Greta, Rev. Wright deserves more scrutiny. He should be put side by side with OBAMA and ask them all the question they need to answer in front of camera. These OBAMA supporters are very obvious that they are so scared about people knowing their true color. The CNN reports said, Rev. Wright whould waited after the primaries so he couldn't hurt OBAMA's campaing!!! What is that? These CNN supposedly called themselves reporters are BIAS and needs to back working in the FACTORY.. THEY ARE ILLITERATE... OF BEING A NEWS PEOPLE. THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT A BALANCE REPORTING IS.. THEY ARE IGNORANT AND ILLITERATE PEOPLE... SORRY BUT THEY ARE!!!
Wright is a big dopey whiner just like Obama. When things are brought out in the open about their hate, corruption, acquaintances with Ayers and Fahrakhan, million man march, etc etc they don't like it so whine and cry out "racism". Makes me sick! I've never heard any preacher at any church I've attended spout those kind of hate words, EVEN IN "SNIPPETS". Out of context! He must think America is stupid! Well, only those that believe their crap! Wright IS NO MAN OF GOD! Vial, sickening, scum!
PS - Excuse my rather "un-Christian" comments. It just gets me so angry that these people claim to be men of God when they preach racial hate. And Obama, 20 year member, gives $26,000 to the Church last year, AND DOESN'T KNOW WHATS GOING ON? Just gets a body all riled up that they think we actually believe this junk. Its the most frustrating and racist Presidentail race I've ever seen. When Alan Keyes was running you didn't hear all this junk. Of course Mr. Keyes IS a MAN OF GOD. I guess thats where the difference lies. Too too conservative and too too Christian.
Obama and Wright are corrupt lying, big piles of pig sh it!!!
His words speak for themselves. VIDEOTAPED.
I love how all Obama supporters say that Wright's comments were "taken out of context". But I have yet to hear someone tell me in what context exactly these comments would be appropriate. I'm still waiting for the right "context".
how can the results be 12% to 96%, that doesn't make sense?
I personally feel, that unless we can see what the WHOLE preach was about, not just a small tidbit, we can not judge, We have no idea if what he said was in response to something, or if he was leading into it. I do not believe we can judge him over the MANY years he has been a reverend, based on 2-3 small video clippings.
Never heard such anti-American.....anti-White blasphemy from the pulpit. The "Reverend" needs to shut his pie-hole......Obama too.....
I wouldn't touch Wright or Obama with a 10 foot spear!!!!!!!!
Chris: Are you kidding? Do you think "G.. Damn American" in ANY context or thought is ok? Your sure liberal!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If the media wasn't so intent on electing a dem both Obama and Clinton would be revealed to the public as the liars they both are. Both change positions when politically expedient and never get challenged. Wright is a racist to the core. And so is Obama! What is even more distressing is that the libs are so blinded by their political desires they don't even care!!!
That's what all liberal, hate mongers say. Standard defense,and to think a minister such as this, is Obama's spiritual advisor? Kind of scary the thought of having this man as a possible leader ... morally hateful and void of love for this country and the citizens in it , isn't it? Hopefully people wake up to Obama and those he surrounds himself with.
Because of OBAMA (just a trouble ahead,the latest Hamas favor) it will tell you to vote for McCain. I do not want to hear about Obama and corp. anymore and I do not believe how many people are blind and voting for Obama. It tells me many people do not have a brain..do not think correctly..just wanted CHANGE? For what? Start thinking and help yourself and country before will be to late.
The Rev. Wright needs to understand that most people in this country understands "English" and any way you spend it , he can't CHANGE WHAT ON THE TAPE.
george: I think each (yes - no) is based on 100%
I do not think they have scrutinized Reverand Wright nor Barack Obama enough. It is unbelievable that a man can say the things Rev. Wright has said about the United States of America .

Even if my own father, whom I dearly love, were the Pastor of a church that I had attended my entire life, I would LEAVE the congregation. What "man of God" stands up and takes God's name in vain????? He is sickening and so is Obama. If he is as intelligent as he claims to be, it should not have taken him twenty years to realize what Rev. Wright is all about.

If you thoughtfully listened to Bill Moyers' Journal tonight, it would be very hard to find Rev. Wright as a corrupt, lying ***of pig **** as "they lie" said. Mature, thinking Americans should be able to understand and respect others' viewpoints, especially those who claim to be followers of Jesus Christ. As an older white woman, I think Rev. Wright makes exceedingly valid points regarding Native Americans, African Americans, etc. The truth hurts just as much now as it did during Christ's lifetime. We know what happened to Jesus by supposedly righteous men. Can we really cast the first stone?

He can't deny what he said period. It indeed may be strung together comments. But each comment on it's own merit is destructive.
Whites introduce aids to the African American community?!
God damn America ...
We bombed Hiroshima, we bombed Nagasaki, and we nuked far more than the thousands in New York and the Pentagon, and we never batted an eye. How many Americans dies at the hands of the Japanese? etc.
It's simply hate America for allowing us to be free. What country would Rev. Wright prefer to live in anyway?
I really don't know what to think of the people that can't see just how Obama thinks. In my opinion the press has been way to easy. It is obvious that he and his wife have no respect for the US they are just in this for the money and the power. Look how rich Wright has gotten preaching his filth.
I am grateful that circumstances are such that Senator Obama and Reverend Wright are able to reveal who they really are. Although I do not fully understand what they believe and why, it is clear to me that at the very least this is a bunch of nonsense and I have no problem dismissing them and paying no more attention to the matter.
greta the reverend needs to take long hard look into his heart, i honestly believe he knows what he is saying, but he is up to his neck in you know what
and is looking for a way out...smoking guns don't lie....maybe he should think
twice before he opens his mouth
my Grandfather was a baptist minister, he only preached love,for god, christ and your fellow man, black or white or other. Rev Wright, ( if you can all him a Rev) preaches hate, against whites, america, the us goverment. How can Obama say he is not a racist or that he loves his country. I am white, but I would vote for a black man or woman if I thought they would be a good president , for all the people.... not some of the people. I think the X Lt. Govoner of Md would make a great president and he is a black man
Rev. Wright is correct. The corruption and utter misrepresentation of his life (en masse) by the media is obvious. Don't believe me, just look at the brainwashed comments above. Congratulations, media. You've asked those whom you spoon feed how they like their food. And they LOVE it! Let's be clear, the media is delivering fact, but not truth. If you don't know the difference well, then, you probably think you know the truth about Mr. Wright. But what you really have is five sound bites parading in a closed loop as truth. I'm saddened our populous isn't more broad thinking.
Why aren't either the Rev. or Obama answering the real issues? They both tend to change the subject, or turn in around into something else...ie., Obama's March speech, and the Rev's conversation with Bill Moyer. What DO you believe? And to Obama...which of these statements that you NOW disagree with (FINALLY), what exactly do you believe/think about these exact things the Rev. said in his "snippetts"? ALSO.... WHY DOES THE MEDIA ALLOW IT ? NO OTHER CANDIDATE WOULD GET THIS PREFERENCIAL TREATMENT THAT THE PRESS HAS GIVEN OBAMA, PRETTY MUCH THROUGHOUT MOST OF THIS CAMPAIGN> THEY AREN"T DOING THEIR JOB> IF IT WERE ANYONE ELSE, THEY WOULD HAVE DUG INTO THEIR RECORD and etc., LONG AGO!!!
I agree with Chris, and I just finishd watching Rev. Wright interviewed on PBS. These few comments have been taken totally out of context and were well explained during his interview. He has done much good and is a man of God. I hope he is blessed with many more years of service at his church.
Obama Grandmama: What Bible do you read from? I've never heard any kind of words such as this from Jesus mouth. If you were a "follower" of Jesus Christ you wouldn't be sticking up for 2 men who believe the killing of the unborn is ok! Wrights suppose to be a pastor, preaching the word of God. You show me where Christ thinks the killing of babys is ok. Before you go preaching to us you better know what your talking about and what the WORD OF GOD REALLY IS ABOUT! I guess when it comes to "Christian Values" we're just not as "mature" as you. I would rather stick up for the teachings of Christ than what "your truth" is!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Out of CONTEXT?? What possible "context" could justify those words? NONE. What he said, he said. I don't care WHAT context it was in. They are HIS words and he is responsible for them. Now he must pay the price for those words. He is a minister. No Christian minister I've ever heard in over 50 years, inside or outside the church, has ever spoken like that, black, white, hispanic, asian, and I've heard sermons from them all. What Obama continues to say now, no matter how eloguent, will define where HE stands. And we better be listening!
I think what Wright said about America and white Americans' was unjust, untrue, unfair and said for devious reasons.
Jeepers Kathy....get your head out of your BUTT! Wright is a hate monger.
ERIC MASON: Such arrogance. As if we are stating are valued opinions based on 10 words. SOME of us actually do a little more investigating. I guess if your stupid enough to believe hes a great man and his words are taken out of "context" you have that right. Just quit patting your self on the back as if your so much smarter than all here. Your quite the minority so I wonder just who is the big dummy and isn't doing his homework.
Unless the speech began with, "The following words are not true" or something to that nature, it doesn't matter what the rest of the sermon was about. He put too much body language and excitement into those tidbits.
Gretta, i am from Buffalo, NY and lived in the majority black east side. This is not a surprise to white peple that this kind of hate speech is taking place in black churches. There is a small weekly paper called " the Challanger " that comes out weekly and can be found in the " innner city " deli's and says all the same things that Wright cries about. NO surprise to us who know. He is "Reverend Wrong ".
Jeremiah Wright is a bigoted, racist, anti-American black. B. Hussein is obviously like-minded or he would not have listened to this man for 20 years. What a disgusting pair. It is high time these two were exposed.
KATHY: Explained or made excuses for? Come On. IF you or ERIC MASON attended any type of Church you'd know this type of behavior or words are just not spoken IN ANY CONTEXT. But, since you aren't obvious CHurch goers, your obviously un-informed and can't make any type of valid point. I bet Hitler could come up with many words taken out of "context" or give reasons for why he murdered people. When ever people do things that their brought on the carpet for they have a million excuses for their crappy behavior. Give me a break!
What I heard was a lot of hate being spewed from a pulpit. The Rev. Wright and his flock may not be muslim but their message is the same; hate America and tell absurd falsehoods about my Country without one iota of proof to back it up. If any of that stuff was true that he and his racist cult believe the government would have been brought down by it. I think they are angry that it is looking a little better in Iraq for Freedom to be victorious over theocratic enslavement and UBL and his minions have been knocked back on their heels again.
Barack is NOT guilty by association. How many Catholics sat in their pews during the church sex scandal and never walked out. When you're in church, we blindly follow, we don't question, after all, WE"RE in CHURCH~ why don't you trot out some clinton associates, Monica, Gennifer Flowers, Paula Jones, Juanita Broderick, the entire vast right wing conspiracy people , the quetionable donors, the chinese/saudi friends of bill, etc. And, too bad you can't bring out the dead people who have ended up dead because they got in the clinton's path. Snap out of it...move on....
TONY: Very interesting. Living in a small town I was rather shocked at Wrights words; never heard 1 word such as he spewed ever in any Church. So in big citys this is normal? AND may I ask, WHO ARE THE REAL RACISTS? hmmmmmmmmmm
The Rev Wright is the most vile man I have ever heard call himself a Rev. and Obama speaks,says nothing,the words drip like honey from his lips and his followers eat it up!!!!
Vicky Jones: The comparison is absurd. I never heard any Priest stand up and state "I'm screwing the alter boys", and than go on with his sermon, and al the people just sat in their pews and smiled. COME ON NOW! This was done behind closed doors and without the parishoners knowing, NOT LIKE Wright who was heard by all. Dorky comparison, reallllly!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The media has been fair to Reverend Wright and beyond fair to Obama. There needs to be more scrutiny of Obama and his ties to known terrorists. Anyone who claims to know nothing about the hate-speech of his pastor of twenty years (when those sermons are for sale at the church) is simply an idiot or a liar. Obama's associations with racist hate mongers and fervent anti-American terrorists should show Americans the kind of "change" he is seeking.
And one MORE thing. Rev Wright...STOP WHINING. STAND UP. Admit that those rantings were reprehensible. HUMBLE yourself. It will go a lot further towards your credibility than whining about "context", fairness. and political agendas.
I was under the impression that integrity is a key characteristic of a pastor. Rev "Wright" may need a name change...could I suggest Rev. "Wrong"!!
I truly believe there is more to Rev. Wright and Obama . More will come out hopefully before it is to late . If this Rev. Wright's stupidity had came out before all the other primaries ,we would had a nominee already.

