.
Out of Context..... he said what he said. All of it. Those sound bites are long enough, we get the context. And I don't like the context at all. That is my right as an American. A true American would never utter those words.......
I think Obama is a racist.
Greta,
Do the letters "BS" come to mind?
please stop talking about the same Im so sick im tired of hear the same I think obama is great !!!
El paso tx
He is a racist and what scares me is the people that believe his lies.
Of course it's hypocritical. He's running for office and hiding the truth at a rate equal to the embellishments and lies that come from Hillary's mouth. It's as amazing as watching the Democratic pundits scramble and change the topic to answer dirct questions on either Obama or Hillary's lies.
tried to enter neutral stuff, but gret sucked it up!
Talk about being hypocritical! Obama says every vote should count!! How about Florida and Michigan? We floridians went out and did our vote in good faith and look what it got us. If Obama weren't afraid of losing, he'd OK counting our votes.
I believe Obama is THE MANCHRIAN CANIDIATE
Plain and simple-turn it around and let a white clergyman and church behave this way with respect to blacks...what do you think will happen?! What is out of context about hate speech about America? What is the difference between attitudes of Rev. Wright and the KKK...only a hood. I do not by the excuse of it was his generation. Isn't a Christian able to transcend this?
PLEASE! All of these "men of the cloth" say the same thing, over and over, all of this was taken out of context. Wright said it, he repeated it, and he hates white folks and so does OBAMA, he is half white, so he has never belonged to ANY race and he is mad about it
#24 Kenneth J.Ormandy so your saying greta and you guys are racist? The people here talking bad about obama were never gonna vote for him in the first place. America really isnt ready for a black president.
jeff is a moron and imbecile and smiles like he has lots of gas
I love it! The more he has to TRY and answer these quetions the BIGGER the hole he putting himself into. What a babbling liar.
He is a liar. 20 years as a member, he did not know. This country needs a president that is not a racist.
Hypocritical, that is an understatement. Obama is pandering to the people now by saying he would have left the church. The new pastor does not sound like he is any better. Obama can not be straight on what he says about Wright.
Obama is a liar and a hypocrite, a charming one to be sure, but still a liar. I don't think he can win the Presidency if more of his past dealings and attitudes are revealed.
There is no logical explanation for Obama's reasons for calling for Imus to be fired, yet continuing his association with Wright based on the fact that "he did not hear" Wright's statement in Church. Does he really think anyone with any brains would believe such a thing? Everytime he is on the air saying these things, the more of an idiot I think he is!
He will NEVER win if he is the Democratic nominee.
He's turning out to be an even bigger fraud than most politicians - what a disappointment! I would not have voted for him because I don't agree with his positions, but I did like his vision of hope.
In my humble opinion is that the more Obama talks about his friend the Reverend the more he distances himself not from his friend but from the Presidency. This may just keep Obama from the Presidency.
Obama makes great speeches. His lies are much greater
It's easy to say what you would have done.
As a parent I can not understand how he could allow his children to attend this church. How sad.
My minister and I have very different opinions on many issues. Rev. Wright is not running for president. I have NEVER voted for a Democrat, and I will NOT vote for Hillary. (I am an older white female.) I hope I have a chance to vote for Obama.
He says the difference is that Rev. Wright has retired or he would have left the church. He sat there for over twenty years before the guy retired! If we waited long enough, Don Imus would have retired too! Obama won't give anyone a straight answer on this, so don't hold your breath ... and don't vote for him!
I had no idea these things went on in the black church's. Obama knew, and is a hypocrit for talking about Imus. This wright fellow is the most racist person I have hear in a long time. Rasism will not end, because black people dont want it to end. So no matter how politicly correct whites must be, blacks can say whatever they want and be justified for it. Just not fair!!
P-L-E-A-S-E!!! There is no difference between BO and a snake oil salesman and people are actually going to vote for this man. Talk about the bottom of the barrell.
Obama is a liar LIAR and I now loathe him and he has set racism back quite a bit.
I do not believe Sen. Obama at all. I don't believe he has known the pastor and sat in his church many times over the past 20 years and did not know anything about these remarks. It is beyond belief in my opinion and if he lies about this what else is he lying about?
The black church leaders rally around the notion of "out of context" and it's the black church history to justify this type of rap every Sunday. Very sad and they will never move past it until that "chip" falls from their shoulders.
I bet if Don Imus had been a black radio host making racist remarks about white people, Obama would be singing a different tune. Whether Obama and the media like it or not, this whole situation may just leave Obama as nothing more than the "black candidate" for the remainder of the election. People need to stop making excuses for Wright and say that ANY kind of racism and hate speech is wrong. They can't uphold Wright then call white people racist if they were making hateful remarks about blacks. Either it's all wrong, or none of it is. It's hate preachers like Wright who make it impossible for us to stop seeing ourselves by race or ethnicity and just be American.
Obama is a liar. He had to hear some of those anti american sermons. I wouldn't trust him as far as I could throw him.
He's a complete joke. How can you say one thing about one guy and another thing about another guy. Im mean, if we want unity in this country. He has to show it.
I have just ONE question. If this had been a WHITE preacher, what do you think the outcome would have been? I think we all know the answer to that!!!!!!!!
he obama is dancing, he is just exactly like his mentor.
Obama is a liar and needs to take a lie detector test!!!
Why is Obama being compared to IMUS? Obama didn't make these comments another adult human being did! Imus made his comments himself. Obama is not in control of what someone else said! Each person should be held accountable for their OWN actions. Why are you all spending so much time on this topic? There are SO many more important things that you should focus your energy and airtime on!
It is easy to say "I would leave the church", but the so-called "Reverend" did not retire till one month ago, right before all of this came out. Why didn't Mr. Barack Hussein Obama leave the church when he heard these racist remarks. I know that the God that I praise and believe in would NEVER say those words! My God unites - He does not divide! I am not nieve, I personally am married to a black man, and I know that as long as we have air to breath, there will be racist people, but in a whole I believe America has come a long way from the shameful laws against African Americans in the past. Be watchful!!!! Obama is a wolf in sheep clothing!!
Everybody should visit this site and know what and who Obama and his wife really are.
http://www.obamatruth.org/
oh the tortured logic we weave when he practices to deceive and hide behind racial guilt to explain the remarks that are just plain nuts!!!!
I'm still insulted by the "typical white" comment. Reverse racism to the core! Now Rev. Wright is offending Italians? Big mistake.
I think that Obama has not been truthful with America since day one. It would have been nice if this would have come out earlier in the primary process and see what his numbers would look like. It scares me to death to have a president that is a liar and an anti-american. If Obama becomes president I hope the second comming is not far behind. PLEASE WAKE UP AMERICA!!!!!!!!
I could no more separate my self from Rev. Wright than I could separate myself from the black comm.
Which lie do you believe
If I haD KNOWN I would have left
I JUST WONDER WHAT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED IF A WHITE PREACHER WOULD HAVE SAID THOSE THINGS ABOUT BLACK PEOPLE.
Hypocritical through and through. Interesting to watch the people with comments trying to support him.
My head spins at the thought of what Mr. Obama's cabinet would look like.
Can anyone be as sick of this first class liar?
Obama, continues to say daily that he is a new change--- a different kind of politican, yet every time he opens his mouth to explain his actions he shows us all what a first class liar he really is.
IN fact if he was a white Republican they would have stoned him to death by now,
The hypocracy that this guy spouts is truely laughable, his every word is carfully crafted, he starting to remind me more about Bill Clinton, in fact his lies are making Bill look like a boy scout, all we need to hear is obamas definition of what being at church truely means, Perhaps Obama can say he was at church, but having an out of body experience.
Obama is a first class dodger, a liar, a snake oil salesman, and not a man we should call President.
It is amazing to me how all the blacks support J.Wright and his hate. Perhaps if they dam America we should send them back to Africa to see how long they last. I'm appauled at the black church and how they spread lies and deceit to their congregation. No wonder the black community have so many problems and fill our prisons with such hate. Obama is no better and will do nothing but spread the same message of hate.
Our country is is deep trouble if he is elected.
I can't believe that anyone would seriously think that Obama would ever quit this church. He is so full of it. He will lie and say anything he needs to say to win this election. When will the citizens of this country wake up and see this man for who he really is? What Imus said was wrong. He apologized, was fired, dragged thru the coals and almost ruined. Now, eventhough Obama didn't say these racists statements, he has heard these statements for the last 20 years and obviously never thought there was anyting wrong with it until it made the media circuits. He says he never heard these things his preacher said, then he said he did hear these things, then he says that he would have left the church if the Reverend hadn't retired, then he says..... and so on and so on. He will say whatever he needs to say to get this out of the media. He is another LIAR!!!
God help us, if this man gets elected, we live in the greatest country in the world, join Obama and watch it "change".
Can anyone be as sick of this first class liar?

DOUBLE STANDARD THROUGH AND THROUGH
You have spent about 2 weeks on this same subject and you only spent about two days on Hillary's lying ass. You are such a racist yourself and will do anything to keep a black man from getting elected.
Americans are not stupid. Anyone could see through it. He was stumbling and groping for words. To have said that he would have left the church if Pastor Wright had not retired is so untrue. He wouldn't have done it. Jeremiah Wright was the head of his "religious" campaign. He knew. And for him to judge Imus. It is clear that Barack cannot stand pressure on a one-on-one. If you really want to know the true essence of his presence on The View, you should ask Whoopi Goldberg. Americans better wake up. Here is a person who is voting for Hiliary Clinton. If she loses the nomination unfairly, we are voting for John McCain.
Hypocritical to the core and a liar and such a smooth mover that he is getting away with it. I am a Democrat and when I heard him speak at the convention years ago, I immediately knew he would run for POTUS some day, which I thought was a good idea, but that he needed more experience. I have always supported Hillary Clinton, but at first considered changing over to BO. Now, it would be a cold day in hell. I am a Christian and the only thing that I will not tolerate in my church is politics. It is about God and spreading the word of Jesus and bringing others to Him. I don't want to be in line behind Rev Wright when he's waiting at the Pearly Gates. In addition, BO has been passive aggressively allowing others to do his dirty work for months, while he smooth talks his way out of it and the press has mostly fawned over him. I have almost stopped watching MSNBC and have switched to Fox and CNN because MSNBC is like Obama Campaign Headquarters. Greta, you are fantastic and the most fair person in all of news on any network.
im imus and i apologized even to crazy old Al...not so sharp...sharpton...and look where that got me....obama hussein is the real racist!
I don't even know where to start with this man, let me see if I get this straight he sat there for 20 years but if the pastor didn't retire then damned if he would have been there 21 years. He is a total hypocrite, he thinks it's wrong for a "typical white person"(as we were labeled) to say racist things but his black pastor can say whatever he wants and that's ok. This man keeps putting his foot in his mouth and I'm loving it..
If Obama wins the nomination, McCain will probably win the general election, especially if he keeps stonewalling in the Florida and Michigan delegate issue. Once again, the Democrats will have found a way to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.
Obama theTRUTH.... if you know what that is re: Rev Wright ... will set you free!!!
I think this issue will cause Obama the primary. We cannot have a President who believes in the statements of Rev. Wright. We need a President who will be fair to all people not just a select few.
Obama is a liar and a racist and is not fit to be the President of the U.S.
if all the blacks preach the same as rev wright this county is in for a greater civil war than fighting the terriost in the war against bi laden and his bunch of mudering buchters in the name of islam
Wow.... this man wants to be President of the greatest country on earth?????
He couldn't talk his way out of a paper bag !!!!!! Really, does he think we are that stupid !!!!!!!!
Obama is a hyprocrite!! I cannot believe he did not know what his preacher was saying. Shows his character> If he is elected this country is doomed.
The united staes political system is a mess, is this the type of democracy we Americans want the un-developed countries to emulate, i think the answer to this is NO. Why do we Americans hate one another, the GOP hates the Democrate. The media houses dont like one another and also the people dont like one another. I listen to CNN, FOX and a host of other. When i listen to you guys at fox, i see alot of hate in you guys, love all people no matter who they are or what they look like. This life is short, let us have fun and enjoy it
I am only 14 years old and I can tell you that I do not understand why anyone would think that it is ok for Rev. Wright to say the racial things that he did. I personally think that everything that Obama has said on behalf of Rev. Wright has been a lie. I wish we could all judge people on their character and not their race.
He's definitely a hypocrite.
The new preacher at his church sounds like just more of Wright, too.
Obama, the democrats best!!!!!! Lord help us.......
This is a fine cast of peformers we have to choose from for President Obama need more seasoning to bluff his way through this process.
I think Senator Obama should have better writters and ADVISORS
You know, I have been black for 61 years, and, I've never attended any black church that said the things that Wright said; nor would I. I think it's time for real people to come on television and tell the truth, because these so called black leaders are just plain lying. Blacks are their own worse enemies.
I fear that this man, running for president of the United States of American. may be anti-american. It's scary, how can we turn this around?
Mr Obama is a "Manchurian Candidate" and he will hopefully will not be elected and activated to do whatever horror is hidden waiting to be activated.
I am astounded that these black religionists have no problem admitting to hate
speech within their churches. And they wonder why racisms continues. Perhaps the problem is THEY won't let go of it. It's almost like a built-in excuse for failure. "I can't succeed because the white man is holding me down..." Then when blacks do succeed, like Colin Powell or Condi Rice they're called Uncle Toms or sell-outs. Whitney Houston was accused of singing "too white." To be honest, I don't understand blacks, and it's not because I don't want to. It's because they make it so hard.
That's absurd. Furthermore, this new "minister" is as bad, perhaps even worse (if that's possible) and I haven't heard Obama distance himself from this hatefilled creature either. Forget it. There's nothing Obama could say to redeem himself. For me, this is a complete deal-breaker.
It certainly looks to me like there is a double standard being played in the black church community. These pastors/preachers can speak of racism, swearing, using the "N" word and discrimination towards the white community or certain individuals but when it comes to whites saying even anything close to what black pastors preach........it is racist and all he_ _ breaks loose. That is pure hypocritical. The Don Imus situation is just one example. How about the comedian name Richard who used the "N" word repeatedly? I know who to vote for in the general election now.
Some will blindly believe whatever Obama says, but I know it's all B.S.!
I think the difference in how Obama talks about Imus Verses his pastor shows that there is always spin in politics, but for me anyway I do not think it makes him a bad person anymore than I think Clinton is for messing up on the comment about being under fire while visiting Bosnia, it is part of the game of politics these days, and how things are handled. Don't think there is not spin on both sides. I wish that one day we as a people who are the ones who vote them in or out are offered candidates we think are without spin. For now as good as these candidates are they all are playing this spin game. Bottom line when this is all said and done, the American People want change and that is what will count no matter how much spin is going on now.
Greta, I think you are an embarasment to the journalism profession. Let me remind your viewers that if Obama drops out of the race, you will become jobless. Go back to school and adhere your the journalistic ethics.
YOU ARE VERY PARTISAN AND HYPOCRITICAL!!!
IF I WERE CHILD, I WILL BE ASHAMED OF YOU!!!
I'm tired of hearing "Equality Equality Equality." These people don't want equality. They want superiority. I'm interested in seeing how many times Obama changes his position on the issue by November.
Obama is lying trhu his teeth. He has been polished and groomed for the presidency by muslim factors directly or indirectly. he is arrogant, a fake and a ver dangerous man. we should all be very wary of this fake.
Not only is it hyporcritical, there is a difference between Imus and Wright. Imus is an entertainer; Wright was a "mentor", spiritual leader.... etc.
Wright should be held to a higher standard.
I don't beleive anything he says. He's a hypocrite, with very poor judgement. And not only about Wright, but Rezko and Ayers!
America doesn't need a President like this. We deserve better.
Greta please get off this subject so much. I like and respect you but you need to get on to something else. Why not attack the other two? yes you are doinf too much. You need to get some sensitivity; write me I have a biracial daughter who feels Barack speaks to her like no other. By the way my mother could have ben his grandmother.
Wright (I refuse to call him Reverand) preaches hate and discontent, Obama was and is listening and therefore is a poor choice for President or even Dog Catcher!!
Liar, liar pants on fire! Once he is elected he will pull back the curtain and Jesse Jackson and Sharpton will take their place. Does this man really expect us to believe that in twenty years of sitting under this man the only outrageous comments he ever made were those offered up in recent days? We're not stupid; we've already lived through the Clinton years!
Obama is a liar. He did not even answer Barbara Walters question...and he clearly was squirming like a worm that he is.
Obama is a racist. He sure spouted off about Don Imus but is making ALL kinds of excuses for that nut job Wright and so are every single black preacher and reporter!
IM SICK AND TIRED OF THE 'IM BLACK, SO THE WORLD OWES ME' ATTITUDE
Obama says Wright's beliefs can be excused because of his generation; would he excuse a white racist for the same reason/ i doubt it.
obama's a big liar....
Obama is the biggest hypocrite I've ever seen. He needs to make a appearance on the No Spin Zone! I really think he is just a big liar and trying to cover his tracks. The truly American people, I hope are smart enough to see through him.
Not only is he hypocritical...he is beyond belief, or ...what was it "her highness" said about words being suspended ???
This man represents all that is bad in this country.
He was really lying. Did you notice he had NO tele-promter therefore
he studdered so much while trying to explain. His explaination was
just plain irresponsible.
Obama only has backed off because Rev. Wright was exposed.There is no way I will be convinced that Obama did not know about these vile, hateful diatribes until the videos became public. What else does Obama support that we will not know about until he is in a position to do real damage.
oh no! i have a feeling we have another" slick willy " in our midst
people are finally realizing that obama is nothing more than a politician.
also just to get it off my chest. howard dean has to be the biggest moron on the planet.
Obama knows the blacks would eventually BURY HIM! What else does he keep Sharpton and Jackson - All these complaining black leaders only perpetuate the 'the world owes me' attitude!
How ironic - all that dodging so that an idiot like wright come along and put a stick in Obamas heart.
OBAMA IS A LIER - DON'T VOTE FOR HIM .. I for one wont' be
Obama is a racist but his Hawaii upbringing did not bring it on. Did EVERYONE FORGET his lawyer wife Michelle grew up in Chicago. I bet my paycheck she introduced him to the Reverend (I use this word loosely) Wrights church after she married him or right before.
GRETA, have the reporters find out HOW LONG MICHELLE OBAMA's and HER FAMILY have been going to Rev ( I use this word loosely also) Wright's church!!! He sat in the pew for 20 years listening to anti-White, anti-Jewish comments. He and Michelle allowed their 2 daughters to listen to it. HOW LONG HAS MICHELLE OBAMA AND HER FAMILY BEEN ATTENDING WRIGHTS CHURCH IN CHICAGO???????
He lies so much. After all those years of listening to the pastor, why didn't he stop going to that church. I have left several churches because of the way the pastor preached. I expect he will be lying once again about something even bigger. He should not be running for President.
Why ask such a question? Imus is white. He is guilty, to Obama.
Wright is black. He is not guilty.
Is this hypocritical?
duh.
Obama is one of the smoothest liars i've ever seen or heard, fortunately no one is buying it. the results of this survey confirm it.
I think if Obama actually told the truth, his beliefs would not be much difference than Rev. Wrights. We need to be afraid, very afraid.
Enough. All of you grow up. Stop whipping the dead horse. My opinion will not sway you, nor yours, mine. Those of you without opinions - shame on you! Let us listen to what they have to say, and have our final word, like true adults, in Novemeber. Personally, I'm sick of this topic and the time that'w been devoted to it.
I think Mr. Obama is feeding us a line of BS a mile long....And I have this to say ....BS is cheap and it also stinks...
Coincidence that he retired????? I Don't think so!!!!
Sen. Obama is tryint with words to rise above something he's mired so deeply in. It won't work; is so easy to see through.
His true colors are showing. The longer this goes on the more unelectable he becomes. It made him sound like he was lying. It's a shame. Ther's no doubt that he will lose the general election if he is the nominee. All that talk about good judgement, hope and unity blew up in his face! He's clearly lying and can't be trusted with our nation!
Obama is the master of the twisted response and looks you right in the eye while he suckers you----a talented charlatan
To use a phrase Obama likes, he (Obama) is a typical Democrat.
What else needs to be said.
Obama was clearly lying as his STUTTERING was ridiculous. Imagine If Obama is in a difficult political situation with another nation and stutters. This "man" is not qualified to be a Senator, much less President. Are the pickings so slim that we are faced with such a joke as a presidential candidate? His back peddaling with Rev. Wright is beyond reprehensible. His past choices of 20 plus years speak volumes. He is the worst.
Sen. Obama is tryint with words to rise above something he's mired so deeply in. It won't work; is so easy to see through.
Obama was a member of that church in name only for the purpose of elevating himself in the black political community.
I doubt seriously he attended church on a regular basis.
However, he knew exactly what the pastor thought on the subjects of 9/11, AIDS, etc. His pastor wasn't the only one who thought this way. Obviously, there were many other members thinking the same way.
You mean to tell me that after 9/11 he didn't want to know what his pastor thought of this horrific event?
You mean to tell me that after 9/11 other church congregants didn't say Obama, Obama what's going on? What is the government doing about this?
Wasn't he an Illinois senator at the time?
LIAR.
Almost nothing is known of his parents and his own upbringing. Is he hiding this from the media?
_He is a racist for setting there for twenty years ,and is wife and children ,and were is the rezko story ?
Sen. Obama is tryint with words to rise above something he's mired so deeply in. It won't work; is so easy to see through.
I'm very confused about seperation of church and state is now and where are the ACLU idiots. If this were a white issue they would be screaming.
I feel it's newsworthy that why the ACLU is not getting involved.
Casey

Imus was wrong but he is not running for the highest office in the land. B. O. wants to be our president. I think not.
Obama is a hypocrit and the mainstream media thinks they can push him into office. I wouldn't vote for him for dog catcher. After listening to the black preachers tonight saying this is what goes on in black churches, maybe they need to rethink how they preach.
I would say Obama's respose is more laughable than hypocritical. Who does he think he is kidding?
OBAMA SUCKS! to bad the lame students (College kids) do not realize it, he is a marksus POS!
It really is sad for America that this trash is even in a position to become President. How daft are we to even consider voting in this guy. He is a liar and will say anything to get the nomination. If Obama becomes Preisdent I leave America.
Obama is just crazy, but not crazier than Hillary, at least not until we let him win the nomination.
black people are the real racists in this country.that is the bottom line...
dear greta,
i think obama is a very dangerous man. i havent heard this much about racism in this country for many many years. i dont him or hillary because of what i think they will do to this country but at this point i would vote for hillary before i would even think about voting for obama.
here is a good question to ask the viewers,,, if all the people that have supported obama thus far had heard these statements from his pastor before they voted for him would they still support him? this may be one reason why hillary hasnt given up yet because she knows something that we dont.
thank you greta and thank you fox news for keeping us all informed.
sincerely,

God Help Us!! Please don't let this man be President. He does not love Ammerica.
Not all Black churches are the same. Media has yet to interview a respectable Black minister concerning this issue. A few such ministers are Bishop T.D. Jakes, Bishop Eddie Long and Dr. Creflo Dollar. However, they may not want to take part in this.
Barack is a liar and a muslim. He initimidates anyone that disagees with him. If he could stop going to the church now after the rev. got caught saying the things why couldn't he stop when the rev. was still the pastor? He can't make this better. This goes beyond rev. Wright. They needed to get Wright out of town before too much got out. Come on Gretta
Get real Greta, Obama lies as good as the Clintons. He's a racist and no wonder he has been endorsed by the "New Black Panthers". Rev. Wright retired? Bull. I thought Wright took a sabatical. Probably to take the heat off the official Black candidate. We are all getting screwed by CBS, ABC, NBC, MSNBC, CNN and all the other liberal media that wants Obama elected and will hide the truth to assure that the filth is filtered
scott...I never thought MLK was a great man...he was simpley an adulter. now I find out he was a racist adulter..
I think he is a hypocrit plus a liar as the week prior his "GREAT SPEECH", he said he never heard any of Rev. Wrigtht's remarks, then in the speech he said he did hear some of Wright's sermons! What's the truth, does he know? I sure don't and there's no way he will convince me on anything he says!
He continues to spin a lot of spin into something that he should have accepted was a mistake and misjudgment on his part. Give him enough rope and he will find himself stuck in it not ever to get out. He is by all indications showing that he is not capable of reasonable judgment in decision making. A grade school child can see through the whole thing. He is talking through his hat.
OBAMA HAS SO MANY PEOPLE FOOLED, IT MAKES ME SICK. HE THINKS HE'S SO GREAT, WAIT TILL THE REPULICANS GET AHOLD OF HIM IN THE GENERAL ELECTION. I THINK THE REPULICANS ARE VOTING FOR HIM IN THE PRIMARIES BECAUSE THEY KNOW THEY CAN BEAT HIM IN THE GENERAL ELECTION. THOSE SAME REPUBLICANS WILL VOTE FOR THEIR OWN NOMINEE IN THE GENERAL ELECTION.

On the View, Mr. Obama stated that Rev. Wright was "caught in a time warp". With that statement, where does that put Mr. Obama since he was a member for 20 years in this time warp?
Greta, your show is getting BORING, all you bring in is black people whom you know are going to side with Pastor Wright. Why don't you bring in some of Hillary's supporters so we can get to some other topics. You are giving Obama way too much air time!
Why did Obama attend Trinity for twenty years if he never listened to what Wright was saying? Why would Obama expose (presumably) his impressionable child to this hatemongering? What was all the mentoring about for two decades? Obviously Jeremiah Wright has a racist attitude, was this not apparent to Obama in all of their conversations? Truly disingenious and not what I'd hope for in a President.
How can someone hear a "Person Of God" say " G-D America" mulitple times and then say the words were taken out of context!!!
There is no way that Senator Obama did not hear Rev. Wright's outrageous comments. Another thing that struck me was that he referred to Wright as only as his preacher, when he clearly referred to him as an "old uncle" in his speech while throwing the grandmother under the bus. He is back tracking and lying for damage control.

