Jeremiah Wright was White House guest
The recent coverage of Rev. Jeremiah Wright has often cast him as a marginal, almost fringe figure, but Trinity Church is a major Chicago institution, and Wright has long been a prominent pastor on the American scene.
And an anonymous blog set up to defend his church offers some compelling photographic evidence of this: A photograph of Wright and President Clinton, which it says was taken on September 11, 1998 -- the date of a White House gathering for religious leaders.
Hillary Clinton, according to her recently-released schedule for the day, was present at the gathering.
That's where Clinton reportedly told the assembled clerics, at the depth of the Monica Lewinsky scandal, that he had "repented."
As CNN reported at the time:
"I have been on quite a journey these last few weeks to get to the end of this, to the rock-bottom truth of where I am," Clinton said in his most emotional and dramatic statement since the affair with Lewinsky became public. "I don't think there is a fancy way to say that I have sinned."
Agreeing with his critics that he was not "contrite" enough during his initial Aug. 17 statement, Clinton said, "It is important to me that everybody who has been hurt know that the sorrow I feel is genuine. First and most important, my family, my friends, my staff, my cabinet, Monica Lewinsky and her family and the American people. I have asked all for their forgiveness."

Obama joined the church to get those political connections. It had nothing to do with Jesus.
Shoot...without Hillary pushing the Wright story, it will get buried and forgotten.
So Hillary and Bill knew this character, and probably had the goods on him months ago and broke the story at a time when it could hurt Obama the most. Nothing new here, let’s all just move along...
This is just fun to watch.
Next we’ll find out the pastor was boinking Monica, LOL
The Democrat Party: The Party of Incest.
It was also the date of the release of the Starr Report.
Oooooooooooooooooooooo
Bill had his good friend, Jerry Wright, over for a beer...
I would have been shocked if the “first black President” had never met a “revered” black leader like Barry’s Uncle Jeremiah.
America’s roosting chickens flocking together.
You gotta love this! No wonder the Clinton’s are remaining mum on this issue!
I don’t like popcorn, but I am really going to have to find a good snack for this sporting event.
Sept. 11th? Hmmmmm...
“The Democrat Party: The Party of Incest.”
The party that “plays” together “stays” together?
LOL!
This event, like many in Clinton crowd, seems like a bad plot for a daily soap opera. It is almost too much to believe, but I guess I will have to.
I'm really enjoying this!!
I wonder what Rev. Jeremiah Wright had to say when the Clinton Lewinsky scandal broke. Was he a Clinton supporter?
Looks like a pretty big crowd there. Not sure this means much.
When Wright said that 9/11 was Americas fault, did he mean 2001 or 1998?
Caption Reverend Wright to Bill Clinton:
“Don’t worry, Mr. President, we won’t let those honky trailer-trash b##ches take you down! I’ll be your spiritual mentor!”
Look in the background - Al is hanging with the “religion of peace” folks.
Clinton met Wright on a grip-and-greet. Obama attended church where Wright was giving sermons for 20 years, and routinely sought advice from him on major decisions. It would be accurate to say that Wright is Obama’s mentor.
Seriously! The party is imploding - Spitzer prostitutes, his replacement cheater/job getter, highly charged race issues, a radical pastor, clinton lies about Bosnia, Ireland peace negotiations, Obama/Rezko.
I mean really. If this was the GOP the press would be saying the party was dead.
Doritos can be a satisfying experience

The Democrats have lost their way......
WHOPPERS!
Malt balls ROCK!!!
Maybe Mr. Wright was speaking from personal experience, when he suggested that President B.J. Clinton was doing to Black folks what he did to Monica...
“Yep - there’s Bill Clinton - Ridin’ Dirty!”
ROTFL!
This is almost too fun to be legal.
Ooh, good catch. I was trying to figure out if that’s Lauren Bacall sitting at the table.
I have regular coconut oil, yours looks flavored...is it?
bring the cheezy poofs!
;-)
Caption Reverend Wright to Bill Clinton:
“Don’t worry, Mr. President, we won’t let those honky trailer-trash b##ches take you down! I’ll be your spiritual mentor! You be ridin’ dirty again in no time!”
Here’s hoping he didn’t wash that suit.
I'm enjoying a nice dish of Breyer's Caramel Praline Crunch icecream at the moment...yum, yum.
hat tip to you in my #39
Ha! Hillary has had every frying pan she has thrown boomarang back and smack her square in the forehead.
Lib Racist Rev Wright preaches hatred of white people and then meets with Clinton. He, like Clinton, is a just another two faced power hungry dirty politician.
As I stated previously, in comment #8, the Starr Report was released to the public on September 11, 1998.

Ya think they’re actually shaking hands, or did they have an awkward collision while reaching for each others’ pockets?
Grasping at straws.
LOL! I figure the boneheaded pubbies (for nominating McQueeg) don't really deserve this popcorn joy....but what the heck..bwahahahahahahahaha!
slept in the Lincoln bedroom?
