CNN's Soledad: Rev. Wright Speech a 'Home-Run'
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 04/28/2008 5:14:38 AM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

Were they commenting on the same speech? Rev. Jeremiah Wright goes before the Detroit NAACP, claims that black and white children learn with different parts of their brain, and offers a simpering, unflattering imitation of the way white pastors speak. CNN's Soledad O'Brien gushes that the speech was a "home run" and "really funny." But over at Morning Joe, Wright's words prompted a panel member to call the reverend a "mediocrity" and a "buffoon."

What if a white pastor gave this speech ping to Today show list.

How much is Hillary paying the “reverend” in “walking around money” I wonder?

He can try and polish it all he wants...but a turd is still a turd.

he can try and sugar coat it all he wants. But a cow paddy is still a cow paddy.

THE AUDACITY OF TRUTH - BLACK LIBERATION THEOLOGY AND OBAMA'S CHURCH


"Not God Bless America, no, no, no, God Damn America!" "911 is America's chickens coming home to roost"


"AIDS was created by the US for black geneocide," "If God is not for us & against whites, then he is a murderer, and we'd best kill him."

Oh goody. A chance to use my favorite new word!

Reverend Wright beclowned himself last night.

Nice Rolex, Rev. Wright.

That's a Rolex President Day/Date with diamond bezel. It'll set you back $14K, used.

LOL, kind of like Obama’s speech on race was touted as the greatest of all time. How stupid liberals must think we are. There was nothing rememberable about Obama’s speech except that he admitted he was a liar and would do anything to cover his butt.

The madman is also an idiot.

“Baraq HUSSEIN Obama!
Baraq HUSSEIN Obama!
Baraq HUSSEIN Obama!”
-Rev. Jeremiah Wright
Will be in sound bite ads and on billboards throughout the campaign.

He also made fun of LBJ and JFK’s manner of speech.

He also gave a litany of how this group thinks that group is deficient because they are different. But when he came to Whites think Blacks are deficient, HE STUDIOUSLY AVOIDED SAYING Blacks think whites are deficient. What a charlatan.

Catch Little People, Big World on Saturdays 8/7c

http://tlc.discovery.com/fansites/lpbw/lpbw.html

http://tlc.discovery.com/fansites/lpbw/about.html?clik=netmain_feat1

In Little People, Big World, viewers look into the lives of the Roloffs as they face the pressure of being little in an average-sized world and the financial burdens of operating Roloff Farms.

The Roloffs’ accomplishments belie a hard truth: for little people, every day is a challenge. Driving a car, seeing over the counter at a bank or even making a simple trip to the grocery store can quickly become a test in a world that wasn’t made for them.

.
Reverend Wright should watch the new season of Little People Big World and stop belly-aching.

WILLIE GEIST: Tucker, with all due respect to the Reverend, what the hell is he talking about?

TUCKER CARLSON: What a mediocrity! I mean, that's the embarrassing thing here. It's not just that he's anti-white and anti-American, all the things that have gotten so much publicity. It's this guy has been held up by Barack Obama as some deep theologian, as his spiritual mentor! And he's kind of buffoon.


I like Tucker's spin that Wright, Barrack's mentor, is nuts.

I wouldn't know Soledad O'Brien if I ran over her.

I don't want to know Ms. O"Brien. Even beyond the idiocy of being a liberal, she sets the bar high for surpassing her stupidity.

Duh, after all the Rev. Wright's real histrionics have been out, I bet Obama's and, the DNC people vetted the speech three-fold beyond what the pre-speech scrutiny the State of the Union Speech gets.

I guess Soledad agrees with Rev. Wright, we should go back to a "segregated" education system. Instead of being a "white" school, and a "colored" school, it will be "left brain"schools, and "right brain" schools.

Rev. Wright is a dangerous man.

A home run for HRC’s campaign.

Time to pushing those primary votes to Obama?