It is totally unbelievable that Obama never heard one racist remark from Wright over the last 20 years. At the minimum, at least one church member would have spoken to Obama about some of the racist comments that were being spoken....
The citizens in my community are reeling from all this. We believe that there is no way Obama could have been in this church for 20 years and not have heard Rev. Wright's racist and anti-American sermons. God Bless Us (Americans) if Obama gets in the white house.
I thinhk we are starting to see the real Obama. he has flown under the wire this whole time and we see that he is actually a politician like all the other politicians. He waffles likes the rest of them. Whenever he is cornered, he changes his story to try and satisfy whomever is calling him out. Please do not vote for this gentleman. God Bless the USA.
These black preachers are what's keeping racism going. Mr. Wright is a RACIST himself!! Where is Jesse Jackson and Sharpton when the whites are being victimized?
Obama still won't disown the Rev. and is making excuses for him. Remember, actions speak louder than words. If we are all equal, we should all be judged by the same standards. Treat others the way you want to be treated Rev. Would you like someone calling you a Garlic Nose?
We have to be very careful with him, he doesn't even know how to solve this situation, he makes it worse every times he tries to clear it!!
Please keep on this and continue to talk about Obama and his racist anti-Semitic pastor.I feel like I'm in the twitlight zone. If a white person had been tolerating and absorbing this hate speech for 20 yrs they would be OUT of the race and OUT of the party they represent. This is a double standard. Obama either has poor judgment or is a liar...or both. Thank you Greta! God bless and keep up the great work! You're fair and honest and you need to keep digging for the truth!
I had high hopes for Obama. Now he's nothing but your typical tinhorn politician, that will say anything or do anything to get elected. I wouldn't consider him for dog catcher now. What Imus said doesn't come up to what the purported reverend said.
What Wright said was of historical context, whereas what Imus said were insults about the out appearance of blacks (nappy head) that they have no control over. Imus was outright using derogatory name-calling hurtful words, vs. Wright's discussion on comparing America to biblical history.
Besides, these were not Obama's words or his beliefs.
For Obama it is time to give the devil his due. He needed a base from which to launch his political career. That base was the black community in Chicago and he needed Rev. Wright to establish his credibility with the community. He knew what he was getting into them but doesn't want to pay the bill now!
Obama's a LIAR - period. Total hypocrite, desperately trying to spin like he always does. He's stepped in his own poo-poo, again.
I am hispanic catholic and have attended many black american communities churches due to my work. Those preachers that spoke on your clip today are the minority of what is being said in black communities churches. Hopefully people will really see what Obama is really about. I will not call him a liar or hipocrite because I will not judge. How can you attend a church for 20 years and not know your pastor's preaching habits. Is this what we want for a president and nothing to do with being black or white but all to do with integrity and respect for our country.
I want to know why he was only considering leaving the church AFTER Rev Wright's racist comments were brought to the attention of the general public. Now he "conviently" dosen't have to leave because Wright has retired. Obama knew all along about Wright's recist views.
Obama dodged this question just like he has with the majority of the questions that he has been asked. When you watch him in debates with Hillary Clinton, he will paraphrase what Hillary says after she answers questions or will reply with the same rhetoric over and over, again. He does not have original ideas. The worst mistake Obama made was not denouncing Rev. Wright as a man and not just his venomous comments. This issue will not be swept under the rug and won't be forgotten by the voters. He is living by his own double standard when he condemns Don Imus and not Rev. Wright. Don Imus made one isolated regrettable comment. Rev. Wright made numerous comments that were inflammatory and was not apologetic for any of them.
Did you notice today in Obama's remarks on the View, Obama said America is good, even with all her faults. He is not a proud American and he wants to be President???????????????????????
Obama is such a pile of self-serving baloney! At this point, I think he'd say anything to get elected. And it's preachers like Wright who keep the "race card" and the "victim card" constantly in play, which only serves to keep their own people down and out. Pretty sick and pathetic, to say the least.
I think people are focusing way too much on this. What if Greta you could be fired if you did not agree or disagree with your boss??????????? on a similar issue. In a way this is what is happening to Barak. One can't be held accountable for what someone else says. Should he leave the church, NO!
You are beating it to death...you are encouraging folks to believe the lies that are being spread about him. I think we in this country need to have a frank discussion on race relations. We whites have not treated blacks well in the past and they have real pain from it.
Perhaps if your race had been abused for years and years and discriminated against, treated poorly and deprived, perhaps you could overlook your ministers view...and forgive him...Blacks have only been free (if we can call it that) for 40 years.
I am white and 65
come on obama playing with voters hart..cant u see dat...he thinks voters r stupid.dats all....if some boby sitting in the church 4 23years think...............i think he thinks we are stupid..........dats all. and cnn.dont talk about them because they r so obama.........peopel...
Obama was a member of that church in name only for the purpose of elevating himself in the black political community.
I doubt seriously he attended church on a regular basis.
However, he knew exactly what the pastor thought on the subjects of 9/11, AIDS, etc. His pastor wasn't the only one who thought this way. Obviously, there were many other members thinking the same way.
You mean to tell me that after 9/11 he didn't want to know what his pastor thought of this horrific event?
You mean to tell me that after 9/11 other church congregants didn't say Obama, Obama what's going on? What is the government doing about this?
Wasn't he an Illinois senator at the time?
LIAR.
I am saddened at the lack of truth of the black ministers defending Rev.Wright. Does anyone remember how Rev. Jerry Falwell was treated when he said 911 was the judgement of God on America's sins?! He was crucified!!! Did Obama have a comment about him?
All of this makes me sick. Obama is two faced and would make a terrible president. All that I am hearing that goes on in black churches affends me and I feel very diffenen't about the black view of this country. It makes me fearful.
Did Obama personally hear Imus say what he did or did Obama just hear the soundbite of Imus played over and over again on TV news shows?????
What the difference? OBAMA SAID HE NEVER PERSONALLY HEARD REV. WRIGHT..... what was said WAS SAID!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WRONG IS WRONG.......OBAMA !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Barack Obama's interview on The View proves once again that he does not have the integrity, principles, judgment or honesty required to be President. His cheap declaration that he would leave the church if Jeremiah Wright had not retired is an entirely meaningless statement. It requires no action, cannot be tested for veracity, and stands in stark contrast to Obama's condemnation of Don Imus last year when he demanded Imus be fired for his comments.
I'm not sold on McCain, I hate Hillary and God help us all if Obama is elected.
Mr. Obama should be ashamed to go on national TV and give that hypocritical response! He would have quit the Church if Reverend Wright would not have retired; but, he didn't quit after 20 years of racist, un-American remarks?? Give me a break~!! How stupid does he think we are?
Stupid fox news! You do not have anything else to report about-We know the attack on Dr Wright is attack on Obama-shame on you geta wnad your colleagues-focus on the economy and the other impotant stuff-No matter how much you try to bring Obama down GOD WILL LIFT HIM UP. You ought to be ashamed of yourself. You are just saying things for the sake and heck of it...just to tarnish Obama. Everbbody knows he is telling the truth..SHAME ON YOU FOX!! SHAME
Everyone one makes mistakes ... but Senator Obama is simply being what he is ... a politician running for office. It was hypocritical in every sense of the word.
I am tired of hearing what has been said is being 'taken out of context' be a man and say I said it and I mean it
Obama has set us back racially to the 60's. He clearly will not unite the country and his eloquent speeches will eventually become very transparent. He is obviously very racial.
Remember Hitler was a great speaker also.
Barack is a liar and a muslim. He initimidates anyone that disagees with him. If he could stop going to the church now after the rev. got caught saying the things why couldn't he stop when the rev. was still the pastor? He can't make this better. This goes beyond rev. Wright. They needed to get Wright out of town before too much got out. Come on Gretta dig a little you will find more out. If Obama was confident he will win the nomination he wouldn't be wanting Hillary to get out. We will not quit.
Hillary is not a racist Obama is, Bill Clinton is americas 1st Black President. Hillary needs to remind the african American community that she is married to Americas Blac president. Besides he is a ladies man. Awesome!
As a liberal voter from SF, I am totally DISGUSTED. If he gets the
nod I will vote for McCain. He's a disgrace to this election process.
The media has determined that Obama is the annointed one. I'm afraid that he's the antiChrist. Lord save us from this man. And why do blacks want to have black churches? So they can practice their racism without the whites knowing what they're doing. Whites can't have white churches...the blacks would have a fit. Besides, I'm kind of partial to having all colors in my church.
Obama lied to young voters in the primaries todate. I hope his followers now know the "TRUTH" about Obama's. They do not LOVE America. They have a secret agenda that will reduce our economy and national security to a level worse than Kenya!!!
This all goes to show that you can fool some of the people some of the time but Most of the people, NOT!
There is no way he can win in Nov. they will tear him apart.
I was going to Vote democrat in November for Obama or Clinton but if Obama is the nominee I will vote Republican.
Judgment
Yea Scott is done. Obama is clearly a hypocritical socailist, liar, and though he does a decent job of hiding it . I believe he has some racist tendencies. We need only look at the people he has associated with througout his life. Research it, it is really stunning.
All the Christians I know are shocked with the "Christianity" of these "speeches" (not sermons) by Wright. What truth are they talking about? Is it the "truth" as they see it coming from their traumas? A real Christian would say "get some inner healing". Jesus Christ was a white Jew. Is he included in the hate expressed in these speeches for whites and Jews? Jesus said "I am the Truth". Wrighjt's words are not true, they are lies. As Paul Tillick said: "Love makes justice just".
What a crock! Racism is racism, black or white. Please note the American flags when Obama speaks but no American Flag on his lapel, still. A note from history, only 4.4% of African slaves came to the colonies/United States from 1450 to 1900 yet the impression is that the slave trade was created for the southern plantations and that white Americans (not the Europeans) are to carry the guilt. The statistics can be found on the Internet with very little effort. BTW, 35% of the slave trade went to Brazil! Let's get over it and move forward together to build a great nation and condemn those who spew hate!
The day the Imus story blew up was the day Obama was supposed to be a guest on the Imus show. Obama never showed up .. nor did he call the Imus show to say he wasn't going to appear. Imus kept announcing that he hoped Obama was ok. It seems Obama has a habit of doing that when he doesn't want to address something .. like not voting for a Bill. That type of behavior is like that of a spoiled child.
Don't vote for or support Obama. Deval Patrick was an empty suit preaching the same message of "hope" and "change" in Massachusetts...and he had pictures with Obama in his TV spots. Deval Patrick was the dress rehearsal for Obama's campaign and he hasn't done anything good for Massachusetts except pass a law making it MANDATORY to purchase health insurance and berated the state legislature for not spending more money and not rubber-stamping his agenda through. He's been HORRIBLE in Massachusetts. If this is what we get with hope and change, I'll take misery and the same old stuff any day of the week. I don't see their big, glorious agendas changing my life. One ordinary young guy's opinion. Obama probably wanted to see how badly Deval could B.S. Massachusetts voters. It worked...and the liberals of this state are getting what they deserve...and those of us who didn't vote for him are getting it anyways.
I do noy understand what is happening to my country. With so much racism by black people for so long, and so much crime by them, and so many black kids having kids and that are havings kids and so on.. and I am paying, so much hatered, so much corruption by Jesse jackson and many more, and such horrific drain of funds from the Health & Human Services that should go to us the career prof. and tax payers and the US citizens..... I am so sad.
Greta, it is so unbelievable how the American people are mesmorized by this Obama! The Obama girl joke and so many other silly things. We have important issues at stake and here the country needs to wake up to this very dangerous young man who COULD become our next President! Thanks for keeping this on the forefront.....Scary!! LOve your show!
Obama is trying to distance himself from Rev. Wright only because he is on the hot seat. He should have left that church 19 years ago. He is trying to cover his lies with more lies. I think he and his family heard a lot more than he is willing to admit. Just look at Mrs. Obama attitude. It reflects Wright's so called preaching. God help those little girls.
If this is what the Black Churches are all about, and with them all running to Wright's side to protect him, then it look to me that the black church is built on hate. Also Obama is not to be trusted.
From the movie "Chicago" All you have to do is "Razzle Dazzle them," of which Barrack Obama may be the King of the Razzle Dazzlers.
Only Obama is fooling himself and wouldn't know the truth if he was sitting on it. Naturally he is going to deny it since he wants to become President and the people in the U.S. better wake up since he has sold out his Pastor just to become President....Wait until the election is over and if he wins, I predict that all these people that are jumping and screaming when he enters the room will be jumping and screaming because he is not the person he presents himself to be.....
I'd like to knwo how much Obama contributed to Wright's church! Where your money is, there is your heart (although the Obama's don't donate much to charity--they leave that to the Republicans!). Greta--please expose what Black Liberation Theology is really about!
ONE QUESTION - HOW LONG WOULD MCCAIN LAST IF HIS PREACHER SAID SOMETHING RACIST AGAINST BLACKS??!!!
HE WOULD BE GONE FOR GOOD ... WHY DON'T WE APPLY THE SAME POLICY TOWARDS BLACKS? IS IT OKAY FOR BLACKS TO BE RACISTS BUY NOT WHITES? BULLSHIT!!!
I agree witch #7. GET OVER IT!!!!!!!!
Greta,
Thank you for not dropping this VERY important subject. It's sad that the one thing that our country is infamous for will destroy us. DEMOCRACY. We cannot let that man (Obama) any closer to the white house.
#60 Beth - You need some serious counseling on those running to run our Country dear friend. Please, do some more investigating!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"Change" He always said "America needs to be Changed". He will change everything...and time to change. May be "White House"will be named "Black House" ladies and gentlemen...
He is a liar...the bottom line!
I think Obama is caught in something he was very comfortable with until this was exposed. Shame on him.
Obama is such a liar and a racist. I don't understand why more Americans are not seeing him for what he is???? ARE YOU ALL BLIND and DEAF????
This man sat in that so-called church for 20 years listening to a MADMAN...you honestly believe he did not come away with those same thoughts??? He embraces Wright and if becomes President watch him invite that NUT to the "Black" house.
Do Americans really want this liar and racist as President and do they want his Un-American wife as first lady????????????????
I didn't know they did the Texas two-step in Illinois.... Sorry Senator OBAMA , I was paying attention and you lost this potential cross-over vote.
What Wright said was of historical context, whereas what Imus said were insults about the outer appearance of blacks (nappy head) that they have no control over. Imus was outright using derogatory name-calling hurtful words, vs. Wright's discussion on comparing America to biblical history. Besides, these were not Obama's words or his beliefs.
Did Obama personally hear Imus say what he did or did Obama just hear the soundbite of Imus played over and over again on TV news shows?????
What the difference? OBAMA SAID HE NEVER PERSONALLY HEARD REV. WRIGHT..... what was said WAS SAID!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WRONG IS WRONG.......OBAMA !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My opinion of Senator Obama has changed 180 degrees; what I once liked, I now don't trust at all. Hypocritical? You bet. This man is 100% pure B.S. Hillary gets my vote (and I'm a registered Republican).
The man certainly is trying to live in 1850, I feel that he is not in anyway
ready to be our president. Please get in the current century.
If the black people who feel the way that Rev. Wright does would understand
that they have the same equal rights as white people maybe the blacks would
be able to prosper in the USA. THE ONLY THING HOLDING THE BLACKS OF
TODAY BACK IS THEMSELVES ALONG WITH THEIR DEMOCRATIC LEADERS.
I am tired of listening to the poor black story, what about the poor white
story? There are rich black people and rich white people - so shut up already.
Just what are these afro-american folks preaching? Sounds like black arrogance to me. This is supposed to be christian stuff?? Not in the church I grew up in in or in my version of the Bible!
If Imus had said similar hateful things about the Senator - EVERY black preacher would have been even more geometrically outraged than they were with the Rutgers incident! Equal rights are not SPECIAL rights! The standards must apply uniformly! Why is it that if 4 whites beat up a black it is a hate crime (which it should be),but whe 4 black teens kill a white Phladelphia Starbucks manager, it is just "a random act af violence"? We need to end the hypocrocy and apply the Law and our rights consistenly, color-blind and blindfolded, as the Lady Justice is portrayed!!!
I really believe that when it comes down to the General Election, the one that really counts, enough Americans will think twice before voting for OBAMA and JohnMcCain will be elected if OBAMA is the Democrat running. God is too smart to allow this country to elect him.
No way is this country going to be handed over to OBAMA. Can youo just imagine what a disgrace he would be and how they will mess up the White House.
Guyz its easy to point fingers on other peoples mistakes but not your own. can each one of you search their souls and just ask God for forgiveness because you are judging! Remember you ain't father in Heaven... Let God take charge of America. By all those abusive comments you are just sinning the same way you are blaming Him. Remember sin is sin... even if its adultry or an insult. God bless you all
I was an Obama supporter but I have been eternally disappointed with him on his frickle mindedness. He has raised some serious doubts. I have heard reports which suggests that the main reason he stuck on to his church is because it was a medium to gain momemtum in the chicago political scenario and eventually lay the foundation for his political ambition. He has definitely lost my trust. This underlies his very commitment to being transparent and truthful.
This man is not to be trusted. His followers do not see him for what he is and we are on a path to destruction if he is elected. I thought I was the only one who was thinking of him as the antichrist but I'm happy to see I'm not.
20 years in the same church. "BULL" It's kinda like going to a restaurant.If you like the menu you will go back. If you don't you won't. I believe it's obvious that he liked the "menu"! What does that say about Obama? He believes Pastor White's words or he wouldn't be there.
Typical black racism
I think OBAMA is exaggerating he never heard Wright's sermons. A decent man would have walked out of that church. If it was anyother church or temple we would have been called racists etc. etc. At least IMUS apologized for his slip of the tongue. Poor us if this OBAMA ever is our PRESIDENT.
b hussein obama is a filthy savage. Thank you nigger wright.........you just saved this country a lot of trouble.
McCain will lead us to victory over the muslim (obama) savages
Obama is a liar! Imus was screwed, "Dog, the Bounty Hunter was screwed AFTER a private conversation was made public....Jeremiah Wright ( I refuse to call him a pastor) retires so everything he spews out is ok??? UNBELIEVABLE!! Obama says he didn't know about the comments, now he says he knew about "some" of the comments?? Knowing about only ONE comment is one too much!! So what is it Barack, did you know or didn't you!!! The man is lying his way to the White House!!!!
It is absolutely amazing the knit-picking that is taking place regarding this man's presidential campaign. So many in this country prove themselves racist and culturally biased every single day. Not just on Sundays during a sermon. I am certain that many white churh goers attend church that offers a klansman in the pulpit. To suggest that Barack Obama distance himself from and denounce Reverend Wright is hypocritical on the parts of ALL who suggest it...Should African Americans be concerned that White America has not denounced in a LOUD enough voice the institution of slavery? Should Black America be concerned that the klan still exists and that the United States of America that does not consider Racism to be against the law? Who do you think you are dealing with? No one is that stupid any more. You point the finger at Barack Obama because of someone he has no control over and go so far as to say that as a president he would not be good for this country because of something that someone who is not even related to him by blood has said? WoW...What a backward bunch of idiots we must look like to the rest of the world, but then again that does not matter since we tend to deal with the rest of the world as though our SH** doesn't stink...
You associate yourself with people who are like you. Period. Obama has surrounded himself with undesirable people for quite awhile: Rezko, Bill Ayers of the WeatherUnderground, ties with Auchi, Meeks, and whomever else hasn't yet been discovered. His wife has said on more than one instance her less than desirable "thought" of what she thinks of America as well. There is something very disturbing about who this guy really is and what he stands for. I only hope more vetting is done prior to him being anointed as the Dem nominee. He scares me!
The media is not doing enough to cover the hypocrisy of this man who wants to be president of this country. Keep up the good work, Fox! You are the only ones we can trust to keep it right.
Democrats are so desperate to get back to the White House they will believe this bs from this man. Personally I don't believe anything he says for one second. I do trust his wife when she said she had never been proud of this country until now. We can see where she was coming from with that.The more Obama talks about his pastor and his church, the deeper he gets in his lies.
Gentlemen and ladies wake up, love your country and lets love one another. The native indians are the original born american. Everyone here in the USA is an immigrant. Listen to Limbaugh, i see hate and so applies for most of you. God save your soul
It is a pity that the more this rhetoric goes on the more he has to do the CYA thing and it doesn't work for him, nor his opponent because she has the same problem.
Obama keeps saying the preacher has retired. He only stepped down so his sermons wouldn't cause trouble for Obama. Don't you think that if Obama becomes President the preacher will be his religious leader??? Obama says himself that he can't disown preacher Wright. Doesn't that tell us something??
Obama's spouce in her speech called herself to be proud for the first time in her life and she calls Americans lazy,... Doesn't this say somthing about what Obama and his family really believe? is it hard to see the big picture.
I am a democrat but this year no matter the outcome of this primary, I will be voting for Mccain if he chooses Romney as his VP. If this is all democrats have to offer then this nation would be in much deeper trouble if either Obama or Hillary become president of United States.
By Billie: 03-28 I don't understand. I always thought a Church taught Love, Compassion, Faith. What happened to that in that church, & the others from what the supposed (pastors) are talking about. No wonder the kids are behaving like they are. They are being taught HATE. I am really surprised at the churches & what they are evidently teaching. They are worse than the people who were actually slaves. How sad I feel for them. I do Not think Jesus would approve of what is being said. If we want to live in peace, why don't they.
Baloney! Quit dancing around the pinhead and tell the truth!
I am a Republican so I will not be voting for either one of the Dems but I hope like hell that Hillary beats Obama. She would if they would leave her alone or at least be fair about everything between the two of them. Hillary's lies hurt her. Obama's lies hurt us all.
Don't count me in with those who say MLK was a great man, Scott. I do have respect for Juan Williams.
He's a hypocrite of the worst kind! He's saying whatever he thinks he has to in order to best help his campaign; how can anyone who is so blatantly speaking a lie possibly represent our country's best ineterest. His lie shows him to be in sympathy with Reverend Wright whom he admitted was "like an uncle". It makes me sick to think of Senator Obama being entrusted with the most powerful position in the world.
THIS IS THE TYPICAL LOGIC THAT BLACKS USE TO PREMOTE RACIAL BIAS TOWARDS WHITES AND JUSTIFY THERE RACISIM, IT SICKENS ME!
Very hypocritcal, but what do I know, I'm just a typical white guy.
Barrack Obama is unable to look beyond color. Don Imus was thrown to the wolves because even in this day and age no-one can joke about blacks unless you are black. If you want to be soo thin skinned and racially divisive you are not qualified to be President of the United States. You can however be President of the Nonunited States. You are getting tough on him Greta but not tough enough. The Media are walking all over eggshells for this guy and doing a huge disservice to all Americans. YOU ARE ON THE FRONTLINE and must ask the HARD questions....
Also What a joke when he was on the VIEW !!!!!! They literally were orgasmic about him. I did not see Elizabeth H. being tough on him.. The View is a Joke....
#73 Andrea - May I ask than WHY you are hear?
Obama is flip-flopping so bad, it's pathetic! He clearly knew what his former Pastor stood for, unless he's snoring all througout Pastor Wright's sermon then he can keep saying, "I didn't know or I never hearead about that...yadee-yadee-yadda"
C'mmon, get real!
Very hypocritical. Also its ironic that he says now that wright has retired it automatically dissassocites himself from him. Ha.....not so. What does he have amnesia that he never knew the man.
Don Imus is a radio HOST...He is NOT a spiritual leader and he makes fun of EVERY segment of society...I don't get how you can compare Imus to Reverend Wright..a spiritual leader...it is 'apples and oranges'...there are many racists, bigots, anti-Americans on the radio and in every other medium...but we are TALKING about the Spiritual mentor of a Presidential candidate...what in the world has this to do with Imus at this point. Give me a break...please! Think of a different analogy so sensible people can continue watching your show.
The hypocrisy is that Sen. Clinton said that she would have left her pastor if she were Sen. Obama, but she did not leave her lying cheating husband when he committed adultery in the white house and lied about. She lied about dodging bullets, and yet all of the media is beating on Sen. Obama about what his pastor said. The media attention is just proving the message of Rev. Wright, and showing the ignorance of white America.
Obama wants a race war. Obama is the Anti-Christ. Hear the Word of God. Rise up against the Anti-Christ now, be not fooled.
Obama must have gone to the Elliot school of Hypocracy,
close your eyes and do what you want huh? In Obama world, only a repulican would have been proven to be a liar , Obama I am so sick of your crap.
God only knows what else this guy has lurking around, on top of being a dreamer, and liberal lawyer, he takes manipulation of the english language to a newer height that Bill Clinton would be proud of.
Obama lies period, if we elect this ass, this country deserves to fail, Obama is a professional dream seller, a lair, and a charlatan
It is becoming very apparent why blacks are so racist. If hatred and division are core beliefs racism will never change. They continue to perpetuate hatred and the church participates in this! Now other black churches and preachers are defending Rev. Wright, which tells me we are seeing the true colors of racism. There are MANY exerpst from sermons by the reverend that are racist and anti American, not just one or two. What does this tell us of the judgement of this candidate? I think the world is seeing a new, hidded side of the black community and it isn't pretty.
Greta, I've got one word to define the Rev Wright issue. Booooorrrrring. zzzz zzzzz zzzzzzzzzz. Oops, thats 4 words.
I'll tune back in a month to see if you will cover something interesting again.
Good job Greta! I agree this anti-American indoctrination through a church is very important to expose. All Americans should be very concerned about this. I now understand why "Race" is always such an issue with the Black community. I personally don't think about race at all. I look at the person. However, I don't believe a word Obama says. He comes across very "cold" and arrogant to me.
I think if Obama actually told the truth, his beliefs would not be much difference than Rev. Wrights. We need to be afraid, very afraid.
Obama has been exposed finally. Now he is twisting and turning to get out of it. And the most comical part is all these black chuch leaders are trying to explain it's o.k. to say these things because they all do it. The shame of it all is that all these young people tend to look at it with a blind eye.
Obama is running the biggest con game in the history of American politics. He is a Black Power Nationalist who really wants to bring about a Black Power Revolution in America. One of the major reasons white Americans have been so hoodwinked is that the majority of American journalists have become just as lazy and stupid as most of our country's students. Why has the mainstream media not investigated and exposed the mainstream Black Church in America? This is a huge story and it is being ignored by the very people who the public relies upon for critical information.
Rev Wright is the closest thing to a traitor to America and all it stands for. Why doesn't he stand up and face the music. I think it is because he is a coward when he doesn't have a pulpit and a bunch of blind followers to spew his venom to. He is on the same level as Farrakan to me.
Obama is not showing his true color (a liar, racist-not only to whites but to Asians,
a Socialist) ..the reason he cannot disown Wright ..it's because he agrees with him..he is a hypocrite not fitted to be president.
OBAMA THE TRUTH HURTS. IT IS TIME TO FACE THE MUSIC. ADMIT YOU ARE WRONG AND MOVE ON IF POSSIBLE. GOD BLESS AMERICA
Obama's explanation doesn't even make sense. He said if Rev. Wright hadn't retired he would have left the church. What about the 20 years before Rev. Wright retired? Don Imus should still be off the air and Obama should have left Rev. Wright's church a very long time before his retirement. I definitely will not vote for him.
Each time Senator Obama speaks about this issue, he changes his story. On his interview with Major Garrett, he stated he never heard these statements until the news that day. Then in his speech, he says he knew Wright made controversial statements. Then on The View he says he knew of "some" of them. He even admitted that Wright is different from Imus because he was retiring. We all know that he knew about it when he announced his run. I guess it depends on which way the wind blows, which story he tells. This man can not tell truth from fiction.
obama is a first rate hippocrit and a liar . he changes his colour like a chemeleon just to suit his purpose . america will suffer if we let this conniving liar lead the country come november . rise up america and unite for the sake of our children damn the left wings . damn the liars and hippocrits .
I'm black and I am saying that for a reason. Please white America believe me when I say that MOST black churches DO NOT ( I repeat ) DO NOT preach the racist BS that Rev. Wrong and B(ad)O(ption) advocate. I have been to many black churches and NONE have spewed this bologna that this idiot has. They are making black people look even worse than we already do. Furthermore, even before the Rev. Wrong debachal, I would have NEVER voted for Obama because I recognized from the jump that he was nothing but a two bit hustler saying what people wanted to hear and being full of ish! I am DUMBFOUNDED that so many people ( white people included ) fell for that lame hustle. But at least now the truth is out and I hope that America is wise enough to send that jackarce back under the rock from which he (and his raggedy reverend) came from! GO HILLARY!!!!!!
I understand an injustice has been done to the Black community over the years but that doesn't excuse that same community for doing the very thing they are accusing Whites of doing. Being Black shouldn't give you a pass on poor behavior but it seems to. IMO the African-American community is it's own worse enemy and they are being held down by their attitude and leaders who will lose everything if there were no hate.
Hate is hate no matter who is doing the hating but Black hate gets a pass and even the hint of White hate, even if it's not there causes everyone to want to destroy that person or group.
Lies, Lies, I wonder what his agenda really is?
Most blacks are using the "we all say offensive statements" every once in a while. I agree Imus should of been reprimanded, and he paid for his statements. The same goes for Obama's pastor...Obama should have distanced himself a long time ago if he was against the statements his pastor made. If he was truly someone who wanted to unite this country, he would not have attended Wright's church for 20 years. There's too many signs that go along with this such as him not wearing an American pin and throwing his typical white grandmother under the bus.
Obama has "mis-spoke' just like Hillary, but the main stream news media refuses to report it because he is there elected one. They all believe the U.S. is great because of it's goverment, NOT because of it's people. People need to wake up, learn what our fore fathers warned us about and why, and then study the canidate , for all offices and get us out of this mess we have elected ourselves into
Greta, Take a poll on "How many voters out there who voted for Obama are changing to Hillray?
Unfortunately,probably the only people who are responding are people like us....thinking that Obama is not being truthful.
Love ya, Greta
What will Obama do if, after this election is over, his pastor decided to come out of retirement. He probably announced his retirement just so that Obama would have less to deal with. However, if Obama is elected President, or even if he is not, will he leave his church if his pastor comes back. And now, his new pastor compares the 'retired' pastor with Christ. Give me a break! I cannot understand how people are so taken with his oratory skills and absolutely refuse to see the forest for the trees. He is a politician and if I want to see politics played as the dirty game it is by ALL who are in it, let me do it with an expert....Hillary Clinton. At least she can do more for the country in an intelligent way than Obama. I cannot believe that after voting for over 50 years, this might be one election I sit out if Clinton is not the Democratic candidate.
I'm in wv and They may call us dumb hillbillies but obama is trying his best to weasle out of this one..... I'm republican but often vote for a democrate , and our senator rocofeller has lost my whole families support for backing obama as a superdelegate.
This is typical of the black cuture - I cannot be a racist if I am a victim of racism thinking. Reverend Wright's comments are far worse. The US government committed genocide by inventing AIDS to kill blacks. Come on!!!
Rev wright is about as much a preacher as a jackass is.
What in the world, could any longer "in context" would excuse such racist hatefull comments & sentiments?????????
WHY DO U ALLOW THEM TO KEEP REPEATING THIS LUDACRIS SPIN???
THERE IS NO* AMOUNT OF ADDITIONAL NONSENCE THAT WOULD REMOTELY CHANGE THE IMPACT OR ATROCIOUS WORDS/BEHAVIOR. THESE PEOPLE ARE
HATE MONGERS, NO****BETTER THEN TERRORISTS.
Obama's response is typical hypocrisy - what does Rev. Wright's "retirement" have to do with anything? This man is a dangerous "wolf in sheep's clothing" and we should be very afraid of his ultra-left wing liberalism and his Socialist propaganda!
OUR FAMILY IS VOTING CLINTON FOR CHANGE!!!!!!
Obama thinks he has dodged a bullet by trying to make the issue something it is not.... this whole issue is about him supporting a racist who yells his hatred from the pulpit.... nothing more and nothing less.... how can feeding on the thoughts of victimhood through sermons be helpful to any race? Pastor Wright has missed out on so much in life by allowing anger to devour his soul... he is a poor messenger for the oppressed and the disenfranchised.... his words just feed into all of their negative feelings rather than sending a message of personal empowerment...
Obama is deceitful who is only 2% African, 44% Arabic, 54% White. We need to keep digging into why he stayed in Reverend Wrights church and why his Pastor and wife are a no-show these days. Do we want someone who has been lying about his family, Reverend, and his past to be our President??
Obama is a "Typical" black from the the world owe's me part of town, I wish America would wake up get this bigot out of office
I am very frightened of the man. Do you notice that they are keeping his wife out of sight, lately? Are they afraid she will say something more stupid than what he is saying, like how she is not proud of the United States. What a couple that so many want to put in the White House and the media is leading the pack. Where can we get some straight facts on what this family really believes about this countrY?????
Obama is afraid. As a black candidate for president, he must prove to blacks that he is black enough, and must prove to whites that he is not too black, it is doubtful that he can do both. The fact that a presidential candidate has not spoken out with total outrage against Rev. Wright is disgraceful. Rev. Wright is obviously an anti-American racist. We cannot have a President who associates with such trash.
I think it makes scense. Im not sure if Don Imus was racist but what he said about those girls was not right. What Rev Wright said about aids being introduced in to the black community was also not right. what i see in your viewers comments for example "Barack is a typical black man in blaming whites for his problems" or "Barack should inbrace his White side." sounds more like anger than a rational thoughtful comment. We are all human and no one is perfect we as americans need to remember that.
#88 Phillip - Take a pill - I think I hear your mommy calling you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I think people need to see rev.wrights full sermon before they make their descision
When I was a young boy, my father told me "never take the Lord's name in vain' or GD this or GD that. For a preacher or minister or priest or rabbi to use such language is disgusting and insulting to God. I am a Baptist and I know you'll never hear that type of talk in our church. Anyone who would listen to or cheer anything like that or even be associated with Wright's diatribe can't possibly be patriotic enough to be my commander-in-chief.
I think it's verrry convenient for Obama to say if Rev. Wright was not retiring that he would quit the church. I'd like to see what he would've done if the Rev. was not retiring!
Completely hypocritical. If Obama gains the democratic nomination, John McCain will get every vote in my household (4). Obama is a liar, Clinton is a liar. The difference is, Clinton lies about herself while Obama lies to maintain a relationship with his mentor and pastor. What's worse, nearly the entire African community stands behind Rev. Wright's statements as well. I hope everone realizes that I left out the word American regarding the African community. Those that defend Rev. Wright's comments do not deserve to be labeled American--and if they hate America as much as they act like LEAVE. YOU'RE FREE TO GO.
I remember in disbelief as the OJ verdict was read and realized at that point as a young man in my early 30"s living in LA that there are several very diiferent America's. The same Americans that continue to accept and promote the various laughable excuses for Obama's 20 year oversight of the hateful anti semetic rants of his pastor shows us that OJ is still very much innocent in their eyes and nothing has changed.
Obama is the greatest fraud, a racist, double talker. What should we believe?
Obama had 20 years to quit Trinity United if the Wright "sound bites" offended him. Now that he is running for President, he "would have quit," if Wright had not retired!?! Puhlease. If Wright is a typical pastor of a black church, it goes a long way to show what and/or who is at the heart of the racial divide in this country. Also, I would be curious to know what Obama's definition of a "typical white person" is.
Greta, I have profound respect for you...be compassionate. Whoever has not made a mistake, throw the first stone. Move on and explore the truth. Why have we only heard the "soundbites?" Surely you and your staff have access to more than these? LL in Ohio
HE COMES ACROSS AS SO PHONEY. HE SAYS HE COULD HEAL THE DIVIDE BETWEEN THE RACES AND YET HE AND HIS FAMILY LISTENED TO THIS OUTRAGES HATE OF THE WHITE RACE FOR 20 YES 20 YEARS. SHAME ON YOU BARACK.
I totally agree with Mark! By: Mark | Mar 28, 22:14
Black people keep teaching their children this hate!! they are their own enemies. what made me really upset beside the comments by the Reverend was all the people in the conragation clapping and yelling to his comments. Lets face it. THey are the racists. not the white people. I know they want their children to remember their roots, but enough is enough. they keep carring on this madness!! i wish they would just stop. Obama knows exactly what was preached in that church! HATE AGAINST WHITE PEOPLE!!!
Greta, I made sure to watch the show...He said,
1..Rev is retired
2..If he had not retird and he had not understood the outcry from the country, He would have CONSIDERED leaving....
Juan, you seem to be jelous of Barak, as most Black men like you do, you cannot even be fair...Did you hear th speech Greta and Juan. Call me me at 757-855-0286, Jennifer...I am a Mcain voter, but I still have my soul to account for in fron of God, not Fox news and nt Obama etc
How is it possible that a man can take the title of his book from someone he so admired and then say that he does not value him as a mentor? I have lost all confidence in a man who should have used the title "The Audacity of Audacity" that would better reflect his integrity. He has lost my vote as a result of this outrageous cover-up of his true beliefs.
Anyone else notice that Obama seems to spend more and more time beating around the bush before he gets to actually answering pointed questions? I think it's getting harder for him to keep track of his own "mistatements" and he's worried that he's going to dig a deeper hole than he's already in. Paraphrasing an old truism - telling the truth is easier, keeping track of lies is tough.
The few NON-liberal press members still out there are poised and ready for the first obvious contradictions in his responses. They haven't all yet jumped on the inconsistency of his originally saying he wasn't present to hear any of the language heard in the sound bites and now saying that he didn't hear SOME of the Reverend Wrong's statements. Obama appears to be trying to create some wiggle room... I think it's too late.
Obama scared me from the start with his muslim background. He has a great chrisma about him and his speech delivery and can be very convincing. I hope and pray that people wake up before its to late. If elected, Rev. Wright will probably be his White House council. Wake up America!!!!!!
I feel that white folks need to stay out of the business of the black church. You don't understand and you never will. The fact that you're people believe that the black church is racist, proves that you don't understand. Get a life people -- you too Greta. You love to bash Blacks, that's obvious. Stop blocking the blessings that Obama will bring to the White House.
IS OBAMA HARD OF HEARING OR DOES HE THINK WE ALL STUPID. HE WOULD HAVE LEFT THE CHURCH AFTER THE FACT, WHEN THE PRESS REPORTED IT.. HE IS RACIST AND CAUGHT ..
I wish a reporter would ask Obama if he feels that Israel should be wiped off the map as Hamas does? Why has no attention been placed on the anti-Jewish
remarks of Rev. Wright?
Obama and Wright are cut from the same racist cloth. Wright is just a loud mouthed hateful bigot and Obama seems to be squirming in his uncle's fold.
I think its a bit frightening that this black racism is not seen for the danger it is ...The "Reverend" is brainwashing his congregants into holding onto and growing hate that was so real a long time ago. What if a white candidate had a Klansman as his mentor....even if he did a lot of other really neat things..?
Obama is as disgusting as Rev. Wright. Everytime he explains his position he sinks even deeper.... He shows weakness and poor judgement. 20 yrs. is a long time and the new pastor is saying/preaching the same thing! and he is still member of that church! Where is Michelle? Is the Obama camp telling her to hide?
It is double standard! I wonder if children are present at the church during cermons with negative passion language? How does that effect them?
i think obama is a bigest liar try 2 run united state of america....s.........................................................................................................................................................................................big.....................................................and tell lehy sut up obama wants chang u know what he shoud do change old lahy........obama going 2 change him 1st.........
The MSM is so in the tank for this phony. I find it incomprehensible that so many are so willing to give this guy a pass. Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain!
GOD, Greta is so ugly...
Thus is a hatchet job that the conservatives did on Rev. Wright and Sen. Obama. Someone sat in a sound room and cut abd clipped Rev. Wright's sermons in an effort to destroy this African American's presidential bid. Why doesn't someone play the unedited sermons. CNN played some of the sermons and I came away with a different view that what the clips done by the conservatives depict. If Republican view is the proper course for the country, why do we need all of these conservatives for 3 hours a day five days a week spreading this crap. They are misleading the country and there should be a penalty for this.
He lies! If you listen carefully you will notice how he hesitates before much of what he says.....trying ever so hard to say what he thinks you want to hear. But, and it's a big but, he never completely disconnects from the racial, anti-American rhetoric. I'm thoroughly convinced he is also racist and anti-American. I'm literally praying that he will not be electied President!
He's lying nd trying to get around it. At least now I understand where Michele Obama's diatribe against America comes from. Apparently she paid attention tothe Rev in the 20 years she went there. Obama needs to put a muzzle on her, or she'll ruin his chances for the nomination.
Greta, One Question to ponder"Where is the love of GOD in Rev. Wright and/or any of these preachers?" Racism is not what shocks me it is the lack of love these people have.
Obama's hypocrisy is becoming more and more evident all the time--and worse, he's starting to look like nothingmore than a manipulative liar. He belonged to the church for 20yrs., initially described Wright as "my close friend and mentor", and now claims he never heard and wasn't aware of all the racist and anti-american stuff he said on many occasions. Give me a break!
As for the "wonderful" speech Obama gave on racism, it was full of lofty rhetoric as usual but unfortunately didn't address the issue about which people are concerned. More and more he's looking like an empty but articulate phony
What is truly UNBELIEVABLE is that Hussein Obama is trying to fool us and THAT he has a whole group of incredibly stupid democrats joining him in this deception I feel insulted to the core and afraid for the future. After all this Hussein Obama also has a legion of young people, voting for the first time, who have no idea what they are doing, other than treat the coming election as a game. Hussein Obama is a racist and a very dangerous man. Please God, spare America and its people of such scurge!!
What an embarrassment is Obama. His defense is anemic and pathetic. In fact he cannot defend his position. He is like the kid caught with his hand in a vile cookie jar. Anything he says now is simply self-serving in a desperate attempt to save his candidacy - which can't be saved. He is an unapologetic hypocrite and liar. Forget all the issues his pastor raises. My question is why would we want a president that is so oblivious to all this stuff going on around him? We wouldn’t vote for a white candidate who seemed so unaware of his associates’ points of view, why would we give a pass to a black candidate who will do our country so much harm. He will divide our country and potentially send us back decades in race relations
#114 American WHAT?????????????????????????????? DUH???????????????????
HOW LONG WOULD MCCAIN OR CLINTON LAST IF THEIR PREACHERS SAID SOMETHING RACIST AGAINST BLACKS??!!! THEY WOULD BE GONE FOR GOOD ... WHY DON'T WE APPLY THE SAME POLICY TOWARDS BLACKS? IS IT OKAY FOR BLACKS TO BE RACISTS BUY NOT WHITES? BULLSHIT!!!
ALSO - WHY ARE ALL THESE WHITE NEWSCASTERS TIP TOEING AROUND THIS ISSUE WHILE ALL THE BLACKS SURE AS HECK CAME OUT FULL FORCE WHEN DON IMUS MADE THAT ONE COMMENT???? THE WHITE NEWSCASTERS AND PATETHIC...GET SOME BACKBONE AND CALL IT LIKE IT IS.
WHY ON EARTH CAN THE BLACK SPEAKERS LIKE SHARPTON AND JACKSON GET AWAY WITH SCREAMING ABOUT RACIST COMMENTS FROM DON IMUS BUT NO WHITE PERSON IS SCREAMING ABOUT WHAT WRIGHT SAID ABOUT WHITES AND AMERICANS?? WHAT JUSTICE IS THAT?????
Greta, As a black man that had a black Grandfather that was a preacher, I have to ask... Why do these people talk about "The Black Church"?? Jesus did not come and die on the cross for us to have a black, white, green,red or brown church. He said to just "Love your neighbor as yourself". Obama is the "typical" one. He has a secret association with a dangerous doctrine and it is wrong to critisize any white person for saying something that you consider to be racist while you hold dear someone that rarely says anything nice about white people. If you shook pastor Wright's family tree, white people would probably fall for a half an hour! I would love to debate these so-called preachers that have decided to love their neighbor...as long as they look and act like them. PLEASE don't ease up on them. The LAST thing we need is for race relations to be pushed back 40 years. Martin Luther King did say..."Injustice ANYWHERE is a threat to justice EVERYWHERE". Imus was not treated right and Wright is treated as if he's done no wrong. Thank you Greta. Love your show!! Kirk (Texas )
Just watched the whole interview online. Didn't you notice how unsure Obama was in his responses concerning the Rev. Wright versus how smoothly he spoke about political issues? His stumbling around tells me that he is definitely lying and can't get his stories staight.
Senator Obama's declaration that Reverend Wright's racist oratory doesn't count is totally disingenuous. I fear that the man has revealed a fundamental character flaw - the inability to discern Wright from Wrong.
Greta, My husband{whom is with his Father in heaven,now} was a person that had a sixth sense that just didnt stop. And he would always keep up with poltics especially if it was to vote for president. And the way he voted for a President was on the man who could be trusted. Before he passed away he said the only way you could vote for one now is to pick the one whom Lies the best. Well, obama can lie the best. but he sure wont get my vote. This is one time I will stand on my own two feet. I cant stand a liar. And a LIAR obama is
obama is always getting away with what he says. listen carefully to his words. i'm not kidding. he talks like he still in church. he too is angry at america & also tells whites it's all our fault. also, why isn't anyone talking about moveon.org backing obama? what happened to kennedy? is he hiding like he always does when something happens that's negative? he and kerry should be backing hillary because she won massachusetts. the liberals run and hide but then they come out to threaten rush limbaugh over "campaign chaos". the liberals forgot to tell everyone that they came out to vote for mc cain so romney wouldn't win.
Obama can not possibly think we are all so dull as to think he suddenly (After 20 Years) think he has changed his mind or repented somehow.
Many of us wish we had our donations back in our pockets.
Who knew these black churches preached such venom? At least that is what we are now hearing from Obama and Wrights counterparts.
Daily, they appear on the air claiming their view of America is just huncky- dory.
Well no.
It is fine if Obama had a mentor in a radical Wright, Farrakhan and so forth.
That does not mean he can run for president of the country he has cursed for twenty years.
Who are these people who say Obama's association with radicals is not a big thing?
It is a big thing.
Spare us from those who would run such a man for president before we know what this man is really about.
We are lifetime democrats and refuse to believe the party can posssibly think of running Obama for president, of all things.
Yes, hypocritical, of course. BUT, he will never be called out for this by the biased news media, so thank you, Greta, for bringing this to light. I watched him on the View today and the sound bite getting the most attention is the fact that he is sexy. When did that become part of the criteria for president? Soon I am going to have to start wearing a brace under my chin....the more I watch this man, the lower (drop-jawed) my chin goes! The most awesome and unbelievable damage we will ever do our country is elect Obama this fall.
To # 24
Obama has a half brother and sister also, his mother is dead.
This is part of a post I read on Gretas blogs, and it was an eye opener for me and others.

I have done a tremendous amount of research on this man, and one of the most amazing things I found was his remarks in his books, "Dreams Of My Father", and "The Audacity of Hope" which I checked out from the library. His admiration for Islam and the disdain for the white race was disturbing. It is all there and it can't be taken out of context. Yet, nobody has/will call him on it. This stranger came out of nowhere with his flowery speeches that his handlers have given him, promising America great things- without specifying how -and droves hang on every word, believe every word and follow without question. If anyone dares to question, they are shouted down with 'Racist'! Bigot'! This is very very frightening. It's time to get the message out to a naive public who are jumping on the "black JFK", "camelot","change", "take back America" bandwagon, without questioning who this man is, questioning his past, his present associates and backers and his agenda. The remarks from his books are very, very disturbing. Again, the remarks are there- and they are NOT taken out of context. Example: Quote from Barack Obama's book, Dreams Of My Father: "The person who made me proudest of all, though, was [half brother] Roy .. He converted to Islam." From 'Dreams of my Father', "In Indonesia, I had spent two years at a Muslim school" "I studied the Koran.." From 'Audacity of Hope: "Lolo (Obama's step father) followed a brand of Islam ...."I looked to Lolo for guidance". From 'The Audacity Of Hope, "I will stand with the Muslims should the political winds shift in an ugly direction." From The Audacity Of Hope, "We are no longer just a Christian nation," "We are also a Jewish nation, a Muslim nation, a Buddhist nation, a Hindu nation, and a nation of nonbelievers." From Dreams of My Father, " I FOUND A SOLACE IN NURSING A PERVASIVE SENSE OF GRIEVANCE AND ANIMOSITY AGAINST MY MOTHER'S RACE". From 'Dreams of my Father', "The emotion between the races could never be pure..... the other race would always remain just that: menacing, alien, and apart." From 'Dreams of My Father', "I ceased to advertise my mother's race at the age of 12 or 13, when I began to suspect that by doing so I was ingratiating myself to whites" From Dreams Of My Father, "never emulate white men and brown men whose fates didn't speak to my own. It was into my father's image, the black man, son of Africa, that I'd packed all the attributes I sought in myself..". From Dreams Of My Father: "That hate hadn't gone away," he wrote, blaming "white people — some cruel, some ignorant, sometimes a single face, sometimes just a faceless image of a system claiming power over our lives." From Dreams Of My Father; "There were enough of us on campus to constitute a tribe, and when it came to hanging out many of us chose to function like a tribe, staying close together, traveling in packs," he wrote. "It remained necessary to prove which side you were on,to show your loyalty to the black masses, to strike out and name names" From Dreams Of My Father, "I had grown accustomed, everywhere, to suspicions between the races." . . . Just how clear does Obama have to make his disdain for the white race and his admiration for Islam?? Imagine if Hillary or Romney had said: . . " I FOUND A SOLACE IN NURSING A PERVASIVE SENSE OF GRIEVANCE AND ANIMOSITY AGAINST THE BLACK RACE". "The emotion between the races could never be pure..... the BLACK race would always remain just that: menacing, alien, and apart." "never emulate BLACK men whose fates didn't speak to my own. It was into my father's image, the WHITE MAN,- SON OF AMERICA,-that I'd packed all the attributes I sought in myself..". IF A WHITE CANDIDATE HAD THOSE REMARKS OUT IN PRINT, THEY WOULD BE CRUCIFIED. . . . .
wake up #41 grisi
This man called barack hussein obama is phony from the very beginning. I never trusted him and now I am not the only one. Wake up obama supporters! you are being duped.. enough of this black "woe is me." It is old and nobody listens to it anymore.
Obama's chance of the white house is doomed. His sins shall find him out. He cannot have it both ways. He can't attend services for 20 years and claim Wright as his mentor and "uncle" if he doesn't have an awful lot in common with the man. Obama is not telling the truth. If he told the truth his career would be over. He's just hoping that most democrats are stupid enough to believe his SPIN!
Are dems this stupid?
my daddy hates the white folk...rev wright is a good man...daddy says grandma is a typical white old woman....why is it the white house and not the black house...why is Barbie white? my daddy tells you things to get elected...but he has a master plan...called REPARATIONS....daddy will take care of you white folk...for good...bye bye
Greta:
I try to overlook what his reverand said. But the more Obama tries to explain, the worse he looks, to me. IF this had been reversed and a white minister of another candidate said the same about another race, that candidate would probably already be out of the race, period!
OBAMA IS WHAT MY GRANDPARENTS USED TO CALL AN "UPPITY N-GGER! THEY(UPPITY) WOULD LIE AND THINK YOU DIDN'T KNOW ANY BETTER. HOW TRUE OF OBAMA
It's amazing how so many people can make judgements on Obama! How many times have our friends made statements we didn't agree with. My parents taught me to be loyal to the church, but read the Bible for myself and establish a relationsip with God for myself. Because in the end, I only have to answer to God for my actions.-Teresa
Well this just follows those 100 votes "present" while serving in Illinois & U.S. Senate. If you don't stand for something, you stand for nothing! Obama's fast to criticize others and whine about how unfair people are but try not to show us anything about himself. A smooth tongue without real "works" is not enough for me. If Obama is nominee, I will vote for McCain! The Dems are fooling themselves if they think there will be a healing if he is the nominee. Dr. Dean & others should be calling for Obama to drop out! To disregard Michigan & Florida votes is a crime and a slap in the faces of voters in those states! I hope Hillary hangs in there & goes all the way to the convention! Hillary, Gore & Edwards in some combination would be unbeatable.
Why hasn't anyone questioned why Oprah Winfrey left this church and yet Obama has not. I think he is being dishonest. Also, with a trillion dollar debt, how does he propose to pay for the things he promises? Since Congress passes laws, how is Obama going to get many of his proposals through Congress? So many people support him, without asking him important questions, looking at his experience or his ability to deliver what he promises.
To # 24
Obama has a half brother and sister also, his mother is dead.
This is part of a post I read on Gretas blogs, and it was an eye opener for me and others.

I have done a tremendous amount of research on this man, and one of the most amazing things I found was his remarks in his books, "Dreams Of My Father", and "The Audacity of Hope" which I checked out from the library. His admiration for Islam and the disdain for the white race was disturbing. It is all there and it can't be taken out of context. Yet, nobody has/will call him on it. This stranger came out of nowhere with his flowery speeches that his handlers have given him, promising America great things- without specifying how -and droves hang on every word, believe every word and follow without question. If anyone dares to question, they are shouted down with 'Racist'! Bigot'! This is very very frightening. It's time to get the message out to a naive public who are jumping on the "black JFK", "camelot","change", "take back America" bandwagon, without questioning who this man is, questioning his past, his present associates and backers and his agenda. The remarks from his books are very, very disturbing. Again, the remarks are there- and they are NOT taken out of context. Example: Quote from Barack Obama's book, Dreams Of My Father: "The person who made me proudest of all, though, was [half brother] Roy .. He converted to Islam." From 'Dreams of my Father', "In Indonesia, I had spent two years at a Muslim school" "I studied the Koran.." From 'Audacity of Hope: "Lolo (Obama's step father) followed a brand of Islam ...."I looked to Lolo for guidance". From 'The Audacity Of Hope, "I will stand with the Muslims should the political winds shift in an ugly direction." From The Audacity Of Hope, "We are no longer just a Christian nation," "We are also a Jewish nation, a Muslim nation, a Buddhist nation, a Hindu nation, and a nation of nonbelievers." From Dreams of My Father, " I FOUND A SOLACE IN NURSING A PERVASIVE SENSE OF GRIEVANCE AND ANIMOSITY AGAINST MY MOTHER'S RACE". From 'Dreams of my Father', "The emotion between the races could never be pure..... the other race would always remain just that: menacing, alien, and apart." From 'Dreams of My Father', "I ceased to advertise my mother's race at the age of 12 or 13, when I began to suspect that by doing so I was ingratiating myself to whites" From Dreams Of My Father, "never emulate white men and brown men whose fates didn't speak to my own. It was into my father's image, the black man, son of Africa, that I'd packed all the attributes I sought in myself..". From Dreams Of My Father: "That hate hadn't gone away," he wrote, blaming "white people — some cruel, some ignorant, sometimes a single face, sometimes just a faceless image of a system claiming power over our lives." From Dreams Of My Father; "There were enough of us on campus to constitute a tribe, and when it came to hanging out many of us chose to function like a tribe, staying close together, traveling in packs," he wrote. "It remained necessary to prove which side you were on,to show your loyalty to the black masses, to strike out and name names" From Dreams Of My Father, "I had grown accustomed, everywhere, to suspicions between the races." . . . Just how clear does Obama have to make his disdain for the white race and his admiration for Islam?? Imagine if Hillary or Romney had said: . . " I FOUND A SOLACE IN NURSING A PERVASIVE SENSE OF GRIEVANCE AND ANIMOSITY AGAINST THE BLACK RACE". "The emotion between the races could never be pure..... the BLACK race would always remain just that: menacing, alien, and apart." "never emulate BLACK men whose fates didn't speak to my own. It was into my father's image, the WHITE MAN,- SON OF AMERICA,-that I'd packed all the attributes I sought in myself..". IF A WHITE CANDIDATE HAD THOSE REMARKS OUT IN PRINT, THEY WOULD BE CRUCIFIED. . . . .
how is we have to learn the wat the blacks study the HolyBible?i always thought there is only one way to study it ,not introduce hate ,racism ,and call Israel terroist ,thats what _Obamas church sounded like they were studying
Is this a sample of what the USA has to put up with if Obama is elected to the Presidency? He is half white but all we ever hear about is the black side. When is he going to start sticking up for the mother who was white and raised him after his black father left. It's all about votes and where he thinks he can get them. What happened to the fast talker?? I hear him stumbling over words and stammering to think of the right thing to say -- then not really finding the "right" thing to say.
An intense background check has to be made of Obama. We cannot allow a man to become President without a thorough knowledge of his background
Barack Hussein Obama is a member of Trinity United Church because that church, and more specifically, Rev. Wright, was instrumental in his election to the Illinois state senate. Rev. Wright draws his political power from Jesse Jackson and Mayor Daily who campaigned for Barack. Simply put, Barack owes any political success in Illinois to Rev. Wright and the church. That is why he will not denounce the Reverend and is still a member of Trinity. If someone cannot tell the truth when it hurts they have bad character. BO's character stinks.
Obama didn't give straight forward answers to anything today on The View...
He scurried around the Wright question and then in my opinion he put his foot in his mouth later when asked about taxes.
First he said, he didn't plan on taking away tax breaks/credit because he didn't intend on making American's dish out more money. He stated he was a tax payer just like everyone else and he didn't want to have to pay higher taxes. Then he turned right around and said he wanted to make the wealthy/rich pay higher taxes and cut the middle and lower classes a break. Obama is wealthy, so according to his statement of taxing the wealthy more heavily, he would have to pay higher taxes ... YET he had just said he didn't want to pay higher taxes.
I am also tired of hearing people saying Obama said he would have quit going to the Church had he heard Wright say those things. Obama said he PROBABLY would not have stayed. Let's emphasize probably.
He also said he didn't hear SOME of the things Wright said and he also did NOT say he absolutely, without a doubt, would have disowned Wright nor did he say anything about thinking Wright should have been banned/kicked out of the Church.
We had better wake up and smell the coffee, once he in we have had it!
Obama will not win the general election because of this Pastor Problem. If the Super Delegates go with him it is just a sign that they hate Hillary. John McCain will beat him in the fall.
I noticed when Obama Is questioned about something that he tries to cover up he studders. He gets extremley nervous. I am a retired cop and have interviewed thousands of people. When people lie they get nervous.
I would think Obama would be dizzy by now from all the spinning he's been doing lately. There's no way he could not have known Rev. Wright's viewpoints if as he says the Rev. Wright was his spiritual advisor for twenty years. I sure know how my pastor sees things. You don't have to "be in the pew" every Sunday to know the doctrine of your church! All this about Rev. Wright's words being taken out of context is more spin, pure and simple. No matter how you turn it around he SAID those hateful and racist things, apparently on more than one occasion. I don't hold with any preacher of any church , no matter the race spewing forth hate and racist messages. We need to remember that racism is NOT just whites vs blacks. The reverse is true also. Racism, sadly is alive in all races and it doesn't look as if it's going to die anytime soon.
Obama is now in the media's cross-hair and he is tap-dancing on every issue. It's time that the American people see him for what he really is - A Total Fraud!
What a deceiver. I'm scared because he's friends with all our enemies overseas. He is not for America.
Some people say that Obama fits the discription of the Anti-Christ that is depicted in the Bible. I don't know about that, but
He most certainly is a liar.
I never knew black churches would preach the way Rev. Wright preaches.
What is truly UNBELIEVABLE is that Hussein Obama is trying to fool us and THAT he has a whole group of incredibly stupid democrats joining him in this deception I feel insulted to the core and afraid for the future. After all this Hussein Obama also has a legion of young people, voting for the first time, who have no idea what they are doing, other than treat the coming election as a game. Hussein Obama is a racist and a very dangerous man. Please God, spare America and its people of such scurge!!
I was suspicious of Obama when his wife Michelle said a few months ago that for "the first time in my adult life, I'm really proud of my country." After hearing that remark, my radar went up. I really feel as though Barack and Michelle have anti-American feelings in them. They do not fully appreciate all of the opportunities they have had in life, such as going to some of the best schools in the country (Columbia, Princeton, Harvard). I never had the opportunity to go to an Ivy League school and I am offended by their comments of how unfair America is to African Americans. I am white and grew up in a blue collar family. I would never have been able to afford to go to a prestigious school such as Columbia. I had to attend CUNY at night while I worked a full time job during the day. I did not have affirmative action paying for me to go to school, I had to do it on my own. I'm sure many people feel the same way but it is politically incorrect to say so. I will not be voting for Obama, even though I am not a Clinton supporter I hope Hillary wins the nomination.
Where's his good friend, Ms. Oprah? She's supporting him, right?
It is about time that voters see Obama for what he is: a hypocrite.
Kierkegaard expressed it very well when he said:
"In fact you are nothing, you are merely a relation to others, and what you are, you are by virtue of this relation"
Rev. Wright is a fine example of what is REALLY keeping racism alive and well. Imagine a white minister spewing hate talk against black people ... guess that would make him the "typical white person". pffttttt How come it is that white people are the only ones considered racist? And G-damning America is not racist ... it is pure and evil hatred. Hey, Rev. Wright ... America ... love it or leave it!!
I want to know WHY Fox bothers having someone like Al Sharpton or Jesse Jackson on to get their opinion of Obama and Wright? Like we don't know what these two would say?
These two love to keep the racial divide going. They have gotten rich running around screaming "it's racial". BTW did they ever appologize about the Duke case when they found out she lied?
Nope they just moved on to the next "racial" issue. Keep these two off Fox. What credentials so these men have? Doctorates from Howard University? ROFL!!!
Rev. Wright is talking about the obstacles that blacks have to go through in this country. He is simply reflecting the past events and today's issues. He is not being a racist. I think he was talking about the problems we still face; for instance, systematic racism. Black men are three times more likely to be jailed and serve more time than their white counterparts.
I believe that Obama is a Muslim and the church is a front for anti- American activities to destroy America.
As a lawyer, I am surprised that you would ask such a loaded question. As I heard it, you asked essentially; "what do you think of the contradictory statements of Senator Obama.."? Your question gives away your own opinion on the the subject. I am a lawyer, and have been practicing for over 28 years. I do not think there is anything contradictory in Senator Obama's statement. I suggest you re-examine your own predilictions as you "report the news".
Mr. Obama will soon regret all of his recent interviews. The more he speaks on this subject the deeper he digs. People will research now, will uncover facts and I feel it will cost him and rightfully so. I am very sad that he is more ready to defend the rantings of his black racist minister than his white Grandmother who he says loves him and did everything for him. Some were worried he wasnt "Politician" enough. In this instance he is proving them wrong.
What a crock of Barack. There's no way he would have left the church. He still holds the Reverend in high esteem. His retiring was perfect timing.
ARE ALL YOUR EYES OPENED NOW? IF THE RACIST GETS THE NOMINATION, OR EVEN WORSE, ELECTED POTUS WE ARE ALL SCREWED!!!!!!!!!! PEOPLE OF PA, WE ARE COUNTING ON YOU.........
I cannot believe that people would fall for what Senator Obama said in The View, it was such a weak, pathetic argument trying to minimize the offensive comments of Rev. and the retirement argument excusing himself from having to confront the issue. Mr. Obama is very smooth and slick; he has contributed greatly to this church, in one income tax more than $77,000 . Why would you vote for someone to be the most powerful man in the world, leader of the free world and the most powerful and kind country there is in this world when this man lacks good judgement or else he is a liar.
NOBODY SHOULD BE VOTING FOR THIS LIAR!!!
What else can he say? He is a politican. Don't all politicans lie when they have to. From the beginning Obama came across as if he is better than all those politicans in Washington. This is why he is running for president and talks about CHANGE and HOPE. He sounds like he is just above it all and somehow a majority have fallen for it. Beware of a sheep in wolf's clothing.
Rev. Wright is a fine example of what is REALLY keeping racism alive and well. Imagine a white minister spewing hate talk against black people ... guess that would make him the "typical white person". pffttttt How come it is that white people are the only ones considered racist? And G-damning America is not racist ... it is pure and evil hatred. Hey, Rev. Wright ... America ... love it or leave it!!
ATTENTION Andrea #73,
Pay attention... Obama is not being compared to Imus. His preacher/mentor is being compared to Imus.
A building is only as strong as its foundation...apparently Wright was a big part of Obama's foundation.
Hello America, we who protect america are very aware of how dangerous obama and wright are, racism and hate from the church and obama running for president is a mixture to reduce,to do away with,to replace,our very way of life,the fact wright and obama are associated with farrakahn,is most concerning,such groups as the nation of islam want to bring america down,we are fighting a war because of such individuals as wright and obama,and farrakhan,we should all be very nervous,please do not vote for obama,what he says cannot be believed,he lacks sound judgement,and is not comming from a clear place,we protect america,join us, get on board,report anything that might harm us,this is our home,where families are raised,fight the fight for america,god bless, and do not vote for obamanation.
I would like to know, if you walked into John McCain's Church or Hillary's church and the Pastor was wearing a KKK hood. I do believe they would be called racist. As I believe Rev. Wright is a reverse racist!!!!!!!
Thank you Greta for continuing this situation, because it truly is a situation....
Oboma lies about everything, he does not deserve to be PRESIDENT of the United Stated. I feel much of Obama's problem is his wife who makes racist statements and actually hates anyone who is not black.
When I voted I checked (it makes sence to me) in error so I voterd a second time (it is hypocritical)
He is spinning again. Politics as usual. He tries too hard to make people beleive he is an innocent and worthy person to be our next president. He doesn't come across as 100% true blue and seems to have lost some of his charisma. Americans should really be examining all of our candidates, but they should really take a good look at this one. I don't feel comfortable at all about leaving the safety of our country in Obama' hands.
It sickens me that Obama could be the Democratic nominee. I have no trust in a man that has attended a church for 20 years with such radical views. I have to agree with #26 Theresa! Will this double-standard follow him if he makes it to the White House. . . .Greta, keep after Rev. Wright to "set the record straight!" I truly think he's afraid a white girl might put him in his place.
#181 YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING??? RIGHT???????????????
Ditto #23. Maybe the door will give Scott a really swift kick in the butt and knock some sense into him. Who gives a damn if he says he's leaving and if he really does leave? I certainly don't.
What'cha want to bet he isn't really leaving? He just can't accept the truth, but he will want to know what we intelligent people have to say.
I just wish all this about Obama and his minister had been revealed months ago.
Go Hillary! If Obama wins the Dem. nomination, I'll vote for McCain.
I feel as though Obama, has received preferential treatment and Hillary has been neglected to the point she had to tell a little white lie to get the attention back on her for a brief moment. The News Media has been so slanted toward Obama, that I have to wonder is it because of the fear of a back lash from the black community Fear of race riots due to the behind scenes of Brother Sharpton and Jackson!! I never knew that Caucasians were so hated in the black churches. This will hurt us all as a nation.
BO is just not truthful. And I would never vote for someone like that. He twist and turns all the things that Rev Wright says to make him look like a good man. He knows what his Rev said and is just trying to shove it under the rug.
I agree with Nance.... Both Obama and the Clintons will do and/or say anything to get elected and benefit themselves personally. I wish I knew more about Obama's past too. I really want to vote for and endorse someone with morals. Our country needs someone to lead it that has MORALS!!!
Most people who replied to this poll are McCain supporters so it's biased and meaningless!
lllllllllllllll
Hearing the ministers speak shocked the heck out of me. IF they are preaching this MLK must be rolling over in his grave. This is not what MLK was looking for.
It would be nice to hear the same story from Obama twice in a row.
Last year when he (Obama the "Anti Christ) said HIS PEOPLE needed this change, that is when I know Obama was a fraud, and a racist!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I believe that Obama is a Muslim and the church is a front for anti- American activities to destroy America.
Sen. Obama's remarks regarding Wright and Imus make no sense.
can you even imagine if david duke was allowed to preach like rev. wright . in any church. the general public would be so angry yet these black people in rev wrights chruch sit there and listen to him talk about the rich white people. where do you think these people get jobs. if you don't like america there are planes leaving every hour to other countries. maybe they should try speaking so igorantly in russia or china.
And, he says that the Bush Administration has led us down the path of destruction. Is this what his administration is going to be about? Keep up the great work FOX!!!! at least some one is telling the truth.
Greta,
In one of the Rev. Wright clips, he claims that the US gave blacks syphilis in the infamous Tuskegee experiment. On your show tonight, another minister repeated that claim, and used it to justify concern over whether or not the US invented AIDS, which Rev. Wright claimed the US did as an agent of genocide. Please have your staff report on this. I am familiar with the Tuskegee syphilis study, and the US did not give syphilis to the subjects. The experiment was indeed abhorent, as individuals with syphilis were withheld treatment in order to study the course of the disease. But they were not injected with it. Rev. Wright is an intelligent and educated man. He should look into the facts behind these issues and spread knowledge, not distortions and fear. While the Tuskegee experiment was a terrible abuse perpetrated by an agency of the government, making it more than it was in order to then claim something as absurd as the US being responsible for AIDS is either a deliberate attempt to create hatred against the US among his parishioners, or outright paranoia. The outcry over the Tuskegee experiment led the US to create strict government oversight of human subjects research to insure that all such research since then is done ethically.

