A new video has just surfaced showing Barack Obama’s 20-year pastor and mentor, Reverend Jeremiah Wright, praising Marxism. This speech by Wright was on September 17th of this year at the anniversary celebration of Monthly Review. (videos below) Wright said that while the “corporate media” provide a “binary lens” of the world, in such terms as “communist versus Christian,” Monthly Review offers what it calls “no-nonsense Marxism.” He added, “You dispel all the negative images we have been programmed to conjure up with just the mention of that word socialism or Marxism.” He concluded by calling America “land of the...

The White House has been barraged with requests to release the names of its visitors. Today they release the first 500 visits, all from the period of Jan 20-July 31. Some of the Names you can find on the list are Bill Ayers 2x, George Soros 4x, Michael Moore 8X, the head of the ACORN affiliated Union the SEIU Andrew Stern 20x,Jeremiah Wright, GE/NBC head Jeff Immelt 5x, Jesse Jackson 6x, John Edwards2x, Al Sharpton 2x, and of course television goddess Oprah Winfrey. Strangely each party's house leader Pelosi, and Boehner were only at the WH once. The Senate leadership...

THE GHOST OF CHRISTMAS PAST JEREMIAH WRIGHT RETURNS thelastcrusade.org The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) is drawing criticism for selecting President Barrack Obama’s former pastor as the principal speaker at an awards dinner in Maryland. Perry Ealim, a black businessman who is scheduled to receive an award at the November 20 event, says many of his friends and associates refuse to attend the dinner because Rev. Jeremiah Wright is going to be the speaker. "I am happy for your honor, however, I cannot support an organization that would have a racist/bigot such as Mr. Wright...

"Hear our cry, Obama." "Deliver us, Obama." Video at link.

Obama-file 2 Barack Obama Was Endorsed by Chicago Marxists Obama-file 1 here Barack Obama came to Chicago in 1983, inspired by the city's new mayor Harold Hashington. A long time Communist Party associate and probable member, Washington, who died in office in 1987, stacked the city's administration with communists and socialists. Washington was also close to the Democratic Socialists of America. DSA was formed in 1983 by from a coalition of former Trotskyists, "new left" activists, ex Socialist Party and Communist Party members. DSA is now the US's largest Marxist organisation, however its moderate name has allowed it to infiltrate...

Okay-- imagine that the week after the worst terrorist attack in world history, in which almost 3,000 of your countreyment were murdered you were in church and the pastor began telling the parishioners that the United States brought it on itself. That we deserved it. That America deserved to be damned by God. Imagine he's saying this, complete with foul language, in front of your young children. He's saying that your country deserved the vicious assault and that your countrymen just got in the way. Wouldn't you punch that pompous asshole in the face?

July 28, 2009 BY JESSE JACKSON President Obama has stated that the arrest of Harvard Professor Henry Louis "Skip" Gates in his home provides a "teachable moment" about racial profiling, and the "relations between police officers and minority communities." The president's remarks -- that the police "acted stupidly" -- sparked a backlash that the White House has tried to defuse by inviting arresting officer Sgt. James Crowley and Gates to sit down over a beer at the White House. The meeting, slated to take place in the next few days, will no doubt result in consensus that we should all...

NRO Corner: A Letterman apologist named Jason Zengerle at the TNR blog claims logic is not my strong suit since I defended Sarah Palin's family and thought Letterman's apology was, well, like most of what he does these days, infantile and cowardly: I know logic isn't VDH's strong suit, but is it really so hard to believe that the joke Letterman was making about a Palin daughter getting "knocked up" was about the Palin daughter who, you know, got knocked up? Is that supposed to be funny in a Lettermanesque way? Zengerle apparently cannot follow basic logic, so here...

The shooting by James Van Brunn at the Holocaust museum for most people, was simply the act of a deranged anti-Semitic lunatic who, like most hate mongers spent his life blaming others for his own shortcoming and inadequacies. But what could be a bigger problem for President Obama is having to deal with the fact that the day before the shooting, similar lunatic rantings were made by the man who Obama said was like a member of his own family, the man who introduced him to his wife, the man who baptized his children and the man in whose church...

