folks, check it out, this may be invaluable in showing Obambi a liar when he says he never heard or approved of any of “Reverend” Wright’s radical loony remarks. Less than 12 months ago Obama was introducing Wright in the most glowing terms..... Here is Obambi last June (2007) showing that he still adored Rev. Wright and fully agreed with him as of that date, giving a warm and rousing acknowledgement to his spiritual mentor before a large audience of black ministers..... is it really plausible that Obama considered Wright his main spiritual guide and mentor yet knew nothing of his actual views???..... here is Obambi repeating the foolish canard of “more black men in prison than in college” which Rev. Wright loves to talk about.
Does anyone know how to download and save this video for posterity in case it gets quickly “disappeared”?? I can watch it streaming but I don’t know how to save it as an MP3 or whatever. It won’t last long once Obambi’s pals realize it could deep-six his whole campaign. (video is on upper right, you have to click on the little image that shows Obama above the video screen).
Obama Warns Of ‘Quiet Riot’ Among Blacks
http://cbs2chicago.com/topstories/Obama.Blacks.Quiet.2.337535.html
Obama, who is bidding to become the first black president, took the stage after a succession of ministers repeatedly brought the crowd to its feet, singing, praying and swaying to music.
Repeatedly, with evangelical zeal, he raised issues that roused the crowd: increasing the minimum wage and teacher pay, funding for public schools and college financial aid for the poor, ending predatory lending and expediting the reconstruction of New Orleans and the Mississippi coast.
He introduced his own pastor, the Rev. Jeremiah Wright of Chicago’s Trinity United as “Unashamedly Black and Unapologetically Christian.” He credited Wright with introducing him to Christ, and peppered his speech with Scriptural references, at one point invoking the opening lines of the Lord’s Prayer.
Obama noted that during the riots, a bullet pierced the abdomen of a pregnant woman and lodged in the elbow of her fetus. The baby was delivered by caesarian section, the bullet was removed and the child, Jessica Glennis Evers-Jones, has only a small scar on her arm to show for it.
Using the incident as a metaphor, Obama said society’s problems are worsening because “in too many places across the country, we have not even bothered to take the bullet out.”
“When we have more black men in prison than in college, then it’s time to take the bullet out,” he said.

From 1997 through 2002, the Obamas reported devoting less than 1 percent of their household income to charity. In 2005, as the book-deal money poured in, they reported $1.65 million in combined income, with $77,315, or 4.7 percent, going to charity.
Only a few of the tax returns released by Obama detail the recipients of his charity. In 1998, when the Obamas reported a combined household income of $191,146 and $1,100 in cash donations to charity, the biggest gift went to Trinity. It totaled $400, about 0.2 percent of their combined income.
In 2005 they gave the church $5,000 and in 2006 it received $22,500.
Obama has certainly been present when Rev. Wright ranted about “United States of White America” and “white arrogance” — the idea that he knows nothing of Wright’s racist views is preposterous:

BARACK OBAMA
Trinity United Church of Christ vs. Wal-Mart
Libs were already spinning it this morning on the talk shows as I knew they would! True to their colors.
America, meet Obama’s primary spiritual mentor and guide (how long can Obama maintain the pretence that he has not been present for any of these depraved rants):

Bush’s Bulls—t
Wright’s strong sentiments were echoed in the Sunday morning service attended by NewsMax.
Wright laced into America’s establishment, blaming the “white arrogance” of America’s Caucasian majority for the woes of the world, especially the oppression suffered by blacks. To underscore the point he refers to the country as the “United States of White America.” Many in the congregation, including Obama, nodded in apparent agreement as these statements were made.
The sermon also addressed the Iraq war, a frequent area of Wright’s fulminations.
“Young African-American men,” Wright thundered, were “dying for nothing.” The “illegal war,” he shouted, was “based on Bush’s lies” and is being “fought for oil money.”
In a sermon filled with profanity, Wright also blamed the war on “Bush administration bulls—t.”
Those are the types of statements that have led to MSNBC’s Tucker Carlson describing Wright as “a full-blown hater.”
Wright first came to national attention in 1984, when he visited Castro’s Cuba and Col. Muammar Gaddafi’s Libya.

Actions speak louder than words & this one will likely boost Obama’s credibility as the Dem candidate with better JUDGMENT to respond to that 3 a.m. phone call.
Hopeful for change in political campaigns, he wants to run a CLEAN campaign...an aide steps across the line, ever so slightly...she is promptly dismissed, sending a strong signal to all other aides that the pre-announced PRINCIPLE, sound & hopeful for American politics, is still in effect & will be enforced.
That’s leadership...unwavering...the likes of which have not been seen in the Democrat Party since JFK...and the likes of which will NEVER be found in Hillary Clinton, Queen of Dirty Tricks, even though a microscope be employed! Advantage Obama...