Senator Obama should be looked at for the person he really is, and that is someone that used the Pastor Wright connection to get black credentials when he had none. He then tried to conceal the association because to reveal that he sat there for 20 years listening, and agreeing, for lack of repudiating Rev. Wright, would be political suicide. This adds up to a political opportunist and a racist bigot trying to sell Americans a bill of goods. His wife joins him in his racist beliefs and they are both guilty of subjecting there daughters to the hate speech of the Rev. Wrights tirades.
Do you want someone with this utter disregard for truth, integrity and judgement leading our Country. Not I.
As a white man I am tired of white males having the racist guilt trip from 40 years ago hung on them today. Everyone should stop making excuses and stop casting blame. Even with its faults, America is still the greatest country in the world. WE ALL, black and white should get off our humps and do something in our generation to make it better. I look around for something our generation should be remembered for and all I can come up with is Debt, Obesity, Playstation, Internet Porn, and Laziness. Get off your ass America.
Ya know I am sick of these radical left leaning Black Demagods who think they speak for the majority of the black people, they dont, and we as a nation should stop apologising for Blacks being Slaves, people of all races have been slaves all over the world, its just that the Blacks were the latest in modern times, what about the jews, the Christians etc etc, every time one nation conquored another those people becasme slaves.
and Obam is half White, and a hypocrit
I am one Democrat that has not been " Obamafied" and I no longer watch "Obamavision" [MSNBC] and I will not be at the big 'coming together' party in November..if Obama is the democratic nominee..I will be voting for John McCain..at least I know he wasnt saying Amen to Rev Wrights services.
GRETA..I FIND THE TIMING OF REV WRIGHT'S RETIREMENT IRONIC..ALSO IF MEMORY SERVES ME RIGHT..I DON'T REMEMBER THE REV ADMITTING HE MADE MISTAKES AND WAS SORRY..AND WHERE THE HECK IS HE..SEEMS LIKE HE HAS CONVENIENTLY DISAPPEARED LIKE OBAMA'S WIFE..WHY WASN'T SHE MADE AVAILABLE LIKE PRESIDENT CLINTON WAS FOR YOUR INTERVIEW..IS HIS PEOPLE AFFRAID SHE IS GONNA MAKE ANOTHER BLUNDER LIKE FOR THE "FIRST" TIME SHE IS "PROUD" TO BE AN AMERICAN..AND IS HE GONNA KEEP HER SHELTERED LIKE SHE HAS BEEN LATELY "IF" HE GETS IN "OUR" WHITE HOUSE..AND OMG ARE WE GONNA HAVE TO CHANGE THE NAME OF THAT TOO..WOW SCARY THOUGHT..LET THIS REVEREND COME FORTH AND EXPLAIN HIMSELF AND NOT HIDE BEHIND OBAMA'S SHADOW..THE MAN HAD A MOUTH FULL OF "G-D'S AMERICA BEFORE AND NEVER BATTED AN EYE..NOW IT'S HIS TIME TO "COME HOME" TO "ROOST"..HE'S GOT A LOT OF SPLAININ TO DO..AND MORE EVEN FROM OBAMA..HE'S NOT SATISFIED ME......"VERY"PROUD TO BE AN AMERICAN AND "GOD BLESS" "HER"
Obama is a great dancer, isn't he?
Greta - all of this issue with Obama's comments wreak with a double standard which has been present in this country for years. Obama can get a pass on his actions and explainations, but let a conservative say something and see what happens. Obama is well on his way digging his own grave which he absolutely deserves. The big losers are those who decided to support someone while oblivious to their character and then of course the Democratic Party as a whole will also suffer.
HERE'S SOMETHING OBAMA NEEDS TO BE ASKED: If 20 years ago Jeremiah Wright introduced you to CHRISTIANITY, then WHAT THE HELL were you before that, MUSLIM maybe?????????
AND who wants a First Lady that looks more like a MAN then OBAMA does?
Anyone have thoughts on this???
re: 155 Matt, I have a daughter who is graduating college this may and she is asking the same question. She even asked me if I knew what is wrong with this picture. My daughter is in her middle 20s, and she does not like Obama. She told me to hang on and Obama would hang himself, she was Wright! Get my drift? My daughter, being in college saw Obama repeating word for word in his speeches and nothing came of it. In college if you did that you could get kicked out of school. Obma can do anything he wants and he knows it.
Don Imus was wrong to say what he said. And I can turn him off! The Reverend Wright had a captive audience subjected to a string of criticisms of whites in one sermon. He also acts with amazing intensity and clearly incites his audience to a level of agitation that is difficult to understand in a church setting. It seems more like a rally. I want to vote for a candidate, no matter what race, who appeals to all Americans and the world without prejudice; however, I don't think Obama and his entourage are without prejudice. The candidate for the highest position in our country must possess an honest and fair character. A candidate aligned with radical personalities does make me feel comfortable.
Greta, it appears to me as i see Barrack making his statement that he is trying to think his way out of this mess, you can see by the look and expression on his face and in the careful selection of words he has used that he is ( lying ) trying to change the subject. This is really annoying how the other leaders defend the Rev. saying that this is what is preached in most black churches and that it has been for years, its only new to "us" (being the white people). And then they have the nerve to call "us" as being racists????
I researched Obama's church when he first got in the presidential race and I saw that one of the mission statements was that they pledge their allegence to the mother country of Africa. None of this recent news of Rev. Wright surprises me. I am not racist but we do not need a president who pledges his first allegence to a country other than America.
if my grandma didnt die, i would have fired her too for sayin those bad things
I cannot overlook Rev. Wright's comments. It seems like the main stream press and all the white liberals are able to still give Obama a pass. What Obama has done is horrendous. He keeps changing his story. I for one will never be able to believe him. He is not good for our country.
How is it that in this age of color blind integration and political correctness that we have "black American" churches? Is that not racist on the face of it?
Mr.Obama you sure know how to LIE TO PEOPLE. I will never VOTE FOR A PERSON that is against OUR GREAT COUNTRY. I will VOTE FOR Mr.McCAIN IF YOU RUN
By the way...People whose forefathers held African and American slaves have NO RIGHT to label anyone as racist....Think about it. A racist institution that still affects America's thinking and ealings with anyone non-white is absolute proof of this...
#198 WHAT????????????????????????????????? Some of these comments I think came from the Fahrakon space ship.
OBAMA is a person of such high character, intelligence, and integrity that America has not seen since Ronald Reagon. I am a Republican; however, I will vote for Obama. PLEASE, PLEASE, STOP TALKING ABOUT THE REV. WRIGHT situation! In my opinion, this will be forgotten and won't make any difference in the majority of voters for the next President of the US.
Sincerely,

I have done a tremendous amount of research on this man, and one of the most amazing things I found was his remarks in his books, "Dreams Of My Father", and "The Audacity of Hope" which I checked out from the library.

It's time to get the message out to a naive public who are jumping on the "black JFK", "camelot","change", "take back America" bandwagon, without questioning who this man is, questioning his past, his present associates and backers and his agenda. The remarks from his books are very, very disturbing. Again, the remarks are there- and they are NOT taken out of context. Example: Quote from Barack Obama's book, Dreams Of My Father: "The person who made me proudest of all, though, was [half brother] Roy .. He converted to Islam." From 'Dreams of my Father', "In Indonesia, I had spent two years at a Muslim school" "I studied the Koran.." From 'Audacity of Hope: "Lolo (Obama's step father) followed a brand of Islam ...."I looked to Lolo for guidance". From 'The Audacity Of Hope, "I will stand with the Muslims should the political winds shift in an ugly direction." From The Audacity Of Hope, "We are no longer just a Christian nation," "We are also a Jewish nation, a Muslim nation, a Buddhist nation, a Hindu nation, and a nation of nonbelievers." From Dreams of My Father, " I FOUND A SOLACE IN NURSING A PERVASIVE SENSE OF GRIEVANCE AND ANIMOSITY AGAINST MY MOTHER'S RACE". From 'Dreams of my Father', "The emotion between the races could never be pure..... the other race would always remain just that: menacing, alien, and apart." From 'Dreams of My Father', "I ceased to advertise my mother's race at the age of 12 or 13, when I began to suspect that by doing so I was ingratiating myself to whites" From Dreams Of My Father, "never emulate white men and brown men whose fates didn't speak to my own. It was into my father's image, the black man, son of Africa, that I'd packed all the attributes I sought in myself..". From Dreams Of My Father: "That hate hadn't gone away," he wrote, blaming "white people — some cruel, some ignorant, sometimes a single face, sometimes just a faceless image of a system claiming power over our lives." From Dreams Of My Father; "There were enough of us on campus to constitute a tribe, and when it came to hanging out many of us chose to function like a tribe, staying close together, traveling in packs," he wrote. "It remained necessary to prove which side you were on,to show your loyalty to the black masses, to strike out and name names" From Dreams Of My Father, "I had grown accustomed, everywhere, to suspicions between the races." . . . Just how clear does Obama have to make his disdain for the white race and his admiration for Islam?? Imagine if Hillary or Romney had said: . . " I FOUND A SOLACE IN NURSING A PERVASIVE SENSE OF GRIEVANCE AND ANIMOSITY AGAINST THE BLACK RACE". "The emotion between the races could never be pure..... the BLACK race would always remain just that: menacing, alien, and apart." "never emulate BLACK men whose fates didn't speak to my own. It was into my father's image, the WHITE MAN,- SON OF AMERICA,-that I'd packed all the attributes I sought in myself..".
So, Scott, why are you watching Greta's show if you write that all of us who watch Greta's show are racists and Greta is a racist? It is ludicrous how so many people like to "gag" anyone who may have criticism of an African American. You can not put a muzzle on 88% of the population of the USA because you don't agree with their comments. If you like that type of "control", there are a lot of communist countries you where you can set up residence. It's time the people of the USA see beyond color is right. See beyond color means all people can offer opinions, criticisms about certain issues, statements, beliefs = and do so without considering if you are addressing a person of a different race or ethic origin or the same race and/or ethnic origin. Stop throwing "You're a racist" around because you don't agree with the person's opinion. It's old. It's lost any effectiveness it may have had, and it's ignorant.
It is unfortunate that 12% of Greta's viewers are so liberal and 1% are too underinformed to even have an opinion
I think Obama is hypicritical any way you look at him.
He said that because he knows that's what people want to hear.
The so called Reverand retired so naturally he can say what he said.]
If he didn't retire, do you honestly think Obama would leave that church?
I pity our country if he's our next president.
He's hiding a whole lot more that we don't know about yet.
Watch and see!
It will come out sooner or later and I hope it doesn't hurt us in the meantime.
Open your eyes and ears Obama supporters!
Thil man SCARES me, but not half as much as the people who buy into his retoric. He knew damn well what this man was about and he most definatly bought into it. If Whright hadn't retired and this wasn't exposed Obama would still be sitting in the pews every Sunday nodding his head like a bobble-head doll. God Bless America, and please keep us safe from this man!!!
Greta i cant understand nothing you say when you are talking it sound like you got a mouth full of rocks LAY OFF OBAMA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and i would never vote for Hilary or McCain
A true death nail to the electability of this man. I had expected greater character and metal from Obama. He will twist on this issue unless he can somehow find new moral high ground to set himself above the bullet ducking H.C.
I am aghast at the comments from the "preachers" supporting Jeremiah Wright. They cause one to think there needs to be a reevaluation of all interaction with those in the black community. The hatred of "whitey" is palpable in their defense of Wright. I guess we can "take that to the bank".
Juan Williams' is so rational in his evaluation of this "Wright/Obama revelation" that I thought most intelligent members of the black community would fall into his camp in their assessment. Apparently, Juan is the exception.
USAMA Bin Laden ops, OBAMA is a liar. Do you USAMA think we are stupid American? Only stupid idiots can vote for you. You don't even know how to speak. Aren't you ashamed that pittyfulness comes from all directions for you. The media is doing exactly that "Poor idiot Black man"
I feel that a man who is suppose to be about healing the racial scars of America and wants to be the leader of the most powerful country in the would should have strong morals and belive in what he is saying, It is clear Sen. Obama is now just tring to save face and telling some many little lies he can no longer keep them inline. He must admit to the American people that he has known about the Rev. racist attitude and hate for American Millitary long ago and explain why he never removed himself and his wife (Whom is now proud to be an American) as well as his two children from the church twenty years ago! I have herd Obama go from saying nothing about this situation to denying ever hearing the comments made by the Rev. now to saying he herd some but comdem those remarks and even more recently stating that if the Rev wouldnt have retired he would have left the church, This completely baffels my mind since its clearly obvious that he was ok with his mentor for twenty years but now that its impacting his campaign he would have left. At this point Sen. Obama you have lost this Americans vote and should not be reelected as a Senator much less the President of the United States of America.
Sincerely:

I applaude FOX News for giving questioning democrats an opportunity to explore the possibility that all that glitters is not necessarily gold. Senator Obama is not being truthful about the Rev. Wright situation with his ever-changing spin on what he heard and didn't hear. When reflecting on what Michele Obama said I can't help but think that she may have been reflecting Rev. Wright's views when she suggested that this was the first time in her life that she was proud of America. Could it be that she was sitting in the pew during one of those 30-sound bites?
Hang in there Hillary!
Imagine that Sen. McCain's pastor made incendiary comments about African Americans, for example, claiming that blacks had conspired to kill whites en masse with a fatal virus. Now imagine Sen. McCain refusing to categorically denounce such comments, and later appearing on The View to say that he had called his pastor and effectively apologized for all the media scrutiny the pastor had gone through. Kind of difficult to imagine, isn't it? By the way, Senators Clinton and Obama don't seem to understand the true meanings of "misspeak" and "taken out of context". The former means you said something wrong (usually ONCE) inadvertently. The latter means that the words in question mean something entirely different when read or heard "in context". The soundbites played over and over in the media are entirely consistent with Rev. Wright's worldview, as expressed in writings, speeches, sermons, and his church's website.
Are we voting for him or his Minister? It seems like you can't find enough to "harp" on, so, you are like a dog with a bone.
What if we play his game and trust him that he didn't recognize rev. Wright Then he is not smart enough. We don't need president who couldn't understand the minds of world leaders.
WHITE FOLKS WAKE UP..BEFORE ITS 2 LATE..AND JOHN KERRY AND KENADY BILLRICHARDSON,LEHY THEY HUG ITCH .................OTHER BIG ..........................................TIME....................................................................................................................AND OBAMA.......................................................................................................................................................................STUPID............................................................................................................................................................U KNOW WHAT PASTER TALK ABOUT UITED STATE OF AMARICA....Y HE IS STILL LEAVING IN THE COUNTRY.YYYYYYYYYYYYY.YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY??????????????????????
I FEEL SENATOR OBAMA IS SAYING WHAT HE NEEDS TO SAY TO GET THE NOMINATION. I IMAGINE REV. WRIGHT AND SEN. OBAMA WILL STAY IN
CONSTANT TOUCH BECAUSE YOU DON'T JUST TURN YOUR BACK ON SOMEONE THAT YOU CALLED YOUR MENTOR FOR 20+ YEARS.
This guy scares me. As a person who works very hard for my money, I'm so TIRED of supporting all these people on welfare. Get off your butts and get a job and stop living off ME!
For the first time in my adult life I am horrified of Hussien Obama and black churches
Greta, I made sure to watch the show...He said,
1..Rev is retired
2..If he had not retird and he had not understood the outcry from the country, He would have CONSIDERED leaving....
Juan, you seem to be jelous of Barak, as most Black men like you do, you cannot even be fair...Did you hear th speech Greta and Juan. Call me me at 757-855-0286, Jennifer...I am a Mcain voter, but I still have my soul to account for in fron of God, not Fox news and nt Obama etc
The comments by the Rev. Jeremiah Wright are too horrific.
Anyone associated with, supports or defends this talk, or participates in meetings using this vile rhetoric is exhibiting racial hatred to the highest degree.
This type of exteme racial hatred rants will get out of hand again.
I heard talk like this in a church in 1967 just before the race riots in Chicago.
If Obama becomes president defending these sermons of hate we will witness the most vile and disgusting racial hatred acts against various persons by individuals and groups who think they are empowered by such talk.
If there is no change in the momentum for Obama and he becomes president America will be so involved with racial hatred it will lose it's way making the current economic situation and standing in the view of the world far worse than it is now. All Americans will suffer greatly.
Obama will then be known as the president that failed America when a good president was needed most. Because of this real fear I have changed my delegate vote and will no longer support Obama and his radical supporters. Those who wish to be blinded to the obvious facts.
WE KNOW NOTHING ABOUT THIS MAN OTHER THAN WHAT HE TELLS US WHEN AND HOW HE WANTS TO SPIN IT. I HOPE HE DOES NOT GET THE VOTE OF THE TYPICAL WHITE PERSON. HE DOES NOT DESERVE IT. CAN'T THE MEDIA HOLD HIM MORE ACCOUNTABLE.
I am proud that Senator Obama will be the next President of the United States of America.
Why is Greta's show based solely on the Democratic election since she's on Fux News, a far right-wing propaganda station? Besides, isn't her show suppose to investigate unsolved crime mysteries? PLEASE! She needs to stick to her day job so-to-speak! LOL!
I am sick and tired of hearing about his white grandmother.
greta, you and others on this network have serious problems with the possibility of a black man becoming president. you have twisted what he said on the view today. if you are going to discuss these issues,why not be honest and fair and stop stop twisting his words or intentionly leaving words out of his statements. it is so obvious how prejudice you and some of your other co-workers are. you make watching cable news network very tiresome and not worth my time......
It is evident to me that Obama embraces the very thought process of Rev. Wright demonstrated publicly by sitting in the church pews for 20 years and declaring in his PA speech more needs to be done for the African American people who lived and who's generation lived in slavery. Get real...........
If Obama becomes President, we will revert backwards and relive the civil rights movement; this time, however, it will be a hostile movement instead of the peacement movement by Rev. Martin Luther KIng.

The reason it is hypocritical is because Barak Obama AGREES with Rev. Wright. What is going to happen if Barak becomes president and applies his learned lessons from his church? Barak is lying to the American people so he can become president and apply Rev. Wrights racist teachings from the Blac (White) House!
obama and his preacher and oj have really made me closer to thinking bad thoughts about black people than anything else that has happened to me in over 60 years. such a shame. instead of this getting better, its getting worse.
How naive I am, shocked to hear of the toxic fallacies perpetuated by black pastors and the willingness of black congregants to believe. And one such pastor labeling the AIDS fable as metaphorical, as in poetry. Please. No one ever asks the correct questions about Obama: has he been inculcated with the creed of Wright's church? If so, how will his beliefs be manifested should he become president? Finally--what's with those mesmerized throngs? Frankly, I'm scared.
I find it shocking that Obama has fooled so many people. He is surrounded by racists filled with hate. The very people who have mentored and influenced his life. The truth shall come out.
BTW, you go Hilary. Your are a fighter, a survivor and must never give up!
The media is doing a good job of ganging up on on Sen. Obama in order to give Sen. Clinton a chance to win the nomination, by taking attention off the issues. Sen. Obama is trying to bring our nation to a better place, and Sen. Clinton is spreading hate and racism that is dividing our nation. The media is using a double standard!
It sickens me also that One group of people can't stand hearing the truth about the other groups oppression...Imus spoke on a public netwoork Rev wright was in his Church. and unless i have not heard about all the sound bites what did he say that was not truth??? Wright nor Imus is running for Office Why the Media have not broadcast Vice President Chaney's remark last week when a reported stated 2/3 of americans due not agree on Iraq issues his reply was SO! and thats okay and thats not discussed He is an elected official
RE: By: Scott | Mar 28, 22:14
Are many whites hypocritical for saying MLK was a great man when he also said bad things about america during vietnam? Gretas racist and so are the people that watch her show. Im done.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
So, Scott, why are you watching Greta's show if you write that all of us who watch Greta's show are racists and Greta is a racist? It is ludicrous how so many people like to "gag" anyone who may have criticism of an African American. You can not put a muzzle on 88% of the population of the USA because you don't agree with their comments. If you like that type of "control", there are a lot of communist countries where you can set up residence. It's time the people of the USA see beyond color is right. See beyond color means all people can offer opinions, criticisms about certain issues, statements, beliefs = and do so without considering if you are addressing a person of a different race or ethic origin or the same race and/or ethnic origin. Stop throwing "You're a racist" around because you don't agree with the person's opinion. It's old. It's lost any effectiveness it may have had, and it's ignorant.
Senator is an honest person and I believe him when he said he would have left the church. Everyone is jumping the guy that he should have left earlier but I am sure it is because of Rev. Wright good influence that Senator Obama turn out the way he is. Why should he leave the church? He is going to praise god not Rev. Wright or any Pastor in the Church. Every one have the right to freedom of speech and should be upset with Rev. Wright but why does the media harassing Senator Obama for those horrific comments. The media need to stop mud slinging Senator Obama and let him stick to the issue that is important.
I'm so amazed that Obama thinks the public is so naive...that he would of quit his church but the Revenend is retired. Oh! Come on ...he just retired one month ago...get real we are not dumb! My, My! What absolute poor jugement to stay in a church for 20 years under that type of leadership. Birds of a feather flock together and Obama said so himself that his Revenend was his mentor and like a Uncle to him. I don't want that type of person leading the United States!!!!
How many candates are running for president? It appears that Sen. Obama is the only one because he is the only person you all continue to talk down .
What do you all have against HIM. Further more Rev. Wright is not running for president. If you have questions about Rev. Wright than ask him. I believe Sen. Obama will be a GREAT president.
Louisiana
We need to be very afraid of Obama! There is no way he did not agree with Rev. Wright. He has been like a son to Wright for over 20 years, which means they must have discussed their feelings about America and whites more than once. He had to know what the reverend was like! Mr. Obama should not be in the White House!! Racism goes both ways, and the black people who cry "racist" the loudest are bigger racists than many white people.
Wake up now before it's too late, America!
Apparently Obama thinks that we are stupid if he wants us to beleive that he hadn't heard any of the Wright racist comments. Another thing is he doesn't have the 2025 delegates needed for the nomination while his supporters are wanting Hillary to drop out. They are the ones that sound stupid.
I am educated....I am informed....I am thoughtful...and I am an independent.....and I do not see how anyone can vote for someone who can't make a rational judgement about his "pastor" until he is pushed against a wall.......what on earth are his supporters thinking????? Do they really think the American public is simply a bunch of brainless fools???? WE THINK... WE ASSESS... WE CHOOSE..... we don't wait for someone to force us to do the right thing. Barack.....what were you waiting for?????
The problem is not just pastor wright. The problem is the black liberation theology that permeates the entire congregation of that church and which wright clearly espouses. No one could sit in that church for 20 years without knowing what James Cone's black liberation theology is about. It's a divisive theology, it's a theology that clearly supports hatred of whites. Watching the wright messages of hatred clearly showed the applause and back-patting by others in the congregation. Obama didn't notice those things? That hateful theology was posted in the church (until recently) and on its website as well. It is not the theology of uniting us as children of God and followers of Jesus Christ. It clearly said that if God doesn't hate white people, then that God should be killed. How can that not be considered divisive and not clearly understood by an intelligent, highly educated man who regularly attended that church? I've no doubt that there are many in that church who do good works in their community. I've no doubt that pastor wright did good things in the community. That's not the point. It's the hateful theology he believes and preached, even if only occasionally. If he truly believed it, and he has said he does, then there is no way Obama and everyone in that church doesn't know that. How can anyone preach that hatred to children and expect them to grow up in an open-minded way? That theology preaches victimology to keep people down, not to lift them up. That theology preaches that people should not try to lift themselves up, but rather they should expect the government to lift them up, and if the government doesn't do that to their satisfaction, then the government is the enemy that should be damned. What a terrible, brainwashing thing to do to people! No wonder Michelle thinks America is mean and has never been proud of America before now. She's been brainwashed listening to that hogwash.
BO is a liar. He and his wife could not have sat in that church for 20 yrs. and not have known what was being said. If that is the case, he is not attentive enough to President. Good judgment? BO and his wife are both racists. He will never win against the Big GOP machine, they will rip him into shreds and make him cry like a girl.
I don't believe Obama's comments on Wright. Obama is as much a racist as Wright. I don't trust his judgement, therefore, I can't vote for him to lead our country.
People never lie so much as after a hunt, during a war or before an election. Otto Von Bismarck
I do not and will not vote for Obama. He is tarnished and shows poor judgement. Why the superdelegates are so for Obama is beyond me. He is unelectable. Period.
My prediction: Hillary is the nominee.
She will win Penn. by 18 points and shock the supers.
Of coarse, his remarks were hypocritical. Senator Obama, needs to learn how to be a Senator, before he goes to the head of the country. How can anybody believe, he didn't realise the theology or anti semetic, racial, and American Doctorine of a church, and minister of a church he didn't just attend but chose to belong to. I'm a democrat, and I'm here...besides Lou Dobbs, Fox is the only other station I can stand to watch. I am one of those Dems, who would vote for poor old John McCain who frankly needs to retire. Poor ol man, pains me to look at him. We can take him over a racist President. I can't imagine where they find the people in the polls...Nobody can find much to critisize Obama on, he hasn't done anything, besides try to embed himself firmly in the African American Community. He has no record, of anything else. He unlike either other candidate, has worked for many years for all the people, not just one. He has a major identy crisis. We can't choose our race either.
Its not hypocritical because Don Imus said some racist stereotypical comment about a group of college educated young minority women who clearly beat a lot of odds and couldn't be further from what he said. Rev. Wright on the other hand had only made the mistake of telling a harsh truth about America. The problem is that main stream America hates to face the truth, however clearly portrayed through our history of inequalities and foreign polices.
Obama is Far from spinning the people that is spinning is You Greta and the rest of FAUX News. I have NEVER saw in my life the media blame a candidate 4 guilty of association I guess John Mccain is A Racist because of Hagee and Hannity is a Nazi because of Hal Turner. I cant believe you people are the right wing idiots who want to Bomb Bomb Bomb Bomb Iran you warmongering right wingers.
This is the exact same thing that has been going on in America since I have been old enough to realize it. Only white people can be considered racist which is just ridiculous. Imus was doing his "schtick" and the "good reverend" was "preaching the gospel". Are you kidding me? The bible does not teach anything close to what the reverand was saying. Back to Obama, he gave $27,500 to the gospel where he was not present for many of these sermons. Fine, but he had to be aware of the tone of some of these sermons and obviously supports these teachings. Americans give more money to the world than all other nations combined and the reverand was talking about "America's chickens coming back to roost". Obama, if nothing else, is one thing, a politician, and he will say whatever he needs to say to get elected. I do not call that honorable. He should have said the reverand is not acting like a man of God with these sermons and not allow his young children to learn from this man. He would not have gone to this church for 20+ years if he did not believe the teachings or allow his family to hear the likes of these sermons that the church felt warranted recording and selling as the best of Jeremiah Wright! Obama supporters, listen with an open mind and try to find substance in his speeches. Substance! But what is really sad, our other choices are Clinton and McCain, we all better pray!
To #60 Beth, we know the Rev. Wright is not runing for president.The problem lies with Obama's judgement and honesty in reguards to Rev. Wright.
DOES ANYONE KNOW WHAT OBAMA WAS BEFORE HE FOUND JESUS WITH WRIGHT 20YRS AGO? THINK ABOUT IT...............SCAREY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am proud that Senator Obama will be the next President of the United States of America. I believe this poll is very faulty in that I have voted 10 times already...
The Trinity Church is an upscale church with a celebrity pull. People go there because it feeds their victicratic guilt of being prosperous, and helps to assuage that black prosperity guilt by hearing sermons from a very upper middle class minister (from Virginia) which villify the 'white man' and accuse white America as being the cause of all problems in the self-inflicted segregated communities of Chicago's Southside.
Rev. Wright is another dinosaur in the museum of post-Civil Rights lunacy...I have seen Jesse Jackson at that church (although practically ignored by Wright) and Mercedes Benzes and Jaquars line the streets and parking lots around the building (which is interestingly positioned near a railroad track, at which one can hear train whistles blowing on a regular basis).
No one has brought up the fact that the lunatic WRight also demonized Bill Clinton in one of his sermons, remember the 'riding dirty' reference to Bill and MOnica Lewinsky??? Lunatic Wright accused Hillary of not ever being called a Ni---r, but I doubt if Obama has ever been called a Ni---r, either. Lets not forget that Obama did not grow up on Chicago's Southside, or even on the Mainland of America. HIs background is diverse and international, and he did not experience any of the Chicago Black Democratic Drama which has produced so many ineffective and angry politicians in that corrupt city. It was Michelle Obama who took her husband to the church, as she is the one who is truly Afro-Centric, and could not ever be taken seriously as a First Lady. There is just too much anger and baggage she carries around, and everyone can see it, even if they don't want to admit it.
I encourage people to listen to Wrights sermons in their entirety, as they are even worse than one can imagine. These were not just sound bites, but rather the Essence of his Liberation Theology. Liberation Theology is an evolution from socialistic theory, particularly from countries such as Cuba. It is not Biblically based, and is a false doctrine.
Wrights' comments are not just controversial...they are absolutely in error, particularly in regards to AIDS in the black community. Whites who attend this church are condescending and attempting to heal their own internalized guilt from the perceived sins of their ancestors. They are as looney as the other black congregants. It has been suggested that this is not a Biblically based church, but rather a branch of a metaphysical form of doctrine, which has a form of Godliness, but not according to knowledge. In other words, it is a cult. I hope that the IRS will severely fine this church for it's politicizing from the pulpit. I also hope that FOX will begin to interview the great black religious leaders of our day who are preaching the word, i.e., T.D. Jakes, Creflo Dollar, Kenneth Ulmer, Noel Jones - and help mainstream America to change the possible viewpoint that ALL black ministers and churches exemplify this type of hatred and racism. Even if MOST do, it is important to offer a balance in your reporting, and bring on some wise leaders who are NOT of this ILK. Obama obviously was NOT a regular church goer, which does not make him look any better. He was a member of this church because it made him look like he was connected with 'the community'...which he has struggle to prove throughout his time in Chicago.
Obama needs to forget the Presidency. He lucked up as a Senator from Illinois, after the scandals which took place in Illinois. He would do better to run for the Governor of Illinois and prove his ability to govern. Even with that, these problems with his minister, his church, even his Angry Wife, will not be long forgotten. Obama has insulted America by referring to a group of people as 'typical white', even his own grandmother, which is reprehensible. Obama's problems are only just beginning. Wait until you hear the details about how he bought that house on Hyed Park Blvd!
EVERYBODY READ #348.......Now those are facts in that FRAUD Barack Hussein Obama's OWN WORDS!!!! Whoa is this country if that a**hole gets the nomination or the general election. He will send this country straight to hell in a flaming handbasket! He is NOT for America! NO OBAMA!!! And I am BLACK too!!!! Not every black person is stupid and backing this fraud!!!
I am so sick of the blacks who are defending Obama & the Rev. Wright along with the black churches who's ministers are preaching hate, especially towards whites and America. The blacks say this is how they feel. Well excuse me, if white ministers and white churches preached hate towards blacks, and they said that is how they felt, you best believe there would be an uproar in the black community. Those white ministers/churches would be targeted for being racists. Where is Jesse Jackson & Al Shapton to speak out again what these black ministers/churches are saying. Racisim is not just whites problems. The way I see it blacks are evermore racist than whites. I am sick of being blamed for what is wrong in the black communities simply because I am white. Obama tell the truth.
What is wrong with americans? If this black guy gets it for President the white people may as well forget it. We will be hurting. Blacks don't take up for whites. They are completely for themselves. Look what Rev. Wright said about Hillary. They are all racist. white people try so hard to not be racist and watch everything they say not to be racist but blacks get buy with saying anything they like. It makes me sick. Obama's mother doesn't believe in God why should he if he was raised up without God in his life. I think this Rev. was a made-up thing and it blew up in his face.
After all of this, People will still vote for him. Blacks want raceism to go away, but they are the ones that are keeping it alive. If it dies they lose their leverage to get their feet in the doors everywhere.
Because we are all taken back by the preaching in Black churches, Now we know why we should be afraid of three blacks coming down the street toward you. They have been taught to hate everyone and that everyone owns them something. Even your life.
I am sick of the doible standard that is taking place in the USA. This nonsense has been going on for far too long. You hear the Black Church then you hear the black experience then you have BET or Black entertainment television then you have all black universities. When is this nonsense going to stop.
If one were to have a white TV station or an all white university the uproar would be deafening. This double standard and racist view has got to stop.
We are Americans, all of us. Not Black,White, Asian or Hispanic. Americans first.
#322 Sabrina - Let me guess, your an Obama fan! What a really UNINTELIGENT comment. Watch out Sabrina, your IQ is showing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am an over 70 white registered Republican woman who earlier decided to vote for Obama. Now that I have seen his deceipt and lying...not a chance. I resent his comment, "Typical white person." How dare he say that!!! I never knew the hatred and racism that is being preached and promoted in black churches. No wonder we still have race problems, and it's not "Whitey's" fault any more. Obama as president is terrifying!
We keep hearing that it is incorrect to be judged on whom you associate with.I would like to point out that if you associate with Racist and America haters that is the only way you have of being judged in todays sociaty and you should rightly expect to be..
He seems to see it differently when it comes to his situation, and i dont think that is good president material, or a good leader in general....
Obama's past actions and speaking have indicated that both he and his wife believe the bigotry, racism and hatred that spews forth from the Reverend's mouth, as well as the fact that he and his wife are teaching this to their children. This proves beyond a doubt that his judgement is flawed and the change he talks about might best be left in the pews of that church.
Greta,
I hope this comment can be read to all who watch your show, or "all" of Fox.
I think all of these people, black, white, whatever--that do not like the U.S.A. should get out of America and go to Africa or wherever else they think is better! As a matter of fact, I think people who talk about America like the (supposedly), Rev. White did should not be allowed to be in America!!!
For the record, I am not a racist. I am a proud American!
Thank you.
J.D.
Mr. Obama is hypocritical. Dodgeball all the way! Mr. Obama began a campaign on unity and bringing people together. He attended a church for 20 years and has a close association with Jeremiah Wright who is a divisive figure.
Mr. Obama knew the message that was being offerred in his church. He is an intelligent man and I believe he can figure out what his reverend is preaching. Jeremiah Wright is well known throughout his community. Okay, for the sake of argument, forget that Jeremiah Wright married Mr. Obama, forget that he baptized his children, but for Mr. Obama to have Jeremiah Wright come to his new house and bless it.
It is obvious that Mr. Obama thinks highly of Jeremiah Wright, no one would go out of their way to have this done. Based on Mr. Obama's explanation, anyone can say anything and he believes taht you have to look at the whole picture and not the snippets. But a bunch of snippets comprise the whole picture; you are the sum of your parts.
And for Mr. Obama to say he would not attend his church if Jeremiah Wright still preached there is such a political statement. You know, everyone always says that Senator Clinton would do anything to get into the White House. Well, I think the same of Mr. Obama and no one points that out.
I also would like to know if Mr. Obama still attends this church with the new reverend. And does the new reverend (which I think he does) espouse and hold the same philosophy as Jeremiah Wright.
Bottom line, is Mr. Obama has double-standards and he can say one thing and it means another but when someone else says something it means what he says. Mr. Obama's explanation concerning Imus and Wright defines hypocrisy.
All we hear about are the jails and prisons being filled with young black men and how terrible it is that America has not found a solution for this problem. As long as young children grow up in churches like the Rev. Wright's where they hear venom spewed every Sunday, what else can we expect. Sunday after Sunday filling the minds of young blacks with hate toward their country and everyone who is not black seems to me the root cause of a lot of their problems. Barack Obama must surely be a sloooow learner - he wants us to believe that he sat in those pews for 20 years and only now does he feel that Rev. Wright's words are to be condemned. How convenient! If it has taken him all this time to learn about his pastor, eight short years in the White House would certainly not come close to the time it takes him to catch on!

#73 Andrea - May I ask than WHY you are hear?
Reply: I was channel surfing and stopped long enough to hear Greta mention this vote and decided to log on and vote as well as read what you people were posting.
While I am on a rant here, let me ask;
Who in the Sam Hill do these people who want Clinton to drop out of a race which is not over?
Do they think voters no longer matter?
I suggest these corny old politicians retire themselves and get out of our faces with their nonsense.
These idiots will do anything to get Obama into office.
Obama is not the kind of man who should run for dog catcher.
My folks fought for this country, built this country, and voted Democratic for the last 200 years.
We have earned the right to vote.
The news media seems to think it is ok to run a man for president who has a past like Obama. Get off it folks, we are not stupid.
What if a white man who had racist past ran for for president? What happens when a white person say any word which can possibly be called racist?
Good Lord.
What's the matter with people, anyhow?
I never really trusted Obama, that's the problem with many of the young voters. They've never voted before! They didn't have expierence of voting for just about anything before this, and they vote what the majority of thier peers vote. Now the really the only choice we'll have after hearing all of the crap about Obama is to have another republican in office, it's not necessarilly a bad thing for a republican to be in office, but for a republican that George W. Bush supports and a republican that seems to have many of the same views as GWB.
The way i see it, its a lose lose situation for th enext 4 years.
understatement of the year! i am a "typical white woman" who is very afraid...
I for one would like to know what the black's want.. We give the house they destory,we give the health ins. ,we give them free ed., which they don't learn just destory the school or act up where know one else can learn . Most white 's that can send there children to private school which we pay again..We give them food ..What eles do thery want... A JOB WOULD BE NICE , AND NOT WAITING ON A CHECK AT THE 1ST OF THE MO. AND STOP TAKING YOUR FRIENDS KIDS TO THE FOOD STAMP OFFICE OR THE IRS TO GET MORE FOOD OR BIGER CHECKS
You people cant take the truth America is The Racist Country in the World!!!!! the whole world wants OBAMA so U stupid Americans dont make the same mistake with John Mccain You Made with Bush.
I am not only SHOCKED what I'm leaarning about African-American Churches I'm DISAPPOINTED. Wow is this what is being taught their children??? In my church Calvary Chapel WE STUDY THE SCRIPTURES. My view of how far we as AMERICANS have come has been obiliterated. This is how they really feel??? Obama is lying through his teeth. 20 Years! 20 Years! OBAMA ASKED THIS MAN NOT TO BE INVOLVED 1 YEAR AGO HE KNEW THEN THAT THE REV. WAS A TIME . This man is not material for the President. I also now believe HE HAS ALTERNATIVE MOTIVES. iT'S A SAD DAY IN AMERICA.
Mr.Obama is good friend of this nazi and faithfull member of his church.His"Ifs" and "woulds" ARE hypocritical.He's not senatorial nor he's presidential material.In fact,I do not think he's fit to run a conveniance store.
Greta and the rest of you Obama haters should get a life and while you're at it, brush up on your Black history. As far as Rev. Wright, he is not trash. Black people are not trash. The word TRASH belongs to the other race not the Black race. You people a bashing Obama and accusing him of being untrustworthy, etc. You people need to be asking yourselves why the Clintons have not turned over their tax records. Get a life... get over it. Bottomline, you're likely to have a Black president who you will unite this country. Stop being afraid... and throw your racist thoughts out the window.
Obama uses his pretty words to cover his real intent - his grand scale plans are Socialist! No wonder he found Wrights style and words acceptable - Obama learned his community organizing methods under the ideology of socialist Saul Alinsky teachings - Be an Agitator - stir up the masses, get them worked up and move them to action. Scary stuff! Watch the pretty words...
To comment number 395...I think you need to read and get your facts straight. Those men WERE given that disease and then not treated...Once again, because history has not been paid close enough attention to, someone has decided to re-write it...Those men were injected with and given that disease and then not treated to see how it would behave in the Black man...
what I think is that all of you Fox journalists are such hidden lracists. We can tell by the way you treat your story in the news. When something concern Obama you will keep it in the news as long as you can to hurt him but as far as Hillary is concern you talk about it for 1/2 a day. You ugly, stupid , crazy racists should get out of the way and let Obama get what GOD has reserved for him. Rev Jeremiah is not part of Obama's campain and he is an American , free to say what he wants and his words are his not Obama's. you ugly anchor should look at your nasty shaking mouth instead of disturbing our OBAMA. Enough is enough, he deserve a break on this issue. Obama is not the one who prepare the Rev sermons so leave him alone. I SAY LEAVE OBAMA ALONE OR gOD WILL DEAL WITH YOU RACISTS TV BROADCASTERS.
Clearly Jeremiah Wright is not the only black opinion leader to paranoid racist statements. Just a few weeks ago, on Tavis Smiley's annual "State of the Balck Union" event, comedian Dick Gregory alleged that white people were sneaking into black neighborhoods and misting the area with Magnesium solution. His theory being that Magnesium makes people violent and white people were ceeding black neighborhoods with violence inducing chemicals.
You have to feel pity seeing someone, who used to have such a great comic mind, become so twisted with hate to become that paranoid. But you also have to ask "How can this be good for the black community?" How can the children raised under this paranoid hatred ever feel safe suceeding and "fitting in?"
You also have to ask isn't this the opposite of the Christian message? Christian icons, like Joseph, the outcast Jew in Egypt, rose above all kinds of reasons for resentment and became a great man. Christ talked about the impact of the way you see things and how it shapes the soul. Where human flesh can always find another reason to blame, to play the angry victim, to seek revenge, to disparage, to withdraw, to hate, the Christian mesage is about rising above that.
Black America today is struggling with the forgotten 40%. Civil rights has worked for many, but a lingering 40% seems stuck. This 40% is afraid to be left behind. The 60% is sometimes embarassed by the plight of the 40. What to do? Who's the cause? How can this sort of racial hatred not be part of it? If you work among people you believe to have invented AIDS to kill your people, how can you ever fit in? If it's that easy to blame whitey and whitey is that powerful, evil and pervasive, where do you find the courage to persevere .... that courage that all of us need when our dreams fall short, or life seems unfair.
Regardless of what the guests said, I've read mosts of Kings published writings, and I never read anything like Jermiah Wright. I read the opposite: A sense of both races joined together against a common foe. A recognition and spiritual belief in the corrossive nature of hate -- for all -- and the uplifting power of love -- for all.
Seeing black pastors lead their people in such a way saddens me deeply. In God's eyes it may have been Martin's time to go, but where are the new black leaders the African Amerian community so desparately needs? Is there not one?
Greta you and Fox News are a bunch of racist! All I hear is Obama and Wright don't have anything else to talk about? Why are we giving Wright so much power over us? Just like the white man is trying to tell the black man to get over it I am telling you (Greta) and Fox News and anyone else that is bothered by Wright's comments to get over it! Don't you see you are acting just like you think the black man is acting. But you think you are justified in feeling the way you feel just like the black man think he is justified in the way he is feeling. So who's wrong and who's right? You both are! Who am I or who are you to say how a person is suppose to feel! It's your feelings and I and you should respect that! There is a lot a hatred coming from the media and I am really surprised and disappointed by that. I expect the "typical" American to say things unfavorable about each other but I feel the media has a responsibility to take a nutural position. Also, the difference between Imus and Wright is Wright's comments came from personal experiences that created prejudices and Imus comments came from ignorance that created prejudices. A black man having negative feelings about whites is more understandable than a white man having negative feelings about black women on a basketball team. Or was Imus' feelings something deeper that we don't know about?
Greta, pay attention to the Investor's Business Daily, Issues and Insights section where there are numerous articles on Senator Obama's true intentions as President for this country. Article titles such as: Obama Soft on Crime? 3/25; Obama's Real Faith, 3/24; Soft Power, 3/12; and The Audacity of Help, 3/12 26 Mar 08 had an interesting article entitled "Obama's Pro-Hamas Church", where his church reprinted a Hamas Manifesto written by a terrorist/fugitive wanted by the FBI. There are many things about Obama that people know nothing about and are scarey. It is apparent on this board that most have figured out that he is NOT what he portrays himself to be.
AMERICA! Open your eyes and ears! don't be defeated by this con artist to the max!!! The only interests he has is for himself, not one of giving one's life for his country! This Obama doesn't have what it takes to be our president, he's truly UNamerican, he's proven it time after time. If his stuporous stuttering of words don't prove that when he's trying to 'clarify' what he's done these past 20+ years, then just LOOK at the man when he's around our American flag that people 'die for' and when everyone is saying the Pledge of Allegiance!! This political correctness has beat us to our knees, and makes a traitor acceptable if he's the right color! I'm not a 'white person', I'm what racists like to call a minority. But at this time in my life, I'm afraid for what will happen to America if we continue to take this road downhill. True loyal Americans didn't come to America with the hate, and disgust of what Obama has and is pushing down our throats! and its so sad for me and my family to see what he's doing to ruin this beautiful Country!! God help us all!
#369 Dan - I'm glad you let us dummies here know the truth
hey ...check out my new mansion......hate speech made me rich....so be hate-in!
The rantings of Obama's reverend fan the flames of hate and division, and are contrary to the teachings of Christ. If we Christians have demanded Muslims speak out against those who subvert their religion, are we any less guilty when we remain silent as our faith is defiled? The world is witnessing a perversion of all that is holy - and during our most holy week. Our nation, indeed our world, needs desperately one who has the courage and wisdom to guide us back from the precipice. Obama is not the one.
One last thought....have you noticed how Obama supporters are disappearing like rats jumping off a burning ship? Much to their dismay, the Democrats are a long, long way from finalizing a presidential nominee and the more time passes, the more rats will jump because Obama is going to talk and talk and talk and stuff his foot further in his mouth! Hillary can't tell the truth so that leaves no place for Democrats to go. My prediction is that McCain's popularity is going to grow dramatically over the next several months.
fter reading many of the responses I think many of the responders are white bigots themselves. The comments of Rev Wright made many whites feel uncomfortable. The truth hurts and per the remarks of another "whites hate to be uncomfortable". It seems whites are only feeling a small taste of what minorities have been subjected to for decades. Imus comments didn't make whites uncomfortable. It was business as always. Maybe the Catholics need to leave their church along with the pope who should denounce his positions considering all the child molesters they have leading the church. Give me a break ... Many of the responders called Obama a liar... he who is without sin cast the first stone.
it appears to me that some of the black churches in america would be a good place for obl to get recruits.
The only reason he is not leaving the church - he believes what they teach - He says he is for all the people. I don't believe him. Not now. You can't be a member of something and not believe what they teach. Dr King did not teach or preach hate and I get tired of Trinitiy saying what he would do if he was alive today. Obama and this Pastor hates Whites. He will say anything to get into office. The Clintons will also. When you are that liberial - The only thing that matters is what you want. Say anything, Do anything, Walk on anybody that gets in your way to have what you want. Thats all that matters. I will be what you want me to be, Say what you want to hear until I get what I want. I am all that matters.
No way you can stay in a church that long, and not see this side of a person. He's speaks unity, and hope, but behind closed doors he harbours the animosity that many Blacks feel or he would of been at another church prior to this story breaking. Wait until all the financial mess comes out about he ministry he was attending.
Barack HUSSEIN Obama is such a liar. Why is it that no one is questioning that when the Rev. Wright story broke Obama said he was not in the pews when any derogatory statements were made, but then all of a sudden on his RACE speech, he asked the question to himself and finally stopped lying to all of America and admitted that he was in the pews of the church. Is that someone you want running our country? He is the anti-Christ! In one of his speeches he also referred to himself as the "Messiah," what does that tell you? Confirms my opinion all along. He is embarked on this huge "CHANGE" mission for America, just exactly what kind of change, he has never said. He has ties to a known terrorist that bombed NYC buildings and people are still insane about this man. When will the American people wake up and see what is in store for our nation if he is nominated, worse yet: elected. America is not ready for the kind of change he will bestow upon us. Say your prayers now, God help us all, with President Barack Obama, the Apocalypse is coming soon!
To #388: WRONG!!!!
For a candidate that says he would like to unite the country by staying with this church and Rev Writes comments for 20 years his actions are not consistent with his rhetoric. Therefore he cannot be believed.
Dr. John
I was impressed with Senator Obama,but not anymore. Rev.Wright will start another Civil war if we as Americans let this continue. I am ashamed of Senator Obama for not leaving his church leader at least 19 years ago. The Black community is acting exactly like they did when OJ Simposon was not found guilty. Why would they do this??
GRETA!!! You go, girl!!! This is a very important story!! This man wants to be President, for goodness sake!!! We have to know where he stands!!
Remember the old saying "Birds of a feather flock together"!!
BWA KAKAKAKAKAKAKAKAKAKAKAKAKAKAKAKAKAKAKA!!! LMBAO at #403!!!!! that was great! I was thinking the same thing!!! OMG that was GREAT!
Obama has shown very poor judgement in his association with the reverend Wright. Obama's speech about words, just words , ring in my ears. He had the choice to stay and listen. His letting his wife and children be subjected to Wright's influence was very, very poor judgement. Not presidential at all. He is just like all the politicians; where is the CHANGE that he speaks of.
Were the statements made by The Rev. Rice right or wrong? Those of you without fault, throw the first stone.
#435 read # 415
People if you want to know this man read # 415 and read his books.
#388 you sure like to make assumptions about all of us - let me think.................. are you for BORACK??????????????????
I believe we DEMOCRATS should unite and vote REPUBLICAN
Probably most of you that are posting Obama and praising Clinton have no idea what Africam Americans suffer on a daily basis, and especially those of us who bear deep scars of racism. Until you have suffered racism or has spoken with someone who can explain it to you, then you have no way of understanding what this is all about. BTW do you actually know or have ever actually met an African American?
After he (Obama) admitted hearing some? of the comments the Rev. made, one can only believe that he is a liar and I can't imagine having him as President of our United States, and his wife with her remark about our country, it's hard to imagine her being our First Lady.
It is so sad to hear all of the racist comments, however it does not surprise me
considering the way the white media take a story and spin it ( sound bites)the way they want it. If people took the time to listen to the whole sermon instead of just listening to sound bites they would better understand what Rev Wright was saying .
Why can't theyoung and other who have been so enamored by Obama wake up and see how he has been taking them for suckers! And he continues it even more with his slick, evasive, and contining slowly and subtely changing his explanation of what he has heard and/or known that Rev Wright has been saying all these years.
And why are so many guests on the various programs allowed to make Wright the subject. THENLACK OF OBAMA's JUDGEMENT AND HIS CURRENT COVERUP SHOULD BE EVERYONE'S CURRENT CONCERN.

