OBAMA DENOUNCES AND DUMPS REV. WRIGHT: Presidential candidate under attack for pastor's comments.

*We don't say this lightly, but Reverend Jeremiah Wright could be the downfall of Barack Obama's bid for the presidency. On Friday, Obama who's under heavy attacks from political rivals denounced remarks from Wright, his former pastor, who has railed against the United States and accused its leaders of bringing on the Sept. 11 attacks by spreading terrorism.

You don't have to be a body language specialist to see Barac is lying about his knowledge about this guys sermons. Come on. To bad this will kill his shot at the White House, I was so hoping to watch John McCain pummel him in the general.

wasn't too long ago we were defending imus in the same way.

imus has 30 plus years of charity work and public service behind him and one somewhat funny comment ruined his rep. and career. oh and he was not even endorsing a could be leader or advising one.

the rev's words was much more anti american, racist, and full of hate. the double standard in the black community is so juvenile.

obama is flat stupid if he thinks anyone believes that this was the rev's first time preaching anti usa and white hate sermons.
political correctness applys to blacks also.

Why do labrats like yourself always assume that when one person speaks they speak for a whole entire race. In this case the numbers are gonna do the talking. People didn't think Obama would make it this far and their desperate to get him out of the race like yesterday BUT let the smearing continue it'll only make the smearers fall hurt worse.

Incidentally, this idiot preacher is the product of HBCUs.

No surprise there.

Crabs in a barrel, basically.

The Negro has just retired from the church and was looking to go on record as the man who made Obama who he is so he raised a ruckus so his name would get on the frontpage of every newspaper in America.

He put a knife in Obama's back for this privilege, there's no other way to interpret his showboating.

As to the specifics of what he said, just Google his name.

I've actually attended some of his services...i just want you to repeat the media you believe so strongly...

And, maybe not be the typical cattle you are and give and individual opinion along with proof of his so called "BAD" comments.

Maybe, you can postpone your bandwagon ride and present something!! I'll be waiting.

What are you talking about, fool?

Ever hear of YouTube?

The Negro's videoed sermons are all there -- that's where the media got them.

This guy is a bona fide shithead. He uses profanity in his sermons as well as the N-word. He's embarrassing the hell out of Obama and doing it to get his own name on the frontpage.

I'm saw him on Hannity & Combs too where he was as rude and ignorant as a person can be.

Typical dumbass megalomaniac black Baptist minister.

Obama was screwed over by his association with Rev. Wright. I guess you haven't seen the really bad video. There are a few floating around. The one I posted may be the worst. I have noticed a few posts by people such as yourself where, it seems like a little lightbulb went on after seeing this video, where they actually get it. This isn't a smear, unless you get too cosy with people like the Rev. Some people are actually getting the message. Please tell me you get it, too.
To me the Rev. seems to be only pointing out Americas flaws. How come when a person speaks the facts everybody's panties get up in a bunch. He isn't making any thing up. Some things he even said were taken out of tesk to make him look bad. Truth be told, Yall just don't want a Black man running this country. Of course everything and anyone that can be used to discredit him is gonna come out from under the rug. What can you say, it's politics.

You know America has sunk to a new low when they criticize a man for going to church. Just because I am a member of a church does not mean I support everything my minister says or believes.
This is a strategic ploy, you went after Farakhan saying kind words about Senator Obama, now you are trying to make him change churches. Do the other candidates go to church??? They run in Black churches when they want to campaign and you accept that. When has a person be lynched in the press for sitting in church listening to a man preach??? Just because you listen to rock music does it mean you do drugs????? If you watch CSI does that mean you are planning to commit a crime???? I wish Senator Obama the best, I am sorry that he is wasting his time trying to make America a better place because quite frankly...We don't deserve it. You are happy with foreclosures, unemployment, job outsourcing, no healthcare...but you beat up the guy that is trying to help you do better..... Sadly as it may be....I live in America and I am an African American female, I am treated better in other countries than I am in my homeland. And don't tell me to leave...my ancestors built this country and I be damned if I am going to leave it. It boggles my brain, we raise your children, we do your work, we care for your babies, we are doctors, lawyers, College Presidents, Physicist, Chemist,Engineers, actors, writers, your lovers but yet we are not good enough to run this country and you still lynch us only it's not with a rope but with your vicious tongues and your newspapers.

The Democrats better reel in this viciousness or they risk losing an entire race..... of people.