Iresent being called a racist just because I do not like Sen. Obama.I think both he and his wife are elitists.I don't accept his explaination of why he stayed in the church for 20 years.The anti semetic sermons by Rev.Wright have been deeply hurtful to me.I will stay home rather than vote for Obama.

Greta,
I watch the program on PBS tonite on Rev Wright. I came away with how the media portrayed Rev Wright as the Devil in reality he is turely a very good paster. I am ashame of Fox News, I have been a Fox News customer for years and a Republican. I truely am going to which to Obama.

I really can't understand the Liberal point of view. Obama who wants "change"...and Hitlery who wants to give everybody everything. It's a shame with how many millions of GOOD people in this country, we have to have the 3 worst choices for President ever. I'm voting for Mickey Mouse.
This wouldn't be the first time the media has attemted to sway the opinion of the American people by offering bits and pieces of someone's speech. The ugly truth is that most Americans don't realize they are being persuaded. Their logic is actually being displaced by their fears. Most would rather embrace "keeping things the same" than be progressive in their thinking. If you don't mind your spirit and your tax dollars being spent inappropriately or if you really are unaware --- vote to keep things the same!DM
What a joke! The "Reverend" who the world has seen on tape preaching hatred is now whining about being the "object of hatred." Where did Bill Moyers come up with such "Hardball" questions from, Chris Matthews? I don't know how the democrats can keep defending Wright or Obama with a straight face! And to think PBS receives funding from the taxpayers! GJAC
No Way! Rev. Wright is an unthankful hate filled person. He is a God hater & he hates America & all it stands for! Wake up people.......you are blinded!
NO OBAMA FOR ME OR MY FAMILY!!!!
Surprised, you answered your own question. Yes in bigger cities this is the norm. If your implying that i am a racist go for it words can't hurt me. I know the truth.
Vicky Jones: So who likes Clinton. Move on??? The Presidency is the most powerful position in the country. Some of us think its actually important enough to seek and know ALL the truth. Be my guest and hide your head in the sand, but the vast majority of us actually care about who runs our country!!!!!!!!!! I guess morality is not high on your list!
Obama Grandma & Kathy---------- What context is Hate speech OK? I assume if you feel the way you do, then you
have no problem with David Duke or the Grand Wizard of the KKK. Do you think what David Duke and the Grand
Wizard of the KKK say is also always taken out of context? We never get to hear the entire speeches they give either,
only snippets. I guess according to the way you think, David Duke and the Grand Wizard of the KKK should be cut
more slack too, because they really are OK guys.
If this were reversed ie: David Duke, I believe the majority of whites would be outraged. Just because you once served in our millitary doens't mean your a patriot or loyal to this country. Just look at John Murtha.
Yes, the sound bytes are very different from the full sermon. For all of those who voted I suggest that they watch the Bill Moyers program. We should not bring such targeted and negative attention to a church. Of course, some statements could have been better stated but even still the full context needs to be taken into account.
God Damn America? Give me a break.
Man, it amazes me that people are so ready to judge someone based on a very few minutes of video tape. Do they know that President Clinton invited Rev. Wright to pray with him in the White House? Do they know that Wright was a US Marine? Oh, wait, these are all bigots at this site, so I guess I shouldn't be surprised at all.
I don't feel the media has been unfair. The fact is if you said it once or a million times, the fact is you said it. Now take responsibility for words and actions.
James
Tony: Gee, why so defensive!!!!!!!! Why would I think your a racist! I suppose its what "you" might expect if you disagree with Obama or Wright. I've had the same thing happen to me, But that wasn't my point. I was ACTUALLY interested.
92% VOTING SIMPLY BECAUSE OF SKIN COLOR. IN ASKING AMONG MY BLACK FRIENDS TO DEFINE O'BAMA'S CHANGE,NONE KNOW BUT SIMPLY BEGIN TO ATTACK GEORGE BUSH AND WEALTHY REPUBLICANS.
MY NEIGHBOR ACROSS THE STREET WAS A "RIOT". ALTHOUGH HE COULD'NT DEFINE ANY POSITIONS, REPARATIONS, DISTRIBUTION OF WEALTH, AND ADDITIONAL ENTITLEMENTS WERE AT THE TOP OF HIS AGENDA.
EVERY BLACK WHO I HAVE HEARD DEFINE RACISIM, SAY THAT RACISIM LIES WHO THOSE WHO HAVE THE POWER. IN THAT CASE I WOULD SUGGEST THEY GO TO FLORENCE AND NORMANDY DRIVE IN SOUTH CENTRAL LA., HARLEM IN NEW YORK, OR AROUND THE LOOP IN CHICAGO. BLACKS POSSESS ALL THE POWER IN THESE AND MANY OTHER AREAS'S IN THE U.S.
I COACHED BASEBALL IN THE LITTLE LEAGUE FOR 16 YEARS AND USUALLY HAD, AND STARTED 5 BLACK CHILDREN ON A REGULAR BASIS.OF COURSE, FOR NO PAY. THESE CHILDREN NOT ONLY PLAYED BALL, BUT WENT 150 MILES TO BRAVES GAMES,CAMPED AND WATER SKIED. I DON'T DESERVE A PAT ON THE BACK FOR DOING THE RIGHT THING, BUT NEITHER SHOULD I HAVE TO WALK AROUND FEELING LIKE I HAVE ANY APOLOGIES TO MAKE. MY GRAND PARENTS IMMIGRATED FROM GERMANY IN1906. BLACK CITIZENS NEED TO GET OVER THE PAST AND DEAL WITH THE PRESENT AND FUTURE. OTHERWISE THE RACIAL DIS-HARMONY WILL LAST FOREVER. THE SHIETS AND SUNNIS, KURDS,ETC.

Wright said, the American Government intentionally infected black Americans with aids, he minimized the deaths of over 3,000 individuals, from around the world in the World Trade Center on 9/11 and referred to "US" Americans as no different than middle east terroists. Who incedently, savagedly commandered our commercial aircraft, slit womans throats and made martyrs of themselves. Wright's IS THE VOICE OF A RADICAL EXTREAMIST. A voice that Obama (possibly our future president) paid 20 years of respect to and admires. Are all of those super delgates listening?
So much hatred and ignorance from reading all of these posts. As a black man I must say that the only thing I found controversial in his sermon was the AID's statement. Everything he said is absolutely true for all of you who actually watched the entire sermon.
There is a cultural difference between white america & black america. I think white america needs to get a reality check on African American history or take a black studies class because everything he named from the history of our country is a fact and is very true outside of the AIDS statement.
Just like he said in his sermon people are ignorant to GOD and Goverment. Listen to his message watch the whole sermon and not the sound bites. And if any of you on here that have posted comments and call yourselves CHRISTIANS should be ashamed of yourselves for judging knowing very well that he is a god fearing loving man.
You guys got him all backwards and are just ignorant. He is walking in those shoes as a believer even as those choose to cast stones at him.
Look, we have freedom of speech in this country so Rev. Wright can say whatever he wants. What bothers me is the hypocracy of it all. Rev. Wright and Obama get a pass because they are Black (that right I said it). Obama was one of the first to jump on Imus for his sound bite and any of you Obama supporters just try and tell me that a white candidate associated with a white pastor who made anti - black statement (whether out of context or not) would still be running for President. It's a double standard and it makes me sick. Racism is wrong period and should not be tolerated within any race. If you want a color blind world the rules have to apply both ways.