I wish someone would ask Obama if he would give a free pass to McCain or Romney if they attended a KKK rally or had a close friend that was a clan member
Barack Hussein Obama is squirming like a little spider stuck in his huge web of lies. What's next - will he have never heard of Rev. Wright? He is a liar and a racist monger.
Don Imus was not an entertainer. He was a journalist...An INFORMER...But if you want to play yhat card...Jim Jones was a preacher, mentor, Pastor...David Koresh was a preacher, mentor and Pastor...Need I go any further???
I am so sick of hearing about the "oppressed black man"! It's people like Wright (and from the sound of it) the black church as a whole the keep racism alive and well. Obama is a hypocrtical fool who does not need to be anywhere near the White House. And as far as him trying to play this whole thing down by saying in his speech that we have all heard our pastors say things we did not agree with; Well Mr Obama, you are offinsive. I have never heard the pastor of any Christian church make statements like "If God loves the black man the that God should die! It would take me about two seconds to run out of any church if I heard that. Black folks need to get over their "whoe is me" crap and get on with being Americans!
Obama is hypocritical to the core. On the other hand, I am horrified at the racism coming out of the Rev. Wright/Obama thing. I get disillusioned watching in disgust and horror at some black commentators justifying this "black philosophy" at any cost, but I get encouraged listening to other blank analysts like Juan Williams and others who are just normal human beings. I get disappointed in myself that I find myself "mistrusting" some blacks after listening to certain black individuals have such double standards at any cost, such as Sharpten, Jackson, Wright, etc.. I'm just so thankful and must REMEMBER there are normal black individuals such as Juan Williams, ohhhhh..I can't think of the other's names...I see them on Sean Hannity a lot..and there's a beautiful black lady who wrote a book with a funny name..'kaboodle' or something.. These African American people are wonderful people who are fair and genuine. I trust and respect them to the highest degree. When I feel that blanket mistrust from watching "bad eggs" - I must remember to remember the "good eggs" and not judge the mass by the ones that spew hate and one-sidedness. I must say I am glad that we can now talk about 'the elephant in the room' and finally say that "some" blacks have to stop using the 'victim' thing in dishonest ways. It aggravates me because the dishonest few ruin it for the others. I hate prejudice, and I hate it either way.
white people need to understand that blacks are done wrong on a daily basis. We come in last, in everything. Some is are on doing. minorities just want the playing field leveled. We just want a fair chance. Don't get me wrong, white people face some of the same struggle's we as minorities go through. but I beleave, we as monorities are being neglected on purpose. you can act like it ain't true. obama is going to help everyone. get off the dumb stuff. there are real issues that need covering.
For a candidate that says he would like to unite the country by staying with this church and Rev Wright's comments for 20 years his actions are not consistent with his rhetoric. Therefore he cannot be believed.
Dr. John
I notice he hesitates quite a bit when he lies.... I also find it interesting why many Americans don't see the real Obama... a charismatic hypocrit. Just what is the "REAL" change? Great and Fox, keep the pressure on!!! God Bless America
Greta, if we are taking Rev. Wright's sermons out of context, then what context did he mean all of these wacko statements in? Racism isn't dead in America and Wright along with all those who agree with him are keeping it alive. The black christians I know sure don't think like that.
It's interesting that we know so little about Obama. However, the statements that he and his wife make, along with his pastor, ARE shedding a lot of light on who he really is. This is a dangerous man.
Can you imagine if this situation had happened to John McCain. The left would have a fit and and fall in it.
What bothers me is the fact that Obama will not come on Greta's show or any other Fox show for that matter, and be interviewed. How can he handle the anti American leaders of the world if he can't handle the fair, but tough questions from Fox. The more I see of Obama , the more I distrust him.
Mr. Obama stuttered when he responded to Walter's question as I would if I gave the same response as he did...Mr. Obama is trying so hard to be diplomatic in the quest for the Presidency, but when he had to compare what his response was to Imus's one statement and 20+ years of black supremacy endoctrination by Rev. Wright's Church, he chose to fire his "Uncle" Wright now as his preacher but then added since Rev. Wright has retired it is no longer an issue...the reason we can not get past this DRAMA is because it has not been resolved and the only way to resolve it is for Mr. Obama to admit he has been a member of a black supremacy Church and supported it for 20+ years...why?...for black votes?...or he loved his Church and its members and his Rev. Wright and what the Church doctrice dictates...whatever his reason or excuse for this support can not lead to the CHANGE that he is portraying or the mending of racial divides that he is projecting...I think Hillary SHOULD stay in the race...as long as Obama's support for a black supremacy doctrine has not been owned by him how can people make an objective decision as to his Presidency...I am voting for McCann but I can see the frustration by the other side...we have to vote for the best leader for our Country not what that leader can do for me or you...(sounds like John Kennedy)
"Oh what tangled webs we weave when we choose to deceive". Obama is digging himself in deeper with every statement he makes. His "chickens are gonna come home to roost".
Grteta, if you can make jokes about Rush Limbaughs efforts to cause chaos during this election then you've lost all sense of what it means to be patriotic.
Lighten up Obama is running for president not Rev. Wright. And like the lady on your program said this may be news to you but there is nothing new about it in the African American community. Fox News doesn't want to hear the truth.
OAKLAND
This is exactly why I have never voted for a dem. They seem to always have controversy, always something to cover up to get out of trouble and if it means lying to get your vote, that's what they'll do. Running this country takes brains, honor, integrity, character and honesty...and one who will lead us into a hopeful and safe future for all Americans. It is so critical at this point that people wise up. Obama (nor Clinton) have any of the above qualities to get us there. For mine and my families future, I will Again be making the right choice and vote Republican.
Anyone with any real intelligence can see thru Obama. The damage he has done to racial relations has contributed to a major STEP backwards for all Americans. For a Uniter to join an overwhelmingly black church is very Telling for his Unification rubbish he is shoveling out thru all Media Channels. Aside from the fact he is a Junior Senator and has very little in the way of accomplishments we cannot take a chance on this man.
Imus was wrong and so was Rev. Wright. Imus was raked over the Black coals and so should Rev. Wright. Character does not have a Color ASSOCIATED WITH IT.. ...... And Obama is lacking in the character area which is a Major characteristic flaw that negates his ability to LEAD not Matter how well he can Speak. If he loses the nomination I am sure he will be courted by MSNBC or CNN or one of the other Liberal left Media channels....
THE RACISTS OF OLD HIDES BEHIND WHITE HOODS, THE NEW BREED OF RACISTS HIDES IN BLACK CHURCHES!!! All the black preachers say that America is only shocked because we have never heard this type of preaching before but it goes on every Sunday in black churches across America. Out the other side of their mouths they say that Rev. Wright's comments were just a few snipets from a life time of sermons!!!!! It sounds like black churches have become breeding grounds for hate mongers, racist, etc. THE RACISTS OF OLD HIDES BEHIND WHITE HOODS, THE NEW BREED OF RACISTS HIDES IN BLACK CHURCHES!!!!!!
Obama problem not complicated . He simply needs to make speech defining where his own philosophy begins and Rev . Wrights influence upon him ends.
That said. I am upset over # of Black clergy to defense of Rev. Wright. I believe this Black liberation theology is an abberation. Please ask the Mega-Black Ministries if they embrace it also. These are the ministries of Bishop T.D. Jakes, Bishop Eddie L. Long, and late Bishop G.E. Patterson. I've never heard this bad spirited, divisive liberation discourse in any of their TBN sermons!!!
I agree. Obama is Spinning. Especially when he was on the view. He seemed to be stumbling. He is a liar.
Obama is not fit to lead this country, he is a racist and a biggot, anyone that it would take 20 years to finely find out what his pastor stands for is not to smart and not smart enough to make decisions for this country. his wife act like shes lost in space.
I believe Obama to be an honest black/white man. Why does America call him a black man, isn't he also a white man? I have read some of the comments listed, is it no wonder we are in the fix we are, people saying they are not racist, when they are racist to the core. And NO Imus should not have been fired, he was an equal opportunity insulter. You should not comment on a person's thoughts unless you have followed that person and know his evilness.
Most people voting on Greta's poll are McCain supporters; therefore, the replies are biased and meaningless!
Also, Obama never said he would fire Imus; he said that was entirely up to the station, not him. So those who falsely accuse him of saying that are either LIARS, or they're simply not paying attention.
this one is for poster # 446:
so why did we attack iraq? because bush thought he was friends with osama...
are you telling me that if you are best friends with someone who is anti-america, and you spent 20 years with your best friend... and you admitted that all you know is because of this best friend who is an anti-american... you expect that if a bomb goes off this friend of yours is found accountable, we should not question you? you must be dreaming... wake up...
if obama has nothing to hide then tell us the truth... i want him to answer ONE SIMPLE QUESTION... how in the world did he miss these comments in 20 years? and if he actually missed all these comments then how can you expect us to believe that he will not miss a lot of threats coming this way? wait till something happens again and all obama will have to tell us that, " i never heard anything about this at all.... now lets move on from this... lets talk about how hillary is not telling the truth... lets talk about how everyone is messing up... "
get real... if obama has nothing to hide then he needs to grow some balls and come to a tv station that will ask him some real questions... he needs to come to Bill's show or H&C... i would like to see him answer some real questions rather than questions like, " hi mr. obama, how was your breakfast... so what rev. wright said was wrong and i'm sure you dont agree with it... am i correct? " OBAMA: YES!
His hypocritical actions speak louder than words and demonstrate he is not presidential material and ready to lead, let alone unite, this country.

I believe we DEMOCRATS should unite and vote REPUBLICAN
Doyle a vote for McCain is would be the same as voting for a Democrat. McCain is a RINO
#420 tired of you - WHAT????????? I just don't understand your comment. Rocks in her mouth?? Another person off the fahrakhan space ship. Their soaring in tonight aren't they. DUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is so slanted
I must tell you;
If any one thinks a church who says GD America, visits Muslim countries with Farrakhan, on and on- is an upscale church, you need to get out of Chicago now and then.
The world is a big place.
There is no room for rascist people any longer. If white people said any one thing racist in any church in America this Sunday, it would be broadcast on CNN, Fox, and plastered in the New York Times on Monday morning.
You can say whatever you want to excuse Obama's racist past but who will buy it, knowing of his last 20 years?
Grow up.
This event has caused the race volcano to explode and spew it's ugly lava--I also use the analogy of the Pied Piper of Hamlim with BO--who is beguiling us with his rhetoric and has a huge following. Look what happened to the children in the Pied Piper--beware!!
oop! got te name wrong. Tne Minister name is Rev. Wright
OBAMA SAYS WHAT HE NEEDS TO IN ORDER TO DEFUSE THE ATTACKS. WHY DOES HE REFRAIN FROM THE HARDBALL INTERVIEWS HE WOULD ENDURE ON FOX? IS IT BECAUSE HE CANNOT HIDE THERE? HE WILL ONLY GO WHERE HE WILL BE INTERVIEWED WITH KIDD GLOVES.
Obama didn't apologize for the hate speech of his pastor. He did not dismiss the views, all he did was make excuses for the hatred. Blaming white America for all the feeling and problems of black America. Blaming the declaration of independence for slavery, blaming the founding fathers for keeping black Americans in poverty, not giving them a fair chance to this day. Obama clearly expressed his feeling and his beliefs are very similar to the "former" pastor. Claiming he cant remove the man from his life? Removing a person with extreme views that clearly hates America shouldn't be hard, but doing so would of made him an "uncle Tom" to the extremists in the black community.
Obama is wobbling on the media pedistal he's been placed on and he is about to fall off of it!! Early in the beginning of this election he stole his change theme from John Edwards and his entire platform is a copy of Hillary's and Edwards. Not only is he being dishonest with America about Rev Wright, he is a political fake. Thank God Hillary is not listening to his scared supporters like Senator Leahy calling for her to go away. They already want to keep the Florida and Michigan delegates from being counted, now they want to disgard 10 other states still ready for our voice to be heard. I'm one NC voter who has supported Hillary both financially and actively and I looking forward to casting my vote. I don't respect any politician who does not want to allow all our voices to be heard, and personally I believe that those who encourage any less should find themselves a new party to try to control with their personal politics and get out of the democratic party.
shame on you crackers for trying to steal my babys presidency!!!!! we shall overcome.............
It is fortunate that white Americans are hearing what the black religous leaders are calling "truth telling" in black churches. I am stunned at the lies and racial comments. I don't think they are just snippets- Obama really latched on to that word- but rather a pervasive theme designed to perpetuate hatred and mistrust.His continued presence in that church for 20 years is proof enough for me that he accepts those beliefs.The fact that could have a chance to lead this country is frightening.
Obama is not WHO he says he is. The truth is that he is a liar and I do not trust him. He has little integrity or honesty. He spins his answers depending on the moment. How many different answers has he given on whether he heard the disgusting statements of Wright. (I never heard, then I heard some, and now if I HAD heard any I'd have left the church). BUT because the Rev. is now retired, he absolves himself of his act of omission. What a weak response! BO hasn't handled this issue truthfully AND Wright hasn't apologized for his comments.Wright can't even be located to put a comment on the record. ACTIONS always speak louder than WORDS! Obama's worse than most politicians because he believes he is better and above the rest. He says he is different. For change. This country doesn't need HIS kind of CHANGE. We deserve better!
Someone said that she can't vote for a liar (Obama), so what about all the lies that Sen. Clinton and her husband has told. BTW show me a politician that hasn't lied! Why can't we be fair and debate the real issues that affect us all?
Who's watching Greta's show if everyone's writing on her blog? LOL!
: )
Greta- We have friends who listen to Rush- we think Rush is very divisive, racist, and loose with facts. As much as we find Rush repulsive...we maintain our friendships.
We do find some common ground.
As moderate Republicans..Fox is beginning to turn us off with their narrow views. It is disappointing.
He is lying he hired Rev Wright for his campain that is why he retired to be a part of Oboma's campain He is a polished con artist
I hope that the double standards of Sen. Obama will be a great eye opener to many people,especialy to those who are so gullible to believe his excelently prepared and delivered speaches. We need to remember that a whole nation of Germany was decieved by once great speaker Hitler. And look what he became. We need to look beyond words: What is the man really made of? What are his moral values, his caracter. And Obama does not look good. By being part of the hate mongering church, it shows that he is not who he wants to portray himself to be. This is the bottom line. I am so glad the truth has come out.
The problem is Mr. Obama doesn't know if he's Black or White. Although he uses those two races when it's most "convenient" for himself and for his race in the candidacy. We've heard his flip flopping too much and it's embarassing on his behalf. And Mr. Obama is NOT a christian. I repeat, he is NOT a Christian. Americans need to know this so this way when they do finally vote they know who they are voting for. Again, Mr. Obama likes to maneuever his way around the hard topics when asked. He's just not someone I trust....period!
A Man who is not a true American may prevail!!!!!!! Scary!
When are American's, black and white going to wake up. How long will we continue to let politician's fool us.
When you tell the truth, you don't need to try to remember because there is only one same version every time. Obama shifted his eyes, lowered his eyecast, and stuttered as though he was trying to remember what he should say. It is appalling to me that many people in this country would want this dishonest man to be the next president of our great nation.
The media is a bunch of bull. People, lets focus on what's most important the real issues about this country and find the right man or woman for the job.
This country needs healing and the media is like a scab that continues.... to fall off everytime something touches it....... Stop holding on the old news to keep you rating up.
What are you people afraid of?
#439 Vickie - WE HEARD WHAT OBAMA SAID ON THE VIEW!!!! Get a grip! Another Fahrakhan spaceship possibility.
IF THIS MAN BECOMES THE PRESIDENT, THE BLACKS WILL BE GETTING THERE [UNFAIR] 40 ACRES AND A MULE. EVEN THOUGH WE ARE NOT THE FOLKS ALIVE THAT IT WAS MENT FOR. HE IS OUT TO GET EVEN WITH THE WHITE RACE. THESE BLACK FOLKS NEED TO FORGET THE PAST THAT NOT ONE OF US LIVED IN . I WAS NEVER A RACIST, MY CHURCH TEACHES US TO LOVE EVERYONE LOVE THY NEIGHBOR AS THYSELF.
Just keep Obama talking and he will continue to reveal his true self until nobody will have any reason to doubt he already told them from the day he "disinvited" his pastor/mentor from attending his press conference to announce his entrance into the race for Presidential candidate 2008.
Obama is so smooth that truth glides off his lips like a bitter pill and people still swallow it. In previous interviews, Obama touted Wright as his "mentor." Now he tells the ladies of "The View," that is not the case. Recently, Obama told another interviewer he had not spoken with Wright since his controversial sermons surfaced. However, he has just told "the View" audience that he spoke with Wright and Wright had expressed regret for offending people. And Obama said he thought Wright was saddened by it. In effect, Obama told viewers that Wright had practically apologized. But, when? How? Who else heard Wright's apology? Not the press, because that would have been broadcast all over the nation. Have you heard it? I know I haven't! Obama is good, but he's not THAT good! We know Obama is lying because: (1) he is a lawyer, (2) he is a democrat, and (3) his lips are moving.
Sounds rough, but if Obama's tough enough to be President of the U.S., then he should be able to take it instead of continuing to whine and point fingers at everybody else but himself. Yes. I am a Godly Preacher but I hate a liar -- especially one who is trying to lead this nation or anybody else but refuse to hold himself out to be held accountable.

WOW!!! I think the country is in trouble. I never realized until now how much racism there is in this country within the black community. Maybe its a good thing that this issue comes to the table for all americans to addresss. I know racism exists also in the white community, but it can't hold a candle to Rev. Wright's hate for whitty and god dam America. Lets ask Rev Jessie and Rev Al what they think> Thats sorta funny to all three are men of GOD.
Barack HUSSIAN, man he can sure lie. First he told the country he didnt know Wright said all those bad things, Then he said yes I did know but he can't disown him.Then today on the veiw he would have left if Wright hadnt quit. I think he is twenty years to late.He is the worst candidate we could possibly have. God help us if he gets it.
I cannot help myself. Juan I look at you and you are not able to open your eyes when you speak,,,tht is evidence that you are not sincere....How much are they paying you at Fox. Have you ever talked to any of the people you hve an opinion about.
Fox News believe that Millions of Americans are fooled by Barak Obama, they are following him blidly....Give us some credit, what fox news want they will not get. We, most Black people have given white people the benefit of the doubt with all the awfull things that they do to us, our veterans, our children in school, I do not see you spending any time on Walter Reid etc. Send Juan to Iraq like my 18 year old WestPoint graduate to learn how to see feel and think for himself. "No child left behind does not work", Fox send Hannity to fix it, The Prisons are unfair, send Bill to fix it, teachers are being let down everyday, where is fox news where it matters. Rev. Wright is one man with some thinking based on his experiences, like most of us. Let it alone. Mrs Clinton, Bill is excused when she told a "BOLD FACE" lie. I believe that white people still believe that blacks are not able to run anything and or they cannot stand to see that even under opression Some of Them jumped over the hurdles that are set especially from black men. Black people who attend church know tht we do not leave our church.... WE PUT THE PREACHER OUT..We sometimes attend the same church that our great, great, grandparents attend. My daughter will be married in a church onloy becuse her Grandmother who is dead attended that church for 47 years....and Rev Williams is no saint.LEAVE THE SENATORS ALONE, let them debate the issues and may the best one win. Fox this is where you can be most helpful.
I think these so called preachers that preach this white hate and American hate are the true cause of the lack of progress of so many blacks in this country.
What a doubletalker and no integrity! How did he get to be a Presidential Candidate. "If you don't stand for something, you will fall for anything" and a vote for O would do just that. No way will I vote for him.
GRETA - Why has no one called all the Rev. Wrong defenders on their GROSSLY EXAGGERATED statements that people have only heard the unfair excerpt compilations comprising 3 or 4 seconds worth of snippets of the sermons. They feel his remarks have been totally taken out of "context". Maybe THEY have either been leaving the room when the sermon excerpts are shown or are changing the channel because FOXNEWS and others have played some very lengthy segments of the sermons. There are plenty of words leading up to the egregious comments so that the context is obvious... as is the conclusion most should realize - Rev. Wrong seems to hate whites and seems to enjoy trashing the U.S.
I bet you could find MANY examples in the news archives of controversial statements, made by both liberals and conservatives, that made many rounds among the media outlets and very few even come CLOSE to the amount of air time -- and I'm not talking about frequency, I'm talking about the length of the sermon outtakes -- that the hateful reverend has had... plenty enough for "context".
One last thing I don't believe anyone has mentioned on the air yet. What about the young impressional children in the congregation listening to this hateful drivel? Some will take it as the truth and the hate cycle will just continue. If the reverend and Obama get heat from this vitriol that's one thing, but the negative impact to his young captive audience is especially sad.
It seems to me that Obama is good at speaking when he is just spitting out words from paper. When people actually ask him hard questions he stumbles over himself and tries hard to find the right words but ends up sounding like an idiot. In other words he seems to crack under pressure when the heat was on. Not what I want in a president and leader.
Regarding the association of Obama and the Rev. Wright. Some say it is not fair to assume "guilt by association" but how about the two old adages, "birds of a feather flock together" and " A man is known by the company he keeps"? I rather doubt if Obama really believes this stuff because he s too smart, but has stayed in the church for political expediency.
#445 Robert - Have you heard nothing on the news or read ANYTHING ON OBAMA or is your head inside a sand pit?
RE: By: Scott | Mar 28, 22:14 Are many whites hypocritical for saying MLK was a great man when he also said bad things about america during vietnam? Gretas racist and so are the people that watch her show. Im done.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
what are you smoking? you are racist and dumb for saying such and ignorant thing... BTW... you were watching her show to... that is how you found out about this website... so are you a racist too?
The first red flag I noticed about OBAMA was his black wife's comment about not being proud of America her whole life until her adulthood, seeing OBAMA doing so well. Wonder how he would be doing if he gave more credence to his "white" side -- the mother and grandparents that raised him. I doubt at this point he can distance himself from all this negative "blackness."
I noticed that Obama was stuttering and looking down on The View today. Imus may have been wrong to say what he did, but he's not runnng for President of the United States. Would somebody please ask Obama why he won't cross his heart and say the Pledge of Alliegence to the Flag? All others on stage did (assuming they are patriots). Obama just let his hands fall by his sides and looked like an idiot. If he loved our country, he would act like a patriot. He's a liar in every way. I believe Rev Wright is hanging low, as well he should, for fear that someone may try to kill him. I was raised in the Deep South as a racist, but have worked all over our wonderful U.S. and truly respect the black people for their sufferage (probably from my ancesters), and learned through the years that "Black is Beautiful" and never paid any attention to my coleagues race. I am caucasian, but it wasn't easy being raised as "poor" white trash. We weren't trash, just poor, and we worked our way up and out of that domain to become extremely successful white folks.
In my opinion, it wouldn't matter what race Rev Wright is, he's still a racist and doesn't belong in a position to preach the word of "GOD" to anyone. He'll be judged by his maker eventually, and so will Obama. I feel sorry for Obama's children.
I'm sick of the Rev. wright Hoopla, get on with some real news. Obama is the best Canidiate to represent America in decades. The media feels as if there so much more to a sound bit and quotes. And they're right an entire sermon, and full quotes from. Initially, they were focus on Obama being Muslin, now its his Pastor is too black. Did the media forget Obama was elected as an Illionis Senator. Hello, this State is just a small mecca of America, with many cultures. Obama is a home grown American.

to: lllllllllllllll 557 --------------------------- I am possitive that even you would agree that Obama is a lying racist anti American pig. Also, anyone who likes Obama now that everyone has seen the undeniable proof that Obama is a lying racist anti American pig, is also a lying racist anti American pig.
I loved watching and listening to you for a very long time, but have really been disappointed in your persistent, almost viscious attitude in beating Barack Obama to death regarding his having been a member of Rev. Wright's church. You are declaring him guilty by association and seem to have lost your sense of being fair and openminded, which I felt were more typical of you in the past. Please replay some of your recent shows, and see if you really like yourself........I don't like what you have become !
Obama is a Bigit, and a hyporcit. If any Republican did this the media would have nailed him to the cross. I would not want a President like this and I coulf never respect a President like ths.
So many people claim Mr. Wright's remarks are taken out of context. Would somebody please put them into the proper context for us? What is the proper context for "G_d D_mn America"? It isn't a prophetic utterance. He didn't say, "Thus saith the Lord....." Those are Mr. Wright's words, spoken on his own authority and exposing his own personal bias.
Words really do mean something. Either his words need to be put into the "proper context", or they need to be denounced for what they are; the outrageous words of an angry bigot.
What does Obama believe? Why do people choose which paticular Church they attend? There are a lot of different Religions and a person goes to the Church that teaches the same beliefs and thoughts that are aligned with what the person attending the Church believes and thinks. So if Obama attended this Church for more than 20 years, there is no doubt to me that he shares the same thoughts and beliefs as Rev. Wright, and that is not good.
I wonder what it would look like if you played a video clip of a terrorist tape being used to train terrorist, saying mean and terrible things about America, and then showed the Rev. Wright tape. Would there be any differance between the tapes, or would they both be relaying the same message.
And, what if a white candidate was a member of the KKK, and had been for over 20 years, and then got exposed..... Do you think the excuse of the white candidate saying "been a member for over 20 years, but had no idea of what was being taught at the meetings", and "did not share their thoughts and beliefs, just attended meeting for 20 years". Yea, sure. I hope nobody thinks that the American people are that stupid.
Hypocritical doesn't even begin to describe Obama. I think this is only the beginning of what will be uncovered about him. Truthfully, I can't wait to hear what tomorrow brings as the Democrats try to wriggle out of this mess.
As for Mr. Jeremiah Wright, how can anyone refer to him as "the Reverend Wright?" He is neither a man of God nor a man to be revered. The best that can be said of him is that he is a racist hate-mongerer who preys on the weaknesses of his ignorant congregants. Shame on him and shame on the Obamas and other educated members of Trinity Church for supporting this despicable preacher. He spews forth sludge and I have absolutely no respect for the Obamas for listening to him for 20 years. God help us if Barack is elected!
To #278: Thank you for your comment! I was really getting worried about what was taught in the black churches. I was beginning to look at my black friends differently, wondering if they were truly my friends. I guess it goes back to the old saying: Don't judge the whole barrel by a couple of bad apples.
Thank You Fox News , you guys sure are opening AMERICAN EYES. America sure needs to know who they are VOTING FOR and not putting a person that is against OUR GREAT COUNTRY
I am just sick of this OBAMA. He is full of nonsense. I just don't understand how can a guy with 3 years senate service can be a president. We don't know his public face; we don't know his leadership; we don't know what he represents. I have listened all his speeches all these days, just to see if he delivers any real stuff. None so far; and after this Jeremaih episode, I am fully convinced, if he becomes president, it will be struggle for millions of us. Is there anyone waiting for his inspirational speech here? He really think he can fool people with his empty speeches? Uuummm!

To Corrine: Belive me all Black Churches DO NOT teach this rhetoric. I don't think those preachers are fully reading their bibles. Racism does exist. It is discussed at some times but not to the degree where it is spewing hatred. The teachings I've heard is that we need to pray for our country and those in power. Jesus teaches us to love one another. Love not curse. But don't judge us all based on what a few are saying. It would be the same as if we judge all caucasions as being racists because of history. Who ever says that Black preachers across the country are preaching the same way are flat out lying.
I am not an Obama fan. I do think the wool is being pulled over a lot of people's eyes. You couldn't beat me to vote for Obama. He has that Jim Jones effect. We all know what happened there.
IF THIS COUNTRY DOESN'T WAKE UP AND FIGURE THIS MAN OUT, WE ARE HEADING FOR SEVERE TROUBLE IN OUR COUNTRY. WE ARE READY FOR A BLACK MAN AS PRESIDENT, BUT NOT THIS ONE. HE TWISTED AND SQUIRMED AND MADE NO SENSE WITH THIS ANSWER.
I keep hearing about the Black church and how whites don't understand the "black" Church.....If whites called their chuches the white church ,we would be called racist and it would be politically incorrect to call the church the "white" church....
Roxsy #446. The reason why they dont question Chaney on his "so" response is simple. This administration make choices based on what they think is the best response based on the intel given them. Only the Clinton administration ran his administration made his choices by what the polls told him. This is a seriously dangerous way to govern since the average American has no idea what is really going on in the world. All you know is what lies the press feed you and what they want you to think.

iIf the USA was ready for a black tp be president,( and I, an older white woman from the south thought perhaps we were thought Obama wasn't my candidate) Obama and Rev. Wright have taken care of that for a decade or two by revealing the paranoid racism that exist in the black race It disappointing but not surprising. It is tragic for the black race, because it is like a suicidal self fulfilling prophecy. The whites were for them, beyond the old predjudices; but, they were unable to hear or accept it. The Rev. Wright ended it.
Obamas"Change" rhetoric was all about race.
Obama runs on bringing the races together but yet he let his pastor pull them futher apart for 20 years there was young people in that church that he was teaching hate to every sunday I don't see how he can run on bringing people together
I voted for it being hypocritical because there really is no other explanation for Obama's statements. However, what I'd like to know is why every comment I have come across for the opposition feels the need to attack Fox News or Greta herself rather than actually discussing the topic at hand. I will grant you that I have not read every comment and I am sure there are those with opposing views that stuck to the real issue. But I find it terribly disappointing when skimming along for comments that disagree with my own view that all I can find are those making personal attacks on Greta for doing her job.
I am sick of the DNC party leaders shoving this progressive anti-American candidat down our throats and I am a Democrat! Maybe should say used to be a Democrat.
Obama is racist and lair just like his dear Rev. Wright, keep digging up the dirt on them I'm sure there's a whole lot more to come.... go Gretta and keep up the good work
MLK would be ashamed.
Greta, Hannity and all the fox news guyz... you are making your show so boring with things that don't matter... You are the ones letting this country down by polluting the ears of the american people with evil... Step back and be positive for a moment. I just wonder , it looks like your minds are filled with filth, also You are all Racists... CNN is not big on the same issue all day while you guyz who are as Hypocrits as your question keeps trying to feed the americans with lies... Just like you label Obama...thats the same way you guys are... I'm tied and sick of waking up at 6am to watch fox news and there is nothing gold and new... its all Pastor Wright.. guyz wake up lets move on... You are letting this country down... Just remember that the American dollar is so week that even Canadian dollar has taken over...and gas prices are so high etc and you guyz are only concerned with things Obama didn't say... Thats his pastor...just like your brothers and sisters are prostitutes, thieves , somewhere... Be blessed for spreading hate!!!!
Some things must be said, even though some may not want to hear it. Facts are facts. Please Do not use Sen. Obama as a scapegoat. Barack never wanted to run on the race card, white people brough it up. Barack is just as white as he is black, but in the US he is legally a black man. Until you all come to terms with your consciences and your guilt, race will always be an issue in the US. We must move past these issues. I can't believe the sheer ignorance and hate spilling out here.
White America must learn to face their shame and the terrible history of their evil treatment of Blacks and apologize and atone for the sin of slavery and Jim Crow. Until you do, serious issues will exist.
Quote from Condolezza Rice. "But what I would like understood as a black American is that black Americans loved and had faith in this country even when this country didn't love and have faith in them, and that's our legacy."
Rice said her own father, grandmother and great-grandmother had endured "terrible humiliations" growing up in the segregated south and yet they still loved America." Would you say Rice is a racist?
There is a great need for healing and reconciliation. Read your history of the treatment of innocent black children men & women and weep. Imagine, the holocaust lasted 12 years compared to slavery and Jim Crow which lasted several hundred years. That is the Holocaust 100 times over and is not an easy legacy.
Up to today, some Jews cannot bear to hear German being spoken. It's traumatic for them. Yet Black people continue to live in peace and harmony with whites who used to kill, lynch, rape and treat them lke nothing! You just can't understand! Yes we need to accept and heal and really be the United States of America.
Wrights retirement was a retirement of convienence.
After the election he will be right back preaching.
I believe that, thanks largely to the ACLU and some Democratic administrations, this country has been on a downward spiral. Senator and Mrs Obama would be the final nail in our coffin. Pastor Wright aside, this candidate wants to raise taxes, further open our borders, abandon Iraq, nationalize health care, and God knows what else. Unfortunately, there are lots of voters out there who will take their shovels to the ballot booths with them to help dig this grave for America.
The MEDIA should be shot.
Obama is an apologetic, making excuses without accepting responsibility. Simple, he's not a leader, just a yapper.
ONE THING LOOK INTO OBMAS EYES (BEWARE)
No one can change what is met to be. He has more supporters than haters and most of you here were not going to vote for him any way. So your opinon means nothing to his supporters. Racist network.
OBAMA 08
Does the media have another topic to discuss? Every day and every night on FOX NEWS the SUBJECT is Sen. Obama and his former pastor. Obama have the right to choose his church. It's obvious the media are not ready for a black president but, who cares. Ready or not Sen. Obama is coming to be the next president of the US. HURRAY!!!!
It is simple. BOH is a man of no character. Liar to the bone! He doesn't even have the character to stand up for what he "really" believe in.
*****WOW! This is scary. Can you imagine if Obama wins, what his cabinet will look like. Instead of these preacher preaching on forgivenes and loving your neighbor, they are preaching hate. If there hearts don't change they will never be able to live the way God intended them to live. For only God can change the heart of a man...and if they are teaching hate towards our fellow countrymen, we will always be divided. (I thought preacher weren't allowed to talk about political figures at the podium.)
Obama claims as a President, he wants to reach out to the other side and bring us together as a nation. How ironic. How much reaching out did he do as a Senator?
I don't trust him.
I am shocked that so many american people have gone ga-ga over him because of the way he presents himself and not really know anything about him...who he really is. Are we as Americans so blind.
Wake up America!
The liberals in Congress did a good job in destroying Bush. They figured that since he won the 2004 election because of the Iraq War, they would destroy him with it. Attack all his policies. The policies that have protect us.
Our economy spiral after 9/11; but President Bush with the help of tax cuts helped** our economy. It stayed strong up till the end of July 2007. How ironic that after the Democrats took control that our economy went south.
I believe our country should get rid of the two-party system, does not work. Too much bickering, and they never seem to get anything done.(They are too loyal to their party.) Should be elected on what they stand for.******
PLEASE PRAY AND ASK GOD TO PLACE IN YOUR HEART WHO TO VOTE FOR...THANK YOU...AND GOD BLESS.
If anybody thinks for one moment that Obama is an honorable man then you have my sympathy. Obama is a liar and the percentage of black votes he has received is a clear indication blacks will support him regardless of truth or ethics. But the bigger issue is the severity of the hate preachers like Rev. Wright preach to their members each Sunday. And based on the support Rev. Wright has received from the black population proves white people better beware. Did any of you notice how excited his members were when he made those hate America and racial comments. If so, then it should concern you. I understand why blacks are making excuses for Obama because blacks want him in the white house at any cost. So, beware all democrats this is no time to vote down party lines. If Obama wins, everybody looses.
For many years I have been one of the few Black Republicans and have been criticizes a lot for being a Black Republican. I voted Republican because of my Christian believe. But, after seeing all the hypocrites on the conservative side like Rush Limbaugh, Hannity and others, who call themselves Christian (I found it’s been so unchristian like). I am changed my votes to Obama. At least you know what you are getting when you vote for a democrat. Maybe this why Jesus surrounded him self with the common people because they that are whole don’t need a savior.
How disappointing this issue regarding Obama, a man seeking election to our Country's highest office, has become. Obama has revealed that he condones and has been a supporter of of a person who spews the epitome of hatred and negativity that multitudes have worked so very hard to overcome and move beyond. How can Wright's behavior be tolerated, much less be embraced as a mentor and personal pastor for 20 YEARS? Wright's shouting, ranting, irreverant drama and flipant sing-song delivery of one negative comment after another does nothing more than incite discontent. He comes across, not as a humble man preaching the word of God, but an "entertainer" working a crowd. Nothing good can come from that kind of mindset . . . . .and nothing HAS! How VERY disappointing!
michael; the statements above are so accurate to the nature of phony atitudes and motions to the great american vote and unfortunately the black voters are so fixated with color that they are blind to the american benefit with truth and ability. the experience of obama is centered around community involvements and nowhere near honest capability for presidental professionalism. His is a bigot, his wife is a bigot. the old adage, tell me who your friends are and I'll tell you who you are. blacks have received all the compassion and consideration to be equal as americans,BUT, prefer to creat the distance by just trying to enforce the identity of such as afican americans- aren't we all americans!
'White people' of this country are so hypocritical, even when faced largely with "TRUTH" of the atrocities 'Whites' have done to "African Americans" for YEARRRRS. Also, it is quite unfortunate white people are SO EASILY SWAYED!!!!!
Additionally, I find it hypocritical of Senator Clinton to criticize and bash Senator Obama's message of "Hope". As it would appear Senator Clinton's campaign is running on quite a bit of.
#439 Vickie,
Your e-mail is rich. There is absolutly no need to twist any words, Mr. Obama is doing a good job of it all by himself. We are not scared of a President with black skin we are very very afraid of a black man who is running for President who surrounds himself with a supposed Man of God, refers to him as his spiritual leader , his mentor who is absolutly a racist. Its hardly ever said out loud for fear of certain retribution from a man like Rev. Wright but you dont have to have white skin to be a racist.
Greta
I am surprised that you are so dishonest in the design and tone of this misleading, unfair question concerning Sen.Obama and his relation with this pastor. You are appealing to the racist, and beginning to show your own misguided, disgusting, and relentless dogging of Sen. Obama. I use to have such respect for you. Now it seems that Juan is fast becoming a flunky for the racist attitudes of Fox. (I guess he needs the job on that channel ).
Imus called those black women Nappy Headed Hoes! Rev. Wright did not use derogatory names to any race he was calling out America for what is has done to Black people in the past and the injustice they received from the government. He was reacting to and action . Imus has no reason to be making those kinds of remarks to any black people.
He needed and used that church to initially get elected in Chicago to the state senate so this is why I think it is so hard for him to leave or disown this pastors friendship cause he owes mr. wright and the church for where he is today, thats why he's trying to make all these analogy's and spin the whole thing,, the more he spins the worse he looks... just disown the person

