And in what might be the biggest projection of all-time, Sharpton claims Republicans have a “long history of fear and smear.”

Via Newsbusters:

SHARPTON: We start in 1988 with the attack add against Michael Dukakis. And we saw it again in 2004 with the swiftboating of John Kerry. The party has run entire campaigns on character assassination. But the latest effort, it’s about more than just winning an election. It’s about dehumanizing President Obama.

. . . I think we went through that four years ago, everyone knows where the president stands. I think this was more geared trial to trying to bring race and really dehumanize the president.

. . . I must say that Ricketts has said he is not going to do it. He turned it down. It’s merely a proposal that he rejects. But the fact that these major strategists would go and try and bring this plan about shows some very insidious political maneuvering that really wants to dehumanize this president.

This would have been a major cheat on Barack Obama’s part. Imagine if any Republican candidate had been found with a cheat of that magnitude in his or her past.

Telling the partial truth about the miscreants that the Rats choose to run is “smear and fear”?

These days it seems to me Obama usually stands on a golf course.

The following is the statement of beliefs of Wright's church, which 0bama attended for 20 years. Exactly who is racist?


About Us

We are a congregation which is Unashamedly Black and Unapologetically Christian... Our roots in the Black religious experience and tradition are deep, lasting and permanent. We are an African people, and remain "true to our native land," the mother continent, the cradle of civilization. God has superintended our pilgrimage through the days of slavery, the days of segregation, and the long night of racism. It is God who gives us the strength and courage to continuously address injustice as a people, and as a congregation. We constantly affirm our trust in God through cultural expression of a Black worship service and ministries which address the Black Community.

Trinity United Church of Christ adopted the Black Value System written by the Manford Byrd Recognition Committee chaired by Vallmer Jordan in 1981. We believe in the following 12 precepts and covenantal statements. These Black Ethics must be taught and exemplified in homes, churches, nurseries and schools, wherever Blacks are gathered. They must reflect on the following concepts:

  1. Commitment to God
  2. Commitment to the Black Community
  3. Commitment to the Black Family
  4. Dedication to the Pursuit of Education
  5. Dedication to the Pursuit of Excellence
  6. Adherence to the Black Work Ethic
  7. Commitment to Self-Discipline and Self-Respect
  8. Disavowal of the Pursuit of "Middleclassness"
  9. Pledge to make the fruits of all developing and acquired skills available to the Black Community
  10. Pledge to Allocate Regularly, a Portion of Personal Resources for Strengthening and Supporting Black Institutions
  11. Pledge allegiance to all Black leadership who espouse and embrace the Black Value System
  12. Personal commitment to embracement of the Black Value System.
The Pastor as well as the membership of Trinity United Church of Christ is committed to a 10-point Vision:

  1. A congregation committed to ADORATION.
  2. A congregation preaching SALVATION.
  3. A congregation actively seeking RECONCILIATION.
  4. A congregation with a non-negotiable COMMITMENT TO AFRICA.
  5. A congregation committed to BIBLICAL EDUCATION.
  6. A congregation committed to CULTURAL EDUCATION.
  7. A congregation committed to the HISTORICAL EDUCATION OF AFRICAN PEOPLE IN DIASPORA.
  8. A congregation committed to LIBERATION.
  9. A congregation committed to RESTORATION.
  10. A congregation working towards ECONOMIC PARITY.


The document is verbatim from the files of Jeremiah Wright's TUCC website, ca 2008 -- when Øbozo had been attending there for 20 years.

All I did was add emphasis.

We’re not racist. We just don’t like Sharpton-Americans — you know that pesky little subset of self victimized African-Americans. So, the 8% of African-Americans that aren’t going to vote for Obama are alright in my book.

You can keep the Sharpton-Americans ... the 92% that will vote for OBama *just because he’s black*.

I have a book review about Sharpton and the Tawana Brawley hoax in my files. The book might be worth getting and reading.

“Wash. Post, Book World,” July 10, 1989, P.B1 & B10, “Brawley & The Sins of the Media: Behind the Coverage, A Readiness to Be Used”, by Mike Taibbi and Anna Sims-Phillips, Harcourt Brace Jovanovich, 375 pp. $18.95

Didn’t have a racist bone in my body from growing up in the ‘50s (in a predominately Black neighborhood for the first 6 years) until recently. They are beginning to convince me that being White means that you HAVE to be racist.