For any person to" God damn America" is wrong in ANY context. I, too, am waiting for Jeremiah Wright's "right" context of his message to be revealed since he is saying it is being heard in the "wrong" context. I hate how these liberals yell racism at every opportunity. Liberals are the real racist. . Truth is, black people hate white people and don't be fooled by believing this hate speech only happens at Obama's church. This white hate speech is yelled from black pulpits on a regular basis. To [prove the point that liberals are rasist, blacks are voting for Obama because he is black; not because he is qualified. Voting for a candidate because he is black is being a racist. If a white candidate had Obama's thin resume, he would be laughed off the campaign trail. So yes, I believe that the media is giving Wright and Obama a free pass and Wright says the press is not being fair! Also, would the real Jeremiah Wright please stand up? He sure is mellow voiced when speaking with Bill Moyer compared to his bellowing angry voice from the pulpit. That is called damage control. Any Christian true to his/her belief would never return to a church that preached hatred. Wright is calm now because he is having to answer his racist comments and wants to appear loving and wounded. Wright should expect controversy because he is a racist, his association with Fahrakham. Ayers, the Million Man March, etc.
Sorry for going on but I have had enough. How stupid can these Obama supporters be? By the way, I live in PA and voted for Lynn Swann for governor and backed Alan Keyes on his presidential campaign. I vote for the best, most honorable candidate - skin color does not matter. I am not voting for Obama because he is a socialist and his wife is really, really scary.

DAVE CAVANAUGH: Good, switch to Obama!!!!! When you attend Church this Sunday, just don't forget that Obama thinks the killing of the unborn is an ok thing. Something to think about when your praying to the God you supposedly love. OR maybe you don't!

Surprised, sorry i misunderstood.
I'm livid, only whites are racist???!!! The white vote has been divided up amongst all the candidates - at the beginning and continues to be divided amongst all the candidates....82% of the Black vote was for Obama in the beginning and now he has 97% of the Black vote...they are NOT racist???!!! The White voters casting their vote for another instead of Obama - ARE Racist?!!! Give me a break! I'm sick of it! Rev. Wright spews anti-white racist rhetoric at the top of his lungs for 30 yrs around the world and Obama sat in that church for 20 yrs....yet they are not considered racists?! Trinity Church & Rev Wright bundled those sermons and sold them in the church store as Rev Wrights' best sermons. No one is taking Rev Wright out of context! Snippets or otherwise - he has numerous quotes on the subjects to prove he was saying precisely what people interpreted him as saying...Rev. Wright is upset because those outside the church heard it...that is where the out of context comes in! Shhhh...it's okay inside the church...not okay outside the church!
Obama knew where his Rev stood on issues...the whole community knew!
Obama is smart, he has had political aspirations for a long time and would have made his choices carefully, knowing it could bite him later. Obama's character is linked to those people he associates with. If Obama was running as a 'white' candidate - not a candidate of 'mixed color', this conversation would not still be being discussed, he would have had to drop out of the Presidential race months ago...Obama is running for the office of the United States President. Obama is being given a pass, Rev. Wright, Bill Ayers, Hammas, etc. are ligitamate concerns and should be delved into deeper. This is not because of race...he wants to be our President! We have a right to know who he is, his morals, values, where he stands on the issues. Obama is like the 'Teflon Kid'.
You want to get beyond the 'race' issue? Treat all people the same...there is not a separate standard depending on a person's ethnicty. Words that would not be tolerated coming out of the mouth one race...should not be tolerated coming out of another's mouth - just because they are of a different ethnicity...same goes for the people they associate with. It matters that Obama attended Trinity Church and associated with Bill Ayers to jumpstart his political career! Why did he choose these people, cater to their ilk to gain their supporters? Why didn't he choose to actually be the person he preported to be in his speeches? America would love to have had a President like that! Obama has clay feet.
No Way! Rev. Wright is an unthankful hate filled person. He is a God hater & he hates America & all it stands for! Wake up people.......you are blinded!
NO OBAMA FOR ME OR MY FAMILY!!!!
REPUBLICAN CONSERVATIVE: PERFECT!!!!! I TOO supported Alan Keyes! Blacks are so racist against Whites its beyond belief but they get away with it! SICK OF IT SICK OF IT SICK IF IT
Not all of Rev. Wright's comments are offensive. He was not against whites at all. He was simply expressing how wrong America has been towards some issues. Just because we are Americans, we should not hold our mistakes and wrong doings upright. Other countries love how we, as Americans are divided...this shows us as a "Weak Country".
How can someone who calls themself a preacher spew such hatred. And how can people beleive him that he doesn't talk hate. Maybe it's good he is retired. He can use the time to actually study his Bible and the words of Jesus.
Tony: Thats ok. I think we sometimes get so much static because of the truth about african americans and their hate, that we are NOT allowed to defend it. No Problem! I'm not informed enuf. I'd like to READ some of that stuff. THe media only reports about the so called abuse of blacks BUT NEVER EVER about whites. SICKENING!
Obama and Wright are, as they say in Germany, a pair of miserable, corrupt, lyikng, racist Phuckenjurkauf's.
If Rev Writght was white he'd be accused of being KKK. But b/c hes black he gets a free pass for preaching hate. Until....
How can you people call this man (using the term very loosly) reverand? He is as far as anyone can be from being 'reverand. A man of GOD Preaches "THE WORD' from the pulpit! Love not hate I hope this man (loosly again)comes to repentance.
Pastor, I thought he was a Pimp. Why is he building a Multi Million dollar house in and all white development if he hates whites so much?
REPUBLICAN CONSERVATIVE: Right On.....If Obama was a white man with these same credentials, he could not get elected as "dog catcher".
Mr. Wright waited too long to resurface. Now he's speaking nonsense. He's just hateful and arrogant. He doesn't deserve his title REVEREND!
Mr. Wright, both of the Obamas, the clinton gang and the rest of the liberals that consider true, patriotic Americans as the "uneducated", "ignorant" and unintelligent and unwashed masses, should take a step down to reality. It is the same story with them as the story "the emperor has no clothes"!!!
Their intentions are naked and we the people see them for who and what they are, it has nothing to do with race, religion or gender, and everything to do with character, integrity and honor...they have none!!
They have had the world given to them for free by the country that they hate. Their combined unbridled lust for power has blinded them to the reality that words have definitive meanings and we all understand clearly the language which we and they speak. There is no need for them to insult us by parading an endless display of morons posing as intellectuals to "interpret" what this bunch says...we get it loud and clear.
We should mark this month on the calendar as a month when the media almost got it right by actually reporting what was actually said, rather than some lame summarization produced by the handlers of these anti-American, spoiled rotten brats. It is refreshing to see the media present the speakers actually spewing their hatred, rather than covering for them.
The coverage of Mr. Wright has been very fair, surprisingly accurate. It would be nice to know what has not yet been revealed to the public about all three candidates. In my opinion, none of them are qualified to hold the office of President of the United States.
We as Americans, should be ashamed that we have allowed ourselves to be forced to pick through such a collection of societal trash that is presented to us as candidates as we near the election.
Rather than demand that only those persons most qualified, without criminal, ethical and moral questions surrounding them, be allowed to represent us, once again, we have settled for the worst amongst us to run for our most sacred office. Shame on us, and shame on them.
As a former Marine, I am appalled that Mr. Wright cites his service as somehow qualifying him to practice such racial hatred, and spew his disgusting anti-American rhetoric. Like Sen. Murtha, Mr. Wright is a disgrace to America, to the United States Marine Corps, and to those people that support them.
Whats surprising is look at Gary Hart. He cheated on his wife and had to drop out of the Presidential race. Of course, he's white. NOW we have an African American who is associated with radicals, attends an anti white church (look at the churchs web), doesn't seem to think small town America is worth much, etc etc. If Gary Hart were black he'd have still been in the race. I'm not saying that cheating on ones wife isn't bad, but to compare that to Obama. Just AMAZING! Racist? YOU BET IT IS! AND ITS AGAINST THE WHITE RACE!
NOT ONLY HAVE YOU BEEN UNFAIR- YOUR NETWORK IS FULL OF RACIST RHETORIC AND ITS ASHAME THAT IN THIS DAY AND AGE THAT HATRED TOWARDS AFRICAN AMERICANS STILL EXISTS.
BOTTOM YOU DON'T LIKE OBAMA BECAUSE OF HIS SKIN COLOR. IT DOESN'T HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH WHAT HIS PREACHER SAID, WHO HE SAT ON THE BOARD WITH OR WHATVER IRRELEVANT THING YOUR NETWORK WANTS TO DIG UP..... THE ONLY THING HE IS GUILTY OF IS BEING A BLACK MAN
REV WRIGHT IS A FORMER MARINE AND I DON'T BELEIVE THAT MAKES HIM UNPATRIOTIC- IF ANYTHING IT MAKES HIM MORE CREDIBLE BECAUSE HE HAS SEEN FIRST HAND THE DEVASTATION CAUSED BY AMERICA.
UNPATRIOTIC IS PUTTING SOLIDERS IN HARMS WAY TO FIGHT AN UNJUSTIFIED WAR. UNPATRIOTIC IS NOT TAKING CARE OF THEIR FAMILIES WHILE THE SERVING THEIR COUNTRY. UNPATRIOTIC IS NOT SENDING OVER ENOUGH EQUIPMENT SO THEY CAN BETTER DEFEND THEMSELVES. UNPATRIOTIC IS ALLOWING INJURED SOLIDERS TO HAVE TO BE SUBJECTED TO POOR HOSPITAL CONDITION AND THEN DENYING SOME OF THEM DISABILITY

I recognize "Rev. Wright". He represents the black KKK just with different robes. He is certainly a man of hate, lies, and violence. The only difference between Confederate Brigadier General George Gordon and Rev. Wright is the color of their skin.
As long as there are men like Rev. Wright race relations in these United States will continue to move race relations backwards. Dr. King's vision of black and white children holding hands will never come true if those of Wright's ilk are the leaders of the black community. In fact, as long as there are people who think like Wright, either white or black, this country will not be able to live my it's founding principle that "All men are created equal".
I cannot vote for a member of the KKK. I cannot vote for a rasist. I cannot vote for a man that says one thing on the political stump and is in his heart a racist. I can not longer trust that O'Bama is an honest man. I cannot vote for O'Bama.

