Pfleger Surpassing Jeremiah Wright (reparations to come from white 401-K's
National Review Online ^ | 5/29/08

Posted on 06/05/2008 12:26:11 PM PDT by prolifefirst

UPDATE: Much like written words don't do justice to Jeremiah Wright's sermons, the video must be watched to be believed.

Pfleger is introduced as "a friend of Trinity", and then the YouTube skips ahead to one section:

I must now to address the one who says, 'don't hold me responsible for what my ancestors did.' But you have enjoyed the benefits of what your ancestors did! And unless you are ready to give up the benefits — Throw away your 401 fund! [sic] Throw away your trust fund! Throw away all the money that been put away in the company you walked into 'cause your daddy and your granddaddy and your great grandaddy —

(screaming at the top of his lungs)

Unless you are willing to give up the benefits, then you must be responsible for what was done in your generation! 'Cause you are the beneficiary of this insurance policy!

Words cannot describe the surreality of watching a middle-aged white man in a priest's collar appearing like he is trying to imitate Jeremiah Wright at his most outrageous.

[garbled] expose white entitlement. And supremacy, wherever it raises its head. I said before, I really don't want ot make this political, because you know I'm really very unpolitical.

When Hillary was crying, and people said that was put on, I really don't believe it was put on. I really believe that she just always thought, 'this is mine. I'm Bill's wife. I'm white, and this is mine. I just gotta get up and step into the plate.'

Then out of nowhere, 'I'm Barack Obama!'

Imitating Hillary's response, screaming at the top of his lungs again, he continues, 'Ah, damn! Where did you come from? I'm white! I'm entitled! There's a black man stealing my show!'

(mocks crying)

She wasn't the only one crying, there was a whole lot of white people crying!

I'm sorry. I don't want in any more trouble. The live-streaming just went out again."

The argument that 401(k) accounts are inherent representations of white supremacy will be news to many, many Americans.

So what is the response from Team Obama going to be? That he didn't know Pfleger was capable of this kind of rhetoric, either?

I believe Rangel first proposed this - a “one time, 50% tax on 401k holdings”.

I don't think there's a surer lie in the english language than "one time tax".

Hey, Phlem-ger...got to hell.

How DARE YOU talk about reparations. When 370,000 white men died, not one of which you are worthy to tie the boot laces of, to free the slaves...and another 275,000 were wounded.

Are any of us whose relatives died on those fields asking the blacks of today for reparations? Hmmm? No. Nor will we.

But I will not allow you race-bating, liberal, hate-America, scum, who are the real ones keeping the blacks of today down, enslaving them economically and mentally to your foolish notions and legislation, to walk on the graves of those who gave all to truly free them by countenancing such a proposal.

Your ilk should always remember these following phrases:

Molon Labe, Semper Paratus, de oppresso liber, and Sic Semper Tyrannis.

As Benjamin Martin told the decrepid English Colonel in the movie, "The Patriot",...soon, soon.

With demos with commanding numbers in the House and Senate, and the Obamination of Desolation in the White House, look for lots of these sorts of overreaching initiatives over the next two years, as well as a very pissed off electorate in 2010.

Your ancestors arriving after the Civil War is not a sufficient excuse.

If it were, the poor white wouldn’t be a victim of affirmative action.

Someone could make a very good bit of cash with a wealth protection service following November 2008.

I’d be willing to pay quite a bit to protect what I’ve got stored up with my sacrifices and good decisions.

Nobody has vetted Obama about slave reparations. Of course he would not qualify.

My great great uncle died in Missisippi and my great great grandfather served as well for the NJ regiment - and they were volunteers! I should be exempt!

Ach-hem - (trying to clear throat to keep from shrieking like the Friar) - if any @zzhole attempts to take my savings for this insane cause they will have to get it after prying my cold fingers from my empty 9mm!

That fact can be taken to "their" bank!!!!!!!!!!!

Screw that son-of-a-_____ Rangel! That’s money that I earned. No one gave it to me. I haven’t been given anything - unlike so many of my black contemporaries, who’ve made a living out of hand-outs.

Forget investment, think fortification. Buy land, shelter, arms, seed, etc.

Liberal ideology is centered around making those that make good, responsible decisions pay for the consequences of those that make irresponsible decisions.

That’s the first undeniable fact about “liberalism”.

The second is that liberals don’t promote ANY freedom except for those issues related to irresponsible sexual behavior choices.

I think THEY owe us for ph*cking up every one of our major cities.

I have all of these and more, and I still don't think it's going to help.

For many years the Dems have ogled those trillions of dollars in tax exempt funds. They see our 401k’s as nothing more than a huge pot to be tapped.

Yep. That's why the smart $$ has already been placed offshore.

Throw away your 401 fund! [sic]

So everyone who has worked hard and put money in a 401K has benefitted from their ancestors? I guess that means all the black folks working where I do and putting money in their 401Ks have benefited as well.

This so-called priest is an idiot.

With baby boomers now beginning to retire, “Retirement Inequality” will become the new mantra. It’s not fair that some people have 401k’s to fund their retirements.

HEY! Don't give the RATS any new ideas to "redistribution of wealth". I just hope the "liberal white guilt" voters; The Silky Pony, john Skerry, The Swimmer, Dingy harry reid, San Fran nan, etc., have every one of their retirements "adjusted" for their votes.
