A friend of mine sent me his comment on the "National Publican Radio" reference by Obama's new Reverend in today's sermon. See http://newsbusters.org/blogs/mark-finkelstein/2008/03/23/wright-replacement-calls-npr-national-publican-radio. I haven't verified it, but my friend is generally very accurate. You might want to check it out:
As a Roman history buff, I don't know how many other people will notice this, but when Rev. Moss calls NPR "National Publican Radio", there's an anti-Semitic crack buried in the reference. Publicans were Jewish tax collectors for the Romans.
This was the primary definition until a recent flurry of political correctness forced Webster's to delete the word "Jewish" from the entry. Since the word is uttered in the context of an Easter sermon, and calls CNN the "Roman News Network", it seems reasonable to assume that Moss intended "publican" in its traditional historical setting.
The new boss is the same as the old boss.
We won’t be fooled again.
You took the words right out of my mouth. They exchanged one bigot for another. That’s “change” ya know.
They don't like Jews, don't like Mexicans, don't like whites, chronically pissed off about the world around them.
It was a bit political, but mainly just a ranting and raving feel-good sermon. No substance.
Well, the perpetually p.o.ed folks get the press. The average “man on the street” African American I doubt is like this raving nutbag.
Can you quantify that statement AFD? ; )
Well, alot of black churches preach the victim sermons....and guess who is the devil? Whitey.
The “church” council, ever mindfull of the need to keep the money flowing, would not make a 180 degree change in pastor philosophy.
The new “pastor” spoke of the old pastor being “lynched”.In his Easter Sunday message.
It’s still an angry black “church” that hates whites and America.
I wondered what that word meant, thanks
Well duh!
Unfortunately, it seems that way. Wright and his ilk profit from it all. Look at Wright, he wears silk robes and and is definitely not hurting for cash. He used hate to fleece the flock. The Judge of mankind has a lot to say about such men and “Reverend” Wright won’t like what he has to say.
“Who,” me? :)
Interesting. And I would expect a theology type to well-understand that meaning of the word.