If OBoma doesn't understand Rev Wright is a committed racist, or worse, what
kind of judgement logic does he have, certain ? This is judgement of the
worst kind, certainly not the leader of the free world..
As some one once said you cannot fool all the people all the time.
The only one I see with any integrity is John McCaine.

RAGEINNC: Your an idiot. I'm sorry, but you really really are. RACIST TO THE CORE! Do you have a thought process? Ah-Hah!!! You must be of the black race. Thats what you guys do; anytime the white guy doesn't agree with you - its about race. Usually its about money, entitlements or jobs. Don't get no money on here so save it!

This man needs to go back to his real home land Africa. I hope he knows that over there, they will hack him into pieces and drag him through the streets and feed him to the dogs.( Hope they "the dogs" don't get sick). Hate Hate Hate and they wonder why any other color American's are scared of these hate mongers.

RAGEINNC: I just bet YOU'VE never ever served in the Military. Well, my Dad and Husband have. People like you make me ILL! You'd probably hide under the bed RATHER than serve your country. Just spout your stupid words.

I am a Hillary supporter-truly, deeply and passionately. I am tired of the Wright issue. I don't llike the video of the comments that have been shown over and over and over. I am well aware of them as are most people who are following the primary. I think showing them over and over is only making theh primary more contencious. It puts Obama supports on the defensive. We need to look at the issues, experience and strength of the candidates. I am weary of the Wright video clips.
Tywannia: Church is NOT the place to speak about government. Its called seperation of Church and State and thats what gives Church's tax exempt status. Somehow Wright gets away with that too. Black Church, tax exempt, gets involved in Govt. and STILL gets tax exempt status. Would the white church? I think not!
4latte: BUT this is an ISSUE! It goes to the very morality, core and soul of the person running. For many of us that IS the most important issue. If a person doesn't have those things inside them, they will do NO GOOD at anything else.
OBAMA HAD A 20-YEAR PLAN
The MEDIA is not being unfair to Rev. Wright.
OBAMA is being unfair to Rev. Wright.
After using Rev. Wright and the Trinity Church for 20 years as a base for his political ambitions, Obama now has forsaken them.
Obama is not naive. OBAMA knew what he was doing.
Rev. Wright is correct. Obama is a "politician."
NO...Psalm 37.7-9..."be still before the LORD and wait patiently for him, do not fret when man succeed in their ways, when they carry out their wicked schemes. Refrain from anger and turn from wrath, do not fret it leads only to evil...for evil men will be cut off, but those who hope in the LORD will inherit the land..." Rev. Wright "frets" too much...
Maran Martell: So just because Wright was a Marine NOW makes him NOT a racist, hate spewing bigot? DUH! So who says they like the Clintons??? A few sound bites. Do You EVER attend a CHURCH? Probably not!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
4latte...Hillary is as bad or worse than Obama. As they say in Germany, Hillary is a corrupt, lying, criminal Phuckenkunt.
I'm a 7th generation UCC church member (From the Reformed church which
was one of the churches making the UCC in the 1950's)
It is time the world knows there's more to the UCC than Rev. Wright.
My ancestors came to North Carolina before 1750 and we are proud to
be Americans and would like to say "God bless America"
Reverend Wright, YOUR chickens have come home to roost.
I agree with "Linda". I, too, really like the x-lt gov of MD. He's a truly sensible guy. I am amazed that Rev. Wright thinks people with brains would believe his "sound bite" malarchy. Maybe his parishoners swallow that junk, but the rest of us don't. It's on video tapes that were sold by his church for crying out loud! Maybe he's mad at BHO and has come out of hiding to undermine his campaign. Why else wouldn't he just take a six-month cruise to stay out of the the limelight?! I am a believer in the exceptional quality of the country in which we live. Why else would so many want to be here and so many be so jealous of us that they want to tear us apart? Rev. Wright is no preacher that would keep me coming back Sunday after Sunday. I am no fan of liars.
Eva R. You seem like a nice person. My hope is that most of the people in the church are like you.
How did Obama ever get in the race for President? I don't believe he should be there with the company he keeps. I heard that behind his campain office it was lined with beer cans.I wonder if there were anti american flyers also!I am really worried about america if he gets in office.He thinks he is to good to take a picture with a white person., he is rude and so is his wife He is doing this to show black people can get in office,not because he knows anything about being President, he dosen't!
David Duke is a scum bag racist, however Wright make Duke sound like a charitable, loving man. Bill Moyers is a huge pile of steaming skunk dung, and a liar.
Well, that takes care of ALL the current democrat candidates for president now that Sen. Obama has proved he can lie almost as well as Sen. Hilary Clinton!
I wonder who the democrats have waiting in the wings to take their places at the last minute? One thing for sure, no self respecting American wants another liar like past President Bill Clinton in the White House!
Hopefully, now the Republican party will come together and ensure that once again they get control of government and keep control of the White House. We do not need the left wing crazy liars of the Democrat party in power ever again!
I am so tired of the media. Rev Wright is not the man running for president Sentor Obama is. And for the life of me I CAN'T understand what it is that Rev. Wright has said wrong even if someone is offended by it so what like they have never been offended BEFORE get over it what is important is being over shadowed by this non sense it make me sick I cant stand it. How can anyone tell a man what to say what happen to fredom of speech.I feel the media should find something else to talk about we as AMERICANS cant move on because the media keeps bringing it up if the people really want it to go away stop waiting on sentor Obama to say something bad about Rev.Wright and demand the media to talk about something else(the man is running for president he has a ton of other things to worry about) than this Rev.Wright scandle. As if Hilary Clinton is squeeky clean between her and the media I dont know who I cant stand the most, She is so fake I think she is a snake in the grass just waiting on the next thing to happen so she can attack, she is a wolf in sheep clothing trying to fool everyone in AMERICA, I have a theroy if Mrs Clinton was your supervisor Im almost positive she would be very disliked she is POWER HUNGRY and thats it. So my answer to the question is yes the media is using Rev. Wright to bring Sentor Obama down because they cant find anything else he has done no more wrong than she has but all you hear about is Sentor Obama and when the media does expose something she has done its like it happend but it didnt happen why is it not talked about over and over again "I dont". And why doesnt anyone find that strange "I dont" and when someone attacks the things she has said and done they are over talked and the subject is changed. My vote is for Obama and if he isnt on the ballot I dont think Im going to vot e because McCain nor Hilary have impressed me.
WHAT I WANT TO KNOW IS WHERE IS THE SCRIPTURE THAT HE SAYS IS IN THE BIBLE THAT SAYS (BLANK AMERICA)??????????? THAT IS CERTAINLY NOT IN THE BIBLE OF THE OLD AND NEW TESTAMENT OF JESUS CHRIST!!!!!!! MY REAL CONCERN IS THAT BARAK OBAMA WHO HAS A PASTOR, AND HIS FRIENDS AND ASSOCIATES, NOT TO FORGET HIS WIFE'S SENTIMENTS ARE NOT JUST ULTRA LIBERAL BUT HATE AMERICA. WHY THEN WOULD THIS MAN WANT TO BE PRESIDENT OF AMERICA????????????? THAT IS THE QUESTION!!!!!!!!!!!!!
No Maddrass taught kid would as an adult--salute the American flag or wear an American flag on his suit. Joining the UCC church was to camouflage a veil to hide his Islamic beliefs. Does any loyal American think he would ever attack any nation with a predominance with an Islamic population like Iran? You do know he wants an immediate withdrawal of Coalition troops out of Iraq. Is this difficult to figure out?
His pastor does administer a cult because many of the UCC leaders at the top deny basic Christian doctrines and advocate a Pro-Choice stance, meaning the right to kill the innocent unborn [Exodus 20:13]. Obama's pastor is a racist and his ordination should be revoked by wise church leaders. This is not the best forte to attracting new members in a denomination that is losing members by the thousands.
Nothing like inviting the Devil into the Church or Hussein into the White House office of leadership of our Judeo-Christian nation, founded on the Bible the Word of God. Oh, and was it not Hussein who took his oath of office on the Koran. We rejected a Mormon twice--Mitt Romney and his father as becoming our President of the United States. Are Americans fools to let this Islamic nominee anywhere near our national leadership?
When you vote; vote to protect our borders and our children and grandchildren for decades to come. THINK!!
Alan Keyes is the best choice and represents the Constitutional Party, but the liberal news media has pushed him off the political stage of debates.
McCain is a great candidate but is weak on border issues and is unwilling to repatriate all illegals back to South American under military escort.
Jennise
Can you not see that Rev. Wright is Obama's friend and rev. this is what helps define Obama life. If he is full of hate for America and white Americans this should scare everyone,as that type of person should not be the President. Hell that person should not be the garbage collector much less a senator or President. You and all the other Obama supporter scare the Hell out of me. Can you really be that stupid!
Jennise, I respectfully disagree with your statements. The reason "we" can not "get over it" is because their is no resolution..."we" can not get to the meat of this election because "we" are still questioning the validity of the candidates character...if "we" can not believe or support what one stands for "we" can not vote for this person to lead our country...so simple
Jennise ... If you can't figure it out, you are way to stupid to vote. Stay home and drink your kool-aid, but what ever
you do, don't talk anymore. Remember the old saying, "It is better for YOU to remain silent and appear to be a fool
than for YOU to open your mouth and remove all doubt.
Dear Mr. Martell.
I HAVE AMERICAN INDIAN BOOD IN MY VEINS. Now I believe that I have more standing here than any black. By the way, blacks were also involved in taking the lives and lands of the American Indian. Now I don't expect anything from anyone. I am tired of blacks complaining about something that no one living today had a thing to do with. I think it is a discrace to call Mr Wright a man of God. He is guilty of inciting blacks and promoting raceism and hate. I usually look at so called men of God who have become filthy rich by takeing
the money donated to the church by people who believe they are doing what God ask them to do, with a suspecting glare. It is not for me to judge, but it up to them to prove themself as honest. Something that I see in Mr Wrights case is not possible. Al Schister Scharpton is another one. I have worked in places where every one was black but me. I can tell you that I was shocked at how racest that blacks are. Why is it that an educated black man wants to live in a white neighbor hood. Why is it that a white person cannot walk safely in a black neighbor hood alone. Why is it that a white police officer is more likely to get shot or killed in a black neighbor hood. Why is it true that 90 % of crimes commited are by blacks. Why is it true that one of every four black men have spent time in prison? As I am now a police officer, I know this is true. Every one knows what I have said here is true. It is just unacceptable to vocalize the truth because you will get labled as a racest by the true racests, and no one will stand up with you or for you for fear of the same. Most of what I have read on this site is true. I also believe tha Obama is as close to being a communist as one can get without being regestered. I am tired of evryone claiming that they are being taken out of context when they slip up and reveal what they really think. Why is is not raceism when 97 % of the blacks vote for Obama? Hopefully someone can explain this. I also believe that many Democrates would vote for Cubas's Castro, and lose their freedom for the promise of something for nothing, rather than vote Republican because of their hate and a lack of the ability to rationalize clearly. Blind hate! I feel that If people like Mr. Wright continue on this same course, we are headed for
a grest racial devide with devistating results. Please, let us all be glade to be here, and ask God to bless us and our country. The greatest country in history. The country that I believe was a gift from God to the world, that has held freedom dear. God bless America!