Somehow I don't feel better. Yesterday President Obama's former religious mentor the Rev. Jeremiah Wright said "Them Jews Aren't Going to Let Him [Obama] Talk To Me" Today he corrected himself. When Interviewed on “Make it Plain” with Mark Thompson, he said I didn't mean ALL Jews just Zionists. Remember this is the guy who taught faith to our President for over 20 years. Its no wonder that Obama has taken an anti-Israel position in his Middle East Policy. Read More below:

The Daily Press in Newport News, Virginia interviewed Rev. Jeremiah Wright as he appeared in nearby Hampton for a ministers conference. He said of Barack Obama: "Of course I voted for him; he's my son. I'm proud of him," Wright said. "I've got five biological kids. They all make mistakes and bad choices. I haven't stopped loving any of them." Then there’s this, perhaps a reference to Jewish Obama aides like David Axelrod and Rahm Emanuel: Asked if he had spoken to the President, Wright said: "Them Jews aren't going to let him talk to me. I told my baby...

President Obama is distancing himself from the National Day of Prayer by nixing a formal early morning service and not attending a large Catholic prayer breakfast the next morning. All Mr. Obama will do for the National Day of Prayer, which is Thursday, is sign a proclamation honoring the day, which originated in 1952 when Congress set aside the first Thursday in May for the observance. For the past eight years, President George W. Bush invited selected Christian and Jewish leaders to the White House East Room, where he typically would give a short speech and several leaders offered prayers....

Washington churches eye a prize — the Obamas Family's search for a spiritual home sets off competition among ministers By Rachel L. Swarns The New York Times WASHINGTON - The invitations have come in neatly typed letters, whispered entreaties and please-join-us blogs. They have come from predominantly white churches and predominantly black churches, venerable churches with distinguished lineages and smaller, plucky churches with little more than spirit and gumption. The prize? The most sought after churchgoers in Washington: President Obama and his family. Mr. Obama’s search for a church home has touched off a frenzied competition among ministers of various...

The recent appointment and ultimate withdrawal of Chas Freeman to head the National Intelligence Council has exposed much that is wrong with President Barack Obama’s first months in office, both in terms of policy and vetting, as well as the media coverage surrounding both. Many of Obama’s supporters said it was unfair to criticize Obama’s associations with people like the unrepentant terrorist Bill Ayers and the anti-Semitic preacher of hate, the Rev. Jeremiah Wright, and called it guilt by association. It is now becoming clearer why those sorts of associations matter.On February 26, Chas W. Freeman Jr. was named by...

Back in May, when the furor over Jeremiah Wright threatened to derail the Obama campaign, the candidate mournfully explained his decision to leave the controversial Trinity United Church of Christ. "We don't want to have to answer for everything that's stated in a church," Obama said. "On the other hand, we don't want to have a church subjected to the scrutiny that a presidential campaign legitimately undergoes." After Obama parted from Wright, the preacher and Trinity United became the campaign issue that dared not speak its name.

Benediction at Obama's inauguration, Rev. Joseph Lowery: 'Lord, in the memory of all the saints who from their labors rest, and in the joy of a new beginning, we ask you to help us work for that day when black will not be asked to get in the back, when brown can stick around... when the red man can get ahead man; and when white will embrace what is right. That all those who do justice and love mercy say Amen. Say Amen'...

Rev. Jeremiah Wright returned to the pulpit of Trinity United Church of Christ on Sunday, reports Manya Brachear of the Chicago Tribune. Will the networks notice that Wright suggested ABC and CNN were "the gates of Hell"? They might enjoy Wright suggesting Sean Hannity and Bill O’Reilly were Satan, but he also listed the Chicago newspapers and Time magazine. He also mocked Elizabeth Hasselbeck as factually challenged – even as he insisted that December 7 was the day the United States dropped the atomic bomb on Hiroshima instead of Pearl Harbor Day.

Jeremiah Wright is the the 'Reverend' best known for making headlines as president elect Barack Obama's controversial former pastor. Well, the Rev. Jeremiah Wright is making headlines again yet again. It would seem that Rev. Jeremiah Wright is a hypocrite. A Texas woman has come forward claiming to have had an illicit affair with the cleryman.