_________________________________________________________________
dang debra... you have posted the same thing so many times... good point tho. ...
anyway... i think someone needs to talk some sense into CNN
Since I'm a social conservative I haven't ever considered voting for Obama but for a long time I had positive feelings toward him. He seemed decent and almost gentle. I even thought he might actually have some humility. Now I have huge doubts and reservations about his integrity and I think we have no idea what his real attitudes are toward whites. I don't know if he's a racist but he feels like one now.
Obama has always been a double talker. From the very beginning he has copied other peoples words. I even hear on other blogs that he has taken other peoples work in the Senate and claimed it as his own after others had did all the work. On every interview he has done he keeps changing his answers about his pastor to put himself in a better light. First he says he never heard his pastor say anything conyroversal while he was sitting in the pew and that the good Rev. was his mentor then ehwn he was giving the race speech he stated that yes he had heard his pastor say controversal things while sitting inthat pew. And today on the view he said that the good rev. was not his mentor. He still thinks the rev. should not be called a racist for the hatefull things he said. He also said his pastor was sorry for the things he said. I say he is sorry it is hurting Obamas campaign. Question how can a man who put down rich white and black people(Collin Powell, Candilica Rice,and Oprah during one of his speeches) build himself a 1.6 million dollar house. No one can question how he can afford such a lifestyle because since it has to do with his church he is protected from answering any federal quetions. What about giving some of that money he is living on to the poor in his community?
Since I'm a social conservative I haven't ever considered voting for Obama but for a long time I had positive feelings toward him. He seemed decent and almost gentle. I even thought he might actually have some humility. Now I have huge doubts and reservations about his integrity and I think we have no idea what his real attitudes are toward whites. I don't know if he's a racist but he feels like one now.
#526, truly get over this minority racist stuff, that chip thats on your shoulder. Don't you know thats what's keeping you in your 'box'. I'm what racist call a minority, I'm hispanic, but my family learned to get out of that 'box' and the only one that can do that is YOU, YOURSELF, and no one can take that away from you if you educate yourself, work hard for the American dream. As my family found out, and I can see that Wright guy has, is hate, disgust for those of his race that have made the American dream come true for them. Rather than applaud them and use them as role models for young people, he turns against them and rants and rages to his people to do the same! Is that what black america really like?? if so, you're your worst enemy. Not white America.
He is a liar and that is not the only one he is telling.
#546 Yancy - Slanted???????? Its just a question yancy. You don't have to vote or say anything. Go watch kiddie toons. These are OUR opinions. WE DON'T LIKE OBAMA. Do you get it now?
Sure Obama is a liar, CLinton's a liar as well dodgin bullets. To be honest they're both losers and i cringe at the thought of either one of them becoming president.
These are NOT Obama's words, and he has rejected; in fact, he rejected and denounced them on numerous occasions. What MORE do you WANT from Mr. Sen. Obama? BLOOD? What about the words of Pat Robertson and Farewell? They said America DESERVED 9/11 because of our sins, and acceptance of gays. Where's the OUTRAGE? Bush supports them. Once again, the double standard from R-W hypocrites!
shame on obama and his rev.
Can't we all just get along? There is so much hatred in the comments that I have read. And I know a lot of the people making the comments think they are not racist or at least until now. But this is what Obama was talking about when he said we need to start having conversations about race. But if we feel we have nothing to talk about then we just don't want to face the truth. I am a black women and yes sometimes I think about history and how blacks were treated. But I try everyday to put that behind me and treat everyone with dignity and respect. Although the ugly head of racism do sometimes rear it's head and I feel I would justified if I react but usually I don't. I really feel some people think racism does not exist but it does. And coming here and making racial statements does not help. I think a lot of the people making these comments do not consider themselves racist either. But think about it you are not better than Wright when you get on here and make such negative and show such hatred about the opposite race. SO RACISM DOES STILL EXIST IN AMERICA! WAKE UP PEOPLE!
Maybe Obama was high during the sermons...............so maybe he didn't hear what Pastor Wright had to say. The Republicans are having FUN with this! As a Floridian-I voted and want it to count..SEAT THE DELEGATES
608 - Jabi............... CNN will never cover anything that is true. All CNN does is make excuses for liberals while passing along false and made up news to make liberals look good even though the vast vast majority of liberals are brain dead liars and morons.
This is truly amusing seeing how people really feel. It's funny that McCain can't remember who the real enemy is, oh I'm sorry he had a senior moment. It's is amazing how Clinton lies about the role she played across seas, not to mention her affiliations with NAFTA as first lady. Both instances received minor coverage. In both cases passes are given. But Obama's preacher not Obama but his preacher preaches and you shell out millions of dollars in coverage. How many of you go to church or the synogogue? How many of you actually follow exactly what the preacher preaches or the rabbi teaches? Though shall not lie, steal, kill, adultery, covet etc. How many of you actually apply everything to your life that your spiritual leader teaches? Be honest! So if you don't do the good that is taught in churches and synogogues why is it easy to believe someone does the bad. So now you have a snippet of a sermon which was in many ways similar to the U.S Ambassador Edward Peck who is white (which the media fail to mention) speech after 911 and in many ways a deplorable speech; figure that this is how Obama think, feel, and exist? Your stinking thinking is hyporcritical and it needs to be checked. I would truly reconsider if I were you how you speak of the church no matter what condition you think it might run under and allow God to handle his own business. If you are true christian you should be praying for direction as far as you are concerned and America is concerned. Once you pray don't listen for your own answers if you know God listen for His answer. Stop judging! Judge yourselves! He will use the smallest thing to confound the wise. LOL! Blessings!
#570 At Least Juan doesn't base his opinion on his SKIN COLOR!
GRETA, WHY ARE WHITE PEOPLE SO SURPRISED TO HEAR THAT AFRICAN AMERICANS ARE ANGRY. AND THAT THEY TAKE THEIR ANGER TO CHURCH SO THEY CAN BE ACKNOWLEDGED AND CONFORTED. THINK OF BLACK CHURCHES AS INDIAN RESERVATIONS FOR AFRICAN AMERICANS.
OAKLAND
I don't put much validity in what Obama says several weeks after the fact! Why did he hesitate for weeks after Rev. Wright made his terribly harsh, critical remarks about our Country. They compared Wright with Dr. King -- I don't think so. Dr. King that I knew never uttered such hurtful words against America.
"Hillary Clinton"=<>"Same "Bill-Sheet" as her husband !
"Barack Obama"<=>"A race card-reversalist" !
"JOHN McCAIN<=>A TRUE AMERICAN PATRIOT !!!
>GUESS WHERE "MY VOTE" GOES >>>???!!!
The good thing about this whole situation is to show to the world how racist, but most importantly, ignorant white America is when it comes to their knowledge of Black America. I have not heard one commentator explain why, as members of Catholic churches, they remain members and practice that faith with full knowledge that this religion harbors, hides and promotes pedophilia perpetrated on, majorily, young, white boys by priests. Not a one has denounced their religion or severed ties with that Church. You give Hagee, Roberts, Falwell and other white, minister- hate mongers respect and appear to agree with their virulent, anti-semantic and race based diatribes, without any signs of disagreement. Greta, as an indicator or your racist position, whenever a White female is missing or murdered, the fact of their condition becomes and remains the topic of your show for the duration until they are found or another one takes her place. Ask yourself, how many times have you or any other show profileld a missing female person of color. This happens because you don't consider one of us missing to be effective enough or important enough to bring in viewers, which speaks to the. Consequently, we are ignored and treated as non-beings. That is the gist of Rev. Wright's sermons. That America is racist. Has been, is, and from the nature of your viewers respondence, will continue (to be). You and your audience will deny quickly and vehemently that your are racist. you/they will even report that they have a friend who is of a different race/nationality to support your positions.
Rest assured, it does not and will not work. Obama hit a nerve when he finally addressed the issue of race as a result of Hannity's vehemence against persons of a different ethnicity, color or creed. You pratice this racism without any shame or concern for the other person. when it is brought to the forefront of society' consciousness, you become indignant and defensive.
What all of you need to do is to check yourselves!! The news media has played the "racist card" since the beginning of this campaign, and continues to be a driving force in this electorial process. You did the same thing in 2000 and 2004. Because you did not want the democrats to win during those processes, we have lost over 4000 lives in an unnecessary and unrelenting war.
Stop being racist, and help America heal instead of being a stumbling block in the path of progress!!

that OR he never went to the church coz he's not a christian at all... maybe he's not telling us the truth about his religion... i wouldnt be surprised at all....
In all fairness... we (us) cannot "assume" that we KNOW what anyone (Obama) is thinking or feeling in mind and heart. What is that old saying?.... ASSUME "makes an ass of me." I have to take the neutral vote! (and so would Greta!)
I just know Obama is going to win !!!!!!!!! Yes we CAN!!!!!!
Wow, I can clearly see I am the only African American leaving a response to this message. It is clear how uncompassionate, selfish, and plane ignorant your respondents messages are.
I attend a Baptist Church. The mannerisims of a black pastor go back in history. We can not change our lifes experiences; in fact, we have only been free just over 50 years. Fifty years. Have your ancestors been chased, hung, burned, ect...? Have your parents told you of riding in the back of the bus, drink in separate fountains, or even looked at as if your sh..?
Reverend Wright is an older man coming from an older time. I do not agree with his remarks. They were offensive and were for the people of his church, those that were in attendance. Imus is an older man coming fro an older time. His remarks were also offensive. The difference is he did it over the air ways for all to hear and Reverend Wright's comments are being heard by America based on Sen. Obama's attendance.
Is this all America can come up with to bring down a man trying to bring CHANGE to a county that is in direr need of it? Please, don't be afraid of a positive man; after all, look what President Bush is and has done to this country.
Obama the "patriot":
would not wear a U.S. flag lapel pin;
would not pledge allegiance to our flag;
has a wife who has never been proud of our country;
has a spiritual advisor who advises God to damn America.
What is patriotic about any of this?

635.By: lllllllllllllll | Mar 28, 23:02 ----------------------- WHAT MORE DO I WANT? ----- I want him to stop continuing to lie and stop his lying excuses and go away.
I'm also so tired of the "I'm BLACK, SO THE WORLD OWES ME' attitude". Its gettting so old. Black people are the ones who are racist these days. Obama
is dangerous and is clearly lying about his faith. He is a Muslim and a racist and
has no allegience to the USA, neither does his wife or spiritual advisor.
I havent heard this much about racism in this country for many many years.
He is seriously dividing this country without even being President. His true colors are showing. America wake up - he absolutely is a wolf in sheep's clothing.
I hope that the double standards of Sen. Obama will be a great eye opener to many people,especialy to those who are so gullible to believe his excelently prepared and delivered speaches. We need to remember that a whole nation of Germany was decieved by once great speaker Hitler. And look what he became. We need to look beyond words: What is the man really made of? What are his moral values, his caracter. And Obama does not look good. By being part of the hate mongering church, it shows that he is not who he wants to portray himself to be. This is the bottom line. I am so glad the truth has come out.
I'm not going to apologize for slavery. I had no part in it. I agree that it was all an immoral event that is a stain. It's a stain on mankind because since the earliest recorded history, man has enslaved man. I suggest that if you want to pursue this with "white America" that you also take your case to Africa, and accuse all of African society for capturing natives of that continent and selling them to slavers along the coast of Africa. Perhaps the elitist Pastor Wright would like to condemn black Africa as much as he condemns all of "white America." Oh, maybe in that multi-million dollar home he can't find a phone. Silence is golden when it comes to that racist and hypocrite. Apologize? You got to be kidding.
Wow! How hypocritical can you get? One other thing, one thing Pastor Wright is missing, is that side that Obama says we never get to see. AND, not once, mind you, have I heard anyone defending Wright, ever said anything about the ONE TRUE CHURCH and that is God's Church...the body of believers! Yes, slavery was wrong. However, I can understand the anger over it, but anger will do one of two things to you....it will either eat you up and spit you out, or it will kill you! But not once, have I heard anyone (Including Obama) say anything about GOD's people and God's CHURCH. Only things about the BLACK LIBERATION THEOLOGY. And I can tell you, as a pastor, you will be held accountable for things you have done in the pulpit, and things you have not done. It was only since Wright decided to retire that Obama decided that had Wright NOT retired, he would have left the church...but, have you heard the person who took Wright's place?? He's as bad if not worse than Wright. So what's Obama's excuse now? Does Obama think by invoking the name of Jesus with statements like "I pray to JESUS", or something like that, does that make Wright's comments ok. It doesn't. Wright is one angry human being and the things he did in the pulpit, talking about Hillary, the motion about Bill Clinton getting the "black vote" then screP***** the blacks, and Wright doing that horrible action, then Wright saying GD, makes me literally sick to my stomach. I know I will continue to keep Wright in my thoughts and prayers because if I EVER heard my Pastor or my Preacher use God's name in vain in the pulpit or ANYTIME, I would get up and leave! No matter how you look at it, using God's name in vain, there is NO excuse for it!! And by the way, Wright said it was ok to use because it was in the bible....well, WRIGHT was very wrong! God is HOLY! And HE commands us in the 10 commandments to NEVER take the LORD's NAME IN VAIN! Wright is a very angry man. I understand that. BUT, if Wright truly knew the LORD JESUS CHRIST as Saviour and Lord, he would or could NEVER use GOD's name in vain or do the things he has done that the media reports.....and there is NO WAY Obama would have stayed at that church!!! One last thing.....GOD help us if Obama is elected President. There is still a lot about this man that is not known and so much more that will come out. AND people should RUN AWAY from this man, WRIGHT, OBAMA and Michelle Obama who just said, "for the first time in her life, she is proud of HER country". Well, where has she been the rest of the time? She went to the IVY LEAGUE SCHOOLS.....I didn't. And this is AMERICA.....either LOVE IT OR LEAVE IT!! Dumb comment from Michelle Obama....maybe she has some deeper rooted issues and needs help. One last thing....the New Blk Panther Party has endorsed Obama. Farrakkan is a member of the NBPP....need I say more? And for all right wingers....like myself, keep your chin up. GOD IS ON OUR SIDE! But, tough times lie aside. And by the way, to the person who says Right Wingers want to bomb, bomb, bomb.....you have no clue....and need to turn off your democratic TV and start listening to truth. One other thing.....John Hagee is a MAN OF GOD. HE SERVES THE LORD JESUS CHRIST and one other thing......Hannity is smarter than all the dems put together! AND my friend, no one wants to bomb IRAN. BUT, we won't sit back and let them bomb us! UNDERSTAND THAT or is that over your head?? Probably over your tiny egg shaped head! IRAN has said twice, that Israel does not have a right to exist....and should be wiped off the face of the earth! And you don't think this country is dangerous? Yeah....right. And neither are their bomb making capabilities. So, dream on if you can.....but don't be surprised when the RIGHT WINGERS keep telling you over and over.....we told you so! I guess you think the gov't killed the 3000+ on 9/11/01.....right? UGH! Liberals. Why even address them!
#488 Senator Obama, won't be the first black anything. He's Mulatto, and in denial. He has an obvios identy crisis. If he were for any race other than black, he wouldn't have spent the last 20 years trying to be recognised, as one race over another. He's the one with racial preference. Sad thing is, you can't choose your race, you are what you are. Go Blog at CNN, there's lots of folks you will get along with there!
#631 Proud American - YEH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOVED YOUR WORDS!!!!!!!!!!!
You'd have to be either stupid or a liar not to admit there ia double standard when it comes to race in America (and the world). You cannot speak out against a person of color (is it OK to say black people these days????). Obama is there for one reason.. HELLO He is black. Hilary is there because she is a woman and McCain is there because he was a POW. DOn;t be afraid to state the facts in fear of being called out from a person of color.
Mark 13:6
What would Obama say if McCain's minister had made hateful comments like the ones made byWright? I also wonder why the IRS isn't going after this church; couldn't his comments put the tax status of the church at risk?
#595 LSM - I was really getting worried after hearing those men on Gretas show. I read a couple of the earlier posts and yours and are so glad to hear that wright is a minority. I just believe in the old fashioned preaching from the "BIBLE", just not "mans bible". Well, as a Christian, I know, you'll know what I mean. God Bless You.
I'm glad this is happening...I'm sick of affirmative action and all the benefits the so-called minorities enjoy. A "typical white" reverend would have been crucified by now if the shoe was on the other foot. It's about time for white people to quit letting the black guilt trip keep them down. Obama is a liar, Hillary is a liar and none of the Republican candidates were adequate, though in the general election Mc Cain will most certainly get my vote. I am a Christian Republican in North Central Pennsylvania and on April 22 I will be voting for Hillary and I didn't even need Rush to tell me to do so.
No matter what Obama will Win Im glad I can vote this year :-)
to Dee Williams ------------ Even more, it shows to the world what a stupid, lying, racist Obama is as well as those who believe in and follow him.
Memo to Martha (comment no. 184) It is not whether Wright's views may be only in minority of the black churches...........IT'S TEH FACT THAT IT IS THE 20 YEAR CHURCH OF A MAN WHO WANTS TO LEAD THIS COUNTRY. Wake up! Obama lies like a dog. Watch somw of Rev. Manning's sermons on YouTube
i don,t know why people think martin luthor king was so great, every where he went violance went with him. anyway back to the biggot obama. can,t tell a straight lie,can,t make decisions,how can you be a president when you don,t know where you,re at? McCain, he the man to lead this country. down to earth and got the background. Knows more about the economy than the people give him credit for.McCain did not say he would keep the troops in Erac
100 yrs. he said to build quarters over there for peace purposes, like we did in Germany and Korea and other countries.
Thank you Greta for your honest report! It is very sad to see CNN and MSNBC make excuses for Obama on a daily basis. I am a democrat that will vote for John McCain, if Obama is the nominee.
Keep up the good work, the American people need to know the truth about our next president.
The right-wing on this blog are really drinking the Hannity/Limbaugh/Ingraham, in other words: The right-wing biased propaganda KoolAid!!!! lol lol lol
BTW, have you heard that Rush might be indicted for his "Operation Chaos" felony tactics? ROFL!
If black people would just keep their thoughts and mouth close then things could just go on as usual. And white people could keep portraying to the world that they are good and fair to all and no one, especially blacks should ever try to expose them for the true evil that lurks within them. For to question that would just be unfair and unpatriotic. I dare anyone to correct fox news for putting their spin on what they call news . And by the way Michell Obama did not say that this is the first time she's been proud. she said " For the first time in my adult life I am REALLY proud of my country". And What makes a country ? people! and taking the word REALLY out of the comment changes the way it is perceived. And in closing let me just say that as a Black/white 52 yr of age woman this is the first time I have ever been Really proud of my country. Why? because my people Black and white are waking up out of ignorance and the VEIL is being removed.
~If it walks like a duck, talks like a duck, etc.
~Birds of a feather flock together.
Obama is a hypocritical racist and an obvious smooth-talker. The gullability of 'his followers' is insulting to watch! How can they be so blind? I just don't get what people see in him besides empty promises. I can just imagine what their spouses and/or children get away with if they are that shallow.
106. BJ Thank you for your honesty and thank you for giving me some hope. I had no idea that there was so much hatred being injected into our communities right under our noses and by so called respected leaders. I fear that this is just the beginning.
I read where one of the comments was about the way blacks and whites viewed the OJ trial. I agree this Obama candidacy is going to be the same thing. He is an obvious liar, but the blacks will never acknowledge that and would vote for him anyway. This is sad and probably a result of hearing preachers like Wright give their racist and bent views to their parishioner. I have never had a preacher that taught anything but the bible scriptures.
#619 Gail - Than your not a real Christian. I REAL Christian doesn't believe that killing baby's is ok. I real Christian doesn't take the name of their Lord in vain. You may wish to reread your bible. You should be looking to God not to ANY man.
Most people voting on Greta's poll are McCain supporters; therefore, the replies are biased and meaningless!
Also, Obama never said he would fire Imus; he said that was entirely up to the station, not him. So those who falsely accuse him of saying that are either LIARS, or they're simply not paying attention.
HILARY AND OBAMA ARE BOTH LIARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!---- I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT THEY HAVE ALL THOSE SUPPORTERS IN CONGRESS. I WOULD BE ASHAMED OF MYSELF IF I HAD SUPPORTED EITHER ONE OF THEM AND STILL CONTINUE TO DO SO.----MAYBE THEY ALL THE SAME----WHAT HAPPEN TO ALL THE GOOD, TRUSTWORTHY, HONEST MEN AND WOMEN WE HAVE ELECTED. GOD HELP AMERICA !!!!
Stop Taking about him being black or purple,white he is the man !!!! hater I don't understand people is dying in Irak (all colors) so have some respect.
If Obama can't defend his "Imus" position with Barbara Walters, how is he going to defend us when he has his "friendly chats with the enemy." Maybe he will just stutter his way through it. If most black churches preach the same message as Wright does, that explains why so many blacks hate whites and the USA. Any citizen is an American--not African-American, Mexican-American, Latino, etc. If they do not want to be "one America," go back to where the ancestors came from. If my pastor preached sermons like that, we wouldn't walk out, we would run him out!
Some of you want us to discuss the "issues"...but what bigger issue is there than an individual's character and especially the character of someone who is going to lead 300 million Americans. Is there a bigger issue and if so, what is it??? Some of you who can't see the relevance of these character issues must still be ignoring the obvious, that Obama is going to say anything which gets him off the hook which he is responsible for swallowing hook, line and sinker. Obviously there will always be people who are extremely poor judges of character...I can see them on this blog.
As I watch this footage from THE VIEW....it is unbelievable the way that Obama is sidestepping the issue and carefully trying to untangle himself from reality. What were the Democrats thinking when they allowed Obama to run for the nomination??
If Obama becomes president does Wright put him in the same group as Condoleezza Rice and Colin Powell? I mean that group of black americans that no longer need to be told every Sunday how all their failures are the fault of white americans.
He stayed in that church for twenty years, a person stays in a church because it coincides with personal beliefs. I don't believe for one minute Obama does not basically agree with the anti-American, anti-White stance preached, for twenty years, by his mentor. (exp: even today he had to put in a disclaimer concerning the greatness of America) I also believe Michelle Obama has bought into the hate American, anti-White rhetoric. ... notice, at least for now, she has been shut up. Her bashing America rhetoric did not give the impression she loves this country, to put it mildly. Yet she wants to be First Lady. Go figure.
What really frightens me is that we should all be yelling to the totally mesmerized, "put that glass down, and step away from the Kool Aid table!"
Thanks #609 C A. Obama is just as much white as he is black but America refers to him as a black man. Why? Because of American History. One ounce of black blood makes you black so said the white man. (that's history and it's present or has it changed?) Let's look at him as a white man having this relationship with Wright. McCain has relationships with controversial white preachers but that's o.k. Think about this! Let's stop and try to understand each others feelings and stop passing judgment like you are perfect. The black community as a whole I don't think has a problem with looking at Obama as a black man but do the white community see him as a white man?

Why does Fox Network bash Obama over something someone else says or does. They are 2 different people. Hillary tells BIG lies too, but she gets praised!! Fox is so transparent. They just keep the Rev. thing going so they can get Clinton elected. I'm white, but the things Obama says do not bother me. I don't turn everything he says into a big NOTHING. The Clinton twins lie and deceive and have for years. But, yet they seem to be what the people think are good for the white house. Your readers must be a bunch of cold hearted and callous people. Like Obama, I couldn't turn away from a friend I've known for 20 yrs. at the drop of a hat or just because someone thinks I should. It's not that easy.
Greta! I understand you have a law degree. Suppose you had to defend Mr. Obama and Rev. Wright in a defamation of character suit. What would you use for a defense? Also, what historical FACTS would you choose to validate
your approach?
What Wright said was of historical context, whereas what Imus said were insults about the outer appearance of blacks (nappy head) that they have no control over. Imus was outright using derogatory name-calling hurtful words, vs. Wright's discussion on comparing America to biblical history. Besides, these were not Obama's words or his beliefs.
Can anyone out there imagine, where Hillary or McCain would be if they had been members of the KKK, and David Duke had been their mentor for the last 20 years, and they still chose him as a family member and friend? They'd be tarred, feathered, and shot into outter space. That is to me the samething in reverse. Of coarse Senator Obama is going to deny this. I use to think he was intelligent, but I question every aspect of him now.
He has targeted college children, who are exceptionally guilable. Those are the educated people the media keep referring to. Their parents are upper middle class, they aren't. The endorsements, are bought, and paid for, and so are the Super Delegates. Hillary and McCain, can never get the contributions Ophra, can make, through the millions of people she knows. I'm for any other Candidate, and hope something happens to make people reallise the truth. This has set our country back 50 years to the very beginning of the Civil Rights Movement. None of here had anything to do with slavery. It was wrong, but it was 140 years ago...
Hi Miss Greta, it's me Holly the patriot act lady. (cute) yes i think you and yours should back off of Barack and go after mccain and his lack of knowledge of shia's in iran since he's the ultimate patriot. please report on something positive on Barack as he is just cool and he has a great vision on what could be a good place and not this fasict ole west secreacy shreading the constitition shit going on now. He is a class act and i am born to black bahamian biological dad and white lady from buffalo and was raised by my grandma and mom soley. and when i heard his grandma's story that's me. my grandma and i were best friends but pc forget about it but a scarpy lady with a heart of 24kt gold. so i feel as though Baracak and i are kindered spirits. and people make me mad when they say mean little things. truly the speakers sometimes i feel as though folks need to read a damn book. so please say only good things as he's just cool bye Holly my mom wrote you as well
#649 John - The word is "ancestors". You've never experienced slavery so don't state you have or insinuate. My white Grandma scrubbed floors to keep her 5 kids fed, ALONE. My white husband grew up in a 2 room house. 6 people. Outdoor toilet. Do I ever hear him complaining NO. Come into the 21st century and start facing the real devil - osama and his band of haters. If you think just because we're white we've never experienced racism in other ways YOUR WRONG. We are just tired of hearing about your pain when most of us have endured enough of our own! Different maybe, but let me tell you John Pain in any form is still PAIN! Maybe YOU should start looking at US 4 a change instead of always wanting us to "pity" you.

PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE------------I DON'T KNOW WHERE YOU'RE FINDING THESE BLACK MINISTERS-----------BUT THERE ARE PLENTY REAL "CHRISTIAN MINISTERS WHO ARE TEACHING GOD'S WORD TO THEIR PEOPLE ALONG WITH MANY MANY WHITES. IT'S AN EMBARASSMENT TO THE CHRISTIAN FAITH. THEY ARE NOT PREACHING THE GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST, BUT HATRED ALONG WITH HOW TO LIVE SOCIALLY AND EVEN THAT IS AN ABOMINATION. OBAMA'S CHURCH HAS IT ROOTS AND FOUNDATION --ALEGIENCE TO AFRICA WITH A HATRED FOR AMERICA; WHICH SHOWS ME WHY OBAMA DOES NOT WEAR A FLAG PIN. AGAIN: YOU CAN CHECK OUT OTHER BLACK MINISTERS SUCH AS creflodollarministries.org AT WORLD CHANGERS CHURCH, ATLANTA GA. AS WELL AS BILL WINSTON A BLACK MINISTER FROM ILLINOIS, I THINK LEROY THOMPSON AND FRED PRICE, FROM CA.

Barack Hussein Obama is a lier . I am a Democrat from Florida and if he is the nominee I will vote for the Green Party . I cannot believe that people want this man to be president. AMERICA WAKE UP !!!!! DO NOT MAKE THIS MAN OUR PRESIDENT .He is a fake.
Obama is just plain scary. I don't think he is lying, I think that he truly believes in Rev. Wright and he did not think there was anything wrong in any of his hate filled, racist speechs. Now that he has been called on it, and asked to explain it, he can't because he believes the same way. Then he sits there and squirms as he is trying to remember what his handlers have told him to say...GOD help us all if he is elected.
I forgot to mention in my previous post that Obama's stuttering, sputtering, and squirming is going to make for a great segment on O'Reilly's body language segment!!! And how ill I feel at the thought of Rev. Wright advising Obama in the Oval Office on any subject. Probably just as ill as I get when I think of Bill Clinton anywhere near the White House again. And why does Howard Dean still have a job?
Mr. Obama lies with dogs and gets up with fleas. He has not acknowledged the racist venom towards "Whites and this country" is wrong. Obama will never say the "Truth" and lies" of Rev. Wright were very racist and ugly towards this country. More will come to the surface and expose the teaching he has learned during his 20 years. Hillary looks good next to Obama!
IMUS REMARKS WERE DIRECTED AT YOUNG LADIES. NAPPY HEADED WHORES HOW RACIST CAN YOU BE.

----------------- It is not bashing to tell the TRUTH, about the RACIST OBAMA
America is fortunate to have a free press that is revealing the truth about Obama so that we can make informed choices in the voting booth.
I don't hold Obama responsible for the racist, anti-American, black separatist rants of Rev. Wright. However, I do hold Obama accountable for his 20+ year membership and participation in an organization that espouses hatred for whites and advocates preferential treatment of the "Black Community." I question the judgement of Obama for appointing Rev. Wright as his "spiritual mentor" and declaring him as "The most influential person in my adult life." Whether Obama was aware of the fact that Rev. Wright is a raging black separatist, Obama does admit that he has allowed a racist, anti-American, black separatist to influence his life. Would Americans vote for a white politician who had declared a Grand Dragon of the Ku Klux Klan as "The most influential person in my adult life." all the will remaining a member of an organization that preached hatred for blacks and advocating white separatism?
Obama having drank, for 20+ years, from the poisoned well that is the black separatism and hatred for whites espoused by Rev. Wright is what enables Obama to demand harsh treatment and condemnation of Don Imus, a white man, all the while offering understanding and excuses for the countless racist, anti-American, black separatist rants that were unabashedly and unapologetically spewed from a pulpit by Rev. Wright, a black man.
The comparison of Imas and Rev Wright are not warranted. Imas attacked innocent young "females". Rev. Wright is simply stating facts. American for whatever reason is killing thousands of people. Try explaining to those husbands, wives, and children the reason we are bombing and killing their families. America needs to understand the same way we judge other countries for having dictators that keep their people enslaved, is the same way they see us as we have famished areas and homeless people sleeping on the streets while Bush attacks a country under false pretense. Other countries see us as have a Dictator killing and starving his people the same way we judge them. Many are accusing Obama for dancing and being hypocritic while we do not understand where other countries are coming from. We are all human beings trying to survive and need to stop deciding who lives or dies, when we were not given that right, even as Americans. Fighting will never end if everyone keeps trying to pay the other one back. When will this end!
Yes we can !!!!
America is fortunate to have a free press that is revealing the truth about Obama so that we can make informed choices in the voting booth.
#669 What - all of a sudden you know how to type? AH HAH! You put that koolaid in the fridge - right? Come on now, tell us the truth??? Your so happy to see people in pain aren't you? Lovely person!
PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE------------I DON'T KNOW WHERE YOU'RE FINDING THESE BLACK MINISTERS-----------BUT THERE ARE PLENTY REAL "CHRISTIAN MINISTERS WHO ARE TEACHING GOD'S WORD TO THEIR PEOPLE ALONG WITH MANY MANY WHITES. IT'S AN EMBARASSMENT TO THE CHRISTIAN FAITH. THEY ARE NOT PREACHING THE GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST, BUT HATRED ALONG WITH HOW TO LIVE SOCIALLY AND EVEN THAT IS AN ABOMINATION. OBAMA'S CHURCH HAS IT ROOTS AND FOUNDATION --ALEGIENCE TO AFRICA WITH A HATRED FOR AMERICA; WHICH SHOWS ME WHY OBAMA DOES NOT WEAR A FLAG PIN. AGAIN: YOU CAN CHECK OUT OTHER BLACK MINISTERS SUCH AS creflodollarministries.org AT WORLD CHANGERS CHURCH, ATLANTA GA. AS WELL AS BILL WINSTON A BLACK MINISTER FROM ILLINOIS, I THINK LEROY THOMPSON AND FRED PRICE, FROM CA. THESE MINISTERS PREACH THE GOSPEL AND HAVE MILLIONS OF BLACK, AND WHITE PERISHIONERS AS WELL AS PARTNERS AROUND THE WORLD. SO PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE CHECK THEM OUT AND SEEK AN INTERVIEW WITH BLACK MINISTERS WHO ARE TRUE MINISTERS OF THE GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST. OBAMA IS SCEARY-----HE COULD TALK A DOG OFF A MEAT WAGON. AMERICA I BEG YOU DO NOT BE LED ASTRAY. WE ARE IN THE END TIMES AND THE BIBLE SAYS THAT EVEN THE ELECT WOULD BE DECEIVED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHAT AN EMBARASSMENT TO SEE THE WOMEN TREATING HIM LIKE A ROCK STAR--------REMEMBER LADIES----------EVE WAS DECEIVED IN THE GARDEN ---- NOT ADAM.
I think Obama could be the antichrist. He has a bunch of closed minded people following him. Why is he so ashamed of his middle name? We need to look into that a little more. He has something to hide. He was good friends with a terroist. America was founded on Christian values. We need to get back to our roots.
Obama cannot be held responsible for anything his Pastor says or does. Were Catholics to blame for the horrible things the pedophile Priests did to children for decades? I did not hear anyone asking elected Catholic officials to leave their Catholic church? Parents of those children still attend Catholic church although the church officials clearly covered up the evil that was done. Are they encouraging those priests? Most of you do not even attend church. Stop being hypocrites.
Obama is a hypocrite. I have my doubts if he was in regular attendance in church and that it was only for show and politics when he did attend. Obama once made a statement to the effect that he didn't have a sudden conversion to the faith, that it was a gradual thing. Born again Christian's can usually name a time when they made a personal commitment to Christ as that is when their life changed!
Any minister that spews hate from the pulpit does not have the love of Christ in his heart and should not be leading a "flock."
Also most churches today record their Sunday messages and make them available to those not in attendance so it should be possible, if anyone wanted to listen to Wright's sermon's, to obtain them. ~ Marilyn
I couldn't believe what he said on the View. What a double standard! Obama is a hypocrite and a racist. Wright certainly got through to him and it only took 20 years. Obama must think we are all stupid and cannot see through his double talk. Obama is a lier and wants the US to become a socialist country. He is way too liberal and that is exactly what the lefty liberals want. He wants America to become a socialistic country. His wife already proved to us when she spoke about America and what she thought of our country. She is just as racist and ridiculous as her husband. America is going down hill if Obama is elected President. What is it with people that they cannot see through this lier who has absolutely nothing to offer our country. He talks a good game, but that is about it. Some people see him as a charmer. I see him as a snake who will bite us all if he wins. Where in the world did they find this man?!? He will not turn our country around. He will spin it and destroy it. God help us if he wins. He'll probably ask Wright to be his VP.
I grew tired of hearing BO claim he does not support American policies that even Hillary could not separate herself from. The only thing he has experience in,20 years, is sitting in a racist church. He talks about the economy as though its as easy as telling corporations that they need to keep jobs in America. He finally stepped in sh_ _.He'll say anything to get elected... including lying about what he has heard at church. What a hypocrite!!! Wake up America!!!
Roosevelt a womanizer, Kennedys, womanizers, Clinton, a womanizer, LBJ, a moron, Carter, a peanut. Now we get a choice of a man that can't admit he was wrong and a woman that heard imaginary bullets. Why wouldn't I vote for McCain, he stood by his fellow prisoners and didn't take an "early out" because he had a famous daddy. Folks, at least acknowledge when a man of principled values is standing in your midst. Then cast your vote for one of these other people with no principles if it still makes you feel good.

Yes we can !!!! .................... Yes we can show for what he is, a RACIST, LYING, Anti American. OBAMA is for sure a RACIST, LYING, Anti American.
wow some people here are just a Haters ..... we need Jesus ... love obama!!!
I am appalled, but not surprised, at the arrogance of the Black Rev. you interviewed who defended the position of the Black Church and their, now, obvious racist views. Let us not forget the agreeing and cheering congregation behind Rev. Wright for whom his words were meaningful! It would appear to us, who have no color barriers that the Black community, through their churches, are cultivating racisim. I can say without hesitation that in all my years of attending my Catholic Church, I have never heard anything but the professing of love for all men. Therefore I am saddened that I now learn of the Black Reverends preaching loathing remarks.
Barack is a shill presenting himself as an honest man, but by his own body language and words is deceitful to the core. I and my fiends have expressed our fear of this man and what we believe he will bring to our country.
Barack strikes us as a smooth, smiling, equivocal person who will be identified by our allies and enemies as a fraud not to be trusted.
A VOTE FOR BARACK WILL SET EUROPEAN AMERICANS BACK!
TO ALL OF YOU CONFUSED WHITE FOLKS: Stay that way! Also, stay out of business of the Black churches. You would NEVER understand and guess what, it's NOT about racism. I wish there was a cure for your ignorance or a pill that would fix it, but there isn't one. Stop trying to make excuses for not voting for Barack or for bashing his wife and church. All you needed was an excuse -- Rev. Wright. Shame on you intelligent, college educated White folks -- right. Stop hating when you know all you wanted was an excuse. Go ahead and vote for McCain --- I hope you enjoy eating mud cakes and living outside. Most of your comments are so stupid until it's pathetic. Stop the madness and stop being so d*&@# ignorant!
I have seen it in the mans face, and heard it in his voice pure lies from start to finish. It is so sad that our young people are so blind they can't see the man for what he really is, and that would be a snake in the grass. the man is way out there as a racist and so many people just don't see it. If Obama gets the nod as the demo.nominee for pres. I will be voting for McCain and I'm a die-hard democrat. Wake up people before it is too late do you really want this guy running for president. HELLO this is reality we are talking about here the man has zero experience and is not capable of making a clear judgement decision. Do you really want to see Oprah as Vice President? As I always do I leave you all with this - GOD BLESS AMERICA the land that I love.
Another example of the "Double Standard." Is that pithy enough?
I was taken by this at first too. But after listening to Obama many times with an OPEN mind, I think he's honest when he says he wants to bring people together. Perhaps it was the rhetoric of Wright that encouraged him to want to do this. I originally wanted Duncan Hunter and Mitt Romney to win because I am a Conservative. However, after McCain has kicked Conservatives in the rear time and time with his Liberalism, pretending to be a Conservative, I feel we HAVE to send a STRONG message to him. If we don't, we will always be ignored and tossed aside by Republicans who will think we will vote for them "unconditionally" because of the "alternative." I don't know about you, but I'm fed UP!!! I flatly REFUSE to support McCain in November. Hillary would have been my Dem choice if it weren't for her "mandatory" healthcare reform ideology. Therefore, I'm either voting for Obama, or I'm NOT voting.
One of you said "The people on here was not going to vote for Obama anyway" Well I did vote for him in the primary however I will not be voting for him or Clinton come November. I have been listening to everything I can about all the canidates. I know to much about Mrs. Clinton and nothing about Obama except apparently he dislikes the United States and hates the white population with every fiber in his body as his wife does also. At the time I voted for Obama I really felt that some where along the way I would learn something about him that was favorable, little did I know that what I was feeling in my gut, that maybe he was a little anti American, by not having flags anywhere near him when speaking and removing the flag pin from his jacket was a statement, eventhough I didn't like him doing that since I truly love our flag and our country. It seems that all the Democrats have to say about Mr. McCain is he is just another Bush, well if keeping taxes low for most of the hard working American families, and giving our American Companies a break so they can be competative so they don't have to move their companies to another country is a bad thing then I guess I just became a republican because that makes sense to me.
I had no idea that American Black churches preached such racist sermons. No wonder black teens seem to have no respect for anyone. White churches never preach racist sermons. No wonder blacks are held back in achieving success but it isn't the White People keeping them down it is the Black Leaders preaching all this garbage every chance they get. I don't see the color of anyones skin when they present themselves as a good person. I do see a person as a threat when they have the appearance of some one I should be cautious of black or white. Now that I know what these Black Leaders are preaching to their young I will need to be more cautious when approached by any Black Person. I did not have anything to do with bringing blacks from their country and keep slaves. Their own people sold them to the British which brought them here. What would have happened to them had they not been bought and kept? I don't think the British would have taken them back home do you? I'm deeply sorry that they met such a fate but American was not built on their fate. It was built on the hard working people that came to this land and paid as great a price as any slave and maybe even a greater price . A true American that fought, died,lost loved ones and settled this wild country doesn't sit back and pity themselves and blame others for not becoming rich. We still work hard, educate our children, thank God for what we have, and Most of all Love This Country and our families.
it appears to me that some of the black churches in america would be a good place for obl to get recruits.
I'm white but I still believe in change :-P
706/CA...Catholics didn't sit in church listening to priests preach about the joy and righteousness of priests having sex with young boys. Thousands remained member of a Trinity United Church of Christ for YEARS after the racist, anti-American, black separatist rants spewed from the pulpit by Rev. Wright. I think it's safe to say that most Catholics would have left the church if a priest extolled the virtues of sex with boys.

Sharon, #682
I see Senator Obama, as a Mulatto man, half black, half white. The Press refer to him as black, because he has spent the last 20 years establishing himself as such. He chose black over white. I too am Mulatto, and have heard racial slurrs from both sides of my family. It made me want to do more to bring them together, not desert one for the other. Senator Obama, has gone to great lengths, to establish himself as black. He is in denial. He hasn't worked for any community, except black. Him belonging to the church he did, with the minister he had would be no different than the other two candidates belonging to the KKK with David Duke as their inspiration for the past 20 years. I of all people do not have racial preferences. I just want our President to have a record of working for all the people, without any racial prejudice. Senator Obama, has not done so. His judgement, to deny part of his heritage over the other is proof of that.
Wow, most of these bloggers are reactionary wackos! The US is not just a Christian nation, people, and I'm an Italian Catholic. I can read between the lines in these comments, he's "un-American, a racist, scary"...dude, WASPS are quickly becoming the minority in the US, so get used to people looking unlike you being the majority of America. Oh, and I live in Chicago and know plenty of white people who attended services at Obama's church, and not one of them was made to feel unwelcome or threatened.
obama will win cause he is the real thing .
Thank you #278...I love this country and I pray we can move forward in a positive direction for the good of all Americans...there are givers and there are takers...there are challenges we all face as individuals and as a member of a family...health issues...financial issues...losses that we have no control over...some are more fortunate by birth, some are more fortunate by hard work and good decisions, but all of us are fortunate by the random acts of kindness that we all can participate in. Can we take the "high road", be objective and reunite as Americans for the good of our beautiful Country...sometimes I feel we should put all the states in a hat and let the group who wants to be all white pull a state out of the hat and they all move there...those who want to be in an all gay world pull a state out of the hat and they all move there...those who want to be in an all black world pull a state of the hat and they all move there...etc., etc...I personally want to stay right where I am, learning to be a GREAT AMERICAN...where do you want to be?
Obama has destroyed any slim chance he had. Every time he opens his mouth another lie falls out. Obama has made it very clear he is an America hating racist. OBAMA IS A "TYPICAL BLACK PERSON" makes excuses for everything and cant ever step up and be a man by excepting responsibility!!!
He may be an excellent orator but he's a terrible liar. His body language and facial expressions while on the VIEW tell it all. I'm actually enjoying watching his uncomfortable posture and I hope this goes on for months. I also think Barbara Walters threw him a softball with the "Would you leave" question. I think he was prepared for it. I also think his answer to that is a little too late. Amazing how he responded affirmatively after all his other rationalizations failed to exonerate him and make this all go away. DEM'S beware BLACK WHITE GREEN OR BLUE this is not the guy you want to put in the White House.
Hi Margaret (#624 ),
Can't handle the truth ?? Juan Williams is honest and fair , but since you can't dispute his factual assessment you resort to disparaging character destruction ( typical for non-thinkers who can't provide counter arguments ) .
Facts are: OBAMA LIES ( as he did again on the view ! )
The facts are , even accepting his changing excuses , THAT HE IS EITHER (1) A CLOSET RACIST OR (2) A WHIMPY COWARD (for sitting silently by for 20 YEARS ) . Come on ---- take your pick !!
I have been dubious about Obama from the beginning but I tried to keep an open mind. As things have unfolded, I am totally afraid of him and cannot understand how anyone can support him. The idea of his being president is terrifying!

------------------------------------ Well, I guess you are niave and gulible. There is no other reason you could believe that the racist Obama wants to bring people together.
#714 Dennis James - Mr. James: now you don't sound racist not one iddy biddy little tiny bit. When you suggest, that its about the "color" of a man's or woman's skin color, IT IS YOU THAT IS SUGGESTING OR BRINGING RACISM INTO THE RACE. Shame on You! You wouldn't get it, however, if it hit you in the head with a brick. Why didn't you stand up for the "black" Alan Keyes? We are white AND would have voted for him. Never heard much from the "black community" supporting him. He's a brilliant man but probably has a few too many values for you, a devout Christian and NOT LIBERAL. So keep your idiotic comments to yourself. WHERE WE'RE YOU WHEN ALAN KEYES, BLACK MAN EXTRAUDENAIR, WAS RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT?
Ann - I am 61 years old and have never been so concerned over an election as I am this year. Obama scares me, Hillary is definitely not qualified to be President and I pray that McCain, due to his weaknesses, picks someone like Romney to be his VP, so hopefully we can find some sign of calm and orgnaization, which is what this country so much needs. Unfortunately, the news media is so absorbed in Obama no one else can get a fair "shake" to allow the people to know them. I don't think most of the news media cares what really happens to our country, they just want the most outlandish story they can get no matter who suffers for it and believe you me if Obama gets elected we will suffer. The long term affects are really scarey. There are plenty of qualified blacks and whites out there that could be President, where did this guy come from?????
look jesus love everybody no matter what :-) I forgive you son for being a hater hehe by the way he will be president :)
The antichrist, an interesting thought that has also crossed my mind. Maybe we better read about how he would fool people into believing he was a man of peace, a great leader.
Jesus said there would those that claim to come in his name, so, was he referring to the Pastor Wright? I saw the pictures of Wright gyrating as he raised the name of Monica and how Bill how "done the black people just as he did Monica". Christian? I don't think so, and if he isn't how could he have led Obama to Christ? What nonsense, the man's no more a Christian the Osama Bin Laden, get real.
720/I'm White....Explain to me if you believe in "change" why you believe changing the color of the genitalia of the President Of The United States is greater "change" than changing the configuration of the genitalia of the POTUS?
Is it patriotism and real American to call another American racist, liar, bigot, anti-American? A true American shows compassion even though you disagree with someones words or actions. An American does something that another American does not like. Does this give the American that disagrees the right to call the other American names and degrade them? Aren't we all hypocrites to react with such hatred towards our fellow Americans. As a white American I think it is my responsibilty to not put salt on the wound of blacks. At the same time I feel black Americans should try to heal the wound. And I am not saying forget history I am saying all Americans should look at each as just Americans. So all of the polls for the races should be done away with. I feel the only time race should be a factor is for health reasons because science has shown that certain medical conditions apply to certain races. All other issues should be equal.