a grest racial devide with devistating results. Please, let us all be glad to be here, and ask God to bless us and our country. The greatest country in history. The country that I believe was a gift from God to the world, that has held freedom dear. God bless America! That means blacks too!
To all Obama & Wright supporters. Wright is a racist, hate filled, Anti American. Obama is an Empty vessel, a liar and a con man snake oils salesman. I have decided no one shall be allowed to vote for Obama. That is final. If you don't like it ... TO BAD, that is the way it is. Hillary is a criminal, and a pig. No one can vote for her either.
To DW: Amen! You have said it all and very well. Let's hope and pray people really "pay attention and listen" before it is too late.
We know far to little about Obama and Rev wright gives us something to consider I for one can't believe someone you made those statments just made those type of comments just the time we have heard. no matter what anyone says your pastor has your ear. For Obama to be part of that church for 20 yrs. brings into question the image he projects, and causes us to need to know more about his inner circle the poeple who help form his thoughts and who he turns to for advice. My Pastor and my churrch is that to me. I have to believe we are all alike in that way
Greta,
I watced Moyer's interview of Rev. Wright this evening. Rev. Wright is using a Biblical approach to resolving life experiences of his congregation. When watching more of the sermon rather than the brief clips the media has latched onto has helped me, a true Conservative Republican and a devoted Christian, to take comfort in Reverend Wright's explanations. I now see the broadcastings of the clips as political in nature and serve a dishonest attempt to weaken Obama as a Presidental Candidate.
By the way, the black community at large has generally been opressed. Rev Wright uses scripture to encourage his congregation by using God's work that life's challenges can create character as well as strengthen their faith.

I saw the words ( in context ) that Rev. Wright used. I think it would be helpful if everyone viewed them in context and then form an opinion. You might want to view Bill Moyer's interview of Rev. Wright.
I believe the "Rev" sucks big time, Obama too.
I heard a guy on the radio talk about Obama's memoirs that were written many years ago and in them he wrote how much he hated white people. I wish I could remember the name of the man and the book that he wrote. Does anyone happen to know? Also, a must read is "Unlimited Access" by Gary Aldrich. It's a book about when the Clinton's were in the White House and how much they disrespected it. For instance, maybe it's just me but I think cock rings and plastic vaginas do not belong on a Christmas Tree. How childish is it to remove all of the W's on the computers.

Saying that what the Reverend (and I use that term loosely) Wright said was taken out of context is the lamest ass excuse I ever heard! Someone knows a ranting, racist, America hating bigot when you see one. I also know that Obama is an outright LIAR when he says that he didn't know this after 20 years in Wright's church. I think if the truth be known, Obama shares Witght's views! If he didn't know Wright's views, he's too dumb to be my President!
Since when is pointing out the truth racist or unAmerican? America and American culture is controlled, or propelled or whatever you want to call i by rich white people. I will go one further to say that the power has been with well to do white men. That is something many of a non majority race deals with everyday. If you listen to his complete sermons and to his complete interview, then only do yo have the educated right to criticize and give your opinion. How dare people call others ignorant when you rely on sound byes from the media. How do you expect people to take you seriously when you so obviously do not take the time to educate yourself, but blindly feed off a media frenzy. I do not agree with CNN saying that this was a bad time for rev right to speak out, that is just perpetuating the hype. If you actually listen to what he says you will see he was drawing an analogy to a biblical story as a cautionary tale of a way we should NOT react. All the media is doing in hyping up negative stereotypes that middle class people are not ready for cannot relate to and should fear Barack Obama when there is every real reason not to. I cannot believe that some people still believe some of the lies that have been perpetuated about his upbringing and religion. PEOPLE EDUCATE YOURSELVES AND STOP BEING SHEEP. GO TO THE SOURCE NOT SOME BIASED REVIEW. DO NOT LET THE BEST THING TO HAPPEN TO THIS COUNTRY PASS YOU BY BECAUSE OF IGNORANCE AND BIGOTRY.
I have read a few comments from those after hearing Bill Moyer on PBS
say that Rev wright was a great pastor. Not because of what he said but
how the media actual showed him speaking the hate message which were
sound bites and out of context. This is the epitome of what a really biased
TV network and Bill Moyer, Actor Rev Wright, Obama and the other enemies
of america do. They bite the hand that feeds them. The only good thing about
this is we are beginning to see some of the faces of America's enemies. The
worst thing about it is the millions that cannot tell the differenced between good and evil. Truth and Untruth. These are the one's who toot their own
horn until they believe they are smarter than you but proceed to show their
stupidity. Yes birds of a feather do flock together. You would think to qualify
to run for the "Office Of President" you would need to be an "American". I
believe Obama calls himself an "African American".
I agree with Sanda that if we had really known the kind of person Obama is, the voteing would be very different.
This man should be ashamed to say, "I have to say what I have to say as a pastor..." A "Pastor" does not lie. A "Pastor" does not seed hate in his/her church - from the pulpit or in speaking to his/her church in general terms! This man is an uneducated (U.S. Veteran) who is not in touch with America. Sadly, what this man spewed is NOT uniqe in that many (sadly) of our American black population actually agree with what this man spews! Remember that many of our black leaders (Jessie Jackson) have claimed that a black person cannot be a racist! However, I can say from very real and very personnal experiences in Dallas Texas that sadly many black people have treated white people who have had NOTHING to do with what happened nearly 100 years ago let alone 60 years ago, far worse than I have ever seen white people treat black people!
We, as Americans either black or white must begin to understand that there are many bad people of all colors just as there are many wonderful and good people of all colors! I do not hear many white people making race such an issue, however, you can rarely turn on the news without hearing about Al Sharpton, Jessie Jackson and many other of the so called "leaders" of the black people raising the color of our skin being the reason for everything from why a black man ends up in prison, why a black man is killed by the police, why black people are racially profiled and so on. No doubt, there are problems still in America but these problems will not be solved with so called leaders of the black people who continually teach how "wronged" "their" people have been treated and continue to be treated. Dr. Martin L. King did not stand for anything that these self proclaimed black leaders of today including Malcom X, stand for! Dr. King did not want black people to be treated with more respect, more services, more anything than white people. Dr. King stood for all of us be treated equally! EQUALLY. It is ok for a person like Don Imus to make a joke or make a mistake and get fired. How many times have we as a country because of how we have been spoon fed to "feel quilty" about America's past treatment of black people to allow black people who say such things as this "preacher" said and just look the other way? If one good thing has come out of all of this whole issue is that this man is one of the very first black men who is finally being held accountable for what he has said! Imagine the children whom this man has given an impression upon? Imagine their feelings for the Government and for white people? As if it is not difficult enough to grow up in this country today no matter if you are white or black or purple or green!
I could go on and on but I will stop with this: Wake up America! We ARE ALL born equal and the color of your skin does not matter! If you continue to make it an issue, you are only seeding continual feelings of hate and discontent within both the black and the white cultures! This so called Rev. needs to appologize. He needs to beg God for forgiveness because God will forgive him only if he asks. He needs to also go out into the real world and see what really is happening in black communities. No one forces a black man to hold a gun and join a gang. No one forces anyone, black or white, to do a crime with which they will eventually do the time. You are not being treated badly by the media, for once in the history of our Country, the media is saying enough is enough!!!! Like the American people have been saying for many many years now!!! Enough is Enough!
Rev. Wright is a self-proclaimed man of God. Everything he says should be able to be taken at face value. He shouldn't be so worried about how the American people are viewing his blunt statements, because one day he will stand before God Almighty, and then will he have to answer to Him.
'Careful little tongue what you say!'
Since when is pointing out the truth racist or un-American? America and American culture is controlled or propelled or whatever you want to call it by rich white people. I will go one further to say that the power has been with well-to-do white men. That is something many of a non majority race deals with everyday. If you listen to his complete sermons and to his complete interview, only then do you have the educated right to criticize and give your opinion.

Nigros are all the same....CONS!!!!!
Rev. Wright had his own agenda. By spewing his hate for all those years, he managed to build a large congregation, that has paid for a 10,000 square foot house with a $10,000,000 credit line attached to it, all for Rev Wright. The sad thing is how many poor blacks gave money week after week, so Rev Wright could live in the lap of luxury. Barak Obama had his own agenda. He ignored the hatred and racism spewed in the church year after year because he needed these people to boost his career. He is friendly with Bill Ayres, he goes to the million man march with Louis Farrakhan, he blames Small Town America and implies they are racist because they begin to question if he has the right kind of judgement. Now he wants us to ignore it all and vote for him to be our next President. I can't and won't do that!
Rev. Wright used to appear on the Hallmark Sunday morning Worship programs several year back. Since I was recovering from surgery and subsequent illnesses, I always watched the services. His sermons would start with a good spiritual message but always deviated to his "hate" speech which is the subject of conversation today. There was interaction with the viewing audience and he was removed from the Sunday Morning Worship services because of his "hate" sermons.