If Obama can be tied to Trinity, then Hillary should be tied to giving oral sex in the White House.

You know, you are right about one thing...I, personally, am not ready to have a black or half black man for President. There, I said it. I wouldn't even have voted for Colin Powell, although I think, even back then, he was infinitely better qualified. He even looked Presidential.
And you would think that Osama being half black and having a white mother would sway me, even though we really haven't seen her, yet. They, Osama and Michelle, just look like they are going to turn into white peoples worst nightmare and the changes they would try to make would not be likely to benefit me in any way.
I am voting my pocketbook, or rather, what are you likely to do for me? Besides turn the Mexicans loose on us? Besides four years of attempts at bringing back Affirmative Action. Besides pushing more minority business set asides. What are they going to do for me?
I, and a majority of my state, are going to vote Republican as we always do. Ask John Kerry and Al Gore.
Fortunately, nobody cares what you think anymore, Bubba; and mostly, you have George Bush to thank for that.

His cowboy diplomacy was the last straw.

I read somewhere more than a million people around the world have died because of it. So much for keeping the world save for democracy.

And now the economy is tanking.

The fact is, had Gore been voted in we'd be in a hell of a lot better shape than we're in today.

Will Obama screw-up? Of course he will. Big time. Look forward to it.

Will he get one million innocent people killed?

No.

All the fighting stops when he gets in office. Around the world, terrorists will give him a chance.

And that's what's important to the black, brown, and yellow people these days, Bubba. We're tired of your extermination of people of color, and, so what, if it's going to cost us and you a lot of money.

Bush was a maniac. He didn't care how many arabs died. McCain will be the same.

The party is over white man. Now bow down to your new black Commander and Chief!

Oh, Yeah!

David Bresnahan has put his finger on one of the key truths about Clinton, and Adolf Hitler. Too many people just cannot conceive that anyone could be so dishonest and so bold about their dishonesty. Their minds are totally blown by the very boldness of the dishonesty and wickedness. Hitler realized this, and counseled that, if a lie is going to be told, make it the most bold and audacious lie possible. People tend to believe the big, huge, lie, when they would discount a smaller one.

This tactic of bringing more "expert witnesses" than your accuser is more evil and troublesome than is apparent on the surface. If we assume that an accusation by an expert against Clinton is the truth, then we must recognize that the opposite assertion by Clinton's "experts" is a lie. Therefore, you have to ask yourself why it is that so many people in our society whose credentials would qualify them in people's minds as being an "expert" are so willing to become a pawn in Clinton's hands to tell his lie. When Hitler persuaded these 960 German educators to step forward with their support, why did they come so willingly?

Can people really be bought so easily? Actually, a person might come forward to support the lie that Clinton and Hitler might want told, for more than the obvious explanation that they were bought off financially.

1) They support the vision of their leader -- Hitler succeeded in his Holocaust, in no small measure, because he enunciated a bold, radical vision for the future of Germany. Many Germans who supported his vision found it easy to ignore the reality as to how Hitler was going to achieve that vision. Clinton, likewise, has always been successful in articulating a vision of the future that seems so rosy, and so achievable. Liberalism in America has always been very long on visions of utopia. Too many Americans find it too easy to support his vision, ignoring the reality of what he is doing right here and right now.

Given Clinton's unwavering support of a failing Public School System, I wonder if these 400 "scholars" were influenced by the possibility that their support might produce more financial "goodies" from Federal Government coffers? Conversely, I wonder if these "scholars" were not just a little afraid that, if they declined to support the president in this way, Clinton might dramatically reduce his patronage of their school system in an effort to punish them.

2) They are intimidated by his tactics -- Certainly, Hitler used all sorts of intimidation, both real and threatened, to force his political opponents to do his bidding. But, Clinton has used intimidation also, both real and imagined. Gary Aldrich, in his book "Unlimited Access", found himself a little intimidated by the fact that Clinton's wake was filled with so many dead bodies. Aldrich wondered if he, too, might join this dubious group of dead folk. When Clinton used the FBI to gain control of over 900 personal files on his political enemies, he knew that people opposing him would be properly intimidated!

3) They are intimidated by his personal aura -- Hitler was able to control so many people through the power emanating from his eyes; his demonic possession was so great, and the power flowing from the demons possessing him, came out through his eyes. As a result, Hitler loved to get his enemies in a face-to-face meeting,