#724 gee Gerry, you must not have been in attendance the Sunday Rev. Wright called all Italians "garlic noses" -- or perhaps that is one of your favorite nicknames? Racism is ugly -- in every form -- and the fact that Obama sat in that church for 20 years and did not reject the hatred and in fact has introduced these repulsive sentiments to his children by bringing them to services in that church is reason enough to question his judgment.
#724 Gerry - you've been taking too many meds I tink

#686 Making excuses for Obama will not change my mind. He denounced Imus but won't denounce his racist preacher. Imus messed up once and was fired. The Reverend has many times made racist and anti-American remarks and even taped them to distribute, but Obama can't denounce him. He will put African interest over American interest.

========== A true American shows compassion even though you disagree with someones words or actions.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Where the hell did you dig up that batch of dung? What a wierdo.
Corrine, our dialoge today can be the start of the CHANGE my candidate speaks of. Thank you for correcting my spelling; yet, I spoke of my parents. I look for or ever ask for pity! I accept your side of lifes history and I hope that your new college eduaction has brought change to you and your family as it has done mine. Your response has taught me something new. I can like a person from the opposite side as a human being. I can respect you for your intelligence. I can live here in America and not hate you. Can you do the same?
This is where Obama leads my thoughts, not Rev. Wright or Imus.
(HEY #720 I'm White So What) We all would like change, but not at the expence of our country or our freedom. I say that because Obama lacks everything. The ability to distinguish right from wrong, fact from fiction and truth from lies. If you are running for president of the USA you need to be up on your game and Obama has no game other than a game of fantasy land living. You need to step back into reality return to the year 2008 and stay away from fantasy land #720.
Did you hea Obama say that he was conceived when his parents met at the bridge in Selma Alabama? You did? He was born four years before that date. Did you know he claims to have worked in Constitutional Law? He hasn't.
You know Mrs Parks refused to ride at the back of the bus and give hr seat to a white person. Go girl, go. But Obama, the only thing a bus is good for is to toss people under. I'll give you odds that he has a few more he'll throw under there shortly. Vrooom, Vroooom
I don't support the racist remarks of that church either and I was SHOCKED also because I, a black, NEVER heard that in my Christian church either. I think the comments made in that church only fuels more hatred, and sets blacks back and keeps them living in the past. I also do NOT support blacks blaming whites for their failures, and Wright's words feeds into that attitude. But it could be because Wright grew up in the 50's and 60's, or he does that because that's what blacks want to hear; I don't know. All I know is that I don't believe Barack hates whites since his mother is white, and his family is multi-racial. If I thought Barack was a racist biggot, I would NOT be defending him; trust me, my husband spouse is German/Irish. And it's funny because when I first heard Wright, I was NOT going to vote for him. It wasn't until I heard him SEVERAL times, and it also was my GERMAN/IRISH spouse who convinced me that I should not condemn Sen. Obama for someone else's words. Again, if OBAMA made those statements, or agreed with them, I would NOT be supporting him.
WHAT DOUBLE STANDARDS BLACK PEOPLE HAVE.--- IF A WHITE PERSON WOULD PREACH LIKE REV WRIGHT AND WOULD OF SAID THE THINGS HE SAID ABOUT BLACK PEOPLE--- REV SHARPTON AND JESSIE JACKSON AND EVERY OTHER BLACK GROUP IN AMERICA WOULD BE PROTESTING, SCREAMING AND YELLING (WHICH THEY DO THE BEST)---- GET OVER YOURSELVES AND GET A LIFE!!!!!

ALL OF THESE RACIST COMMENTS GRIEVE MY HEART. IT IS UNBELIEVABLE THAT WE HAVE SO MUCH HATRED IN US. OBAMA SHOULD NOT BE BLAMED FOR WHAT REV. WRIGHT HAS SAID. WE ALL WILL BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR WHAT WE DO AND SAY. REV WRIGHT IS NOT RUNNING FOR THE OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT. IT SEEMS AS THOUGH OBAMA LEARNED FROM THESE CONTROVERSIAL STATEMENTS HOW TO LOVE AND HOW TO BRING PEOPLE TOGETHER IF WE WOULD ONLY LET HIM. WHERE IS YOUR LOVE? THIS IS WHY WE ARE IN THE POSITION WE ARE IN NOW. WE SHOULD ALL TURN TO THE WORD AND HONOR THE FIRST AND GREAT COMMANDMENT AND NOT TO FORGET WHAT THE SECOND ONE IS, "TO LOVE THY NEIGHBOR AS THYSELF". PLEASE LETS MAKE THIS A BETTER WORLD AND STOP DWELLING ON THESE HOSTILE WORDS. GIVE IT A REST AND TALK ABOUT THE ISSUES.
I couldn't agree more with the person who said Obama is the Manchurian Candidate....read the book people, it is more fact than fiction. From my perspective, it is clear that Mr. Obama is a racist and this country will in grave danger if he takes the presidency. What we are seeing is a white lynching, and people are getting very tired of all this hatred and garbage the likes of Rev. Wright is spewing. I believe Mr. Obama should leave the presidential race and the senate, we have enough problems in our country, we don't need to have hatred and racism at the highest levels of this country. Wake up American before it's too late. Vote for Hillary or McCain, anyone but Obama.
If he wins we are kissing this country goodbye and people in Iran, Syria, Lebanon will indeed be dancing in the streets for joy as they will see one more hate monger in a position of authority.
Dear IIIIIII, or whatever your name is, the point isn't whether or not Obama believes those things that Wright said. The question is "Why didn't he say what YOU just said!!? Answer me that other than some "historical malarky."
I agree with the comment that said some people were just waiting for what that think is a good reason to not support Obama. Is time to let the Wright situation alone. If people really understood the TRUE CHURCH then they would know Wright's comments are not typical of the black church. Why did Obama stay there so long? The same reason why a lot of other people (black or white) stay in there congregations; they don't really understand what the bible teaches and/or they are only attending in name only but not mentally. A lot of people go to church just to say they go to church. We all have some kind of religion but not all of us are practicing our religion. I think this may be the case with Obama. I believe him when he said he didn't hear Wright preach any of the sermons the media was showing because he probably was there but wasn't really paying attention. Which a lot of people are guilty of when going to church.
Believe It Or Not!!
Jesus also, gave the same "firery" messege as did Rev Wright. I challenge anyone to check it out!
Secretly, the Republicans "Came to Him By Night" (John 3)
It is unfortunate that America has become such a "blinded" nation by it's own unwillingness to "see" with "Our" "inner eye", that Sen Obama is the "ONLY" electable candidate, and I wish we would discontinue all the blah,blah about any issue and do something different like, putting Sen Obama in the "Seat" for the "Urgency Of NOW"!!
Many of us who say we are "religious"(Christians), may want to take a good look at what Jesus said- (John 3:19-21). Rev Wright said the exact same thing. what's the "holla" here?
However, Jesus was not only speaking of the Hebrew's inability to recognize him as the "Messege" of "Change" but was addressing the willful blindness of Humanity.
Discrimination of any kind, willfully or innocently committed, is a violent act against "All" Equally Created Beings.
Our inability to recognize and treat one-another as such is.... "The" issue.
Case in point: An MSNBC commentator recently critized an ignorant response made by Pundits, stereo-typing two very intelligent and well educated "black" analysts, because of they differing politcal views as though their "black-ness" would limited them to unrefined mimicry.
If we are brave enough to say that we are not blind,.....oops!
Where did that ditch come from?
How can I reach into my neighbor's "eye" to remove a splinter, when I can not see clearly; for the telephone pole in my own?

#745 John - I wasn't correcting your spelling, I was trying to make a point that ancestors meant "the past". I'm not college educated John. I wish I had gone, but no ones fault but my own. But my life has been good and fulfilling and I want for nothing. I live in a beautiful area and have a loving husband. Its the assumption of hate from blacks that bothers me. Your like to box us all together. If we're white we're against you. Look at it from our side. All of a sudden one is scared to hire than possible fire a black because all you hear is "racism" thats why they fired me. The media has given Obama a free ride, except for Fox, because he's black. If any white man had done or said what obama has, we'd be hung. Affirmative action makes us angry because its not about working hard its about color. We are now the minority. There should be no one treated less or more. The scale has tipped but its not even. I am a Christian and would not vote for Obama because of his most liberal views and one is on a woman's right to kill her unborn. Any man or woman who thinks its ok would never ever get my vote. Answer me this, why no stand up for Alan Keyes. My husband and I were actually excited when he ran for president because of his Christian values and also "brilliance" but the black community was no where really to be seen. But Obama comes around spouting pretty words, and might I say, no real substance so far behind them and people are kissing his shoes. We are getting away from Christian values and Obama OR Hillary don't have them in my opinion.
748/IIIIIIIIIII...Rev. Wright was preaching what is knowns as "Black Liberation Theology" it teaches that it is the fault of the whites that the "Black Community" suffers any type of poverty or less success than whites. Of course Black Liberation Theology never addresses the fact that more than 5,000 years ago Black Africans were selling other Black Africans into slavery. Of course Black Liberation Theology never addresses that since it was typical of the victors of wars to take the survivors of the losing side as slaves. Black Theology also fails to address the fact that it was Black Africans who sold other Black Africans to white european slave traders to take to the Colonies/United States. Black Liberation Theology is permitted to spew hatred and anti-American lies because it's protected because it's called a "religion."
I guess it would be okay for the KKK to get fired up again so long as they declared themselves a "religion."
What people need to understand, racism is wrong, regardless of the race of the racist.
dear greta, please continue to share info with America about Obama. He is an awful person who thinks that the American people are stupid. Is this the message that we are sending to our future generation,that it is okay to be a consistant liar and racist? I could not believe him on the View this morning. Still lying to the American people. Yes, he is a good speaker and so was Hitler. I am a black American .a member of a black church. Never in my church or other black churches that I visited in New York, Texas, Maryland,Washington and etc. I have never heard such terrible words uttered.I know the Super Delegates have to know that Obama will be a disaster to our Country. I hope and pray that a break through will happen so we can put it to an end before the convention. Yes, Hillary didn't tell the truth about Bosnia and that was wrong. We should forgive her but the media continues to beat her down.She is not a racist and she is a Christian. Continue to stay on top of Obama and his past . We do not want him as our President.
Everyone is dancing around what the Rev. said including Sen Obama! Some of the statements are crazy and if anyone believes them they are closee to insane. Rev. Wright doesnt care what he said as long as it inflames his audience. He is from the Black Panthers of the 60's but Sen obama doesnt care and will not try to stop him or people like him.
#756 Shirley - Your not reading from the same Bible I do. Jesus would never condone the killing of the unborn as wright has stated is ok! He never preached hate. I find it appalling that you would state Jesus "message of change" as the same as obamas. Disgusting. Did you read the part about "false prophets". Try reading about them and "Revalation".
I dont think all black churches are like that from people who I have talked to. I have worked with black preachers and have friends who go to black churches. I have been to a few black churches and have been one of only a few white people to a black wedding as well as dated a black women. If at any time I would here a preacher speak the comments as reverend Wright did, I would have condemned him and ran as fast as I could to get out of there. It is hard to believe in the year 2008 that some of these other so called preachers embrace reverend Wright. WOW!
For Obama not to condemn reverend Wright immediately and say he should be removed from future preaching, whether or not he has heard those words while in church or not, while condemning Don Imus is very confusing to understand and very hipocritical. For someone running for President of the United States, he sure has dropped the ball.
Why is it that the only people who want to turn the Obama problem into a race issue are the Left Wingers, while the Right only want it to be about what it is, Obama's lying, and Anti American views.
#649...John,
As a black person you should know, slavery ended over 140 years ago.. 50 years ago, was the beginning of the Civil Rights Movement. I'm the same race as Senator Obama, Mulatto, but I respect both communities. I grew up hearing racial slurrs from both sides, and it only made me more determined to bring them together. Not to spend 20 years, trying to embed myself in one community over another. Senator Obama, has a denial, of who he is racially. It was very poor judgement, as a Mulatto Man, he could have bridged the races, brought CHANGE to UNITE us as ONE AMERICA, but not as a Black man wanna be. He wouldn't be the first black anything. He is what he is, Mulatto, and he could have very easily used that as an advantage...but he did not. I of all people, am not predjudice, but, I'm sorry to say, Senator Obama is, and so is his wife. I've been to as many black churches as white, and many many others. There is nothing Chritian, about Liberation Theology, not even the black side of my family agree it is Christian. Where do you suppose, the other two candidates would be, if they had been members of the KKK and David Duke was their mentor and inspiration? There's really no difference. Do you think. Both Duke and Wright are bigots, anti racial people. Although I don't believe David Duke was Anti American, as
Reverand Wright clearly is.
Gosh, some of these statements are pretty hateful. I hope they recognized the irony of calling Obama a hypocrite (and O and his pastor racists) when they are spewing some pretty hateful rhetoric themselves.
I am a Republican, so I wouldn't be voting for Obama regardless. I think he has been impressive, particularly since he has taken on one of the most powerful political machines in our history. I have - at least before all this Wright stuff came out - some respect for Obama and found him likeable. Not voteable by me but likeable and respectable based on what I knew of him.
But the character demonstrated since this pastor story broke wide open really concerns me. He can say that we’ve all disagreed with our pastors before. I have from time to time on minor matters, but I have never disagreed (to my recollection) with anything coming from the pulpit. I am a white woman, and I attend church regularly (every Sunday). If my preacher stood in the pulpit and made hateful comments about our country, about any racial or ethnic groups, or about other religions, I would immediately go to the church leadership and demand something be done about it. And I would probably walk out of the church as soon as it was said – along with a lot of other people in our congregation. No leader, regardless of race, should be given a free pass when spitting out such venomous messages.
We know a man who’s always been nice to us. He’s funny and intelligent and often kind. But he is a racist. I can respect some of the work he has done for the community. I can be friendly to him on the street or if I run into him at some civic function. I can like the part of him I see most of the time. But he is a racist, a white supremacist, and everyone in town knows it. (He is very vocal about it.) It doesn’t matter how nice he is to me, I simply can not be friends with him. I can’t respect someone who could have such hatred for people just because they are a certain race or belief of superiority for the same reason. I certainly could not sit in a pew if he were a preacher.
I also don’t buy the comparison of so-and-so Republican accepting an endorsement of some person or speaking at Bob Jones or a variety of other “comparisons” that have been made. If Barack Obama only spoke at this church, which seems to have a lot of anti-American sentiment, and was not a member, I would say this was a political tempest in a teapot. And politicians accept endorsements from some … unsavory folks. That’s politics, and that’s why I’m not in ‘em! But to be a member of a church for 5, 10, 20 years where this type of hatred is regularly preached and endorsed, well, I find that unfathomable for anyone of anything but the lowest character. I don’t know why Oprah left that church, but I have to think that very hatefulness had something to do with it. You can not be a positive, visionary, hopeful, inspiring leader if you allow yourself to be dragged into hatred and bitterness over the (very real and horrible) mistakes of history, the worst of which occurred really before you were even born. And I know without a doubt that if a white Republican were running and was found to be a longtime member of a church espousing white supremacy, no WAY would my vote go that direction. Hello – how far do you think David Duke would get in a national election?!
It is very disconcerting that so many blacks have said this stuff is preached in black churches all the time. I live in a town that’s about 40/45% black and 55/60% white. I pray that all ours aren’t preaching such hatred for our country and for whites, such a divisive Afrocentric message. Pride in heritage is one thing; superiority and condemnations of others are quite another. What an impossible roadblock to racial harmony. If a “white” church did it, I’d condemn it in the strongest terms. I don’t understand why more people – black and white – aren’t doing so in this case. Wrong is wrong, period.
I am Conservative, but not really a Republican even though I vote Republican. I'm registered as a Republican to vote in the primaries, but I am an Independent/Conservative. I don't vote for people I like; I vote for the person I think is best for America. I have voted for Republicans I hated, but thought they were best for our country. I never voted for Bush. I voted for Ralph Nader. I am very, VERY upset that Mitt Romney didn't win the nomination. But again, I will NOT be supporting McCain based on principle. Besides, he's a Liberal anyway, so what's the damn difference? As far as Conservative judges, no Conservative judge will retire if a Dem is in office; therefore, the only hard Dems can do is replace a Lib. judge with another one if there's a retirement. Trust me, I HATE Liberal judges who vote like the ACLU (American Criminal Liberties Union) - Ugh! So I am very concerned about that. But I am NOT a right-wing fanatic who will support McCain after he's kicked me in the butt for YEARS! You think OBAMA's a LIAR, but trust McCAIN? PAAALEEEEZE!!!! I can't stand the SIGHT of that man because if he had run as a Liberal Democrat, as he is, Mitt Romney could have won the nominee!!! I feel CHEATED by this man once again!
I'm turning in. It's late, and I have a life.
=0)
#752 - Jackie - check out the part in the Bible about "beware of false prophets". Jesus taught love but you got to read some more. He warns us about certain people and to stay away. Theres much more to his teachings than love one another. If you look at the size of the Bible, its just a might bigger.
"Obama the "patriot": would not wear a U.S. flag lapel pin; would not pledge allegiance to our flag; has a wife who has never been proud of our country; has a spiritual advisor who advises God to damn America. What is patriotic about any of this?" Quote from Bob. Well put.
I also wonder why he isn't asked about this behavior. Is Obama a muslim in the closet? A true muslim would not be able to pledge allegience to anything but allah, wouldn't be able to where a pin of our flag, wouldn't have a wife proud of America, would follow a spiritual adviser that damns America. Also his sicko church congragation working themselves into a demonic looking frenzy while their not job leader is "God damning America" It also must be noted that this apostic church awarded Louis Farrakan an achievement award.
If God forbid Hussien Obama is elected pres there will be muslims all over the world dancing in the streets,giving candies, and making those disgusting noises with their tongues in celebration of the largest scam/achievement in their world conquest agenda. I hope the blind sheeple in America wake up to what is really going on before we have the flag of islam flying over the white house. Also as stated Obama will surrender to the terroists and pull our troops out of Irac and Afganistan in the largest disgrace this country has ever had.
Think think think before you vote.
1. Mccain, too old for president he will forget what is said and done. He need to be at home with his pretty young wife........
2. Clinton, To good at lieing will lie about everythig comes her way.
3. Obama, is the right one need to be the president of the us. I salute you Sen. Obama.
The world is fighting Islamic Jihadists,
and now White America has to deal with
BLACK JIHAD being preached in the pulpit against the white race.
769.By: TOO OLD FOR PRESIDENT -------------------Granted, McCain is Older and much more experienced than his two dispicable opponents, but isn't that a good thing as compared to voting for the corupt, lying, racist, inexperienced Obama or Clinton?
#764 Kay - great post and interesting read - always good to get "good" info. The other side stated intelligently. Please don't think I'm insulting you in any way, but I've often snickered at all us white folk who lie out in the sun or in tanning booths risking skin cancer to look just like you! Amazes me at times. And thats our only difference. All the rest is the same, at least physically. ALL of our backgrounds are different no matter what our skin color.
You conservatives think you are slick. The real issue is, if Obama wins the democratic primary he wins it ALL. And you all know that and you are scared. Sooo what you do is bring out the most irrevelant issues there is you could bring up to distract the people from the real issue at hand. Forget about policy lets talk about a the preacher. Scare the inner fears of white America when in fact they know full well that most of them can't afford another four years of Bush's policies. But the internal fears of white America clogs your thoughts and have you to dismiss the fact that they all have lied and in ways all have showed a form of racism. McCain by continuing to emphasize Obama middel name. Clinton by saying this is a fairy tale election while Obama is campaigning in S.C. But Obama states that he wants to change the views that white, black, hispanic, asian, and all other Americans have you all label him as a racist. How cowardly of you! Most of what you said about Obama has been assumed however everything I have mentioned has been spoken out of the mouths of both candidates but you ignore that fact. You can not say that you have heard him say anything racist. How could the man be racist and he was raised by his white mother. You all have really stooped pretty low when you have to try and associate someone with someone elses views. And again Wright was quoting a white man EDWARD PECK. Do your research. Or just say that you don't want him as a president because he is black. But stop lying! I know you don't like Obama and that is fine. But stop lying to yourselves. Rev. Wright is not Obama, Hagee is not Bush, Peck said the chickens have come home to roost and he is WHITE. Is he a racist or a realist. YOU ARE SCARED OF CHANGE. And change is inevitable!
#769 Too Old For President - What you state is ALSO a form of racism you know.
Obama ... NOT A CHANCE IN HELL.------------If the proven racist and liar OBAMA wins the Dem. nom., no Rep. will vote for him, and no intelligent Dem. will vote for him either.
#773 McCain Never Ever enforced Obama's middle name. That radio news caster someone hired stated it. BUT, it IS his middle name so if he's NOT ahsamed whats the big deal. Just get your facts right. Oh, #773, and politicians tell the truth! Obama thru his Grandma under the bus "for his election". Don't talk to us about truth! You have GOT TO BE KIDDING. You believe ALL you hear? I have a bridge for sale in..........................
There is one thing of many, which most of Our Anglo Brethern seem to not understand the Souls of Our darker "siblings" and historically so.
People of little to-no melanic complexion, may have experienced only "1" dimension of American life, but those whom we have deemed melanic, as though it were a disease to be feared, have lived muti-dimensional American lives.
Our stories as Human Beings, seem to be far removed from Our stories as Americans.
776... I heard McCain repeat the middle name a thousand times on more than one station. You do the research. Oh, since you have a bridge for sale go ahead and jump off of it I don't need it.
Keep up the good work, Greta & Fox! Obama is more than just a hypocrite, he's a dangerous con meister. Obama needs to be exposed for what he is: a corrupt & cynical slimeball politician posing as a great statesman (I could puke whenever he's compared to Bobbie Kennedy or JFK or FDR or LINCOLN!!). I avoided Fox News before because I felt it was too pro-Bush, but now I can't stand the totally DISHONEST Liberal media's fawning over this transparently lying Obama. (I'm a Liberal.) Someone needs to investigate the rumor of Farrakhan acolytes that have worked & continue to work on Obama's staff. I have been suspicious of Obama's campaign in all its Madison Avenue slickness from the beginning, but what I find ominous is the enormous amount of money behind Obama and the peculiar blindness of the Liberal media to Obama's glaring flaws. Something is up. I have little doubt that Obama has a hidden agenda inimical to the US. I have really had my eyes opened to how easily manipulated the faux "intellectual" yuppies are -- they're nothing but sheeple who follow the herd. They're more concerned with appearing "politically correct" than having any intellectual honesty or moral backbone. Do NOT let this issue die. Obama has to be stopped!!
Just wait....more of this subject will rear it's ugly head before it's all over and the Democratic party will implode under it's own weight. It's easier for people to be just victims than to take responsibility for their words and actions. Trust that there will be other issues to arise for Obama, he may not want the presidency after he sees that he will have to distance himself from this racist church in Chicago to get the white vote.
778.By: 773 | Mar 29, 00:31
============= Soooooo, now it is a bad thing to use ones middle name. Wow, I did not know that. We should all have our middle names legally removed, so no one will ever make that terrible mistake of using a middle name, again.
OMGOSH, I can't believe I'm watching FOX, I was watching MSNBC. They went so totally BHO I can't believe I quit them. That preacher? needs to exposed every day! You sit there 20 yrs. and said I may have to cut ties because you got pretty hot with those sermons. Then you go on every network and said you never heard it. Them you read a speech from a telepromter and admit you heard it!!
Furthermore no one ever mentioned he said he was in Chi. part of the day Wright said GD America but later that day you were in Fla. How did he get there?? The planes and trains were grounded I would like to know How he got there?? By car?? Some one tell me cause its along way to Fla. from Chi.
Sound a lot like this current administrations run for presidency doesn't it...779? Now look at the mess we are in! Yeah... vote McCain he wants the same thing! Another four years of debt! Rush push for chaos is indicative of the campaign he supports. If you don't believe, look at the economy! It's no longer about racism people, it's clasism!
If Obama would now quit his pastor for what he is saying, why did he not quit 20 years ago. His pastors beliefs haven't changed in 20 years. The only thing that has changed is that Obamaa is now running for President. How stupid does he think we are?
#761-Before you responded to my comments, did you accept the challenge to research the KJV,NIV or info offered?
I invite you to ask for Wisdom and Guidance on this subject which can only be received from your inner vision and not neccesarily the television.
Meditation works great!
If McCain can get us President Bush for 8 more years, I say GO GET PRESIDENT BUSH for us Mr. MsCain. PLEASE. We need President Bush again. ..8 more Bush years....8 more Bush years....8 more Bush years....8 more Bush years....8 more Bush years....8 more Bush years....8 more Bush years....8 more Bush years....8 more Bush years....8 more Bush years..
I am black, and I am so disappointed that my people are saying that there are so many racist comments made my whites on this board. I haven't seen ONE racist comments; only opinions. No one said anything derogatory about blacks or anything. Blacks have to learn to be criticized without calling people racist. This is so ridiculous. If Jeremiah Wright can criticize America for her past sins, then certainly Obama can be criticized for what is perceived as his "present" ones. If Hillary's church had David Duke for her preacher and substituted black where Wright used white, you would be calling for her head. You can't have it both ways.
So people, PLEASE! STOP being so sensitive! I know slavery was a terrible thing, but so was the holocaust and you don't see Jews letting that hold them back from excelling. We MUST stop living in the days of slavery and live in the present. Those slave masters are DEAD, people, wake UP! I know some racism still exists, but it will NEVER be perfect. If you're going to be miserable and immobile waiting for zero racism, you'll be miserable failures until the day you die! There is enough opportunity for ALL of us, so live in the present and love your country. Otherwise, go live in another one. And trust me, if you do, THEN, you will LOVE and miss America for all the GOOD she has to offer! I LOVE my country, and have prospered well here with only one year of college, with no help from Affirmative Action, or the government. You can too.
Good night...
782... It's not the fact that he stated his middle name, it is the implication you are trying to paint of the man. His middle name is his middle name. Now did he continually repeat the middle name because he is too old and very forgetful? Or did he continually repeat the man middle name to paint this scary picture to white america. Lets play into the racial sterotypes of white america and remind them that not only is he black with a muslim name but his middle name is Hussuin. Well keep it going and tell them he grows a tail a night also. That will really scare them. What upsets me is that you think white people are that shallow to believe the shallow portraits you paint. McCain will lose...
Middle name, so what if it was for either of your reasons. Big Deal. It just doesn't matter why he used it. it is completely unimportant. He also always said William Jefferson Clinton when refering to that sh it bag.
Was Obama sleeping in church for the past 20 years ? He could have reasted better at home in bed . I'm truely sorry he was not more honest with the American people . I belived there was a hiden side to him from the begining . He was too quick to flatter and too quick to avoid answering questions in a direct fashion . The sad part of all this is the black community will follow where ever he leads without even making the smallest of protest . Pray that God will deliver us all from men or women black or white with such personalities .
To # 181 ... there are whites on that team also, just so you know.
Furthermore, even if what Imus said were specifically addressed to the black's on the team ... this just points out more double standards in the black community. Growing up and still to this day, I constantly hear blacks calling EACH OTHER "nappy headed" ... but then again, these double standards never cease to exist. Imus got it socked to him ... Wright and Obama need it socked to them also -- FAIR IS FAIR, RIGHT?? Al Sharpton would be talking all kinds of smack had that been a white minister saying those things. Hey, why don't the whites all gather and have a huge protest? BECAUSE THOSE OF US WITH SENSE don't take out the actions of a handful of blacks on the entire race!!! I'm beginning to think we should.
The first time I heard Obama speak, I felt that he was putting on an act to deceive the American public. Unfortunately I was right, as I feel that his "Chanage" is one that that has no foundation or good cause for the American people, as it now reflects his hate of the nation that he has been indocteranated in by his Pastor and other black churches. They are lamely giving us answers that this is the course of their beliefs. Where did Jesus, God, The Lord, go? where is one of the great commandments (Love thy neighbor as thy self, for the love of me.) Where have they lost all of God's love of man aand country. They talk of their slavery and pesercution, well, that happened long ago, before I was born, before my grandparents and those before them. I was persecuted because of my great grand parents, who came to this country from Europe, and did not speak english when they first arrived and it took about 20 years before we outlived their cruel remarks, however we were taught to be kind and considerate and we won the respect of those who showed us disrespect, as we became leaders in our community by hard work and giving of ourselves. The majority of the black population hate us, and Oboma has picked up the weapon (promises of Change infiltrated with lies). I believe like most of the postings on this site, that we are being cruely taken up by this silent fight that exists in most of the black churches and their ministers owning up to their beliefs as ministry due to their background. This is no excuse!! The thing that hits me hardest, is the media, making excuses for Obama, and that includes Fox News, well I believe like some of the other folks who have posted their views here, Oboma does not deserve their protection, as I believe he is so indocterenated with Rev. Wrights beliefs that he thinks he has this country's voting population fooled. Then to think that there are people who want Hillary to give up her campaign. I say she has to stay to protect our country, and see this thing out, and this will give us time to get the real information out on this candidate who is supported by haters of the American public, and will change our country's freedom, and our right to the truth in the American press. God save our country.
llllllllllllll 00:45
THANK GOD...FINALLY...SOMEONE WITH SOME SENSE!!!
It is sad to see American people still easy to be a victim of a sale. Obama can talk and talk but he cannot do the walk. Texas voted for Mrs. Hillary and if she does not win we are going to vote for the republican. We the people do not want to change our rights, the constitution.... We want the demos and the republican to fight. why? Check and blances. that is how things are in life. Like a car battery it does not work neg and neg or positive and positve but neg and positive. that is the way our government is running and that is why it works.
Another reason I believe BHO is NOT a Christian and doesn't know jack about the Bible is he said the "Sermon on the Mount" was justification for gay marriages WHAT???? WHY IS HE NEVER QUESTIONED ABOUT THIS?
He also said people use (((obscure))) passages from Paul to condem Gay acts. WHAT??? WHY IS HE NEVER QUESTIONED ABOUT THIS ALSO?
This sounds like the way muslims twist the Holy Bible, right???
Again I say he is in the muslim closet and needs to be outed. Is this more of the teachings from Wright or something more scary, either way is unexceptable!!!
OMG PEOPLE..LET US NOT FORGET OBAMA'S MIDDLE NAME.."HUSSAIN"..DOES THAT NOT INSTILL ANXIETY..HAVE HEARD IT SAID..A MAN WILL COME FORTH SEEKING LEADERSHIP WHO IS SMOOTH OF TONGUE BUT BE WARNED HE WILL DESTROY YOU FROM WITHIN..AND WHAT BETTER WAY TO DO SO THEN FROM THE "OVAL" OFFICE..BE AFFRAID "AMERICAN" WOMEN..THE "BURKA'S" ARE COMING..BE VERY AFFRAID..WE MIGHT AS WELL PLAN ON A "CHANGE" FOR THIS GREAT NATION TO A "BILL OF "" NO "" RIGHTS..CHANGE IS COMING TO AMERICA AND IF "HUSSAIN" GET"S IN WE WILL BE KNOWN AS "OBAMA-LAND" NOT HOME OF THE FREE..BUT OF "MUSLEM-MANIA"..WHAT IF HIS FIRST NAME WERE "HUSSAIN"..WOULD YOU THINK TWICE...HMMMMMMM
NOT TO WORRY !!! The bigoted, racist lying, Anti American Obama is DONE. He may win the Democrat nomination, but after that he will be finished like his hero, Castro. Obama is just a flash in the pan, and will lay there, rot and stink until even the most stupid of Democrats finally throw him in the garbage where he belongs.
The black church... the CHURCH has many more issues to deal with outside of ranting and raving racist sermons. Our call as christians, white, black, brown, yellow is to reconcile people to Christ. With our communities in the shape they are in across the board (both sides of the tracks) we don't have time to focus on anything besides Christ. Please don't be typical and heep all of the black churches in one barrel. In fact I would advise that you to keep your worldly judgements out of Gods business. If the church is wrong, God is big enough, sufficient enough, and wise enough to handle the situation. Should you be taken a back, sure. PRAY! But don't heap all black churches in one barrel. Peace.
I think it is interesting that people are believing Barack’s statements that he would have left the church and how offensive he found Rev. Wright’s comments when he had originally invited him to give the invocation at his presidential announcement in February. He was not disinvited until the night before because, as Rev. Jeremiah Wright puts it, one of his “members had talked him into disinviting me” (taken from an article by Jody Kantor following an interview w/ Wright found at: http://www.nytimes.com/2007/03/06/us/politics/06obama.html?_r=1&oref=slogin. Does Barack seri). If his advisors had not urged him, Wright would have given the invocation and, even so, Wright still prayed w/ him before and attended. What that tells me is that in February, Wright’s comments were not offensive enough to warrant a seperation publically. It was not until his comments were made public that the seperation began. I do not believe Barack for a minute that he was deeply offended b/c it didn’t seem to bother him up until a few weeks ago. I think he is an eloquent speaker and probably a kind person, but not a fit candidate for the presidency of the United States of America. In addition to this hypocrisy, there is news that the Rev. Wright lives in a mansion and has accumulated a lot of “worldly riches” which is beyond the “middleclassness” that is spoken against both by Rev. Wright and Michelle Obama. The more factual information that is shared, the more hypocrisy is revealed. Clearly, all people are hypocrites in some way; however, a candidate for the presidency of the United States must be held to a higher standard. I don’t understand why liberals are so mad when factual information is shared. This is an expectation for ANY candidate on either side!!! While I think it would advance our country’s continued striving toward equality to have an African-American president, it has to be one who is qualified!!!
Yes you are so right 796,,,, after all you are from Michiganastan, you see 1st hand the begining signs of the take over. Remember what used to be Hamtramack, a modest Polish town, now has the mosque blasting the muslim prayers over speakers, driving the Infadels out. Why doesn't the country see what is going on???

'White people' of this country are so hypocritical, even when faced largely with "TRUTH" of the atrocities 'Whites' have done to "African Americans" for YEARRRRS. Also, it is quite unfortunate white people are SO EASILY SWAYED!!!!!

The Truth About Slavery
from the American Dissident Voices
The history of America and of Western Civilization is not being taught as it should be in our schools and universities today. Historical facts are suppressed, and what is taught is distorted in such a way as to advance the world government agenda, with all inconvenient historical facts, knowledge of which might cause our young people to question that agenda, purposely left out.
It is a tragedy of monumental proportions that our schools have been converted into "liberal" brainwashing institutions, though I do feel a sense of encouragement when I read that more and more real Americans are taking their children out of the public schools and teaching them at home. As regular listeners to this program know, the global elite that push multiculturalism push it because it undermines our national and racial sense of identity, and not out of any love or concern for ethnic minorities. In fact, it should be obvious to everyone that multiculturalism and globalism threaten the racial and cultural integrity of all peoples, not just White Americans. Nevertheless, because America is, or was until recently, a predominantly White nation, one of the primary ways that national disintegration is promoted by the destroyers of nations in this country is by the inculcation of White guilt for Black slavery.
By recounting and emphasizing again and again the real and imagined sufferings of Black people under slavery, the White student is made to feel that his ancestors were cruel, morally retarded, and evil. They are made to feel that they owe Black people a nearly infinite compensation, since, they are taught, Black people’s problems today are the legacy of hundreds of years of slavery for which White people are responsible. They are taught that the relative prosperity which we enjoy today was achieved largely by exploitation of Black slaves. Is it any wonder that thousands of our young people join Jesse Jackson in chanting "Hey Hey Ho Ho, Western Culture’s Gotta Go"? Is it any wonder that they all too often reject our European cultural heritage and embrace all forms of alien styles of music, dancing, dress, grooming and slang, from Jamaican "rasta" to "gangsta rap"? Is it any wonder that White teenagers are committing suicide in higher numbers every year? They have received, in our public schools and colleges, not a "liberal education," but an education by liberals. They have been taught very well indeed -taught that they and their ancestors and their traditions and their natural feelings are worthless and an obstacle to be overcome.
Now these liberal lies are easily countered by facts. The primary fact that must be emphasized is that many hundreds of thousands of White people were slaves in early America. In fact, White slavery was not only extremely common, but until the late 18th century it was far more common than Black slavery here. Also little known is the fact that living and labor conditions for Black slaves, bad as they often were, were usually far better than those for White slaves.
At this point, many of you are probably saying "White slaves? What in the world is he talking about? Sure, there were White indentured servants and apprentices in colonial America, and maybe sometimes they were treated badly, but actual White slavery - that’s something that disappeared with the Romans and the Vikings. And to compare White indentured servants to Black slaves is the worst sort of racist distortion of history!"
Obama is a LIAR, and a Hipocrit. He can't answer a simple question, always hiding. Which makes me wonder about the story with Larry Sinclair ?? failing the lie detector, yeah right. I bet his dirty hands are covered in it...
How anyone can be affiliated with a racist for 20 years and not know it. If he is that blind I do not want him even as a senator. This is ashame that they go worship the biggest racist in the world Farakon..give me a break. Obama is the biggest FLIP FLOPPER !
Obama is full of sh*t.
IMUS was trying to be funny with an edgy comment that accidentally went to far. Rev. Write was trying to be persuasive and inspire hate.
Obamba seems to be senile. He can't remember what he says from moment to moment and he keeps putting he foot in his mouth...
I BELONG TO TWO CHURCHES, AND I DO NOT ALWAYS TOTALLY AGREE WITH SOMETHINGS EITHER PASTOR SAYS, AND IF YOU TOTALLY AGREE WITH EVERYTHING YOUR INSPIRATIONAL SPEAKERS SAYS THAN YOU SHOULD MOVE TO STEPFORD, AND BECOME A STEPFORD WIFE.. YOU LISTEN TO PEOPLE AND IF YOU ARE A THINKING ADULT YOU DECIDE FOR YOURSELF ,,, FOR YOURSELF IF THAT IS WHAT YOU BELIEVE, WE HAVE BIGGER FISH TO FRY IN THIS COUNTRY THEN SOMEONES PERSONAL FAITH.
THERE IS A WAR GOING ON WITH AMERICANS BEING KILLED DAILY
LETS DISCUSS CHILDREN IN AMERICAN STARVING LETS DISCUSS WORKING CLASS PEOPLE THAT CAN NOT PAY THEIR MORTGAGE BECAUSE OF PRESENT LEADERSHIP WE HAVE. WHAT DOES OUR PRESENT LEADER BELIEVE ? EVIDENTLY IN WAR, DID HE LEARN THAT IN HIS CHURCH?
STOP BEING CLOSED MIND, GROW UP AND THINK SOMEWHERE AROUND THE EDGE OF THE BOX IF YOU CANT GET OUT OF IT...
You just can't fix STUPID.
I am a lifelong democrat who is saddened that this hypocritical figure could be our presidential nominee. Why is it that Wright can "Speak the truth." But when Ferraro or Governor Rendell speak facts, they are racist. I smell a double standard. Keep the heat on Obama Greta!!!!!!
Obama is anti-american. Would not wear his flag pin, Would not hold his hand over his heart to respect the national anthem and pledge of allegence, associates with a man who bombed government buildings.
Remember these are only the clips we have seen of his rev, as sen Obama has stated rev wright gives 3 sermins a day each sunday....multiply by 20 years....wow....imagin what is not on tape.
What else is Obama hiding?
I wish that Sen Obama would not put on the cloak of African-Americanism..............If he truly wanted to unite the country he would just be an American, not a hyphenated wanna be.....After all he is supposed to be half white.....He tries to appeal to everyone and that is not possible..........If he would wear the flag or honor the National Anthem, he would be more appealing to the patriotic elements of America...........(which seems to be shrinking because of political correctness.......Is this the best person the Dems can find?...........perhaps........
Lets not forget about Obama as an ILL senator. I'm from Chicago, I never even knew who the guy was. Voted present 130 times????
Congrats Obama, you are the most useless senator illinois ever had!
This is very scary. I'm not for Obama and I'm not for Hillary. Obama and his wife are both radical racists and he is running on the pretense of bringing the country together. Hillary doesn't speak the truth, never has. The thought of either one of them becoming president of this great nation scares me to death. Even though McCain is not a conservative Republican, he's definitely the best choice of the three. He appears to be honest, has scruples and will be a respected leader in the long run. I just hope a picks a conservative Republican as his Vice President.
[b]CONTINUED FOR NUMBER 649:PETE[/b]Some of you are probably saying or thinking exactly that, and quite frankly to most of us the idea of White slavery in early America is hard to accept, schooled as we are by the controlled media and the liberal-dominated public schools. But researcher and writer Michael Hoffman has recently come out with one of the most earth-shaking works of historical research in the last decade, entitled They Were White and They Were Slaves. This program is based on Mr. Hoffman’s original research into documents long hidden from the public eye and revealing a very different America from that presented in the controlled media.
(Following from They Were White and They Were Slaves)
There is a history of White people that has never been told in any coherent form, largely because most modern historians have, for reasons of politics or psychology, refused to recognize White slaves in America as just that.
Today, not a tear is shed for the sufferings of millions of our enslaved forefathers. 200 years of White slavery in America have been almost completely obliterated from the collective memory of the American people. Writer Elaine Kendall asks "Who wants to be reminded that half - perhaps as many as two-thirds - of the original American colonists came here, not of their own free will, but kidnapped, shanghaied, impressed, duped, beguiled, and yes, in chains - ?...we tend to gloss over it... we’d prefer to forget the whole sorry chapter."
A correct understanding of the authentic history of the enslavement of Whites in America could have profound consequences for the future. Most of the books on White labor in early America use words like "White indentured servitude," "White bondservants," White servants," etc. Few are now aware that the majority of these so-called "servants" were bound to a condition more properly called permanent chattel slavery unto death. The papers legally allowing the enslavement, called indentures, were often forged by kidnappers and press-gangs; and in cases where these papers did not literally specify a life term of servitude, the slave-owner had the legal right to unilaterally increase the length of the term on the flimsiest pretexts. The so-called "apprentices" or "indentured servants" had no say in the matter. These enslaved White people are, however, never called slaves by establishment academics and media spokesmen. To do so would destroy the myth of unique Black victimhood and universal White guilt.
Today, with the massive concentration of educational and media resources on the Black experience of slavery, the unspoken assumption has been that only Blacks have been enslaved to any degree or magnitude worthy of study or memorial. The historical record reveals that this is not the case, however. The word "slave" itself is derived from the word "slav," a reference to the Eastern European White people who, among others, were enslaved by their fellow Whites, by the Mongols, and by the Arabs over a period of many centuries.
According to Thomas Burton’s Parliamentary Diary 1656-1659, in 1659 the English parliament debated the practice of selling British Whites into slavery in the New World. In the debate, these Whites were referred to not as "indentured servants" but as "slaves."
In the Calendar of State Papers, Colonial Series, America and West Indies of 1701, we read of a protest over the "encouragement to the spiriting away of Englishmen without their consent and selling them for slaves, which hath been a practice very frequent and known by the name of kidnapping." In the British West Indies, plantation slavery was instituted as early as 1627. In Barbados by the 1640s there were an estimated 25,000 slaves, of whom 21,700 were White.
What a hypocrite to the Max.
I always admired Dr. King and love to hear his speeches, I had begun to feel the same for Obama, however the more I listened the more I heard the same old thing over and over; so he isn't the great speech maker I thought in the beginning. I think he is a two faced as they come. Obama did sit there for 20 years and listen and did not change churches, how convenient is it that he can put his lack of judgement in current present day perspective and use the excuse that Rev Wright has retired, and if he hadn't Obama would leave the church. Yeah Right!
I think with more time we can see more of the short commings of this man and his true feelings for America. He should also keep his wife out of the spotlight she isn't doing him any favors, and I would hate to think she might be the First Lady of this Great Nation.
I think that we all should honor Don Imus with a celebration.
If this seems unreal, It is just as unreal for churches to honor Rev. Wright.
Wrong is wrong in any color.

[EDUCATING NUMBER 649:PETE - continues ]
This document records that while White slaves were worked to death, as they cost next to nothing, there were Caribbean Indians brought from Guiana to help propagate native foodstuffs who were well-treated and received as free persons by the wealthy planters.
The Englishman William Eddis, after observing White slaves in America in the 1770s wrote: "Generally speaking, they groan beneath a worse than Egyptian bondage." Governor Sharpe of the Maryland colony compared the property interest of the planters in their White slaves, with the estate of an English farmer consisting of a "Multitude of Cattle."
Lay historian Col. A. B. Ellis, writing in the British Newspaper Argosy for May 6, 1893, said: "Few, but readers of old colonial state papers and records, are aware that between the years 1649 to 1690 a lively trade was carried on between England and the plantations, as the colonies were then called, [a trade] in political prisoners... they were sold at auction... for various terms of years, sometimes for life, as slaves."
Sir George Sandys’ 1618 plan for Virginia referred to bound Whites assigned to the treasurer’s office to "belong to said office forever." The service of Whites bound to Berkeley’s Hundred was deemed "perpetual."
Numerous documents from the seventeenth, eighteenth, and even nineteenth centuries reveal that these Whites in bondage certainly referred to themselves as slaves, and there are even records of Blacks referring to them as "White slaves." Did you know that the expression "kidnapping," (originally kid-nabbing) had its origin in the abduction of poor White children to be sold into factory slavery in Britain or plantation slavery in America? Did you know that the expression "spirited away" likewise originated with the White slavers, who were also called "spirits"?
The White slavery in America was but an extension of the White slavery in the mother country, Britain, where the legal form of contracted indentured servitude and apprenticeship was maintained as a spurious cover for plain and simple lifetime chattel slavery. Particularly shocking was the enslavement of White children for factory labor. Children were openly seized from orphanages and workhouses and placed in the factories.
In Brian Inglis’ Poverty and the Industrial Revolution we read: "Here then was a ready source of labor - and a very welcome one. The children were formally indentured as apprentices... What happened to them was nobody’s concern. A parish in London, having got rid of a batch of unwanted pauper children, was unlikely to interest itself in their subsequent fate... The term ’apprenticeship’ was in any case a misnomer...."
In Marjorie Cruikshank’s Children and Industry: "many employers imported child apprentices, parish orphans from workhouses far and near. Clearly, overseers of the poor were only too keen to get rid of the orphans... children were brought (to the factories) like ’cartloads of live lumber’ and abandoned to their fate... poor children, taken from workhouses or kidnapped in the streets of the metropolis, used to be brought down by... coach to Manchester and slid into a cellar in Mosley Street as if they had been stones or any other inanimate substance."
White children worked up to sixteen hours a day and during that period the doors were locked. Children - and most of the mill workers were children - were allowed out only to ’go to the necessary.’ In some factories it was forbidden to open the windows... The child ’apprentices’ who were on night shift might have to stay on it for as long as four or five years. They were lucky if they were given a half penny an hour.
This was labor without any breaks - unceasing labor. When the children fell asleep at the machines, they were lashed into wakefulness with a whip. If they arrived late to the factory, talked to another child, or committed some other infraction they were beaten with an iron bar known as a "billy-roller,"
Reverend Wright is a prophet--a false prophet... The tradition of biblical prophets is that they challenged the nation but pleaded with God to show mercy on the people. They never said "GD these people". They said, "God save them." For Dr. King to say, in the sermon he was working on before his death "Why America may go to Hell" is an appropriate and compassionate warning--not an angry denunciation that says, "GD America". The Reverend Wright issue is crucial to who Barak Obama is, because it relates both to Obama's spiritual root, his spiritual identity which determine his actions and his spiritual discernment and the judgement he claims to have and is trading on in his campaign.
I guess McCain is the best thing since slice bread... huh spider? You are right Mike you can't fix STUPID.
What a hypocrite to the Max.

