This is not unusual. I work with a black guy who considers anyone he works for as a slave owner. I asked him why he doesn't work for himself -

...He says "they" won't let him.

The place where we work will be closing at the end of June. The day after the announcement I asked how it felt now that we were all emancipated? He just laughed.

The only reason blacks are allowed to stay in the blue fiefdom of Chicago is that they are a DemocRAT voting bloc. If they didn't vote 85% or higher DemocRATic, they would have been run out of the city long ago.

Is not Meeks the one who has used some extremely harsh language on WHITEY.

Words having to do with GARBAGE, TRASH, GUTTER,SLAVE OWNER and others come to mind.

Oh Well!!! I might have him mixed up with the one or two other black folks who claim to be non racial but use the power of the pulpit and their religious responsibility of peace and love of Jesus Christ to excoriate any non black race.

One or two....ha...ha..ha...sarc on big time.

Racism is at the heart of the Hussein campaign. Ignorance in the face of so many instances of racist behavior at his "former" church is inexcusable for having spent 20 years at the church.

His recent resignation from the church is nothing more than a political response to a situation now that has shown how racist the church and all of its members are. In todays America any person associated with that church would be thought of as a pure racist. The question should be, Why isn't BHO being called what he appears to be, a racist?

Didn’t you get the Memo that explained that only Whites can be Racist?

No, I didn’t get that one either. I was too busy reading the memo entitled “This is the rhetorical tradition in the black church so get over it, Whitey.”

I've heard some rumors that the mayor of Detroit (Kwame Kilpatrick) might be looking for a new job.

Obama is such a gift.

He exposes the bigotry of his followers in such dramatic detail. He is the biggest argument going for the elimination of affirmative action and other forms of race specific entitlements.

Meeks also refers to various unnamed white and black leaders as “N——s” though he won’t specify to whom he is referring. IIRC this scumbag was one of the 3 principal spiritual advisers, along with Wright and Pfleger, before Obama’s campaign started the Orwellian process of losing pages on that website. Maybe Obama doesn’t have any spiritual advisors left!
