Obama and the Posturizing Pugnacious Preacher

I enjoyed the news of the past week. It seems Barack Obama's long-time "Christian" pastor is a race-baiting, America-hating extremist. This guy, the Reverend Jeremy Wright, told his congregation from the pulpit that 9/11 was payback for White America's "terrorism" and that its "chickens were coming home to roost," and said, "Not God Bless America, God Damn America!" His congregation stood and cheered this flaming crapola.

Now Obama has denounced these words of the good Reverend and his supporters; Obama supporters are protesting "guilt by association." Obama didn't say these things, his pastor did! It's unfair to blame these words on Obama!

No it isn't. Obama chose his association with that preacher; he didn't inherit it through family or marriage or accident. He had that preacher marry him and his wife and later baptize his children.

If David Duke had a church and I was a member of it for several years, could I then disavow Duke's racial views with any credibility? No.

Anyway, it appears to me the Reverend Jeremiah Wright is pretty white himself. Seems there was a honky in the woodpile somewhere. My wife and son are darker than he is - so to you, Jeremiah Wright I say this: back off, white boy.

Obama's troubling past is coming to the fore just as his faddish popularity is beginning to wane. Some want to know why should a man who associates with people who hate America be our next president? I don't understand the question. He's a Democrat so most of his associates are going to be Democrats. They all hate America.