Sir, why are you chastising freepers for highlighting truths about Obama? And using lynched (as you do now and in prior posts) is your attempt to degrade the highlighted truth.
Twenty years of mentorship/friendship/tutoring cannot be dismissed by half measures of denouncing the words and feigned ignorance of their use while maintaining said friendship/mentorship and church membership.
You may or may not support him, but you’re doing what you accuse others of doing for Hillary.
This man is dangerous and needs to be stopped and I don’t care when as long as he doesn’t get elected to the presidency. Hillary will be addressed as well. All in the proper time.
I know a lot of people, including a recently separated Marine Officer who is also a PhD candidate in Political Science, who think just the opposite. I tend to agree. Hillary's negatives have always been much higher, and can be exploited. B. Hussein, can exploit "white guilt", and political correctness. He has the MSM on his side, and doesn't a have big negatives.
But even against Her Thighness, it will be a close run thing.
I'm not chastising any FReepers or using language to degrade anyone else's perspective of the 'truth'...merely expressing my own personal views of the moment, and grateful that Free Republic offers this forum opportunity to do so.
One objective of FR (on the Home Page) is to "...root out political fraud and corruption..." and I know of no greater purveyors of political fraud and corruption than Bill & Hillary Clinton.
I'm an old, white Irishman who knew nothing of the black culture in America until, long ago, I saw the movie "Malcolm X" and was moved to learn more by some of his outrageous rhetoric which, oddly, seemed to carry some elements of 'truth'...
I'll say nothing against [Martin Luther King Jr.]. At one time the whites in the United States called him a racialist, an extremist, and a Communist. Then the Black Muslims came along and the whites thanked the Lord for Martin Luther King.
If violence is wrong in America, violence is wrong abroad. If it is wrong to be violent defending black women and black children and black babies and black men, then it is wrong for America to draft us, and make us violent abroad in defense of her. And if it is right for America to draft us, and teach us how to be violent in defense of her, then it is right for you and me to do whatever is necessary to defend our own people right here in this country.
I've never seen a sincere white man, not when it comes to helping black people. Usually things like this are done by white people to benefit themselves. The white man's primary interest is not to elevate the thinking of black people, or to waken black people, or white people either. The white man is interested in the black man only to the extent that the black man is of use to him. The white man's interest is to make money, to exploit.
I'm not going to sit at your table and watch you eat, with nothing on my plate, and call myself a diner. Sitting at the table doesn't make you a diner, unless you eat some of what's on that plate. Being here in America doesn't make you an American.... No I'm not an American, I'm one of the 22 million black people who are the victims of Americanism. One of the 22 million black people who are the victims of democracy, nothing but disguised hypocrisy.... I'm speaking as a victim of this American system. And I see America through the eyes of a victim. I don't see any American dream; I see an American nightmare.
We're not Americans, we're Africans who happen to be in America. We were kidnapped and brought here against our will from Africa. We didn't land on Plymouth Rock - that rock landed on us.
What goes on in Reverend Wright's church is going on all across America & has been throughout my entire life. I'm weary of it and NOT afraid of the O Boogie Man, who just might be the right man at the right time to begin healing our country's deep, racial wounds. The Clintons will never do any more than exploit the racial divide for money & power that devolves to themselves...and THEY ARE trying to 'lynch' Obama to further their own, egotistical ambitions.
While John McCain will certainly get my vote in November...we are very close on the political spectrum, much to the chagrin of many FReepers I suspect...it probably won't make a difference because I'm in California, which is sure to have it's Electoral votes cast for the Dem candidate...who I hope & pray will be Obama (the O Boogie Man, yes, but don't be so scared!)...
I’m a conservative female who happens to be black and I’ve seen Obama/Wright/Jackson types as I grew up in Chicago. A lot of it went on in my neighborhood and my parents moved to keep it from affecting me and my siblings. They don’t just foment racial divides, they turn blacks against each other. There are weak minds and lost souls with misplaced anger that are susceptible to the hate. And these nationalists/marxists are addicted to power and control.
I take those real-life experiences to heart as I see people poo-pooing the black nationalist rantings and continued attempts to rise to power.
I see where you’re coming from in your disdain of the Clintons. I hope you come to see my position.
Thank you for sharing it...I'd like to know a bit more...
I don't believe Obama could win against McCain in November, but just as a hypothetical, IF he did get to the White House...
and considering the enormous precedent he would be setting as President of our entire country, with ALL the checks & balances that he would be subjected to (the Supreme Court could outlaw his Executive Orders...the Congress could impeach & convict him...Generals could refuse to obey his orders on grounds of un-Constitutionality...the whole future possibilities for any black person to be President would depend upon his giving a credible, worthy performance as Commander-In-Chief & President of ALL the People)...
What's your assessment of the risk that he would, beginning January 20, 2009, attempt to overthrow our Constitution & establish a tyrannical, black nationalist, Muslim-Marxist regime?
Wrong, Wrong, Wrong.