Barack Obama has pledged to restore America's ailing economy and its "moral stature in the world". He made the comments during his first major televised interview since being voted America's 44th president earlier this month. The President-elect told CBS programme 60 Minutes he would deliver a clear break in foreign policy from the Bush administration. Mr Obama confirmed reports he will pull troops out of Iraq and limit the offshoots of the "war on terror", including bringing an end to the notorious Guantanamo Bay. He said the moves were an effort to "regain America's moral stature in the world". But...

(CNSNews.com) – President-elect Barack Obama said in 2004 – while he was a state legislator running for a U.S. Senate seat – that he attended services at Trinity United Church of Christ every week. This is in contrast to what Obama, as a presidential candidate, said this year after controversial anti-American remarks by the Rev. Jeremiah Wright surfaced. Obama then told news outlets that he did not attend the church frequently and was not aware of Wright’s comments. The comments from Obama about his church attendance appeared in the transcript of an interview posted Tuesday on the religious news Web...

The National Republican Trust PAC, the late entrant to the universe of independent GOP groups, appears to have emerged as the best-funded. The group, which is airing an ad attacking Obama with Jeremiah Wright's sermons nationally, has reported spending $6,368,574.65, according to an FEC filing, which doesn't detail the expenditures. The number includes television advertising and calls to voters, a consultant to the committee said; it's also spent some money fundraising. The group can raise only hard money, in relatively small chunks, and its success reflects the eagerness of a segment of the Republican base harder than McCain has apparently...

The media has a news blackout on Obama's 20 years intimate relationship and alliance with his mentor/father, Rev. Jeremiah Wrong, I mean Wright! The media briefly mentioned about the revelation of his hateful inflammatory sermons, then it died down. You need to watch how Obama changes his story! ie he lied again Rev. Wright of the Trinity United Church of Christ, was Sen. Obama’s spiritual adviser. He supported Obama’s campaign. his endorsement for Obama was taken down from his website after the expose. Sen.

Obama’s Venomous Artist-Fundraiser by Stig O’Hara and Dirk McQuickly Barack Obama has accepted an estimated two to four million dollars[1] through the help of Shepard Fairey, a "graffiti artist" who paints works glorifying Stalin, Lenin and Mao, while depicting Uncle Sam as a bloodthirsty killer -- and Obama has even written Fairey that he admires "the political messages involved in your work."[2] The political messages in Fairey's art are: 1) Communist dictators are god-like supermen 2) The United States is a police state at home and an imperialist oppressor abroad 3) Capitalism is an evil system based on greed and...

In 1995, Barack Obama gave a TV interview to discuss the memoir he wrote, "Dreams From My Father." Philip Klein at The American Spectator picked up on this back in August, but the video is making rounds again now. Obama spoke very highly of his then pastor Rev.Jeremiah Wright(my empahasis added:) OBAMA: In times of economic scarcity, ahm, generally, ahh, the politicians in this country, right now, ahh, want to look for scapegoats, want to organize around race, as opposed to around principle, and around values, ahh, and I think that's a mistake, and I think that can be countered,...

Get Ready for Some Football! Message from The National Republican Trust PAC From Scott Wheeler Dear Supporter: It's almost one minute to midnight. We are rolling out our final effort to defeat Barack Obama on national TV and major markets in swing states. The latest AP poll finds that 1 in 7 voters still hasn't decided how they will really vote — that's almost 15% of the electorate. Many voters simply don't decide until the last minute. Our ads can have a powerful effect. This weekend we want to buy ads on both the NFL Football game on Sunday and...

Message from The National Republican Trust PAC From Scott Wheeler Dear Supporter: Your incredible outpouring to support our emergency effort to stop Barack Obama is working! In the past two weeks we have raised over $6 million. We are close to raising a total of $7 million or more today. With your help today we can make a final, big push this weekend to air our TV ads exposing Barack Obama for the radical he is. We are now running ads on national broadcast TV networks. We are already saturating battleground states with our TV ad reminding voters of...

I find this rather interesting audio. Obama's claimed that he didn't hear anything like the G D america stuff, yet here he is plainly speaking about the "liberation" of the church. He can't have it both ways.

Exclusive Look at Jeremiah Wright's Mansion - Foxnews Maybe Obama’s aunt Zeituni Onyango could stay a spell.

