Rev. Wright : U.S. 'land of greed and home of slave'
WorldNetDaily ^ | November 01, 2009 | Jerome R. Corsi

Posted on 11/02/2009 6:10:17 PM PST by RobinMasters

A new video has surfaced of Rev. Jeremiah Wright's speech at the 60th anniversary celebration of the independent socialist magazine, the Monthly Review, in which his antagonsim for the United States is on display.

In the New York City speech Sept. 17, 2009, Wright, President Barack Obama's pastor for about 20 years, once again reveals his disdain and lack of respect for the United States of America as he identified his belief in black-liberation theology with the Marxist ideology that is central to the Monthly Review.

Calling the United States, "the land of the greed and the home of the slave," Wright's antipathy to the United States was clear from how he described his personal history.

"My background consists of childhood experiences in racist America; teenage years in a segregated country that has never apologized for slavery; college years which were molded in the cauldron of the sit-ins in Richmond, Va., the capital of the Confederacy; six years in the military which showed me the inside and the underside of the beast Martin Luther King called 'the Number One purveyor of violence on the planet,'" Wright said as began to explain his "social location" to the audience.

Please stop by the FReepathon thread and give it a bump. If you haven’t donated yet, please give it some thought.

Thank you!

Let us not forget that the first legal slave owner in this country was a black man.

http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/shows/secret/famous/johnson.html

(from the article)”What makes Anthony Johnson a central figure in the debate is an utterly bizarre and “politically incorrect” twist of fate. From evidence found in the earliest legal documents extant, it is Anthony Johnson who we now must recognize as the nation’s first slaveholder. After all, the court battle he eventually won in 1655 to keep John Casor (Ceasar?) as his servant for life, identifies this unfortunate soul as the first slave in the recorded history of our country.”

Are these people greedy to want it all and for us to give it to them, no matter what the hardship to us (higher taxes, lost jobs, bankrupt US economy)? Are they greedy to expect cash in hand from this administration illustrated time after time (voter perception lingers)?

Turnabout being fair play to the Marxists on payroll in this administration, is reversal of who is the slave the precise goal?

Saw the video tonight. Whoever was the first to say that obama has ruined race relations—Amen. The entire so called administration are extremists to the max..they couldn’t be more extreme.

Calling the United States, “the land of the greed and the home of the slave...”

I’m curious. What kind of personal fortune does this guy have? I’d be willing to bet he gets a nice chunk of change from ACORN and its satellites.

I doubt he’s taken the vow of poverty.

What is so utterly amazing is that another completely unrelated and totally coincidental Jeremiah Wright visited the White House!

Wow, what’s the odds of that?

I heard ,” A White Mans Greed leaves a World In Need”

Have a Nice Day!

Several Democrat congresses have "apologized for slavery".

They were warned no one would pay attention and it seems they were correct.

Unfortunately, the Reverend may be right: We might just be the land where greedy bums unwilling to support themselves are trying as hard as they can to live off the taxes paid by the slaves who support themselves by earning a taxable income.