801 Tina -------
Slavery happened 140 years ago. No one here was alive when some Africans captured other Africans and sold them to sailors to be sent around the world to many different countries to be sold as slaves. Pastor Wright needed to help people quit blaming the ancestors of todays white people, of whom only some were slave owners. Do Black people today owe any reperations to white people today whose great great grand parents lost their lives in the Civil war to free slaves?
happy to see what i have known for 50 years-and people were afraid to discuss because it was not policically correct come out in public !!!!!!!
I thought there was supposed to be a seperation of church and state?
The word hypocrite applies to Obama. "Barry" to use the name he went by during his 2 years at Occidental College, and while involved in drugs and more, is a skillful politician. If, God help us, he is elected we all will see the "back side of the moon". He believes what Rev. Wrong stands for and his bias will filter through everything he does. His wife revealed her bias based on 20 years of sermons from Rev. Wrong when she said it was the first time she was proud of the USA. She had all of the hate boiling in her based on being brainwashed by Rev. Wrong. She, with an education from Harvard and a $300K job was never proud that she could rise to that level in a short time. That should make her proud of the USA, not the fact her husband is a serious contender for the Presidency based on being a skillful politian and liar. What a pair of hypocrites. Vote against Barry and Hillary in November!
Clearly Obama has to distance himself from the soundbite. Obama has made a mistake though by distancing himself from Rev. Wright. I would call it a political reaction rather than a hypocritical act. What does worry me is all the talk of context (with respect to the sermons) with no real effort to concentrate on the context. Clearly this issue has not been justly handled by the media. Play the sermon in its entirety. Rev. Wright is a true American and should be praised for speaking the truth but also deserves criticism for not taking the time to analyse where his sermons could be used to disenfanchise himself and his congregation from others.
Rev. Wright....do your former congregation and Barack a favor... Rewright your critiqued sermons as you believe Obama and John McCain would appreciate them. When making references to US world activities which have resulted in negativity toward America...please give some examples...legitimate examples so as to prove your point,
Barack... I donated $25 to your campaign because I believe you can inspire and affect change. I'd love to have dinner with you but my $25 came before you offered dinner.
I would ask you at dinner why all other subjects you have discussed you appear to be level headed and able to discuss them without a feeling of uneasiness...yet the Rev. Wright debacle seems to make you appear uneasy.
Do you have a racially based agenda as president of the United States?
I never trusted Obama from day one. He has hidden words in all of his speeches. I could never trust any canidate who has no problem with any preacher who has bad language in the house of God. Obama is protecting this person and I feel Obama has the same sentiments as Wright. So help us God if he becomes our President.
Wright, right, not!
Lets face it Obama is desperately trying to wiggle out of the Rev. Wright bomb and everytime he opens his mouth he digs himself in deeper. The American public has Obama's number he is just not honest.
I like Obama; he is still not that mature in a lot of his sayings and decisions. Give him 3-5 more years and he will be a class act.
The black churches have been culprits in the angry sentiment the black man carries in their heart, they are responsible with such inflammatory words to negatively charge the weak and misfortunate that they rebel in such a way that results in this large incarcerated black community in our jails.
It is a shame and irresponsible to inflame hatred, and always bringing up the sad past instead of channeling this energy from the pulpit to bring people together.
Preachers forgot that Christianity is love and understanding, to turn the other cheek, to forgive and love each other and care for one another.
We have the same thing here in Mansfield OH; a preacher became our superintendent of schools, and guess what he did? He brought those same black white issues out, dividing the community that had no significant racial issues.
Divide and conquer seems to be the motto, and the preacher bask in this attention and the weak masses follows and cheers.
It is SAD!
[[[[Pete # 649 for easier reading visit the following URL and please, please educate yourself. Figure out the fact that you don't hear whites whining and complaining about their ancestors, sir. Also figure out that the bad that our ancestors had to face and endure, allows us to have the luxuries we are blessed with today. You should be thanking "your" ancestors daily for selling themselves to slavery to give YOU a better life]]] KNOWLEDGE IS POWER!

The Truth About Slavery
from the American Dissident Voices
he will say anything you want to here. he stands for nothing (i guess thats his change) which gives him the ability to say anything(which sounds good). at some point we have to admit he is nothing short of a liar, its sad he's running for president
Tina~ You Go Girl~
Thanks for the info great history to know....
If 787 was running for president I would vote for him/her.......I feel the same way
When Obama was first asked (Major Garrett) had said he had NO knowledge of what Wright said. When pressed a few days later Obama said he heard some of it but did not agree with it but still stood by his pastor and would not leave his church. Then on the View he said if Pastor Wright had not retired Obama would have left the church. It is inconcievable that he could attedn this church for 20 years and be clueless about Pastor Wright's sermons and writing. If he truly was that close to the Pastor for 20 years and did not know how he felt about the U.S. and white people perhaps that shows a lack of judgement in Obama. Or was it expedient early in Obamas career to attend this type of church - that was probably a good power base to get started in politics - but came back to haunt Obama on the national scene. Obama is smooth and a good speaker BUT it is hard to retionalize away the Pastor Wright issue. No one should judge Obama by what Pastor Wright said (shich was awful) BUT it is fair to judge Obama for not distancing himself from such hateful speech. Although I totally disagree with Obamas far left political stance and could never vote for him I used to feel he was a good person who showed a Black could be elected and most Americans would vote for a Black that shared their poitical views. After the Wright revalations I have so amny doubts about Obama thatI would not be able to vote for him even if he was a moderate.

What are you talking about LANUGO?? I was correcting Pete on his cry about poor me, my ancestors were slaves bull kaka. Read before you direct comments. I mean really.
Not only does Obama hate America he thinks we're stupid.
Sen. Obama uses a wait and see approach. He changes his stance needed to resolve the negative public opinion. Unfortunately, he is seems to be changing his view and it is looking like he is not telling the truth. He goes from I did not know statement to the I was not aware of all of the racist views of Rev. Wright. From I will not disown Rev. Wright to I would have left the Church. This conflicts to his demanding the firing of Don Imus for his racist views.
Gary,
Killeen, Texas
I find Mr. Obama's comments to be hypocritical. He has one set of rules for his friends and then anoher set for those that are against him and his friends. Racisms goes both ways. Whether it is between Whites against Blacks; Blacks against Whites; Hispanics Whites; Blacks agianst Hispanics or any combination therein and including others not mentioned. Its nasty, hateful, divisive and has no place in America. America was always supposed to be a place for ALL people to live in harmony and to have the opportunity "to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness." A place where "All men are created equal."
Why is it OK to call your church a BLACK church? If the white said the WHITE churches we would be dragged down the carpet and hung out to dry. What gives the blacks the right to do exactly what they want. They definitely want to be separate from the whites! Also Obama is two faced and not trustworthy at all. I have amny Black friends as well as Whites, but we united. This Black church is not white friendly!
Greta I always thought that you were fair, but you are beating a dead horse,
you have join the mob with the rest of the world against one man with an opinion that you disagree with. The Rev. Wright is not running for President. If we talked about all the Pastors of politicians it would not get any attention at all.Starting with the catholics, mormans, baptist, and etc.I suppose all the politicians would be running out the door, including Bill and Hillary Clinton. We all have skeletons in our closets including you, but we are not running for President of the United States.I doubt if this will get any attention on your show but the truth does hurt when you are not being fair. I wish Senator Obama and Senator Clinton the best. May the best person win.
Americans just be urself all u saying Obama is a hypocrate, u all are worst than him, this is just a jelousy. it will not help this country condeming someone. So many pastors have said things worst than what Rev WRIGHT said. But this is just ringing bell on ur heads cause Obama is running for President and attends the church. sorry i don't think all this will change peoples mind on whom they have interest in votng for. Lets think of how to vote for a person that will make this country what it was in 15 years back, and no think of how to accuse one of been hypocratic.
How can you go to the same church for twenty years and not hear what your preacher was saying? If Obama went and heard but continued to attend this church, then he is obviously a racist just like his preacher. Is it true that he started off by going to a radical muslim school? The people that would like to destroy this country would love for this guy to win the presidency.
why can't a white person say what they want and no one claims it was taken out of context. But just as sure as a black person says something that is rachael it is taken out of context. Seems to me the blacks want let the past die not the whites .
Paula
Greta i think that you keep asking bout Pastor Wright cause you are trying to sway the voters not to vote for Obama but for Hilllary. Its has been dealt with whyh are you continuing ask Obama these questions and talk show host if you are not trying to actually sway the people. Leave it alone already. I think you just don't want Obama in the WH because of his color. I know the Clintons have done far worse, what about the witch she was taking advice from when her husband was in Office during the ordeal woth Monica. Whites say things more sinnister than Wright about blacks all the time and you know this, but whites son't want blacks to talk about them.
Tina, Do some black people today owe any reperations to some white people today because some of todays white people's great great grand parents lost their lives in the Civil war fighting to free the slaves?
He says the rev's "sound bites" weren't the norm, but if you pay attention to the reaction of the congregation that doesn't fly. If my pastor said anything remotely close to the hateful things he did, everyone in the pews would be in shock. However, Mr. Obama's church cheered and even had the audacity to raise their hands and praise these comments. To me the problem is not only the rev but the church itself. I am a Democrat, but I refuse to be any part of leaving my 3 "racially diverse" children and my country in the hands of any person who does not love the United States of America and ALL of it's people. My vote will go to McCain if he gets the nomination.
HAHA! Thanks Steve. You gave me a good laugh. Very funny. This is not about ethnicity it is about RIGHT AND WRONG. There should be NO DOUBLE STANDARDS!!!

=========== you are the real hate filled racist.
I have been shocked to hear from so many leaders of Black Churches, stating that all black Churches preach the same messages. I am White and know and like many blacks, and sure hope that the Churches here in the mid-west don't do the same. I have always thought how unfair it is that Blacks have all black Colleges, Beauty pageants and other things for Blacks only. I just figured it was some of Al {not so Sharp} Sharpton and Jesse { hate the whites} Jackson pushing all that stuff. AND Greta I am ashamed of you making that statement tonight that you thought Don Imus should have been fired, That just shows how much that you don't know, he and his program did more to raise money for different Charities and under privileged children than any other program I have ever watched, He was always having guests to make people aware of different diseases, especially in children, and he donated money to these causes and challenged his guests to do the same, not to mention his Imus Ranch for children. It was unfortunate that he said what he did, but he apologized for it and should have been forgiven if it wasn't for the Blacks like Obama and some others calling for him to be fired. There was many people who liked to watch his program, all you had to do was turn him off, We, his fans, weren't given that choice but people like you decided to ruin his career and stop the good he does for his fellow man. I also think most of the news media has given Obama free coverage and favored him over Hillary " GO HILLARY" , Don't drop out!!!!!!!! The same way you { meaning the News Media } backed MaCain and Huckabee and gave them free press over Romney and encouraged them cutting him down and then too late realized he was probably the best choice for and honest moral man to run for President. All I can say if Obama gets in as President " GOD HELP US"
Greta, I am an Independent voter and I think that looking at Sen. Obama comments, my vote will be going to Sen. Clinton. I hope in God that she does not drop out, so I have a candidate to vote for.
ALL black people are NOT supporting Obama...a majority, perhaps..but NOT ALL of us. It doesn't make a difference to me what color a person is...it is the content of their character ...and character has no color. It is their ability as I perceive their capability & their past record & associations & their acts, not just their words. I as a black female am NOT looking for the first black person nor first female to be President---what's important is what is within the person, not their outer coloring or gender. I am a registered Republican, and I vote for the person who most closely aligns themselves biblically. Huckabee lost, so I will vote for McCain. Everyone, please keep blogging about Obama so we can get the word out -- the media idolizes him & will never do their job as it relates to him. I have to say, I'd even rather Hillary won if McCain didnt get it --but NOT OBAMA -- He is not good for this country.
Not realizing that my website would be posted I entered it where asked. This is the first time I have entered a comment . It won't happened again... I was't trying to get business by posting it... Actually I am retiring but left it up because I am proud of it. Again I am sorry...
RE: 403 Needs to know .......... He was catholic grew up in Catholic schooling.
Now, I have to point out something as a fact that just because someone is or was or may be a MUSLIM; DOES NOT and i repeat DOES NOT entitle anyone to talk down upon them, it is a religion and a person is just the same as this Rev. Wright character, being a bigot and blindsided by the facts and truth that one does not know about.
Just because our eyes have been OPENED from the Terrorists attacks and their religion claims to be Muslim DOES NOT mean that all Muslims are bad and are subjected to be scrutinized as being a terrorist.
I am a Christian and in years of growing up through these years people tend to forget that the real true meaning of the christianity faith lies in the faith and of the love for each other....
Making unfactual comments towards Sen. Obama, we as Christians should not lower ourselves to such levels but MORE importantly use Substance against our Political Foes..... Taxation, Socialized Medicine, withdrawing troops unsecure borders....... THESE are far more damaging to us as a NATION than the religion of a possible candidate for presidency of the United States!... So what if he's Black and so what if Hillary is a woman these are NOT SUBSTANTIAL ISSUES WE SHOULD BE ARGUEING ABOUT!
TINA ,,,,, Do some black people today owe any reperations to some white people today because some of todays white people's great great grand parents lost their lives in the Civil war fighting to free the slaves?
I believe Obama is putting on an act. I think Obama is sneaky looking: one who does things in a mean, sly and underhand way, to act with sly deceit. I would not vote for Obama if my life depended on it. Obama thinks it's OK because his pastor retired, and everything should just go away, or that takes care of the problem. I've been a Christian for many year's and if my Pastor would preach like Obama's pastor I would walk out right away!!!!!!!!!! I believe Obama knew all about what his pastor was preaching, and just hoped it would ever come out. We don't know Obama that well, and I say there is problem a lot more to come out, before the whole voting is over.
I wonder where the Democratic party "statesmen" are. Are they not troubled by Obama's relationship with Wright? If the Democratic party is split apart by nominating Obama, it will be for good reason. The hypocrisy is frightening.
When someone indures trauma of some sort weather it be rap, abuse, kidnapping, or a sighting of murder the logical thing for them to do is go through therapy. The same thing with slavery both master and slave should have gone through therapy for healing. Master needs therapy so that they might understand that their actions were inappropriate and not normal. Slaves need therapy to understand that what they endured was inappropriate and not normal. It's easy to write off slavery and its effects when you are the majority. It doesn't effect your life in no way. However when you have to live as the minority educated and well off, and still having to fight the stereotypes. We can't write it off as easy. The bully never remember who he abused as a child. But the child that was bullied remembers the bully.
Greta, this may be hearsay but, i have a friend who has a friend that her family has known obama for many years. he is not what you see. he practices his muslam religion and if elected president all hell will break loose. hope this is not true, but if it is maybe you can find out.
Let's not forget Sen. Obama's racist remark explaining his grandmother is a "typical white person". When a white person makes the remark "you people" it is considered a racist remark. What do you mean by "you people"?
WELL DO THEY?? ============
Please educate me. I have no clue what the word "reperations" means, I have never heard of it and I am not ashamed to admit it. But judging by the context it is used I can tell you that the blacks owe nothing to the whites because of what our ancestors did or didn't do. Nor do any of us owe each other for what our ancestors did. We should be thankful that sacrifices were made by them as it has given all of us the opportunities we have today.
ANYONE WHO CAN'T SEE THAT WRIGHTS COMMENTS WERE AS RACIST AND HATE FILLED AS ANYTHING ANY WHITE HAS EVER SAID IS A PEA BRAINED MORON. I AM 63 YEARS OLD AND I HAVE NEVER HEARD ANY PREACHER USE THAT KIND OF VILE LANGUAGE FROM THE PULPIT. IT IS SHAMEFUL, DISGRACEFUL AND I DO NOT BELIEVE THAT WRIGHT IS A CHRISTIAN ANY MORE THAN HE IS THE MAN IN THE MOON. HE AND OBAMA ARE BOTH WOLVES IN SHEEPS CLOTHING.
I BELIEVE THAT HE, ALONG WITH OBAMA ARE MUSLIMS. WHY ELSE WOULD EITHER ONE OF THEM HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE LIKES OF LOUIS FARAKAN? ("WHAT HAS LIGHT TO DO WITH DARKNESS...") HE IS FOOLING ALL THE BLACK AMERICANS. THE TRUTH IS THAT OBAMA IS 50% WHITE, 40% ARAB AND 10% BLACK. HE WAS RAISED MUSLIM. THE KORAN TEACHES THAT ANYONE OTHER THAN MUSLIMS (ESPECIALLY CHRISTIANS & JEWS) SHOULD BE PUT TO DEATH. THIS WHOLE THING IS A PLOY TO GET OBAMA INTO THE HIGHEST OFFICE IN THE UNITED STATES. WHAT BETTER WAY TO DESTROY US THAN FROM THE TOP.
THIS MAN IS AS DANGEROUS AS HITLER WAS. HE HAS SEDUCED THE PEOPLE WITH WORDS AND THEY ARE FOLLOWING HIM LIKE SHEEP TO THE SLAUGHTER. HE SHOULD NEVER BE ALLOWED TO BE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. YOU PEOPLE HAD BETTER WAKE UP BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE.
Charlie, You could vote for Clinton or Hugo Chavez, or Castro or any communist like Clinton if you are tired of living in a free society.
Inactivity, rope-a-doping and hiding when confronted by problems, tells me a great deal about a persons character...
There is a difference between being a man and running away from the scandal of this 20+ year association and indoctrination by his RACIST spititual leader. BIG difference!!! Sitting and listening to HATE speach for 20+ years is indoctrination - not toleration of a RACIST opinion. Hitler corrupted an entire nation in less time, Osamabama is an willing pupil of this racist!!!
Sitting @ the pews listening to the Racist Wright also tells me that this man is spineless and does not have the moral courage to either engage Racist Wright or to part ways - Oprah did and parted ways with the Racist Wright Indoctrination Center, which tells me she has courage to call a SPADE a SPADE - and BALLS, qualities that lack in Osamabama's character!!!
It proves to me that this spineless candidate is no more equiped to lead this country than my pet squid!!! Osamabama is a closet RACIST!!!
Hypocrisy, definitely!! Obama, actions of the past and present, brand him not only a hypocrit, but as a liar as well!! Wright, and more importantly Obama, are both cut from the same fabric and dangerous and divisive to anyone who listens to anything either has to say. It is past time we stop walking on egg shells around the negro population!! Hip Hop only serves to verify the lack of moral fabric in the black community. Most younger blacks do not even speak the english language properly but make up their own words. The term "HO" is a black term, not white. If blacks wish to live in this country, they too must abide by the laws and traditions of America rather than some dreamed up idea of African ways. If they wish to live in Africa, they can move! Negros are no more entitled than anyone else in this country! It is time for all Americans to advise ANY ethnic group to act American. Equal? Yes. Entitled or "special"? NO! Love it or leave it!!
ALL black people are NOT supporting Obama...a majority, perhaps..but NOT ALL of us. It doesn't make a difference to me what color a person is...it is the content of their character ...and character has no color. It is their ability as I perceive their capability & their past record & associations & their acts, not just their words. I as a black female am NOT looking for the first black person nor first female to be President---what's important is what is within the person, not their outer coloring or gender. I am a registered Republican, and I vote for the person who most closely aligns themselves biblically. Huckabee lost, so I will vote for McCain. Everyone, please keep blogging about Obama so we can get the word out -- the media idolizes him & will never do their job as it relates to him. I have to say, I'd even rather Hillary won if McCain didnt get it --but NOT OBAMA -- He is not good for this country.

Im am sick of hearing that Hillary is going to steal the presidency from obama, he is not even going to win. His lies are barely comming out, and im sure there are tons more, I know its just begining, and as far as his wife goes, it seems like she shares rev. wright views of america. Obama reminds me of that cyintha mequenzy(im sure I spelled that wrong), but if here were to get elected, you would see a storm of racist, antiamericans, by his side in the white house, and everything will be for the blacks. I am also tired of this racist stuff, I mean come on black people, you have all the same opportunities and anyone else, and yall need to stop blaming america, I am black and have never experienced any racist remarks, and Im 28 years old, and by mistake I voted for Obama, wish will not happen again, its all about Hillary now, I cant belived I was fooled. Another thing, I go to a black church, and have never experienced anything like in that trinity church. Why are all these black reverns trying to fool us, saying that Wright is correct and does his reasearch, I mean come on, how stupid do you think americans are. I know Obama is done and he is going to use the race card and say it was stolen from him. The race still has a long way to go, and he will loose the popular vote, and all of americans trust, except from the crazy black people who belive in that stuff for some brainwashing reason. How many lies is Obama going to make, geeze every time I see him on tv I have to turn the channel before I hear him speak, he makes me so sick and stupid for beliving in him and his words. He also needs to stop stealing Hillarys plans and get his own. Perhaps he should just drop out now and save some embarassement and some dignity, and spare his children from being labeled racist and antiamericans. I just cant wait till the real Obama is exposed completely, cause I know he is hiding more serious stuff that will be exposed soon, and he knows it. Hillary 08 yes we will
Both Hillary and Obama are first class liars. They are so low that they could crawl under the belly of a snake. Their thinking is so crooked with all the B.S. they puke out, they both could sleep in a grain auger and you may as well throw Preacher Wright in with them with all his hate. Being that Wright is an ex member of the Marine Corps it must be an insult to all the other members that have served their country so bravely. He has crawled into his fox hole and is too chicken to come out and face the fire. What a pity.
I am starting to think that you show hosts are suffering from a low learning curve. What part of religion and politics should be separate in the first place don't you understand. Is your misconception really because you have a hidden agenda to destroy Obama?
Here is a link to an article that points to the double standard deception that is being perpetrated by your network and possibly others on other networks. The polls have shown that a majority of the American public feel it is not Obama's responsibility what his pastor/s says/say. For you to keep this going is nothing more than a pure deception for the 5 or 10% lemmings who usually follow your talking points like those who follow Rush Limbaugh.
Since you won't play fair, others will like the author of this article. Frank Schaeffer: Obama's Minister Committed "Treason" But When My Father Said the Same Thing He Was a Republican Hero -
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/frank-schaeffer/obamas-minister-committe_b_91774.html
And for the record, I am not too fond of any of the candidates. Obama just so happens to be my least favorite. I think America is headed down a far worse path than we have been treading and it's time to stop talking and actually do something other than sing a pretty song for the popular vote.
I honestly just wish ALL people would quit yelling "racism" and start using that energy for something positive. Racism exists, it will most likely always exist ... but let the ignorant be ignorant ... we do not have stoop to their level. Because sure as we do, they will beat us with experience.
Sharpton and Jackson were making claims for government money payments, (reperations), to be paid to today's black people for what their ancestors went through during slavery. I was just interested if you thought white people who lost family members freeing slaves, deserved anything. Obviously, Sharpton and Jackson never brought up that part.
He is lying in hopes that the media will forget about this soon enough. It is a real testament to his lack of judgment and credibility. This needs to be explored fully. He should not be let off the hook - that has already happened too much in this nomination process.
I consider myself an independent voter. I never planned to vote for Clinton. I am not particularly impressed with McCain. When the campaigns first started I was pretty impressed with Obama. I don't think any of them have been any too honest. Yes, I think sometimes their words are taken too literally but the negatives keep piling up on Obama. I was personally shocked by Mrs. Obama's remark about just "now" being proud of her country. Any of these Obama incidents taken alone might not seem lethal but when they keep occuring it all adds up.
Honestly, I don't think either party has a "good" choice in this election. It's not a matter of race or gender because if Condi Rice were running I would vote for her and she is both black and a woman. I just think American needs a good, honest and qualified candidate. Not sure that will ever be available. I've been waiting for that for 20 years!
After reading many of the comments on Obama I have only one thing to say" I hope you are not christians because if you are you're a bunch of hypocrits!!"
People seem to either be unaware of the social reality or just ignoring the realism of reality. A good example for what's going on with Obama is the King James version of the bible. Not every verse written in it is one to agree upon, but we do not burn or trash the bible. There's a lot of information in there which is great for the morals of man. An individual has to be smart enough to seperate the good from the bad. We all have friends, family members, employers, employees, political figures, etc... who say or do things that we have opposing thoughts and feelings about. Many do not agree with every statement expressed on the news, but we continue to watch while using our better judgment.
Obama and Rev. Wright are two different individuals. When the similarity of Rev. Wright's words begin rolling off of the tongue of Obama, that's when he should be held accountable. Until then, recognize him as an individual.
There are typical men, typical women, typical blacks, typical asians, typical whites, typical elderly people, typical young people, etc..., but there are evolutionary individuals in each group. To judge before collecting enough of the information to make a well-informed opinion is a sure sign that there is a higher level of evolution needed to be strived for. Don't be the person becoming choked by the smoke of trail blazers.

Tina~ You Go Girl~ Thanks for the info great history to know....
=========================
=========================
=========================
Thank you Sue! Glad someone appreciated that!! :-)
Obama will win!!! Dont be scared America be prepared. Change is coming. As a matter of fact it's here!!!
Obama Hussin is a scary person 20 years at a church but doesn't know what his teacher=Pastor said? I will never believe that!! and any one that does is a moron.
Obama Hussin is a lair and a resist but yet if we the people call him out on it we are the bad guys NO we are not.
Staying at a so called church for 20 years being close friends says he agreed to the statements made.
I will never vote for a resist Black or white.
It is also sad to find out there are more so called churches like Obama's that teach people to hate and be resist.
Then to see them say proudly yes we think just like the pastor we have for years, and you white people just never know about it? Yes a lot of white people never did and why would that be ? Because they go to real church's of god that teach love not hate and so does a lot of Black people.
They learn the truth about gods word and not to be resist! Because it's wrong!
It does state in the Holy Bible that a lot of people will be blind and not see the truth.
Hate that's NOT of Jesus at all that's not a church of God it is a church of Satin.
"The lack of knowledge will destroy my people"and that so called pastor =teacher is Not teaching god word but teaching hate satins word.
No one can try to justify that regardless what they say or claim.
The truth is in the word I pray they read it.
Concerned American
First of all how can this man unite American when he will not pledge to the American flag. No one with those views should be allowed to run for president let alone be elected by a people who support that flag. He won't even use the
Bible to swear in & yet he claims to be a Christian.
When exactly did this minister retire, just recently to get out of the new or was
it weeks before the election?
I told my children when they were little that two wrongs don't make a right. Imus was wrong and so is Obama Rev. It makes me very sad as I did teach my children not to hate. I asked them if they got to chose the color of their skin. They said no. I told them that was Gods choise and he loves us all. I have left churchs for less than what his Rev said. I have not wanted to be part of church who were clickis because people didn't go to the right schools or live in the right city. Even after leaving that church I still knew about what the pastor said because I talked to friends that still went there. I alway talk to friends about the sermons that I hear. Jesus is about love not hate.
Edward-------
But, at least no one here is as big a hypocrit as Obama, or you.
Hey Dan 859, I believe what you heard:
Obama the "patriot": would not wear a U.S. flag lapel pin; would not pledge allegiance to our flag; has a wife who has never been proud of our country; has a spiritual advisor who advises God to damn America. What is patriotic about any of this?" Quote from Bob. Well put. I also wonder why he isn't asked about this behavior. Is Obama a muslim in the closet? A true muslim would not be able to pledge allegience to anything but allah, wouldn't be able to where a pin of our flag, wouldn't have a wife proud of America, would follow a spiritual adviser that damns America. Also his sicko church congragation working themselves into a demonic looking frenzy while their not job leader is "God damning America" It also must be noted that this apostic church awarded Louis Farrakan an achievement award. If God forbid Hussien Obama is elected pres there will be muslims all over the world dancing in the streets,giving candies, and making those disgusting noises with their tongues in celebration of the largest scam/achievement in their world conquest agenda. I hope the blind sheeple in America wake up to what is really going on before we have the flag of islam flying over the white house. Also as stated Obama will surrender to the terroists and pull our troops out of Irac and Afganistan in the largest disgrace this country has ever had. Think think think before you vote.
Okay, Thanks for explaining. I would also like to add that I think that word even sounds made up and stupid. It's like the time I heard a man call an extension cord, a "CONSTENTIONAL" cord. lol
Anyway, to answer YOUR question. NO! I do not think anything of the sort should happen for the whites nor the blacks. I think our freedom and right to educate ourselves and become something productive in society is payment enough. ----------------------------------------------------------------------
I think if anyone deserves any kind of compensation or money, we should be giving it to the Indians. Why don't we ever see them protesting on television? I think they have far more to complain about than any black/white person alive today.
879.By: OBAMA WILL NOT LOSE | Mar 29, 01:59
Obama will win!!! Dont be scared America be prepared. Change is coming. As a matter of fact it's here!!!
----------------------------------------------------------------- I think you meant -- Obama will NOT win!!! Be VERY scared America be prepared. Change is coming, and IT IS NOT FOR THE BETTER. As a matter of fact if Obama get in, WE ARE SCREWED!!!
Greta i bet if u were the president of this nation u will do worst than all. let the sleeping dog lie. and stop that hatred of urs.
first of all don imus call them black girls "nappy headed hoes" which was a lie and that statement was intended to be racist. Rev. wright was talking about how america don't care about the black community which i think is true. Black people didn't create racism, neither did black people sale other human being's to make them work all day long while they rape the women. It's very sad to me how everything is getting turned around as if it never happen. we should give black people what america promise, 40 acres in a mule but I guest since they black we don't care. Black people spend more money in america, maybe thats why america shouldn't help too many of them get business loans huh? The truth hurts. I'm a republican but i don't agree with john mc cain, I agree with Obama. thats why i will vote for obama. And the more America dis credit black people like you don't owe them nothing, then the more we need Obama in office. America making Obama look like a Liar, news flash yall every president thats serve this country lied about more important things. This sickens me the way the media is attacking Obama. I feel it will be alot of trouble for america to not vote for him and then if he get in office, we just hope in pray nothing happens too him because it will be wars in america but the problem woundn't be Bin Laden any more, it will be each other.
thanks for reading. And yes I'm black..... give me my 40 acres then we even.
Thank you! Thank you! Sharon in Ohio!! A voice of reason. Those were the thoughts of my husband and I, precisely!!!
I forgot to mention this and was wondering if anyone else had these thoughts.
The good Rev. said these words "G.... D...... America" I take offense at that statement, as this is a minister and he used the name of the Lord in vain. To break an actual commandant from the pulpit is pretty bad. As teachers/ministers are held to a higher reponsibility because they influnce other people with their actions. How can he call himself a minister. Also I thought the looks on some of the people in the choir behind him look rather shocked at some of the statements he made.
887--- Yeah Greta, how dare you tell the truth about the racist, liar Obama. You are a terrible person for telling the truth. Shame on you. You should know by now that Democrats HATE TRUTH. Truth always hurts Democrats.
A charlatan; a phraud; a phony!!! skip
886, I said it right. You stop hating it not good for you. Obama will not lose!
And one more thing.... I have been a member of my church for 16 years, and as with most of us and our busy schedules we miss a few days - but my fellow parishioners tell me what is going on and what "items" of interest were said, in sermons or church activities are relevant. To clain "innocence, Osamabama insults the intelligence of all amoebas! Americans can do better than this and we should kick this racist candidate and his "mentor" to the curb!
Obama, Jessie Jackson, Al Sharpton....all self-proclaimed defenders of righteousness--now, their true hatred of white america exposed...watch them stutter...one excuse after another..pathetic! In 1990 it took Oprah seconds to realize the hatred coming from Rev. Wright's pulpit & she couldn't get her fanny out of that pew fast enough..only to receive harsh verbal attacks from Wright..with Obama in the congregation lending credibility to such appalling attacks...sounds like he threw Oprah under the bus with his grandmother...no doubt the voters should throw Obama under the bus......
Anyone interested in contacting the Superdelegates, the web site is http://www.delegatehub.com/contact -----anyone wanting to urge FL and MI's votes to be counted website is http://democrats.org/contact.html
Let's make our voices heard!!
OBAMA HUESSIN (NAMED AFTER SADDAM HUESSIN), IS A MUSLIM. HE HAS A HIDDEN AGENDA THAT THE U.S. DOESN'T KNOW ABOUT, AND I FEEL SORRY FOR US. WE ARE SO DEAF AND BLIND!! THE MUSLIMS WANT TO TAKE AMERICA DOWN, AND IF THEY HAD SOMEONE IN THE WHITE HOUSE, THEN THEY CAN TEAR US APART FROM THE INSIDE OUT!!! AMERICA NEEDS TO TAKE CARE OF AMERICA!!! FORGET ABOUT RESPECTING OTHER RELIGIONS!! THEY WANT TO KILL US ALL!!! DON'T YOU EVER FORGET ABOUT 9-11!! THOSE ARE OBAMA'S PEOPLE THAT KILLED ALMOST 4,000 AMERICANS!!! WE WILL NEVER FORGET!!!

886, I said it right. You stop hating it not good for you. Obama will not lose!
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- When you say ,"you stop hating", you must be talking to Obama and Wright, correct? PS Obama is finished ... since his big lying, racist blunders, he is now no better than raw sewage.
I am glad to see that approximately 75% of respondents see Obama as the phony I have always said he was . . .by the way. I am not a racist white male. I am a college educated (18+ years) African American male supporting Hillary!
I read Sebastain's comments & could not help mentioning that yes black's did
help catch other blacks in, Africia, to be sold as slaves. And they did it for personal gain--MONEY! Read your history or just watch Roots!

FIRST, that is the poorest use of grammar I have ever read from someone who is claiming people OWE him soley based on the color of his skin and the fact that he is alive. SECOND, Imus was wrong but he most certainly was not a preacher either, now was he? So it's not like he was in a position of corrupting/brainwashing a congregation of "Christian" minds three times a week. Embedding hate/racism into them within the walls of a Church. THIRD, here is a REALITY CHECK I will be happy to write you ... nobody OWES you anything, much less land. You are no better than anyone else in this world. You get what you work for. It's plain and simple. Let me ask you a simple question ... do you or anyone you are related to collect food stamps, welfare or SSI/disability even though they are capable of getting a better education or a better job? Can you answer this honestly? I am very curious to know. Oh and may you please get it in your head that your ancestors SOLD themselves to slavery. Can you name anyone in your family that was a slave?
Zendar - 899 ------------- If you are an educated person of voting age, why would possibly vote for a habitual liar, socialist, power hungry at the expense of all else, vulture like Hillary"
Anyone watch Bill Maher tonight?
He made a gaf about what Hillery said and the poll numbers.
Well I guess he just mis-spoke!!! Way to go Bill !!!
Thank you Greta. You give me wonderful insomnia. I really do have to say that because had it not been for this poll I would have been asleep three hours ago! LOL
Greta,I'm tired of your rascist remarks, or sound-bites that you and Hannity play on the air about Senator Obama, he was great at The View, Ms Walter and the crew was very nice, in fact one of the host decide to vote for Obama at the show,she was going to vote for Hillary. Obama is a very good man, and those who is scared of him is sooo unreal, people who is negative about changes is pretty sad. Obama is going to be The President of the United State, my son is in Iraq for the third time, I want him and all the other fellow soldiers .to come home. My son and other soldiers going to vote for Obama.
GO OBAMA

#888. You should seriously consider a technical report writing class. Your spelling is atrocious and your grammar pathetic. English is not my native language, but I can assure you, I write it far more eloquently than you ever could. Have you ever been to Africa? (It's a continent by the way!) I doubt it. I have. I even lived there. Spend some time there, learn to spell, and then come back to CLAIM your 40 acres!
Julie, --------- Why would you want to vote for an Anti American, bigoted, racist, lying pile of pig dung like Obama? It make no sense. Why would you want terrorists to come to America and start killing more civilians? WISE UP !!!
Greta,I'm tired of your rascist remarks, or sound-bites that you and Hannity play on the air about Senator Obama, he was great at The View, Ms Walter and the crew was very nice, in fact one of the host decide to vote for Obama at the show,she was going to vote for Hillary. Obama is a very good man, and those who is scared of him is sooo unreal, people who is negative about changes is pretty sad. Obama is going to be The President of the United State, my son is in Iraq for the third time, I want him and all the other fellow soldiers .to come home. My son and other soldiers going to vote for Obama.
GO OBAMA
Oh boy and Yo Baba, well said! Enough of this crap. Gimme gimme gimme.....
Thank you yo baba!! My thoughts exactly, as my post stated (#901).
Now wait ... I graduated highschool and college. I am a medical professional. I own my own home. I have never collected medicaid, welfare or any other form of government assistance. I feel like I contribute to society in a positive way, yet I am not sitting here saying/claiming anyone owes me anything nor will I start. My husband and I work hard for what we have and we will continue to work our rears off for everything we want. I have too much PRIDE in myself to sit and hold my hand out waiting on someone to spoon-feed me and mooch off of the system crying "YOU OWE ME!!". ========

While it is actually a funny post, I really want to know what Sebastain would do with 40 acres of land anyway. Please don't tell me you would build Churches.

ALL black people are NOT supporting Obama...a majority, perhaps..but NOT ALL of us. It doesn't make a difference to me what color a person is...it is the content of their character ...and character has no color. It is their ability as I perceive their capability & their past record & associations & their acts, not just their words. I as a black female am NOT looking for the first black person nor first female to be President---what's important is what is within the person, not their outer coloring or gender. I am a registered Republican, and I vote for the person who most closely aligns themselves biblically. Huckabee lost, so I will vote for McCain. Everyone, please keep blogging about Obama so we can get the word out -- the media idolizes him & will never do their job as it relates to him. I have to say, I'd even rather Hillary won if McCain didnt get it --but NOT OBAMA -- He is not good for this country.
What really annoys me is stupid black republicans who pretend they really belong. Do YOU for one moment really think that the republicans really care about you? NO! They don't even care about the mass majority of whites in this country as is obvious with the programs they pass bills for. Look at what McCain said about the mortgage crisis! They only care about rich white people!
As far as the misconception black republicans have about Lincoln, he only freed the slaves to save the union. It was not for the sake of the slaves, so get over it already.
As far as the farse about Christian views, those are false too. This was evidenced by the game they played on the religious right wing this past election. You can vote for McCain if you want, but you'll be fooling yourself and deluding others who you are responsible for in your care.
Do yourself and your descendants a favor and do some research on what programs the Democrats have passed. You'll find that it because of them that we have clean air, water, etc. Because of them, you have protections from big demonogogues that try to keep the little man down. It is because of the Democrats that we have Social Security, Medicare and any type of protections of pensions, safety regulations on the job, fair labor practices, etc. These are programs of the people, for the people, by the people. The republicans are NOT good for the people of this country.
Go to church if you want religion! LEAVE IT OUT OF THE GOVERNMENT!
Well folks that are for Obama or any one that is decent dont expect reading anything on here but garbage and lies from this republican site they are all fallowers for a war started by made up lies,speaking of liers did you read the number of lies they have told the public?
Isn't the Gretta ,Hannity, Fox site .
We should be told what it took to raise a Hannity so we know which bridge we should not cross when raising children sure would not want to make another mistake .
Go Obama Yes We Can

I am sorry about that! I got amused and meant to put Oh boy! oh boy! oh boy! in my thread but I copied and pasted his comment and got a bit distracted.
Julie, i know your son and he told me you are a lunatic and you are full of crap! p.s. he said he is not a coward and you and osamabama are liars

The word hypocrite applies to Obama. "Barry" to use the name he went by during his 2 years at Occidental College, and while involved in drugs and more, is a skillful politician. If, God help us, he is elected we all will see the "back side of the moon". He believes what Rev. Wrong stands for and his bias will filter through everything he does. His wife revealed her bias based on 20 years of sermons from Rev. Wrong when she said it was the first time she was proud of the USA. She had all of the hate boiling in her based on being brainwashed by Rev. Wrong. She, with an education from Harvard and a $300K job was never proud that she could rise to that level in a short time. That should make her proud of the USA, not the fact her husband is a serious contender for the Presidency based on being a skillful politian and liar. What a pair of hypocrites. Vote against Barry and Hillary in November!

----------------------------------------- Are you nuts? You read left wing lying blogs, and accept them as truth. You actually see and hear videos of the Racist, hate filled, Anti American Pastor Wright, and make the unbelievable decision that Greta and Hannity are the liars. All proof shows Greta and Hannity are telling the truth and Obama and Wright are the liars. What happened to you brain? Why doesn't your brain work? Have you seen a doctor about your gulibility problem?
Oh and before I go to bed I just wanted to give props to Michael Steele! Man, if you are reading this. BRAVO! I adored hearing you speak tonight on FOX!!!
Tina, no worries. Good post. My sentiments exactly! I came to this country with nothing. I busted my behind for several years doing odd jobs to finance my way through university. It wasn't owed to me, I earned it. Oh but wait! To earn means to work! What? Self respect? Never heard that word before!
As an African American, I thank God that not all black people have that herd mentatlity to vote for the phony Obama! Go Hillary!
909 you WISE UP!! people like you are the biggest rascist, I'm for Obama and I'm white, anyone that I should be scared of, is stupid people who
doesn"t want changes. By the way you and all the other racist who doesn't see the good of Senator Obama, that is a shame! Too Bad, is going to be Our President, you will see, how wrong you and all the other's about the Senator.
OBAMA OBAMA

---------------- I have to say you are right when you say that Republicans do not care about blood sucking parasites. However, Republicans give far more to charities than Democrats do. If you can't make it on your own skills, tough sh it !! No one owes parasites anything, Black or White. A socialist parasite is scum no matter what it's color. Make your own way or lay down and die, just quit sucking on the body of others.
Yes!!! YESSSSS 915!!! Give more government programs!!! You are another socialist idiot, hell bent on the destruction of America - God bless your freedom to of free speech, but we will never succumb to your and osamabamas evil spel - sorry that you a misguided bimbo, but Darwin's law of natural selection will prevail... you will lose :(
This culture of blame the other guy... be they white or black or Jew or Christian ... this refusal to take personal responsibility for one's own life and future... this "poor me, I'm a helpless, hapless victim" mentality that takes affirmative action for granted and turns welfare housing projects into drug dealing wastelands covered with gang graffiti ...
It is turning people like me who used to care about helping others into cynics. I would love to see America elect a person of integrity who represents a minority... but a political moderate with intellectual balance and integrity -- not some veiled extremist who comes oh-so-neatly-packaged to appeal to the public.
When I heard Obama's speech in Philadelphia, he made some eloquent points which resonated with me... but after I heard these recent responses to spontaneous questions about his calling for Don Imus to be fired... questions for which he could not carefully prepare ahead of time... I'm afraid I finally saw the carefully hidden nature of the man beneath the artful facade. Sad.
I will be quite interested to see how Oprah Winfrey handles this unwitting expose' of her chosen candidate's religious and ideological affiliations... and his hypocrisy. Christopher Hitchens is right: "God is Not Great". Religion poisons everything. Without his involvement in that church and with that bigoted, hate-spewing pastor, Obama might have been elected.
To the # 920 liar .
How can we consider YOUR brain missing ? It never was in there from day one . It would be hard to miss something you never ever had!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Julie ----------- You have to realize, the only reason you are for Obama the racist liar, is because you are so ignorant and stubborn. That's OK, but ,you probably shouldn't vote since you haven't learned to think yet.