What did he say that wasn't TRUE..... Don't hate your history and if you don't know it then you will repeat it.... People/media are caught up on a 2/3 second sound clips and all of a sudden Obama is a racist. I wish we would get back to the issues and figure out how we are going to stop our jobs from going overseas and how to stop the gas prices from reaching $5 a gallon. Our country is in a recession and for the last month all I've heard about is Rev Wright.... I'm bitter and fustrated and has decided to vote for none of the above because none of them are discussing the issues. Hillary and McCain both have skeltons in their closet as well as Obama but one of them will be our next president. Who do you chose??? Someone who would lie that she was under sniper fire or someone who has for years voted NO to aid people affected by Katrina or someone who by guit of association is considered racist? I haven't heard one word come out of Obama's mouth that would make anyone say he was racist. As a white woman I do believe that black americans are happy to see someone that looks like them in a position to become president and if he was Asian, Indian, or Mexican I believe they too would have the same support of people who look like them. Come on people ask the media to ask the canidates to loan us money for gas or food because when you're rich you can discuss other issues that don't concern poor white, black, blue, or purple Americans...Get back to the issues
I flipped through a bunch of different news channels and it was an echo of the same clip of Rev. Wright. True that i do not agree with the statements he made. But i thought the presidential race was with Obama not the Reverend. He was his Reverend and some of the things he said were apalling but those are his views not Obama's. Apparently he was in the church and sat through the whole sermon. That's following his religion with gusto! ha ha. But people have to look at Obama as himself not Obama as a man listening to his reverend's sermon.
I read many posts here excusing Reverend Wright's obviously false and inflammatory statements because in some areas he may have some "valid points" in his very critical view of American History. Since when do we valildate lies in one area because of valid statements in another area? Would you eat a sandwich mate of putrid bologna just because the bread was real bread? Reverend Wright has become very wealthy by preaching militant liberation theology, making speeches and selling tapes, and honoring men like Louis Farakahn. For him to say people are taking him out of context when he asserts that the US government invented the AIDS Virus with the explicit goal of killing African Americans is just patently ridiculous. He has made himself an icon in his community by standing behind the pulpit and creating an image of America that presents a very ugly picture of our country. Whe he is right, he is right. When he is wrong he is lying. Truth is not different based on our experiences or our struggles. Mr. Wright simply told several lies in his sermon and greater context cannot make them go away.
Looks like your blog needs some balance.
It's really a shame that FoxNews is so biased and yet calls themselves "fair and balanced." I mean, look at the venom in most of the posts here -- do you really think that is a true representation of the reactions to Rev Wright?
Well, I'll give you mine. First I'm an elderly white lady; but I support Obama totally. He is the only candidate that can even begin to pull this country back out of the mire that we find ourselves.
As far as Rev Wright, if I lived in Chicago, I'd love to have the opportunity to sit under a minister who could see deep truths that far too many people close their minds and hearts to see what's true. How can we ever move forward if we can never face up to where we've been. But even if you disagree with Rev Wright, it's so very wrong for you to try to say that WRight and Sen Obama's views mirror each other. I find it so sad that supposedly mature people try to put that kind of spin on such silliness as this issue and the lapel pin and all the rest. I'm sure i nyour hearts that you know better. But it's to promote the agenda you want to promote. Man, that's really something to pride yourself in, isn't it?
I have never blogged here before and I rarely watch your channel because of such mindless petty angry stuff that you guys go on and on about.
Well do your thing. It was silly of me to even hope that maybe after you heard Rev Wright, you would begin to see at least a little reason; but that was naive on my part. Flame away because I won't be checking back for any retorts.
racist blog, open your eyes, sinners will get their just rewards. that is what the Reverend is saying. If your christian as you say, you would know this.

I saw the Wright-Moyer interview and saw the clips in context. I now know for a fact that Pastor Wright is even a bigger more vile, dispicable, racist and anti American than I thought he was before. What an A ss hole. The man should be shunned by every person, with a working brain, on the planet.
yeah like we wont barrak hussen obama in the white house-and we go bomb arack to kill off saddam hussen to get him out of power.he will never be president mccain will be the next pressident cause hillary voters will vote for mccain i no that for a fact every one i know is for hillary here in ohio and they will elect mccain if obama is the dem-canidant.jerimach wright is a raciest and a white hater.and if obama was a real christain he would of left that raciest white hating church 20 years ago.

I know Jay. He told me he was going to post that. Jay is a white 22 year old very liberal man. He is also kind of nutty. Sorry Jay, but I just couldn't let you get away with posting that. Also, learn to spell.
Greta,
I always believed you to be a true journalist but I understand that when you make the paycheck that most people on television make, it will compromise the journalistic integrity of the most devout purist.
Minister Wright is being treated unfairly by the media that does not continuously discuss the horror of rape that continues to this day in the Catholic Church. Neither are the remarks of John Hagee, and Pat Robertson (who are always talking about killing or taking people out) repeatedly dragged through nightly, morning, and afternoon news reports.
There is a double standard in reporting on people of color that is obvious to all, but openly disregarded and disavowed by the very people using this vile practice.
Additionally your panel of "experts" is routinely stacked with people that are opponents of Minister Wright and Senator Obama, so they answer every question about the other candidates with. "Yes but what about Minister Wright," or, "He said bitter." This is not only unprofessional, but juvenile.
How does John McCain get to repeatedly embarrass himself and America in front of the world, and it is not still a daily story.
How does Hillary Clinton get to lie and get caught, and not one so called journalist called her a liar. How is that blatant lie not still a major issue in the news? How does she not get more reporting of her comments to her husband to "screw them Bill" about people that they felt did not support them enough.
And why does the propagandist media turn everything anyone says in favor of Obama into a "Racial Issue" but not when the Media itself kept telling white men not to vote for Obama by presenting it as if they were reporting on how these people felt.
It is funny that the "Media" wondered how Obama didn’t win a state he was supposed to lose by 25-30 points, when they were responsible for a barrage of negative coverage on Obama that supplemented the mean spirited campaigning by Hillary Clinton.
By framing a question in a negative way, and repeatedly telling people how they think about the information, the media is playing the propaganda game used in Marxist, and totalitarian countries. How does that make our media any different than those of Iraq, Iran, or other such countries?
I am totally repulsed by the lack of journalistic integrity in our country. I know that is why all TV signals will cost money soon. It is a direct attempt to keep the masses from getting information, and to get more control over who can disseminate that information.
I truly hope my comments make it on air, but I doubt they will, because truth is like garlic or silver to the forces of evil that control the media. I just could not be silent anymore.

Ken is also Jay, and is trying to look stupid on purpose. I know he can spell. He is trying to make it look like this blog is a racist blog used by uneducated white trash. Ken/Jay what name are you going to use next? You can spell correctly on your next post, it's not fooling anyone.
Some of you supporters of Reverend Wright are tripping over several of his lies and then asking where he is lying!! His whole black liberation theology is built on lies. His whole view of American history deals in lies. Here are just two of them.
1. The US government invented the AIDS virus. This one should be enough by itself!
2. The AIDS virus was specifically invented to kill African Americans. Pure lie.
3. The US government LIED about WMD's in Iraq. Faulty intelligence is not a lie. It is a mistake. A reverend certainly knows the difference.
4. The US government INJECTED black men with syphillis at the Tuskeege Institute. Half lie. They got it the old fashioned way. the inexcusable part was thay they were deliberately denied treatment so the advancement of the disease could be documented. Inexcusable, but not the same as having them injected on purpose.
5. Jesus was a poor black man living in a country contolled by RICH WHITE people. It thus follows that he was also EXECUTED by RICH JEWS and WHITE people. Don't you see the racism here? Jesus was poor, but he was a Jew, a semite. His death came because of sin done by people of every race. If Jesus shared some degree of black genetic material, it has not been historically established, and therefore should not be claimed in an affirmative statement in a sermon.
6. American is a place that systematically persecutes minority races, especially the black race. While there is historical truth in particular instances, there are far more people working in government and business and in ever part of society who want to see any vestiges of our checkered past reversed. Reverend Wright seems to believe that the best way to heal a wound is to pick at the scab on a regular basis.
A lie is a deliberate communication of falsehood. Whatever the motive, it is still lying. No matter how the lies appeal to your sense of sufferage, you must always guard against accepting carefully crafted lies along with truth. Reverend Wright knows perfectly well what he is doing. He also knows that most of the people he preaches to have so many grievences that they won't object to an inflammatory lie here and there. If America is such a horrible place for Black people, how does Reverend Wright explain his 10,000 square foot home on a golf course in a neighborhood where the people are seventy percent white and all are upper class? How did he manage to succeed against the evil establishment when he has made his living poking this evil system in the eye?
Reverend Wrights socialist gospel is based on false ideas about the original intent of the gospel and the teachings of Christ. It is a gospel shaped first in Latin America and then brought to American by Wright and others and adapted to the African American experience. He is a Christian Farakahn who does not hesitate to embellish his message to gain popularity among people who don't have the educational basis to oppose him, or don't care to. His ideas are dangerous precisely because they mix truth with absolute untruth. It is simply outrageous that he is crying that others are devious, when that is the perfect word to describe using the gospel of peace to deepen divisions.
I BLAME THE MEDIA FOR KEEPING ALL THIS RACE STUFF GOING. IT'S ALL BECAUSE THE REPUBLICANS TOOK OBAMA AS A JOKE. BUT WHEN THEY FOUND OUT DIFFERENTLY THEY HAD TO DIG UP SOME DIRT FROM SOMEWHERE. I THING A LOT OF WHITE PEOPLE ARE AFRAID THAT THEY MIGHT ONE DAY BE TREATED UNFAIRLY THE WAY BLACK PEOPLE HAVE SUFFERED MANY YEARS UNDER WHITE PRESIDENTS THAT PROBABLY WERE KKK MEMBERS THEMSELVES, IT'S UNDERSTANDABLE IF I HAD ANCESTORS WHO HAD ENSLAVED A RACE OF PEOPLE FOR FREE LABOR & PROFIT I WOULD BE AFRAID TO. IT AMAZES ME HOW WHITE PEOPLE TRY OVER LOOK A LOT OF THINGS SUCH AS, MOST BLACK PEOPLE IN THIS COUNTRY HAVE SOME WHITE ANCESTRY FROM SLAVERY DAYS A TRUTH NOT FICTION. YOU WILL NEVER HERE THAT TALKED ABOUT ON TV NEWS WILL WE? WE NEED A FORUM TO DISCUSS RACISM WHITE & BLACK WITH TRUTHS BEING TOLD AND NOBODY TRYING TO TALK OVER THE OTHER PERSON, AND SAYING HOW YOU FEEL FIRST AND FOREMOST, AND THEN DISCUSS THESE THINGS. IF THIS IS NOT DONE AND SOON I HOPE BLACK PEOPLE WILL SEE THE NEED TO BAND TOGETHER MORE ECONOMICALLY TO HELP THEMSELVES IN THIS COUNTRY AND NOT CONTINUE TO PATRONIZE WHITE ESTABLISHMENTS.

