You want to know what's wrong with this country? What really needs to be "changed" is THIS:
"I've been to his church. I've heard numerous amounts of his speeches," Kilpatrick said. "I think he's probably one of the greatest orators to walk this earth. If he says something to offend people, he apologizes."
The embattled mayor is facing his own personal controversy in the form of perjury, misconduct and obstruction of justice charges that stem from a text-messaging sex scandal.
Above is pictured Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick singing the praises of Jeremiah Wright who was the speaker at the Detroit NAACP dinner. One as*hole prasing another as*hole and a bunch of people cheering about it. (Go to the Detroit thread and find the link to the new text messages just released)
When will people stop idolizing and rewarding bad behavior like these two men's?
Now, Kilpatrick who is facing firing, who will be prosecuted for perjuring himself, has cheated repeatedly on his wife, lied about firing police officers and cost city $9 million, and probably had an exotic dancer murdered... will be getting his own Cable Talk Show in Detroit! Maybe he'll have Rev Wright on?
Excellent point. Like the hooker who worked for NY Dem Governor, Elliot Spitzer. She gets fame and book deals. For what? For committing a crime of prostitution?!? Come on!!
Wright and Kilpatrick are both scum. Americans should be ASHAMED we have people like this in this coutry. These are scum buckets. They are Elliot Spitzers of a different kind.
so...he'll leap onto the podium at his inauguration, whip out an AK and start mowing down the honky Christians?
Since he's kept this mad desire so well hidden all this time, like since infancy (hidden from everyone but you that is) actually I think that shows remarkable restraint and moderation. Maybe he'll restrain himself long enough to be a pretty good Prez.
Typical double standard that blacks love to use these days. If I or someone else drops the N word, chances are we would be banned from this site and probably, no joke, have the FBI, SPLC and some other Federal agency track our IP address. Use the words cracker or honky and its overlooked or accepted. I'd like to thank forty years of liberalism in this country for creating this mess.

Yet this guy can call for the extermination of all white people.
(Gosh, I didn't know I was a plantation owner or that I want to kill black people until this dude set me straight! Also, I did not know that I was a "N.")
Kwame Kilpatrick made a stupid mistake and he has been caught red handed. He looks pretty stupid in the public's eye. What did he expect to gain by mentioning his adoration of Reverend Jerimiah Wright. Even Obama has called Wrights latest performance "Outrageous" and "contemptable". Did Kilpatrick hope to deflect criticism from himself by mentioning Wright? Maybe it's the old "Two Peas in a Pod" defense.
I don't think we have heard the last of Jerimiah Wright. I've heard that Sharpton has been on him like stink on shirt telling him to "shut up and stay out of the news". No doubt Wright has hurt Obama. People see Obama as a willing listener to a vulgar mouthed, racist, sexist, anti-American, anti-Christian loud mouth preacher.Instead of preaching the love of God and the salvation of Jesus Christ, Obama listened to Wright preach black liberation theology which teaches hate of white people, calling them opressors. Wright learned his brand of liberation theology from James Cone and his good friend Minister Louis Farrakhan of the Nation of Islam, muslim who has preached "hate whitey" for decades.
After 20 years opf learning hate from Wright Obama now wants to be the President of the US, of all races. Even the ones he was taught to hate.
Obama, change that scares the shirt out of me. NOBAMA!!!
I hate to say this but Firekwame and Major Minor are just white version of Rev. Right and Kwame Kilpatrick. You both don't realize that you racist, just like Rev. right and Kwame Kiplatrick, and that's a shame.
Both of your kind(black and white) have this constant fear of the 'other people' out to get you and kill you or take your job. Get over it. Rev. Right believes that white people are giving AIDS to black people, while people like(firekwame and major minor) believe that black people are anti-american and racist and trying to kill you or take your job. This constant crying is frankly, annoying.

Sorry Jessica but you are wrong. Just because I criticize Obama is no reason to label me as a racist. Your fellow Obamanites have tried that before and it didn't work. Calling me a racist or any other name simply isn't going to get me to shut up. I wouldn't vote for Obama if he was white, yellow, red or purple. He is a socialist. I am a believer in constitutional democracy, not socialism. If YOU think I am a racist that's your problem. People that know me know that I am not.
It won't embarass me so if it makes you feel like you've won go ahead call me a name. You can do better than just racist, add a few adjectives like the ones Rev. Wright used in front of children in his church.
There, now don't you feel like you have really accomplished something worthwhile by calling me a name?
Barack Obama is obviously not a very responsible person given that he sat in a church preaching racial hate for 20 + years and not once do we have a record of him complaining or walking out in protest.
IN ANSWER TO YOUR QUESTION ABOVE:
*I think that Al Sharpton, known for being a big guy with bad hair (kind of like a slickback Don King do) would probably have walked out on Jerimiah Wright saying "dayuuum he didn't have to hate on white people in a CHURCH!!" *Jesse Jackson would have sat through it then said to Wright "You desecrated the information without provocation. You are an abomination, no exagerration!" *Malcolm X wouldn't have said anything since he is dead. *Your mailman would have said "I wish you peeps would quit subscribing to these heavyass magazines. Like I give a shirt about that crazy preacher and I ain't votin' for NObama"
Every Catholic in American are not very responsible people to sitting in their churches knowing what was going on and is still going on. This sounds ridiculous doesn't it. So does your topic. Like I said if this is all you have then you have nothing.

Somebody didn't do their homework in English. I have no idea what the above says.
I taught high school math and science and coached for 31 years.
The above is pretty typical of the English skills for below average to low average English skills today.
Our school had great English teachers but the job was tough because the kids didn't care and the parents didn't support the teachers. Thus low expectations and low performance.
Schools today rarely fail students because that "sends a negative message" and, as a principal once told me "he might drop out if we give him an F, give him a D" (the kid had a total 19 average and skipped every single test I gave).
*********************************************
Jerimiah Wright was Obama's spiritual advisor and preacher for over 20 years. Obama and his family sat and listened to Wright use foul language in front of children and blaspheme Christianity and there is no record of him ever walking out or complaining.
Just because I criticize Obama is no reason to label me as a racist.
That's not why you're a racist, no.

This doesn't support your statement, either.

You, of all people, shouldn't be throwing out charges of racism. I think you threw out the cracker insult at me the on another thread. But, of course, you *claim* to be white, so that nullifies any chance that its racist, since it's a white using it towards another white.
