Much to my regret and distaste, I'm pretty close to agreeing with them on that.
For example, In 1983, on 20th anniversary of death of JKF, I interviewed a bunch of Texas high school kids from a rather decent school on what they thought about the late president.
65% had no idea who he was.
My videogrpaher was a Black man. He whispered to me, “Ask the Black kids about Martin Luther King.” (This was 15 years after Dr. King's death.)
65% of the Black kids had no idea who MLK was.
We were both very quiet in the ride back to the bureau. I was sad. He was angry.
Ruf’s only comment was, “He gave his life so they could go to that school.... and they have no idea who he was. Their parents deserve a whuppin... and I think I'm going to get very drunk tonight!”
I didn't blame him.
And his liberal white mother was the first to begin teaching the idea.
Hint: Whenever a person has to say: This organization is (or I am) not a crackpot (or crook). You can be pretty certain the organization or individual IS whatever it is alleged not to be.
Church? No, its a hate cult.
“...This is a bunch of slick con men getting tithes out of people by telling them that they are not responsible for all the illegitimacy, the drug use, the hate. the crime, the illiteracy in their neighborhoods.... it is all Whitey’s fault.”
People STUPID and RACIST enough to attend this “church” deserve to be ‘had.’
We gotcha Obama; the church isn’t crackpot, America is...
al,baby, your spelling is no better than your selection of mistresses.
If the church is not “crack pot,” the parson and his gnomes need be in prison on charges of sedition. My white skin crawls at the though of that gang preaching for my destruction.
Oh for cryin' out loud. Bill Clinton also used Jesse Jackson as a spiritual advisor during the Lewinski scandal. The same Jesse Jackson who fathered an illegitimate child with his own aide, Karen Sanford! And if Obama doesn't think it's "crackpot" that his church's Easter sermon today was about Pastor Jeremiah Wright's deserved exposure, calling it a "lynching" comparable to the crucifixion of Christ, then Obama is not only a Marxist, he might be clinically insane.
Suuure, we've all taken Otis' and Wright's comments completely out of context. Pfft.
Obama-lama-ding-dong is happy enough for YouTube when it suits his own purposes. But let it illustrate just WHO the con men are that he associates with...by using their very own words....and it's a "danger".
Got a little democrat duplicity laid on there, huh Hussein?
>>>>Bill Clinton also used Jesse Jackson as a spiritual advisor during the Lewinski scandal. The same Jesse Jackson who fathered an illegitimate child with his own aide, Karen Sanford!
And Jesse took Karen to the “spiritual healing” sessions with Clinton, and Karen sat in on them, while she was eights months pregnant with Jesse’s baby!
Problem it is not just SOME! Thousands are still showing up at his rallies! 12,000 or more at the Richardson endorsement. And it will only continue as this all dies down and his so called speech on race gets praised more and more by the MSM!
Obama does belong to a crackpot church, indeed. Jeremiah Wright sounds more like something comeing from a bar room. I only hope that people do not think that all black people are like that. Some of the finest Christians that I have ever known and loved are black people, for whom I have the greatest respect. I do not think that Jeremiah Wright could have the respect of anyone except another evil person.
Exactly! And Obama thinks the fact that there's a picture of Clinton shaking hands with Wright at the White House proves that neither Obama's pastor nor his church are crackpots? What a clueless maroon.
Or Tony Evans.
A LOT (most is actually more accurate) of people are losing focus on the critical point here. A person is running for President of the United States of America, and this person has exhibited anti-American gestures in the past, so has his wife. Now he is caught out in the whole Rev Wright thing that supports the possibility that these minor gestures have substance behind them. So, someone who is anti-American, anti-establishment is running for President. Sure, the whole race thing is also relevant, very relevant. But to me it seems it has all been used to remove focus from the obvious, this guy hates America and wants to lead it. He wants the most powerful political position on the planet, but he hates the very thing he wants to control, or at the very least, he is sympathetic to those who do.
Why have people lost focus? Forget the whole race thing for a minute. The mere fact that he is sympathetic to anti-American hate and those who preach it is a show stopper, the end game for him and those who support him.
“These Liberal traitors think the majority of Americans are clueless morons. “
They are, unfortunately. They voted in democratic control last year. What does that say about us ?