The facts are that many free blacks owned slaves. In New Orleans there were as many as 3000 free blacks that owned up to 30 slaves each. If you go even farther back in history, many Black Africans owned White European slaves and captured Blacks to sell into slavery. Bottom line, it doesn't matter who was enslaving who, it's all wrong. No matter who was doing it. It happened a long time ago and it's something that we must remember so it doesn't ever happen again. But after 150 years, if we don't move on, we will never have unity in this country. Rev. Wright was race baiting for his personal gain. The home he built is in a 90% White area. In a gated community, on a golf course. If he hates Whites so much, why did he build there. Why didn't he build by his congregation.
Some are asking what Reverend Wright has to do with O'Bama. Some ask what racist statements has O'Bama made?
Reverend Wright is not an insignificant factor in the political rise and spiritual development of Barack O'Bama. Truth be told, I speculate that O'Bama's wife has as much to do with where the family attends church, but that is another topic.
If Barack O'Bama was truly oblivious to the ministeriel stance of Reverend Wright, he would have to be so clueless that he can't possibly be together enough to be president. If he actually feels the way Reverend Wright feels, he has views of his country that would make it impossible for him to govern such a diverse population with an even hand. I think something else is actually nearer the truth, and that is that Mr. O'Bama chose Trinity as his church because of the political clout and street credit he could garner as an upcoming Chicago politician. This to me means that he is a cold, calculating politician very much in the mold of the entire Chicago political machine. This means he has hand picked his church for his career and turned a blind eye to hateful, untrue statements because he benefited from the association. Either way, it makes O'Bama seem very insincere and not a NEW kind of politician at all.
Secondly, today Barack O'Bama stated that those who wouldn't vote for him because he is black are also those who disagree with his political stances. What?? Everyone who is a racist and wouldn't vote for him because of his skin color also disagree with his politics? Don't I get to choose to deny my support to Mr. O'Bama without it being about his skin color? That is a racist statement in itself. Perhaps I choose not to vote for O'Bama because I believe him to be too far left of center and i simply don't want my country to slip further towards Socialism and a nanny state reality where freedoms continue to be sacrificed for the marxist vision of utopia.
Barack O'Bama also believes that people who cling to religion and the second amendment are doing so because they are unemployed and bitter. If they had jobs, I guess they would tend to be Atheistic pacifists? These statements combined illustrate how OUT of touch Barack actually is with the average American. He is only posing as a uniter. No one so consistently coming from the far left can unite this country.
we all know rip van winkle fell asleep for 20yrs. sen obama must have done the same as ole rip. never hearing rev.wrights anti white anti america sermons.if obama makes it to the white house,i hope he will sleep atleast for another 4
RACIST!!!! What color did you just see
I bet it wasn't Asian or Mexican, Eastern, or Indian.
RACISTS are as archaic as RELIGIONists. Mix the two and you have a top rated TV show.
The presidendcy is about Vision and Integrity. Hillbilly has no Integrity and Mclame has no Vision. That leaves only one.
Greta, I can not see how anyone could think a poll from FOX News would be unbiased. Anyway, the first time I heard Reverend Wright I was appalled to say the least. However, when I got a chance to hear his whole sermons and not just sound bites, I did not have a problem with him at all. As a Deacon and a responsible community leader in my church, of which I have been a member for over ten years, I have heard my Pastor say things I do not agree with, but I am intelligent enough to take what I want and discard the rest. The irony of it all is we had to go find Reverend Wright to get his snippets, yet we get to listen to Rush Limbaugh spew his divisive opinions practically everyday on the radio. I think what Limbaugh is doing with his “Operation Chaos”, telling Republicans to vote for Senator Clinton because she will bloody up Senator Obama, is destructive to our entire democracy.
The sad thing about it all is we are distracted from really looking at the direction these candidates want to take (govern) our county. I am further upset that I have so many unemployed friends along with others who are losing there homes. Still others are going without the benefit of healthcare. In just these few months I have seen my grocery bill more than double. The Iraq War is affecting several of our young families in our community. We are experiencing an astronomical rise in gas prices. Just today I paid $3.89 per gallon for gas…now what’s wrong with that?
The comments made by Rev. Wright against America are despicable.. his comments are NOT about RACE.. they are ANTI-AMERICAN.. I wonder if .. ALL those people who are DEFENDING Rev. Wright.. especially Roland Martin..
- would they do the same if Rev. Wright was a MUSLIM CLERIC talking in a mosque??
- would there still be equality??
- would he be called a terrorist??
- would the MUSLIM cleric and all his followers be in prison based on the Patriot Act??
- should Rev Wright be in prison with no rights based on Patriot Act??
CHERYL HALL: You have NO idea what your talking about! Your assumptions are dumb dumb dumb. NOTICE YOUR RATHER RACIST COMMENTS??!!! THAN you have the audacity to speak of Fox. Use your brains Miss CHeryl DEAR!
WILL M: You are so off base your OUT! Where did the Catholics attending Church ever hear from their Priests "Guess what you guys, I'm raping the altar boys!!!". Another REALLY STUPID comparison. Wrights followers HEARD AND KNEW. You gotta do better than that Will! Another "NUT" trying to find an excuse for radical hate enveloped around Religion. MAKES SOME OF US SICK! BUT WILL, you'd have to be a REAL Christian to be offended!
SUSAN: If "YOU" were a real devout Christian you CERTAINLY would NOT defend a man you "CLAIMS" to be a Christian but thinks the killing of the unborn is ok. Some of you supporters who quote the BIble make me sick to my stomach! You have NO clue! Why don't you pick up a King James and find where Jesus says killing babys is ok with him. I pity you!
MIKE MAGAGNA: SO, you don't believe that we hang around with people who are like us, like views, etc????????????? YOU JUST GOTTA BE KIDDING MAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I think I'm gonna be sick here!!!!!!!! STUPIDITY running rampant!!!!!!!
JENNISE: If you attended CHurch you'd understand what some of us are offended about. Your obviously not a follower of Christ Word. Some of you are just too frustrating to listen to. Let me try and explain something to you Jennise, You'd Have To Attend CHURCH to understand!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DUH! The people that support Obama ARE NOT CHRISTIANS OR FOLLOWERS OF CHRIST! NOR would a real Christian attend a CHurch such as Wrights!
JAMES LEITKE: You are right on the money! ITS SHOCKING! Great post!
Barack Hussein Obama may be articulate when making rehearsed speeches, but he's pretty dumb to think all Americans are stupid enough to believe in him! Personally, he did fool me at the start of his campaign, but the more I heard him speak and the more I continue to learn of him, the less he fools me and the less I like him! I'm not your regular white person that is easily fooled, Obama; I have a brain and can think for myself.
Wendell, to add to your list of where Wright lied at: 1) his claims Romans were Italians to slur Italians with garlic remarks, when in actuality, Romans were Estrucans, Latins, and Sabines and Italians came from Germanic tribes that took over area where they lived now from Romans, such as Ostrogoths, Visigoths, Franks, and Lombards, 2) his claims Jefferson said God damned America, when in actuality, Jefferson said he trembled (worried) that God would judge America over slavery and did not want that to happened, 3) his claims founders planted slavery in America when in actuality slavery was planted in America long before they were born, and many founders attempted to end slavery, and failing at federal level, worked at state levels, especially in the North to have slavery abolished.
I heard the whole context of Wright's sermons and in actuality, the context was far worse than the little snippets. Wright got spiritual and emotional issues and is unfit to be pastor.
Also, don't forget Wright claimed America passed out drugs to blacks to have them jailed.
And his blaming America for every wars are quite laughable given Japan attacked us first. As well as his claim that America's leaders knew about pending attack on Pearl Harbor (even if we had been prepared based on that alleged knowledge and been able to beat back that attack war would have taken place anyways, but we would have started out with much better morale then we did). Japan also had every opportunity to surrender and we didn't want to lose many of our men and wiped out nearly entire population of Japan, so that was why we used A-bomb. Wright is very selective about his facts there.
And his support for antisemitic Hamas, that wanted to wipe Israel off face of the earth, while attacking Israel as apartheid, terrorist state? Slander, antisemitic, and hypocrisy there.
Lets play "what if"...(what if? we never had slavery...America grew to this great nation without the tragic slavery component)...where would our black Americans be now? In Africa, in a tribal disbute, suffering from aids, starving...did you watch IDOL GIVES BACK? Where is the majority of support going...AFRICA! Slavery, a tragic novel in America's history, resulted in blacks being Americans becoming the Oprahs, the C. Rices, the Collin Powells, etc. The beauty of being an American is we have choices and can succeed through our own efforts! Just a thought...what would I do if I were black? Go back to my roots in Africa or stay in America? Should Rev. Wright go back to Africa, his roots, and enjoy all it has to offer or stay in America and truly believe "GOD BLESS AMERICA" !
obama said his mother and grandma was a little raciest how did obama get made if his mother was raciest it takes two to have a baby or was his mother raped by his dad??
Pathetic.
Has anyone ever watched a full sermon by Rev. Wright?
Of course not.
You judge him on a two minute youtube clip?
Of course you do.
More unintelligent armchair judges, passing their verdicts on good men and women without ever attempting to understand them.
Do you know who was brought to the White House to help settle Pres. Bill Clinton and First Lady Hillary Clinton's marital troubles?
A wonderful pastor from Chicago, Rev. Wright.
Oops :(
Chris,
I have watched and read Wright's sermons in their entirety. The context of those sermons are WORST than the snippets shown by the media. Nice try there.
And trying to understand them? People who researched him have already done that. The church passes out antisemitic tracts from Hamas. The church preaches black liberation theology that does not submit to God unless He is against white people. That is the gist of the church's theology.
It is racist in general.
Responding to a blog that claims Wright is getting lynched by the media and his free speech violated:

