The alleged extremist,and Racist Rev Wright will be in Columbus GA for an organized rally (or something or another) May 2-8. The local news paper claims May 4th but according to unidentified inside sources he allegedly arrives May 1st evening attends some meetings and then speaks May 2nd, 3rd. On the 4th he gives a so called open to the public speech and then is available to the public.

He has been here several times before and has allegedly met with prominent city officials and residents several times, who have allegedly heard his hate speeches before.

He is allegedly a guest of a City Council Member's Hotel which is no anywhere near his speaking engagements during his time here (Hilton Garden Inn North Columbus)

The News paper here finally has very limited watered down coverage on this subject after several letters, callers and Bloggers became outraged and the story ran through the internet.

The question I guess is what will he say during those so called off camera secret meetings not so much on his public forum. Additionally why is this church seeking his endorsements if they do not wholly agree with his beliefs.

St. John AME Church, 3980 Steam Mill Road Columbus GA.

Unfortunately a lot of this can not be proved since it is second or third hand but The Church does Admit he will be here during that time frame.

It was on the evening news one day this week that he will be here soon. I don't think it is a big secret, is it?

Hell, I don't much think white people invented AIDS to kill black people, but if I was black I'd have a pretty healthy dislike for white people and what they have done to black people.
And since when is it NOT the doings of a terrorist nation to bomb another country as we have done countless times?
Sure, other people have killed US citizens, but we've killed more of them than they have of us, and let's face it, we invaded Iraq for invented reasons. Sounds like a terrorist nation to me.
And don't bother calling me a traitor:
a) I don't care what you have to say
b) given what this country is like under Bush, that's a compliment.
he was a white guy maybe

Everybody needs someone to dislike or hate. Some just base it on skin color. It's kind of like buying a car based on the upholstry... like the hater, it ain't too smart.

So white people did bad stuff to black people generations ago (slavery, Segregation, discrimination etc...)
This now justifies Revenge for Black people?
Why not revenge for Indians?
Why not sanctioned Revenge for Irish people to England?
What about revenge for Eastern Europe on the ottomans (turkey)?
what about the rest?
Hey I am white, and no one from my family, or my wife's family ever owned a slave or participated in the trade or even in segregation.
My family is from Eastern Europe and I am the first born in the US, my Wife's Family is from French Canada but we are discriminated against from Affirmative action, and racist hate speach from J. Wright, Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, Louis FaraCON, and everyone in the Racist NAACP.
You people make me sick and are causing racism!!!
As for the war the lefts only argument is WMD, lets not forget we went there to end the tyranny and try to establish freedom.
Timing was bad and approach was wrong but not the cause.
The people screaming for us to get out of Iraq want us to do something in Sudan, and other places in the world.
I agree but we have to start somewhere.
Black racists everywhere