I have some incredible news for you. Last week I reported that the National Republican Trust PAC had raised more than $1 million for its emergency effort to expose Barack Obama in key swing states. Our goal was to raise $2 million by today. We smashed that goal: we have raised over $3 million today! Your generosity made this possible. You are standing up for this country against one of the most vicious assaults ever waged on the Republican party by the liberal media establishment. Smear after smear against Sarah Palin and John McCain. But Obama's leftwing agenda and radical...

Jeremiah Wright returns to the campaign via an ad that questions the Illinois senator's judgment. The ad is brought to you by The National Republican Trust PAC that told reporters that it is putting $2.5 million behind this spot featuring Rev. Jeremiah Wright in Ohio, Pennsylvania and Florida

I've added a link at the top of the latest posts pages to view "Selected Free Republic McCain vs Obama promo videos." We usually only run these kind of promos during our FReepathons, but I thought I'd continue these selected videos until the election is over. We're now receiving nearly 2,000,000 page views per day from 200,000 to 300,000 daily visitors. Half of these visits are from new visitors. I'd like to give them all an opportunity to see and hear the truth about The One, That One, The Marxist Obamessiah. Please bear with me. I'll take them down after...

Fortunately, a video of Obama in his own words has been unearthed. It gives little doubt that his hidden agenda comes right out of the school of the black liberation theology spewed by his mentor, Wright, and that, if elected, he will try to gain reparations for blacks and a redistribution of the wealth you and I have earned over so many years of work and sacrifice.

No, it wasn't a mirage. During the Republican presidential debates, Sen. John McCain often went toe to toe with his adversaries...just ask former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney. I think we all can remember, along with Romney, seeing the senior Senator from Arizona grit his teeth and unleash some biting attacks that would have made Don Rickles proud. Last week, the third and final debate was held between McCain and his Democratic challenger Sen. Barack Obama. I think it's safe to say, the McCain we saw during the Republican primary season never appeared during the debates with Obama and many are...

On the heels of telling the Pittsburgh Tribune Review that racism would play into the vote in Western Pennsylvania for president next month, Rep. Jack Murtha told local Pittsburgh television station WTAE that it's difficult for many in the area to change, saying just five to 10 years ago the entire area was "redneck." You have to wonder how residents of Pennsylvania like the descriptive phrases that have been piled on in the past few months. First, it was bitter and God and gun clinging, then it was racist, now they are rednecks. In an interview with reporter David Brown...

Rick Davis now is reconsidering whether McCain will go after Rev. Wright, folks, don't give up this winning issue yet! With Powell endorsing Obama, McCain has nothing to lose, but everything to gain! Email/fax to GOP staffs & people, they need to hear from us demanding that they decide NOW, before it's tooo little, too late! I emailed weekas ago the following script for mccain to use in talking points/ad. Can somebody upload this onto U-tube? I would not mind paying for it. Rev. Jeremiah Wright of the Trinity United Church of Christ in Chicago, was Sen. Obama’s pastor and...

With the election two weeks away, one thing has become clear: Barack Obama is not only the most liberal presidential candidate in recent memory, he lacks a moral compass. How else does one explain his sitting in the pews of the Rev. Jeremiah Wright’s church as Wright spews forth hateful fabrications about America, whites, and Israel? How else explain his being “friendly” with admitted domestic terrorist William Ayers, who told the New York Times he does not rule out engaging in bombings again? In a chilling video on YouTube, Larry Grathwohl, a former member of the Weather Underground which Ayers...

By Christopher Cook What can derail Obama on his crazy-train ride to becoming America's Dear Leader President?Well, the first point has to be that given the climate, he should be ten points out in front. After eight years of the media and the left cranking the permatantrum™, the ever-swinging swing voter should be ready to give in and give the tantrum-throwing baby whatever it wants. And yet, not surprisingly, they haven't yet fully bought the Obamaessiah.  Barack Obama is an appallingly bad candidate, and in most any other circumstance, he'd be way behind. Only in a year that should be...

It looks like Jeremiah Wright was just the tip of the iceberg. Not only did Barack Obama savor Wright’s sermons, Obama gave legitimacy — and a whole lot of money — to education programs built around the same extremist anti-American ideology preached by Reverend Wright. And guess what? Bill Ayers is still palling around with the same bitterly anti-American Afrocentric ideologues that he and Obama were promoting a decade ago. All this is revealed by a bit of digging, combined with a careful study of documents from the Chicago Annenberg Challenge, the education foundation Obama and Ayers jointly led in...