929 wise up! No! I THINK YOU SHOULD REALLY LAY OFF!!! yOU JUST DON'T GET IT! Have a great life. Go Obama!
To B.S. # 930
You better get used to the name Obama since he will be the President.
What is "Romantic " about being on the front lines in Iraq you should be able to explain that one since you are a fallower of the war mongers .
You have so much extra gas to expand you will never realize the price at the Cheney pump .
Go Obama we love you
We are all missing the point.... Black Liberation Jive (theology, joke, ie bull crap) is a racist doctrine against all people of non muslim or african origin - sounds allot like muslim/afro radical propaganda against jews and all western civilizations, - we must root the evil from within before it is too late, throw the muslim osamabama back to the scum where he came from... his mentor is a HITLERite wanna be, face th facts and wake up! osamabama has lost the white core vote, except for the tailer trash support he will always have, good bye osamabama!
trash???? you are are the "fake" mother of a war hero!!! you should be ashamed of bringing your child into a conversation - you are a wretched piece of garbage.
To those of you on the far left fringe, you can't possibly believe the rest of America is as insane as you. No one with an ounce of sense will vote for a committed lying, Anti American, Anti Military, racist, socialist disgusting pig like Obama.
Not even a liberal Democrat will now vote for that pile of garbage. The complete facts about all of his disgraceful acts of bigotry and hate haven't even been mentioned yet. They soon will be. The only people who would even slightly entertain the misguided idea of voting for Obama are true America haters. Obama has NO CHANCE ... at all. To think other wise is just STUPID. Obama will crawl back into the sewer hole he crawled out of and will never be heard from again, in the political arena. Good riddance to BAD RUBBISH.
The problems with the USA are . so many that it would take a book to list them all. Is the problem black and white? No, you want to know how I can say that. Well let me tell you what the problem is , it lack of love for this country. You can fix anything with love Hate kills it can causes men to kill one another. It causes people to live apart from one another, when they live next to one another.
All the problems that we have we have created for our selves.
After Abe freed the slaves we tried separate but equal that did not work, so we tried bussing but that did not work because we were still living apart. If you want to end this war between the races we must get to know one another. We need to go out of our way to meet our neighbor .
When I was young my mother worked so she had to have a baby sitter for me, my sisters and brother. We had a colored lady who took care of us ( don’t get upset about the word colored because that is what she told us that she was)
African-American is the latest I know but she will always be a colored lady to me with the main word being lady. Which she was. I loved her almost as mush as I loved my mother. Twenty years later when she died I cried almost as hard as I did when my mother died, And the blacks(as they called themselves at the time) hurt me because they told me that I was not welcomed at her funeral
I have been to African American churches, I know that a preacher can get worked up to a fever pitch when he get to preaching, but I had never heard one damn America. I have heard them said all the thing that was wrong with America. Which there are many but the main thing that they said was wrong was the lack of love for our fellow man. If you want to hate, hate the fact that this country is falling apart. Hate the fact that we are doing it to ourselves. We are no longer killing each other , we are now killing ourselves. Black on black crime is higher now than it has ever been, white children are taking gun to school and killing other white children.
Martin Luther King had it right , peaceful is the way., you can not change a man with hate but you can with love. Rev. Wright almost had it right when he said that the bible taught him the love his enemy, than he lost it when he added love the hell out of my enemy . You can not love the hell out for anyone but you can love the hate out of them. Rev. King did that. MLK day is a holiday not because he hated but because he loved. Should the races be separated , only if you want the war to go on forever.
I have had colored, blacks and African- American to my house for dinner. At one dinned I even had a Niger. I would have never called him that but one of the people who he invited to come with him called him that at my house. Later during the night when it was just him and I, I call him a Niger he got upset with me and I asked him why did he get upset with me for calling him that when the friend that can with him had done the same thing and he did not get upset. I told him if the word was wrong that it was wrong for his friend to say . We parted friends that night and days later him friend came to me and said that he was sorry for using that word in my house. Obama says word only words word do matter and to use then to cause hate is wrong . It is even more terrible when you use them in the house of the lord. His house should be a place of love.
Obama talked about the walls can tumbling down, then did not come down because of hate then can down when they all talked in one voice, they raised their voice to the lord and he made the way for them. They did not damn the wall down. They loved it down.
Obama is not the man for president because he listened to the hate come out of the Rev mouth and did nothing about it.
We need some one who will put a stop to the hate not some one who will sit by and let it happen.
Hillary love this country, she also love power, When Bill was in office they call him the first black president, he was not but he love this country and tried to make it better for all the people. Did he make mistakes yes he did big ones. Most of the big one were in his personal life, but Hillary stood by him because she had taken him for better or worst, and she got a lot of both.
With all that he did wrong he never once did something wrong to this country. The thing that he did may not have worked out for the best but he tried.
Obama would not let his pastor give the invocation when he put his hat in the ring, because he knew that the pastors words were wrong. For him and this country
McCaine is a man who is a war hero, and who has served this country for most of his life He says that he was a foot solider in the Ragan revolution, if he could say that he was a leader in the Ragan revolution I would be more likely to vote for his. We do not need a foot solider we need a leader. Obama learned at Rev. Wright knee Hillary learned at Bill side. You decide who to vote for , but make sure they love the USA
It's a shame, if Obama had been the "real deal", he might have been the first person to truly transcend race relations in this country, and possibly even help bring it together. Now, thanks to these revelations about his pastor, this election is going to deteriorate into a "black vs. white", "them vs. us" situation that we're all too familiar with.
For the record, I'd vote for John McCain no matter what democrat was running against him, not because of race but because of his policies and experience. But it was exciting to watch Obama manage to campaign for so long and not have race be an issue.
B/w the remarks made recently by his wife, combined with the hate-filled rhetoric of Pastor Wright, I would find it hard to believe that Obama doesn't secretly, deep-down, share many of the same views and attitudes that they do about this country. He's just better at hiding it because it suits his purpose at this time. He wouldn't have a chance to become president if he made similar comments, would he? He's a smooth talker, just like Bill Clinton was, but I don't see him being able to talk himself out of this, the evidence is just too damning.
#785 Shirley - I'd Rather Use My Bible to Advise Me - Thats the ONLY Truth Shirley and I feel sorry for you if your source is other than the REAL deal.
HE IS NOT TELLING THE TRUTH. 20 YEARS AGO, 18 YEARS AGO, 12 YEARS AGO, 8 YEARS AGO, 5 YEARS AGO, 2 YEARS AGO............HE DID NOT KNOW THE REVEREND WOULD BE RETIRING THIS MONTH, AND HE STILL SAT THERE. THIS IS A GOOD EXCUSE FOR THIS MONTH BUT WHAT ABOUT THE WHOLE 20 YEAR PERIOD. I NEVER HEAR ANYONE ASK HE THAT. THE REVEREND RETIRING THIS MONTH HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH OBAMA LISTENING TO THIS HATRED FOR THE PAST 20 YEARS. WHAT IN THE WORLD IS THE WHOLE MEDIA, EXCEPT FOR GRETA, THINKING AND GIVING HIM SUCH A PASS ON SUCH A HUGE ISSUE? I FEAR FOR THIS COUNTRY IF HE WINS THE ELECTION. I NEVER KNEW SUCH HATRED EXISTED. NO WONDER WE STILL HAVE SUCH RACIAL PROBLEMS. ANOTHER GENERATION BEING BROUGHT UP TO HATE, INCLUDING OBAMA'S TWO DAUGHTERS. I WOULD HAVE MARCHED MY CHILDREN OUT OF THAT CHURCH THE FIRST TIME ONE OF THOSE SERMONS WAS GIVEN. THE MEDIA IGNORING THIS AND GIVING HILLARY SUCH A HARD TIME IS UNBELIEVABLE. I THOUGHT THEY WERE BOTH EXCELLENT UNTIL THIS.
We're all searching for the next great leader. We are so desperate in our hopes and desires that some of us have already even tried to force square pegs (Bush 41, Clinton, and Bush 43) into the round hole of a "good president." We've had 2 good presidents in the past 48 years, Kennedy and Reagan. Both were good leaders. Both were excellent communicators. By and large, the nation's psyche was off the charts when they were in office. We felt good, and the nation prospered. A great combination!
After 20 years of mediocraty, we're beyond being ready for the next Great One. I am afraid that too many of us are ready to promote a charismatic fellow like Barak Obama, without really knowing anything about him.
The Reverend Wright episode is our first glimpse at the man behind the curtain. Where has candidate Obama been for the past 20 years? What is he really thinking? What is his true world view?
We still don't really know the answers to those questions. All we do know is that for 20 years, he embraced a man whose own world view is poisoned with hatred. Make no mistake about it, Reverend Wright, be he prophet, scholar, or man of God, has hatred in his heart. It is prevalent, and as obvious as the nose on one's face.
Now, listen carefully. It is Barak Obama's long-term willingness to embrace a man whose message is so filled with hate, that makes him far too great a risk to place in this nation's highest political office. Either his deeply held beliefs are not those of the great majority of America's citizens, or he has very poor judgment, or both. We cannot afford, out of desperation for great leadership, to elect this man to the United States presidency.
It pains me greatly to think that we will have to live through at least 4 more years of mediocre leadership, with John McCain, or with Hillary Clinton. But we must not trust Barak Obama to become our nation's next leader. The stakes are too high. The risk is too great.
O'bama's pastor for 20 years, Rev. Wright's ,shocking comments reflect a far more important issue, which is his church doctrine. How could Senator O'bama be a member there for so long and not know his church doctrine, which is very anti-American. Is this the CHANGE he plans for America? If so, we in America had better wake up and vote for a different candidate. We would prefer a president who puts the principles that God has given us first in his life,then he would be able to make the right decisions for AMERICA.

"Heidi, -------- See, God works in strange ways. You should bow down and than(sic) God he showed Wright and Obama for the racist liars they are."
I'm sorry, dear "ThankGod"... very sorry that you do not yet realize how utterly ridiculous your statement (above) really is. If your imaginary "god" were REALLY in control, or in fact EVER really existed, no one like Pastor Wright or Barack Obama would ever have persisted in their two-faced racist collaboration for the last 20 years. Nor would muslims be praising THEIR version of the contradictory, vengeful, bloodthirsty "God of Abraham" every time they blow up innocent people. Nor would the "Holy" Crusades or the Inquisition or the Salem Witch Burnings ever happened. Religion just may kill off the human species if we do not evolve emotionally and intellectually beyond such BLOODY nonsense!!!
It seems that 'personal responsibility' is not a concept recognized by Black Theology Liberty scholars. These divisionists are expert at getting some people to buy into the idea that anything that goes wrong in their lives is the fault of others, not themselves. All of the free housing, education, food, healthcare, job preference, etc, will never change their minds because now they have focused on a common hatred rather than on their own shortcomings. The result is an undermining of any sort of meaningful pride in much of the Afro-American community, and an ensuing sorry future for their prosperity. We used to take pride in our housing communities, now they are a sanctuary for criminals. We used to have pride in our educational system, now it is a joke (does anyone in this forum even own a dictionary?) We had pride in our children's achievements, now we bail them out of jail. We worked diligently for a raise, now we demand it. We had family values, now we are lucky to even piece together one whole family. Yet there are apparently some voters who think we haven't sunk low enough and will cast their vote for Obama or Clinton. In a country of 350 million, these are the best candidates we can find?
EDWARD PECK THE US AMBASSADOR who is a white man is who the Rev was quoting when he stated the chickens have come home to roost. Edward Peck said the chickens have come to roost you all are intelligent do the research and see if he said. Then I ask you what in the world is Pat Buchanan with his arsonist words he speak. What in the world is McCain going to do for the country? All of you who have spoken ill about BHO are truly misguided. Say what you want to say but don't use excuses to lynch him. The fact is you are scared of a black man who is equally and in some cases much more educated than most of you on this blog. Half of you are were you are because DADDY lied, stole, and cheated to place you there. It's okay that you don't like the BHO buts it's ludacris to use the excuses. Say it you don't want him there because you fear a BLACK man being in this high position. Pat Buchanan, Hagee, Edward Peck and a million others have spoken ill about America and Black America and neither of them have been thrown under the bus. Twenty second soundbits of a man who has been preaching for twenty years does not sum up his career. Yes what he said was apalling, outside of GD America what he said was the TRUTH. A lot of white america can't handle the truth!
#947 Truth - I agree with most of what you say, but a swipe at the spelling, well, tisn't nice. I mispell often myself because I'm either typing too fast or your right, not taking the time to look up the spelling. Doesn't, however, make me un-American or stupid. Just some typos. UNLESS, your meaning is that maybe "people should stay in school". THAT I'll agree with! Doesn't take a new school building or a built in swimming pool to learn to read and write.

#950 Double Standard - You need some really intense therapy my friend.
I believe if you take small children and subject them to hate and racism, or anything else, that child will grow up to hate and be a raciest or what ever they have been told to be true. It is the same with the people in the other parts of the world. They probably hadn't seen any of the things they were taught, but it has been drilled in to them as children now they hate AMERICA just because!!!!!
I don't like Double Standards, either, Mr 950 "Double Standard". So I'll be sure to mention the documented fact that welfare housing projects turn into drug dealing, squalid slums, and the fact that the inner cities are hotbeds of black on black crime. And white people plotted to infect black people with AIDS??? You actually think Wright had it right, "Double Standard"??? REALLY??? Well what white guy is standing there twisting a black person's arm and making them shoot up with a dirty needle, huh? And what white person is waiting to pull the condoms off black men so they'll have UN-protected sexual intercourse, huh? GET REAL!!!!!!! "Double Standard", indeed!!! Barack Obama was raised by his white relatives because his black Kenyan daddy ran out on the family... just like my white niece's bi-racial boyfriend ran out on her after she let him knock her up. Maybe my multi-racial grand nephew will run for President in 30 years. He's quite handsome, too, and he gets good grades. Hopefully he will be MORE HONEST... and more realistic about who really loved him and who really took good care of him. It WASN'T HIS DADDY, either.
Black people have projects, white people have trailer parks. The same type of crimes exist in both instances. Who has the money to bring the drugs in by plane? Yet another double standard instead of bringing down the trafficker you go after the little man. And now that we are finding that just as many white people are being incarcerated for drugs as black people we change the law to make sure that we are sentencing people equally. Which might I add had not been happening throughout the 80's and 90's. But my point was, which you did not address Heidi how Pat Buchanan, Hagee, Edward Peck can speak racist words and it's overlooked. But you have proven my point it's not about anything other than the fact that a lot of white america could not stand for a Black man to be president. If you would just address that issue I would respect your type of person much better. To thine ownself be true. You use scare tactics with your people instead of being straightforward and showing them your true twisted diluted eniacal way of thinking. It sad also I hope your nephew doesn't see what you posted here.
Black people have projects, white people have trailer parks. The same type of crimes exist in both instances. Who has the money to bring the drugs in by plane?

#953 HEIDI - EXCELLENTTTTTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
#955 Double Standard - And you call white people racist?? I'm sure you like blaming everyone else for your awful existance. Why don't you read Bill Cosby's book? It would do you some good. Whine, cry, blame others, its not my fault, the white man made me do it, whites hate me, whine whine whine. Some of us are sooooooooooo sick of it. Like your the only people who have ever suffered. Like that little "white" girl who is dying of a brain tumor. But I'm sure your suffering is worse. And you wonder, with all your hate, why some of us white americans are getting sick of it.
ColorBlindVoter, #957 your ignorance is blinding. I never blamed anyone for anything. I simply said that a lot of white people are hiding their true feelings in how they feel and have felt about black people. I never once mentioned anything about white people owing me anything. Again you have failed to address my point, Edward Peck is the white man who said that the chickens have come home to roost but some how you feel that Wright should be lynch for repeating it. If you are sick of see a doctor!
Obama's Father was black and his Mother white.If elected, would he be considered a black Pres. or a white Pres. ????????????
#950/958 - You are so racist in your thought patterns and what you printed it actually baffles me. I must be ignorant because I'm actually answering your one sided, "I hate white people" post. Good Bye and Good Luck! HIDING OUR FEELINGS? You are THEE TYPICAL RACIST! It isn't about Obamas color although your spinning it that way along with so many of your kind. Its about is lack of honesty, integrity, love for his country and his rather hidden dislike for white people. You still won't get it so I'm going bye bye.
#959 - good question. I for one don't care if the President is green. I just want someone in office who ISN'T RACIST, loves his country (not just because of him running for office), isn't a liar, has integrity, does not have close and intimate friends who are racist, does not have a mentor who is racist, does not believe in either "black" power (which is part of his church's website doctrine) or "white" power, isn't afraid to put his hand on his heart when the pledge is being said, etc. etc.
I wonder how much it will cost the tax payers to change our currancy to read"GOD DAM AMERICA". Lets not blame whitty or the cracker or honkies on the racism brought forth in the Obama/wright spew of hate. The blacks brought this on. We all know if this type of hate was preached in white churches about blacks, the Rev's would be doing back flipps. ie Jesse, Al, Wright and the likes. Now we are hearing that this is common black preaching throught-out america, because its a black thing and thats okay. Well!! its not okay with me. I really thought this was behind us in america, it was for me anyway!!But its wrong-wrong-wrong no matter what color, race or gender you might be. I am offended personally with this black hate toward whitty. No one in my family tree had any chains on anyone. If the blacks can't move in with "america the great", well atleast only hate the ones who had the keys. Its not me or my family tree. So get the names and spew over them. Leave my white family out of your hate preaching. We gave black people aids-come-on!!!! So you blacks can see why this is so offensive to most of us white folk.

FYI The poor white and/or black and/or brown people I see around here (rural Florida) who DO live in trailer parks PAID FOR THEIR OWN TRAILERS AND THEIR OWN SPACE RENT OR BOUGHT THEIR OWN LAND. The Welfare state doesn't pay for TRAILERS. It pays for actual brick and mortar and wood frame HOUSING which the inhabitants habitually TRASH.
As for Pat Buchannan -- I didn't vote for him when he DID run for President years ago because he is a right-wing Christian and I'm tired of Presidents claiming that "god" tells them what to do. Meanwhile, neither Buchannan nor Hagee (a wealthy con-artist televangelist, right?) are running for President this time. If they were, I would just as carefully examine their beliefs and their personal integrity as I would Obama's... and I would not vote for any of the above. NOW, "DoubleStandard", I'll ask you AGAIN: what white guy is standing there twisting a black person's arm and making them shoot up with a dirty needle, huh? And what white person is waiting to pull the condoms off black men so they'll have UN-protected sexual intercourse, huh? It all comes down to PERSONAL CHOICE. Period. I love what ColorBlindVoter said -- pay attention to Bill Cosby... and while you're at it, pay attention to Colin Powell and Larry Elders, too.
Obama chooses to NOT to wear a Flag lapel pin.
Obama chooses NOT to place his hand on his heart during the Pledge of Allegiance.
Obama chooses to trash Imus while cutting a big swath of forgiveness for Wright.
Obama could not remember being in Church during hate spewing, but he remembers lots of cute political sayings.
NOT my kind of guy.!!!
Obama provides eloquent recitation of problems, but offers no solutions.

#949 Corrine - I did not intend to insult anyone's spelling or grammar, we all make typos, especially when we're trying to type out a thought before we forget it. I referred to the consistent misspellings in some of the posts. Some bloggers will repeatedly spell 'repErations' instead of 'repArations' three or four times, probably not typos, and yes, they should have stayed in school and paid attention. When I see uniform misspellings, I generally discount the whole train.
Heidi .... It is always easy to spot an idiot like you. First off, the biggest morons are to stupid to realize they don't know any more about infinity than any one else. It is only their stupidity that makes them think they are the ones that really know what is true and what is not. Believe me ... I am your better & am more intelligent than you ... You, as an idiot, have way to much confidence in that tiny little malfunctioning brain of yours.
#965 Truth - Try not to discount them. I always thought I was such a good speller. I find the faster I type the more I make mistakes. Its the passion I think when we disclose on these blogs our feelings. We're just humans with many failings I guess. I realize there are some typings that are realllly bad. I wonder whether its "education" or possibly some other problems. I know that there are some that are actually VERY hard to read and understand. God Bless and have a great day!
Heidi......... How did we get on the subject of drug users. Last I check white people are on drugs just the same as asians, latino's, blacks, italians, no one race is excluded from drug use. Drug use nor aids discriminates. However you finally hinted on answering my point; which is in fact that the problem you have with Wright is not what he said was the exact same thing that a lot of white America has been saying who arent happy with the current administration particularly Edward Peck, Pat Buchanan, Hagee and a few others. The problem is that a black man had the audacity in your small brain to say what he said and this my friend upsets you tremendously. So you pull out of your hat that I mentioned something about you owing me. I never stated that. But this is how shallow people like you are; you lump us all in one barrel and you miss the fact that it must be your sub conscience that made you feel like I stated that you owe me something or whites owe blacks something. Everything I have I worked for and will continue to work for and will continue to strive above the normal and that includes all races. No one forces anyone drug user to use drugs to answer your question. Statistically whites use more drugs than most including prescribed drugs. But that isn't the point! The point is Edward Peck and others white americans outside of these right wing conservatives feel the same way the one Rev Wright feels! The truth hurts and I see that you are hurt Heidi but degrading and name calling what heal your hurt. The truth will!
964... Please tell me what solutions have the other candidates come up with? Please you all are killing just admit it. It will free you! No matter how much you state it's not about black or white it is. You'd much rather a forgetfull old man, or a lying exaggerator to run the country than a over qualified black man to run the country. Just admit!
the only things Obama is over qualified in are lying, racism and his hatred for all things American.
Obama is a qualified con man. He has been able to con the most ignorant of Americans into thinking he is something other than the con man he is. It takes a very stupid human not to see what a slithering snake Obama in FACT is. Soon, like all snakes, Obama will shed his black & white skin and show himself to be a yellow coward, as he slithers back to his hole to hide from all Americans.
This is the problem with Obama. Obama will never be held responsible for what he says or what he does. Our country no longer has the guts to hold African Americans accountable for their actions as well as many minority groups today. The average person looks with horror at Obama's church and can't believe the anti American racist snippets of sermons that are not only morally devoid of character and integrity but we have allowed gay people offend the Christian religion in San Francisco without even a pause! . However - it is UNFAIRLY acceptable to hold white people to a higher standard, as is the case with Don Imus. If as Obama said it was only a few times in a thirty year history it is too much. If I am appalled at Dom Imus "speaking" ghetto than I am equally appalled at Reverand Wright speaking the truth from the pulpit. But this is the environment of our country today. This is how "the majority" relieves their self-imposed guilt for the socially intolerant acts of our parents and grandparents. This is why Obama will never embrace his white heritage. As long as he professes and nourishes the antiquated view of inequities and intolerance of the black race he can do whatever he wants. The only way our country will overcome this social quandary is to hold each person as a human being accountable for their own personal acts without excuse regardless of their sex, race, gender or heritage. Let's hold Obama accountable - IT IS NOT ACCEPTABLE THAT YOUR CHURCH or YOUR PASTOR SPEWS VENOMOUS HATRED ON A WEEKLY BASIS FOR YOU, YOUR WIFE OR YOUR CHILDREN TO HEAR. I don't believe for a second that you did not know about this and I will not look away because part of your heritage makes you a minority. I will hold you to the same standards that I hold for myself. You are a candidate for president - you must embrace your ethnic heritage and be held to a higher standard, be truthful and let the chips fall as they may.

----------------------------- You can't name one thing Obama has done that qualifies him for anything other than selling used cars. The reason you can't name one thing Obama has done that qualifies him for anything other than selling used cars, is because he hasn't done anything that qualifies him for anything other than selling used cars. Obama couldn't recognize the truth if it jumped out and bit him in the butt, and it has and will continue to.
Kind of scary, wouldn’t you think!!!
According to The Book of Revelations the anti-christ is:
The anti-christ will be a man, in his 40s, of MUSLIM descent, who will deceive the nations with persuasive language, and have a MASSIVE Christ-like appeal….the prophecy says that people will flock to him and he will promise false hope and world peace, and when he is in power, will destroy everything. Is it OBAMA??
This is from the OK blog - After watching the View yesterday - I was thinking this myself - Is it possible???
#974 Janine - Your not the only one who has thought about that same thing.
More angry white people. What are you babies complaing about now?
Obama will never make it. All Americans have seen him for the lying, racist Anti American/military dirt bag that he is. Only the worst left wing Democrats of America now stands with him, and they are very, very, very small in number. Even your standard brain dead Democrat has seen Obama for the liar, racist a-hole he most definitly is.
Can you show me what you are refering to in scripture 974? Thanks!
#976 Mark - your IQ is showing again dear. Are you old enuf to be blogging? hmmmmmmmm I'd say your under 15.
I think I figured out what all this FOX poll stuff is really about. This is where all the racist white people come to vent. You all come here to make your racist comments because your all cowards and won't say it to our face. All you racist white people come online to make each other fill good about being prejudices.
976.By: mark | Mar 29, 17:32
More angry white people. What are you babies complaing about now? ***STATEMENT*** Most of us here are black or black&white like Obama. We just want to make sure other good people like ourselves, don't think all of us are hateful liars like Obama. We are trying to unite not divide like Wright and Obama want.
#980 copy and paste - WHAT? it must be med time.
what did rev wright say that was so bad? All of you talk the same way about black people. Hipacrits
980.By: copy and paste | Mar 29, 17:38
I'm sure a racist like you has heard this before, but here goes. YOU ARE A RACIST MORON !!!
#981 Both - yeh, a person can't make a decision and not vote for a black man without being called a racist - I'm white and I'm sick and tired of it. Why didn't that "mark the feeble" vote for Alan Keyes? Some of us white folk did!
Guys - Don't let that dufus MARK get to you. He's got an iq of about 12 and his comments show it. I'm sick of THE RACE DEBATE!
Most white people don't like blacks and they never will. Thats why they come online to talk trash about us because they cant say it to our face. I got xbox live about a year ago. I never heard the N word so much in my life. I was trying to figure out why. Now I know.
983.By: mark | Mar 29, 17:41
what did rev wright say that was so bad?
***** to make it easier and less time consuming, plus, we only get 4000 chars, let's try .... WHAT DID REV. WRIGHT SAY THAT WASN'T BAD? That question makes for a much, much shorter list.
I don't like or dislike blacks. I like or dislike people. I do, however love the truth. Tell me the truth and regardless of your race, sexual orientation or gender you can be my friend or colleague.
PS- I don't like hatred and I do like manners which many of our children today are sorely lacking.
#987 Mark - the only time I hear the n word is from other BLACK COMEDIANS AND RAP ARTISTS, including the very funny Mr. Murphy. Need I go on? Your own race defames you all every day! Why not stop buying their music. They also defame woman and with more vulgarity and filth than I can state on here. Start cleaning up your own towns and people b4 stepping into and critizing other races. Your race has ENOUGH to clean up. You don't see anyone on these sights blaming the black race for the white race having kids out of wedlock, serial killings, etc. I think you just like pulling peoples strings and see how they flop around.
white against black. Perfect for REP party. Thats their way of guaranteeing a victory. I know there is no chance in hell a black person will ever be president. If by some chance that happens he will be shot by a racist white person before he ever swears in. Everyone scared of everyone. Thats how this race war works. Outnumbered 10-1 blacks will allways loose. This whole thing is a no win situation for blacks. Lopsided as hell. Even I am falling in to this race trap. But I cant help it. It kind of fills good to hate back.
All you white people do is cry like little babies about how hard you have it. You cry about black people having it easy. You complain about paying your taxes. You cry because you cant say the N word. Boo hoo hoo
"Mark", isn't black, he is a young white kid who thinks it is fun to pretend he is black. Those of us here that are black, understand the comments here are only about Reverand Wright and B. Obama, whom have let us, the black community, down in a very big way.
Is Obama white or black? It seems like anyone who is half white is always considered to be the other half. Why? I guess Obama is suposed to be racist against his own mom and daughters. No wait!! Mabie he is racist aginst himself.
#994Samual
The reason why we keep getting bombardment from the media abou wright is because news stations like FOX want this type of reaction. They know Obama has a good chance of beating Mcain. The only way Mcain can win is to put whites against blacks in a race war. Once race gets involved nobody will care about the other issues. And I think they have accomplished their goal. REP. WIN AGAIN!!
BLACK POWER!BLACK POWER!BLACK POWER!BLACK POWER!BLACK POWER!BLACK POWER!BLACK POWER!BLACK POWER!BLACK POWER!BLACK POWER!BLACK POWER!BLACK POWER!BLACK POWER!BLACK POWER!BLACK POWER!BLACK POWER!BLACK POWER!BLACK POWER!BLACK POWER!BLACK POWER!BLACK POWER!BLACK POWER!BLACK POWER!BLACK POWER!BLACK POWER!BLACK POWER!BLACK POWER!BLACK POWER!BLACK POWER!BLACK POWER!BLACK POWER!BLACK POWER!BLACK POWER!BLACK POWER!BLACK POWER!BLACK POWER!BLACK POWER!BLACK POWER!BLACK POWER!BLACK POWER!BLACK POWER!BLACK POWER!BLACK POWER!BLACK POWER!BLACK POWER!BLACK POWER!BLACK POWER!BLACK POWER!BLACK POWER!BLACK POWER!
Hey Mark, pull your pants back up, put your hat back to straight, and go outside and play with the other kids in the playground of your parents suburb condo-plex.
Mark, The only reason FOX puts out the news about The Reverand Wright and Mr. Obama is because it is truthful NEWS. It should be covered. You would want it covered if it were McCain and David Duke. Think before you run off at the mouth. You make everyone look silly when you spout that kind of trash.
994Samual
Samual you don't fool me. If u were black u yould know obama is not black. Hes not white. He is......Well he is not black or white. But whites hate him because he is not 100% white. Blacks like him because he is the best we have right now. He is the closest thing we have to having a black canidate.
#994 Samual - Thanks for the tip - I get so frustrated saying over and over about "its not skin color". I thought he might be someone other than what he's claiming. NOW I KNOW why he wasn't listening. I had a feeling he might be about 15 or so. I think I need some alcohol Samual!
Well Said Samual. If I thought McCain was operating the same way he wouldn't get my vote. I guess Samual, I wouldn't be voting at all. Hillery, thats a whole other story! She couldn't tell the truth if her life depended on it! I think Bill would like being sorta like "first lady". Have to keep him away from all those "new" interns however.
OH!!! here we go again. Now its the white people causing the problems. Sounds like that same old stuff. Now let me think!!!!!! it wasn't Rev. Wrights hate for whitty and GOD DAM AMERICA spew or was it? No its whitty, I'm sure.
#1003 George - read Samuals post's. He thinks Marks a white kid who is trying to provoke every one on this sight.
1000.By: mark | Mar 29, 18:12
994Samual Samual you don't fool me. If u were black u yould know obama is not black. Hes not white. He is......Well he is not black or white.
THAT IS BY FAR THE MOST RACIST THING I HAVE READ ON THIS BLOG. Shame on you. You are purposly trying hard to divide. You are not helping the racial problems, you are making them worse.
Im not helping the racial problem! LOL LOL LOL. You white people just don't want to admit that obama is just as much white as he is black and it makes yall sick. Why cant you just say it obama is white. His mom was white. You racist make me sick. Im not helping the racial problem! LOL there would be no race problem whith out whites.
#1005 Samual - Mental incompetence comes in all shapes and colors Samual, with that said I'm leaving Mark and his raving and eating dinner. Have a great weekend! Thanks for your calming thoughts.
When I was in the army I got to my first duty station at fort polk. I was just a private and new to the army. The first week I was there, I was leaving the moterpool with three other white guys. One of them said a black joke and used the N word. They laughed and than said Oh! sorry we forgot you were in the back. No offense. What was I supposed to say? I was new and a only a pvc. I just said OK. But now I think about it and I wish I would have beat his A$$.
Samuel,sickofit,Mark and Corrine. I guess maybe we all have vented and maybe its time to say enough of this. GOD BLESS FOR A UNITED AMERICA. Most of us have suffered with something in life. Lets move on from here and hope something good has come out of all this for both blacks and whites. One nation under god. We need to remember that-all of us.
Mark, The reason everyone here understands your brand of racism is because of your own words. There are probably only 6 black people in America that do not have some white ancestors in their background. Tiger Woods is part black, part white and part Asian, Michael Jordan has white ancestors, Reverend Jackson has white ancestors, Al Sharpton has white ancestors, Malcolm X had white ancestors. YOU HAVE WHITE PEOPLE IN YOUR ANCESTRY. You have to think before you type. The reason no one here takes anything you say seriously is, you appear to have a bad case of Diareaha of the mouth and constipation of the brain.
#1010 Samual - You just gave me the best laugh I've had all week!
#1009 George - It would be nice but I think as long as man is on earth there will be war. Thank goodness the Lord will provide another world with no hate, violence or illness. Yeh for God Bless the Dear old USA
1009george Hey George. That was a nice comment to make but you must be delusional if you think something good will come out of all of this. Too much hate coming from all sides. I realize I have a lot of anger towards whites. I didnt even know until I stared reading and posting comments three days ago. Even though they say they want a better world for everyone their actions say something different. You say "1009-Lets move on from here and hope something good has come out of all this for both blacks and whites." Yet you are not able get past this obma the racist thing. what did obama say that was racist. nothing. Who cares anyway he cant win. mccain will win and we will get 4 more years of war and another 4000 us deaths.
mccain will win and we will get 4 more years of war and another 4000 us deaths. >>>>>>>>>>>>>EXACTLY AS IT SHOULD BE. >>>>>>>>> Keep killing terrorists as long as there are any alive. 200 years if necessary, 300, 400, 1000 if necessary, just keep killing terrorists.

By: truth | Mar 29, 15:35 - "Heidi .... It is always easy to spot an idiot like you. First off, the biggest morons are to (sic) stupid to realize they don't know any more about infinity than any one else."
ON THE CONTRARY, "Truth" (LOL)... I notice that the ACTUAL idiots always resort to ad hominem attacks when they are unable to respond with FACTS. This would include those who willingly accept the collected ancient writings of Middle Eastern Hebrews who lacked comprehension of the solar system and believed in talking snakes. Those who accept the biblical interpretation of "infinity" would rather derive emotional comfort from a fairy tale than open their narrow, deluded minds to scientific investigation and ongoing discovery. Your comments about my relative intelligence are merely projections... and clear overcompensations for your own obvious ignorance. AND to 968 "Response to Heidi" - if you had paid attention when reading my post (#963) you might have grasped the fact that my mention of DRUG USE centered upon the sharing of dirty needles, which spreads AIDS. This was in response to Rev. Wright's ludicrous accusations about white people plotting to spread AIDS throughout the black community. MY POINT was that without engaging in practices which spread the AIDS virus, (like sharing dirty needles and having unprotected sexual intercourse) the AIDS virus would not be spreading throughout the inner cities (and all over Africa, BTW). This is a clear-cut example of a black preacher attempting to blame some imaginary white plot for the results of blacks' own behavior. YES, obviously there ARE people of ALL ethnic backgrounds who use drugs. THE POINT IS that those who MOST contract and spread the AIDS virus are engaging in behaviors associated with drugs and sexuality which expose themselves to the infection. Without those behaviors, the infection would NOT spread regardless of drug use, and regardless of race. UNDERSTAND NOW??? My POINT is that one's OWN foolish, risk-taking behavior exposes one to the AIDS virus... and no imaginary enemies, racial or otherwise are responsible for YOUR behavior. UNDERSTAND NOW??? Rev. Wright is a racist fool and unfortunately Barack Obama is his TOOL. I would willingly vote for a decent, honest, intelligent person of color and/or the female gender if ANYONE fitting that description was actually running for President this time. OBVIOUSLY that is NOT the case. And if Hillary actually finagles the nomination, she will certainly need a FLACK JACKET during the upcoming Presidential campaign... and for a completely different variety of flack than she fallaciously claimed to have dodged at the airport in Bosnia.
Heidi......... I read your entire post. I rest my case, You are an idiot.
YOU SAY: --- (LOL)... I notice that the ACTUAL idiots always resort to ad hominem attacks when they are unable to respond with FACTS. --->>><<<--- NOT TRUE. Someone as ignorant as you, only needs an accurate description of your extremely limited intelligence. Thus, You are AN IDIOT. Since your limited intelligence precludes you from understanding ANYTHING, what's the point of wasting time explaining things that are way to complicated for your tiny little mind to comprehend?
"Truth" (LOL...) Thank you for proving my point so well by continuing to exemplify the very behavior I've described. (If you do not comprehend the term, "ad hominem attack", simply Google it.) Perhaps you believe that your transparent excuses for failing to offer facts or logic in rebuttal will convince our readers of YOUR self-proclaimed superiority. Actually... it is not through touting one's own intelligence that one becomes known for his intelligence. Instead, one's own intelligence is revealed through discourse. YOUR discourse consists mainly of ad hominem attack (yawn...). Should you ever manage to offer anything intelligent in rebuttal, I will rebutt in kind... and without the need for personal insults in lieu of logic. I stopped throwing spitballs in grammar school... although in your case I must admit that treating you to a nice, gooey pie in the face would be wonderfully cathartic, LOL. It would suit YOUR level of discourse quite well.....
Heidi ... If there were ANY truth or substance to your arguments, you would receive rebuttal. However, since you NEVER state anything but bull sh it and lies, there is no need to validate your lies and bull sh it with any kind of rebuttal. Describing your mental abilities is all that is required. YOU ARE AND IDIOT.
"Truth" -- that was a truly WEAK excuse for a reply. 8-P ... You cannot offer rebuttal because you have absolutely NO idea how to contradict anything I've said. And the more truth and substance there is to an argument, the more the opposition has to resort to ad hominem attacks. Apparently you also fail to realize that an effective rebuttal does NOT validate an opposing argument... an EFFECTIVE rebuttal successfully INvalidates an opposing argument. All available evidence indicates that you are INcapable of an effective rebuttal. Furthermore, your redundant choice of simple-minded invectives indicates a profound lack of imagination... and a mediocre vocabulary. I find you entertaining in the same way that one of my cats finds it fun to play with a dead mouse. Now see if you can manage to come with something better next time.
Heidi ... 1018 ...Now that was weak ... By validate your lies and Bull sh it, I meant, even responding to them would mean there might be even a minuscule amount of truth in them. There isn't, so, there is no need to rebut. YOU ARE AN IDIOT is sufficient response to your lies and bull sh it.
"Truth", LOL ... 8-P.... First you merely copy me, and echo my remark "that was weak". Next you repeat your earlier lame excuse for failing to offer an intelligent rebuttal. Then you fail to comprehend the desperation evinced by having to resort to ad hominem attacks. The epithets "bull sh*t" and "idiot" constitute conclusions you have failed to substantiate -- mere adolescent "name calling". You remind me of the Black Knight in Monty Python and the Holy Grail.... wriggling about with both legs and both arms chopped off, spouting blood everywhere and shouting "Come back here you cowards! Have at you!" (BTW, Have you done your homework yet this evening? There might be a spelling test tomorrow in class, and I doubt if you'll pass.)
Heidi..... You give yourself much to much credit. Go see a shrink. You are an IDIot
Congratulations, "Truth"... only ONE misspelled word this time (of course there were considerably fewer words). But you do seem stuck in a rut. Can you not come up with a greater variety of insulting nouns, and manage to throw in some imaginative adjectives next time? I mean... honestly... if you can't offer any intelligent rebuttal, the least you could do is come up with some CLEVER invective...
Dear Greta, I am saddened to read some of the comments written by some of the great American people. I think, if given a chance, Obama could really unite this country. For those who are Biblical readers, Jesus rubbed elbows with the publicans and sinners in His day. When Mary M. cried on HIs feet and dried them with her hair, people said, "If He knew who she was, He wouldn't allow it." (Paraphrased) How can you exact change if you don't associate with people with whom you have different views than they do? I associate with different people with whom I share totally different views and we can be, and are friends. I have good Jewish friends. I have some friends who are incarcerated. I have friends who are Presbeterians. We are non-denomenational, but we minister to Methodist, Baptist, Apostolic, shucks, we even minister to plain ole, every day sinners. My point is that even though we live, and associate with people who are of different views, we are not racist, we are not liars, we are not murderers, we are not theives, and there are some people who may be undesirable to many in society, that we must treat them with the love that God requires of us. I am sure that Hillary doesn't share the same view that Bill shared about Monica, and she is still married to him! Where is the outcry about her staying married to a cheater? I personally admired and respected her until recently. I can not tolerate a liar. Sniper fire, indeed! She flat out made that garbage up and how did she explain it? "I miss spoke, I'm only human." I had faulty memory. ( hope she remembers better IF elected to office. Is that the beginning of Alzheimer's? Liar, liar pants on fire! I suppose that when the phone rang in the past at 3 a.m., and she answered it, I can imagine her saying, "Bill it's Monica!" OOOPS, did I say that?
Dear Greta, I am saddened to read some of the comments written by some of the great American people. I think, if given a chance, Obama could really unite this country. For those who are Biblical readers, Jesus rubbed elbows with the publicans and sinners in His day. When Mary M. cried on HIs feet and dried them with her hair, people said, "If He knew who she was, He wouldn't allow it." (Paraphrased) How can you exact change if you don't associate with people with whom you have different views than they do? I associate with different people with whom I share totally different views and we can be, and are friends. I have good Jewish friends. I have some friends who are incarcerated. I have friends who are Presbeterians. We are non-denomenational, but we minister to Methodist, Baptist, Apostolic, shucks, we even minister to plain ole, every day sinners. My point is that even though we live, and associate with people who are of different views, we are not racist, we are not liars, we are not murderers, we are not theives, and there are some people who may be undesirable to many in society, that we must treat them with the love that God requires of us. I am sure that Hillary doesn't share the same view that Bill shared about Monica, and she is still married to him! Where is the outcry about her staying married to a cheater? I personally admired and respected her until recently. I can not tolerate a liar. Sniper fire, indeed! She flat out made that garbage up and how did she explain it? "I miss spoke, I'm only human."

#1025Baraabara - You speak of "JESUS" teachings when the man your defending believes that killing the unborn is ok. You better start reading your BIBLE b4 talking about your "LOVE". Sickening!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We're talking about the PRESIDENCY not a "friendship". Your comments are more distressing than most on here so when you start talking Obamas retoric with lets love one another KNOW what your talking about and PICKUP YOUR BIBLE!
Obama is the worst ever. It is scary to think of him as president. Wake up white people before it is too late.
This man is the biggest liar I have ever heard he is not here for this vote for war,not there at reverend wrights sermon,not there for questionares,excuses,excuses and where is he going to be when he is in the white house NEXT DOOR.Thinks about it America.The phone rings three am wheres Obama He wasn't there.
Simple and to the point....all of Minister Wright's community, he has brainwashed all of them....to include the president of the USA. Obama, won't even denonce him, why do you think? He believes that the minister is right. What a surprise this is going to be for all who vote for him.
I just don't get why so many people think Sen/ Obama is so terrific - so innocent!! His beliefs and differential attitudes are very racists... (I know that is is currently considered wrong (i.e. not PC) for any non minority, male or female, to say that they feel they are victims of racism or any kind of "ism" ever, at any time. I have heard the various explanations for why non-minorities are not permitted to feel discriminated against, and I don't buy it! ). If Obama's reverend of twenty plus years had said the horribly anti-American and racist... yes, racist!... things that he says week after week just after 9/11, we wouldn't see people believing that Obama doesn't buy into his minister's beliefs... we would see him as a threat as the anti-American that he is. For Obama to say that he doesn't believe or buy into what his minister says is the height of hypocrisy!!! After all, Rev. Wright married him, he christened his children, he saw him several times each and every week for many years... C'mon America.... wake up!!! Is he a racist christian or a muslim.. (remember Farrakhan?) I'm still not sure.
Obama is a total fool, no amount of double talk is enough for him, double standards for that racist all the way. NOBAMA, NOBAMA, NOBAMA.
Obama is showing his immaturity if he thinks we're buying his "stories"!
I am just totally confused how the media for the exception of Fox keeps giving Obama a supporter of an Anti-American, who vomits hatred towards it people, the country. Who screams his varrmit of hatred saying we deserved the tragedy of 9/11/ compares our Country to the kkk, preaches the word of hatred towards America by asking his parishiners not to say God Bless America but to say God Damm Americ..and Obama the hypocrit for twenty years is in this church and lies and dares to insult the American Peoples intellegent by saying he never heard, yet he was the parishiner of 20 years!
He mand this Anti-American his friend,campaign inspirational leader and worst of all his Mentor. Obama is a hypocrit by putting down Imus,how dare he when his association and friendship with a hard core radical racist such as his Mentor of twenty years. He is a lier, saying his father received the package from the Kennedys to come and study here in the United States. He cam several years before the Kennedys scholarships, he lied about the form he filled out by saying he did not fill it out and now they have found he form with his hand writing. There are so many lies from this man, things that many Americans are not aware becasue the other Media stations give him a free pass. I am confused as how many people can support Obama, are we loosing the love for America we once had? is our patriotism going down the drain?
How can we Americans support a man that has brought us back 40 years. He has brought out the big racial Bandwagon of race with his empty words "famous" speech to divert the American People from the Hatred that his Mentor of Twenty Years expressed towards our beloved America! Wright is
his friend & Mentor and having a supporter of an Anti-American in our White House who by supporting this America hater has shown no judgement! Where is our pride, our love, our respect for America? I say send a strong message to Obama We do not elect a supporter of Anti-Americans!
I finally have some hope! People are waking up to the fact that Obama is a smooth talking fraud. Everybody should start rediculing the newsmedia and the talking heads that have been trying so hard to give him the nomination with their swooning and kid glove treatment. Hillary Clinton is a much better choice. And Bill Clinton was right when he said this whole thing with Obama is "the biggest fairy tale he has ever heard." Start checking and you'll see that this espisode with Wright is only one example where Obama twists, exaggerates, and down right lies. The more I think about it, the more I'm thinking that the newsmedia misinterpreted Bill Clinton's remark, intentionally.
I'm beginning to think that Bill, being the politician he is, was well aware of all of the holes in the stories Obama has created to dupe the public. Obama was fast and loose with the truth with that fantasy he created and claimed as the truth in his Selma speech. He was found out on that false story too. The Kennnedys had nothing to do with his father coming over from Kenya, but that didn't keep him from trying to make people think he was the heir to Camelot with that fake story.
Oh, and one more thing. Obama's good friend Oprah, also a long time member of that church, only recently slunk away. She probably was afraid she'd lose too many of her white women viewers if people noticed her attending while the story is still hot. Of course, who knows how much she has given to that church through the years. An even more interesting question would be how much she has managed to give Obama. On a website listing some of Obama's donors I saw the names of a lot of people listed as unemployed students who had donated $4,600. How do unemployed students donate that kind of money? Obama still won't 'fess up to his true connections to Rezko and all of the money Rezko raised for him. It's all a tawdry mess, but hopefully more and more people will wake up before we wind up with another big mistake as president.
Thanks, Greta. Keep up the good work.
Obama might or might not make a good president. Ideology aside, all indications I see are yes but only time can tell. He couldn't possibly be any worse than the moron who is there now. But he was not handed his privilege and position on a plate and, unless he is that "anti-christ" like one moron said, he obviously has lots of ability and is a decent person who cares about and works hard for the people he servers. I only scanned the first few screens of responses, Greta, but it appears that they are from some of the most ignorant, chauvinistic, racist, paranoid, narrow-minded and just plain mean-spirited bastards I have heard from in awhile. Makes me ashamed to be an American. And Greta, if these are indeed "your people", you are no better.
