Could it be that the Reverend has such a way with words that it sends a shiver up Obama’s leg?
why is MO’s role not mentioned? She was the one originally from Chicago and she’s probably the one who decided where to go to chuch is my guess.
Good Lord. How do you even communicate with someone that a) believes that what this country needs is radical change; and b) thinks that Washington is the heart and soul of the country.
These can be boiled down, he said, to three two words: liberation, transformation and reconciliation racism and bigotry.
There; fixed the liberal BS.
Wright had this to say about Obama:
He’s a politician, I’m a pastor. We speak to two different audiences. And he says what he has to say as a politician. I say what I have to say as a pastor. Those are two different worlds. I do what I do. He does what politicians do.
“Barack will require you to work. He is going to demand that you shed your cynicism. That you put down your divisions. That you come out of your isolation, that you move out of your comfort zones. That you push yourselves to be better. And that you engage. Barack will never allow you to go back to your lives as usual, uninvolved, uninformed.”

Broder needs to do more research:
James Cone:
-Founder of black liberation theology
-Professor of Systematic Theology at the Union Theological Seminary in New York City
-Views America as an irredeemably racist nation
“What we need is the divine love as expressed in Black Power, which is the power of Black people to destroy their oppressors here and now by any means at their disposal. Unless God is participating in this holy activity, we must reject his love.” — James Cone, A Black Theology of Liberation
“This country was founded for whites and everything that has happened in it has emerged from the white perspective. What we need is the destruction of whiteness, which is the source of human misery in the world.” — James Cone

I thought it was political. Obama was looking for a church to give him a political base, and Wright’s church gave him the biggest bang for the buck.
Obama’s handlers are surely doing a terrible job of helping their candidate out of this imbroglio. The solution is easier than one would suppose if they knew someone of faith and how they arrived at and so forth.
Socialists are unable to tell the truth. YOU CAN’T HANDLE THE TRUTH. < /S >
Barrack is either a maroon for taking 20 years to realise that his paster and Black Liberation Theology is racist, or is either a racist or condones racist speech himself.
Of course he’s vague. If he tries to explain it, it will just expose more ties to the Hyde Park left, more associates with bizarre views or unsavory pasts tied to communist front organizations, or more likely both.