The Obama campaign has come out saying that Barack Obama was unaware of former Weather Underground member William Ayer's past when the two met more than a decade ago (when Obama kicked off his Illinois political carrer in Ayer's living room). When Rev. Wright went on a tirade before the National Press Club, Barack Obama came out and said "This is not the man I knew." When Tony Rezko was being exposed as a crook, Barack Obama came out and said "This is not the Tony Rezko I knew." Is America dumb enough to believe that Barack Obama was clueless...

CLEARWATER, Fla. (AP) — Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin expanded her attack on Democrat Barack Obama's character Monday to include his relationship with an incendiary former pastor as well as his ties to 1960s-era radical Bill Ayers. In the process, Palin toned down her description of the Obama-Ayers relationship after her weekend remarks were criticized as exaggerated, but at the same time she embarked on a discussion of Obama's relationship with his former pastor, the Rev. Jeremiah A. Wright Jr., which Republican presidential candidate John McCain had signaled he did not want to be a part of his campaign.

Daughter: Rev. Wright NOT publishing book in October A New York magazine cover story last week reignited the debate over Rev. Jeremiah Wright when it stated - without attribution - that the former pastor of Sen. Barack Obama was releasing a new book. But his daughter, Jeri, told me today that the story is absolutely false. "The only book we're working on is the history of Trinity (United Church of Christ) and I haven't even started editing that," Wright told Essence.com. After I reached out to her, she called her father, who is teaching and ministering in Ghana (I ran...

He almost wrecked Barack Obama's presidential dreams, and now firebrand pastor Jeremiah Wright has helped destroy a Dallas church worker's marriage - and her job, The Post has learned. Elizabeth Payne, 37, said she had a steamy sexual affair with the controversial, racially divisive man of the cloth while she was an executive assistant at a church headed by a popular Wright protégé. When word of the unholy alliance got out, Payne's husband dumped her, and she was canned from the plum job at Friendship-West Baptist Church, she told The Post. "I was involved with Rev. Wright, and that's why...

Barack Obama’s former pastor has been cavorting with another man’s wife, whom he romanced while she worked at a church in Dallas run by one of his disciples, according to a report in the New York Post. Elizabeth Payne, 37, told the Post that she and Rev. Jeremiah Wright, 67, had a sexual relationship this year and that she was fired from her job when the affair was made public. Payne had been working at Friendship-West Baptist Church as a secretary to the Rev. Frederick Haynes III, a longtime Wright protege.

Jeremiah Wright, the firebrand pastor and former intimate of Barack Obama - the pair fell out when footage of Wright emerged damning America - is in the news again. On the front page of today's New York Post, he is accused of having an affair with one Elizabeth Payne, (pictured), a 37-year-old church worker, who has told this was the reason for the eventual breakdown of her marriage. Payne claims she and Wright, who christened Obama's children and presided over his marriage to Michelle, began their relationship while he was an executive assistant at a Dallas church headed by one...

NEWARK — Senator Barack Obama’s former pastor, the Rev. Jeremiah A. Wright Jr., has kept a relatively low profile since Mr. Obama cut ties with him in April. But every year for the past two decades, Mr. Wright has led a revival at the Elmwood United Presbyterian Church in New Jersey, and on Sunday he returned, this time with kind words for the man who called him “divisive and destructive.”... “Twenty years ago,” he told the crowd at Elmwood’s branch here on Clinton Avenue, “a scrawny little kid, pointed nose, big-eared, mama from Kansas, daddy from Kenya — the Lord...

"Obama: "That's Just How White Folks Will Do You" A 1995 piece in the liberal Chicago Reader basically refutes Obama's statements that he never heard Pastor Jeremiah Wright invoke his racist rants and also provides some additional insight into Obama's early years in politics. "That's just how white folks will do you," Obama writes. "It wasn't merely the cruelty involved; I was learning that black people could be mean and then some. It was a particular brand of arrogance, an obtuseness in otherwise sane people that brought forth our bitter laughter. It was as if whites didn't know they were...
