My, what a dandy.

It seems America owes an apology to the Rev. Jeremiah Wright, the one-time spiritual leader of Trinity United Church of Christ in Chicago and Barack Obama's former pastor. He says those now-infamous, anti-American statements he made from the pulpit were taken out of context.
"The world doesn't know about my 41 years of ministry, or my writing of books, because it was all taken down to a 10-second sound bite that the media chose to show about a sermon that was delivered seven years ago," the Rev. Wright said Thursday night at a gathering in Milford. "The media didn't care about the whole sermon and what it was about. They just used those 10 seconds and used it as a weapon of mass destruction against (Sen. Obama's) campaign."
So when he said, "God Damn America," or "U.S. of KKKA," he didn't mean it in a bad way; he was just taken out of context.
On Thursday night, was he again taken out of context? One newspaper quoted him as saying "it is not just the Bible that has racism written into it, but the Quran, the Vedas and other religious texts," and "(m)y biggest fear is that we will take (Sen. Obama's election) and think a whole lot has changed."
One of our biggest fears is hate-filled, stuck-in-the-'50s race hustlers will continue to pick at the scabs of America's racist past to ensure the wounds never heal.
Ping to a Republican-American Editorial.
If you want on or off this list, let me know.
I would not trust that man to watch my cats, let alone be the shepherd of souls.
The Rev. and his supporters are the ones who should be apologizing.
the only race baiters I saw in this election was the black community who came out in droves to vote for a man who was not all white.
The black community have proved themselves for the most part ignorant and racist and yet the media ignores all of this while they pat themselves on their backs
disgusting
Irony is wasted on bitter infidels.
“Reverend”, we don’t have to go by 10 seconds of your racist, hate-filled drivel. You used to sell DVD boxed-sets of it, remember?
And your website was full of racist, hate-filled drivel right up until it started hurting Obama?
You are a race-baiting Marxist, and you’re none too bright neither.
My, what a dandy.
People don’t know how Mussolini made the trains run on time in Italy for 20 years...
So Wright is now a ... victim?
Amazing.
Gee, we wouldn't want people to think that just because the USA elected a black President that the USA is not racist, would we ?
That would put quite a dent into the race victim industry and might even send it into recession.
We can't have that now, can we ?
.
We will apologize when the Obama campaign apologizes to Sarah Palin. She got a heck of a lot worse treatment from those people who professed to be Christian believers.
You're right, can you explain exactly how he did it?
” race hustlers will continue to pick at the scabs of America’s racist past to ensure the wounds never heal.”
Amen.
A whole industry has been made of this by the likes of Jackson, Sharpton, Farrakan, Wright and others. They have gained financially and have kept their flock down on the “Victim Plantation”.....thereby insuring the collective votes of these victims.
By violent abuse of workers.
Point being that the good things one accomplishes are not credited if they are accomplished by evil means or accompanied by other evil acts of greater significance, like perpetuating the polarised, self-perpetuating suffering of “race-consciousness.”
Poor little m...I spout racist crap for decades but I really didn’t mean any of it. Your all just picking on me.
We know all about your ‘liberation theology’, Sir.
And you will be held accountable for what happens!
He was smart enough to get his moronic followers to build
him a retirement mansion.
See there?
Things really are relative.