I can not belive that rev wright thinks we are that stupid.Maybe his followers are but i sure am not.And for me to belive him or Obama goes to a saying.If you hang out long enough in a barbar shop you eventualy will get a hair cut.
Chris: You just have no clue! I THINK YOU should do the same investigating most of us have! AND might I add, no Preacher I've ever heard ever said G.. Damn AMerican, IN ANY CONTEXT. If you went to Church maybe you'd know more and quit stating things you obviously know nothing about.
POLL QUESTION**Obama is: 1. evil** 2. corrupt** 3. racist** 4. all three
Ha-you guys think that we will vote obama in as our next president .Think again cause if hillary loses out and we know why the OBAMA dems.fixed it so michigan and florida wont count they knew hillary would win those cause she wins all the dem. states the big states and obama wins all the red repub. states.guess what when he runs against mccain in november mccain will get those red states-and he will also get ohio-michigan -florida-penn-because they are hillary states and we will vote for mccain.you bet on it.I PROMISE YOU THAT.YOU CAN TAKE IT TO THE BANK.
It is my understanding that the 'sound bites' that were selected to paint Reverend Wright as an anti American demagogue were actually parts of a speech given by Ambassador Peck in the week following the 9/11 attacks, in reference to America's foreign policy tactics coming home to roost.
Bill Moyers Journal . Watch & Listen | PBS
American history is not clean or lilly white. A people who fail to acknowledge their past, irrespective of how ugly it is are a people bound to repeat it. What do our children know and understand about the role of America in world history? We have come to hate the truth.
Lets keep everything sterile and clean ignore the fact that we have lost over 4,000 men and women and tens of thousands have been injured in this ongoing 'war on terror', not to mention the tens of thousands of innocent Iraquis and Afghans who have also been killed.
The comments above tell me that this is a sad day for America. We are in a recession (sorry no an econominc downturn). The dollar is the weakest its ever been. Gas is averaging almost $4.00 PG. We owe trillions in debt to other countires, and are a consumer nation. We produce nothing. Our government is giving us 164billion dollars to go and spend to 'reboot the economy'. Where is the money coming from? Wake up people and see that you are being bamboozled, yet you are allowing yourselves to be distracted by the carefully crafted tactics of a media, whose purpose is to ensure you dont focus on what's really happening to the Land of the Free.
The rest of the world looks at us and laughs at our arrogance bred out of ignorance.
kemi: You claim we are being somehow misled by the media. Such sad comments. Obama and Wright have both stated that women have the right to kill their unborn babys. With the planned parenthood scandel, all of a sudden people who thought it was ok to kill including Sharpton are horrified and outraged. You worry about gasoline? So do the rest of us. But just maybe we believe the value of human life is just A BIT more important. Maybe we believe the very core of a person, their soul, their values, their integrity is important. You obviously don't care or you wish to stick your head in the sand and not believe or just maybe all you've heard are 20 words or so about Wright. WELL, some of us have done just a tad more investigating. THe sad truth is that there is more racism with blacks towards whites. You learn hate from your family, friends and it appears, the black church. Your theary is so out of wack to be preposterous; that to face our past or we will repeat it. When all children hear is hate they WILL hate. I've never heard any black american acknowledge the fact that their own race sold them into slaver OR thank you to the many boys and men who died to set them free. All I hear is lots and lots of hate. Well let me say, we all have been hurt! AND no black american today has ever been a slave. Teach hate in your home and your kids will grow up to hate and thats just whats happening and that fact they feel "entitled" to things that the average person has to work for. A lot of your comments are very sad and your very misinformed. BUT, thats only my opinion.
well its like this my dad was a coal miner he worked hard all his life. my mother was jewish and my father family was babtist .my grandfather was the paster of the old regular babtist church -but never in my life have i ever seen preachin like paster wright.and ive seen a lot of preachin that guy needs help he is a rich black preacher saying bad stuff about rich white people-then saying that clinton screwed the black people like he screwed monica lewensky-what is that all about.is that what god inspires him to preach its not the god i know and i would never stay in that church four 2 sermans little long 20 years .so i will not vote for obama because he goes to that raciest church .
From the few comments I have read, I see many have decided to rely on more video snips and the opinions of others (they enjoy leading you around like sheep), instead of watching the whole interview by Bill Moyers.
Take an hour to form a non biased opinion:

ReelMan---- I watched several whole sermons and came away with, Wright is even worse than I thought after listening to his
extremely long media cuts of his vile remarks. The extremely long media cuts were not snippets, they were tirades of 4
and five minutes EACH. The big lie is that they were just short sound bytes. BULL SHIT. They were NOT out of
context, they were VERY MUCH IN CONTEXT. Wright is a racist, lying, corrupt piece of shit, as is Obama.
Hillary isn't racist, but she is a lying, corrupt piece of shit.
ReelMan_____ If you believe a deceptive, underhanded, liar like Moyers, YOU ARE CRAZY, and very ignorant.
Greta, I admire you, and have watched your show since the day it first aired. I'm not a Fox--news fan, but watch your show. I'm not prejudced, as I have emailed CNN, NBC AND CBS. I am a white, senior Grandmother who lives in a small town in Illinois. I agree Rev. Wright should keep politics out of his pulpit, but I don't hold Barack Obama accountable for Rev. Wright's comments/actions. We could have one of the best President's this country has seen----in a long time, but it seems News Media is bent on ruining his career. Can't all News Media stop this insanity, so we can all focus on the issue's, the majority of American's want to hear. WHY----for the first time; has the NAACP conferance been televised? MSNBC did'nt televise it------only CNN and FOX. ALL news media are sounding more like rag magazines. Should we all start calling you FOX-GLOBE, CNN-ENQUIRER, MSNBC-STAR? This country has come so far with race issue's and now news media is helping to tear it all down, and now going backwards---again. Please FOX news-----come together with ALL news media, and stop this insanity! Please respond.
kathleen williamson --- The news media isn't ruining Obama .... Obama is ruining Obama. The news media is very easy
on Obama. We do not want to hear a bunch of phony, impossible excuses about the change he wants to make, we do
want to know why he is so unethical, and why he has surrounded himself with so many unethical con men and traitors.
kathleen williamson: Your kidding aren't you! Your comments, your just pulling our leg!?? You must be asleep at the wheel! Obvious not a Christian voter. IF you were, you'd know how Obama and Wright support abortion. But I guess his pretty words and all the other crap you state is more important. If you watched or investigated more you'd find out that Wright is the biggest racist I've ever heard, including Jackson & Sharpton! DUH!
Reelman: Its obvious your the one WHO hasn't done any investigating. Try reading and digging; you just might learn something. Obamaites: typical mindless following.
if i was 20 years in the kkk and said i did not hear a word they said. how would i say that i did not know they were raciest???
The good reverend Wright put on quite a show today at the press club. He danced, did the two step, and basically avoided questions by re-wording them and giving answers that weren't answers to the questions, only modifications of them. That might work with African-Americans but it ain't gonna fool no white person or any moderately intelligent non-black. He's nothing but a P.T. Barnum, a sleight-of-hand artist, a snake oil salesman.
Blacks suffer from what I call the "OJ Simpson guilty or innocent" syndrome. Basically, if you're black you have to believe certain things, even some quite bizarre things because they are, simply, not what whites believe. That mind-set, even under the weight of the best evidence will find OJ Simpson innocent every time. Blacks don't think as individuals, they think as a group much the way many whites thought before getting a clue about what was happening to Black Americans and how wrong our attitudes, as a group, towards them were.
ROBERT NORWOOD: I guess with this election I'm finding out the same things. Black Americans think as a group. ALSO, sad to say, I'm "becoming" prejudice in a way based on the Blacks hate for White's. I never realized how much they hated us, still (I never did anything to them), and what I believe they want is the entitlements that may come with Obama. I'm not saying all Blacks but a majority!
Wright is Wrong. He is a sick demented old f--k.
Wright is breaking his arm patting himself on the back. A Christian, A Reverand - not on your life. His little dancing and black (he made that statement himself) jigging around on stage looked so stupid I'm surprised his wife wasn't crawling under a table. If my husband acted that way, I'd have run for the nearest exit! The man is certainly inlove with himself. What a fat head! AND he's been to college? He was a Marine? I shudder!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
If a white person were to say these terrible things about the blacks then the white people would be punished in one way or another. WHY is it ok for some black americans to preach or make comments against whites (whether they be rich or poor) but it is not ok for the whites to make comments against the blacks?? This does not make sense. I know all blacks do not have the same views as Rev Wright and I think all blacks should KNOW that not all whites are racists. They are not African Americans! They are Black Americans just as whites are White Americans. My acestors are from Ireland yet I do not call myself Irish-American. I am American and I happen to be White! Therefore-White American.
Wright is wrong??? The following is EXACTLY what he was preaching about in one of his sermons:
>> US forces launched a third consecutive day of air strikes in Somalia today as a Somali government official said one of three al-Qaida suspects targeted by the raids was believed to have been killed......
......Yesterday's strike by two US helicopters near the southern town of Afmadow killed between five and 10 people, according to a US intelligence official cited by the Associated Press. Locals put the death toll at 31, saying two newlyweds were among civilians killed. <<
I am all for killing al-Qaida behind killing Americans, but AIR STRIKES that kill 31 civilians to get 1 man? Isn't our military more skilled to do a better job so we don't bread more al-Qaida members that desire to get revenge? Think of the anger we had after 911 killed innocent Americans. We are naive if we think others won't be angered with us. Most of all... I didn't see this in the news yesterday. We don’t seem to value other lives like American lives. Thousands of innocent non-military men, women, and children have been killed in Iraq and I bet the average American couldn't tell how many civilian casualties there have been. We were too tied up with the BS the media feeds us.
