It's sad that you have been so badly misinformed... If you knew, or cared about, the truth, you would be a Tea Party Republican...

Ahh, the spin of a Democrat..! The socilst thug only disassociated himself from Wright as after the poo hit the fan and the world found out the radials the slime ball hangs with..
AS for your other brilliant statement about priests, that would be true if said offending priests condoned molestation in every sermon the way Wright did with racism..!
Geta clue, there is still time to join the good side.. We'll save you all, even the ignorant who believe n the Chacigo thug..

I'm not a member of the Tea Party but I know people that are and they are NOT racist...

So I guess I'd have to say the Good Ole Rev Wright is because of the way you have asked the question....

That can't possibly be true as Obama is a muslim-all of the right wingers have said he is, so why would he be going to a non muslim church every week? It just don't make sense.. he is a muslim , all of you righties have proven that to me- so why....

Of course I'm a racist. Which is just another way of saying I didn't vote for Barack Obama.And it's not just me. About 200 million other voting-age Americans didn't turn out for Obama either. Does it matter that some of my fellow "racist"--people who voted for McCain, a third party candidate or didn't vote at all--are black, hispanic,gay,or even all three? Nope. The O-bots don't do triangulation. There is no third way.
An unknown state senator gives a single speech at the 2004 Democratic National Convention and instantly becomes a competitive national canidate. It's simply an undeniable fact that race opened the door to the presidency for Obama.His intelligence, hard work, smart campaigning- and his understanding of the powerful appeal for the vast majority of Americans of voting for a black man-closed the deal.It's hardly a surprise that the race obsessed Left would assume that everyone else embraces identity politics, too.They simply can't imagine Americans who don't see the world through the prism of race.
In the upside down world of the Obama Nation,people who spend a lifetime following Reverend Wright aren't racists. But people who show up at a rally to oppose single- payer healthcare are. If thats the standard the mainstream media and liberal thinkers are going to use to accuse American citizens of racism, then I am a racist. And i'll take a mob of reactionary racist over the cheering congregation of Jeremiah G D America Wright church anytime.

Let's take your statement and change a few words.


so basically the argument they use is that since some made some outrageous statements, and since some claimed belonged to the tea party, All tea party supporters are somehow part of what some said-or must agree or believe with what some said-even though the Tea Party disassociated itself from the people who made those remarks.

A lot of people who post here claim that because some idiot makes racists or other idiotic remarks, they represent ALL people who allign themselves with the Tea Party, which is not true.

Better go see a Doctor about that severe case of Selective Memory Syndrome you display. I'd recommend a proctologist.

B O and MeMeMe(never proud)chelle stank up the pews for 20+ years listening to this devil spout his inflammatory anti-American-Marxist-Black Independence vitriol.
How conveniently you forget that he married them and then later baptized their girls before he had a chance to Pro-Choice them!

This typical racist black "?church?" is made up of 2nd, 3rd and 4th generation blacks who came up from the South with the yoke of bigotry and oppression they received down there.
When they got up North they didn't get that much white oppression that controlled them so much down South.
They in fact felt empowered by living in mostly black communities and later ghettos to STRIKE back at White People with an impudence that would have gotten them tree'd back down South.
So to this day they let their anger at "whitey" fester and never heal... Just another form of "slavery" voluntarily self-imposed and every bit as devastating as the original!

Blacks have ruined Chicago and most major and minor cities in which they have any significant presence.
No Black Pride and plenty of self-destructive habits with a significant anger towards whites that reinforces their "loser" attitudes at their personal situations and lifestyles.

The White Man is holdin' me down! hand-slap hand-slap hand-slap!
No he ain't! Try Lazy, unmotivated, uneducated before you start blaming somebody else.

A person may be poor but he does not have to be poor in spirit.
The American Dream works. 99% perspiration 1% inspiration will get the job done.

When the heck are they going to start contributing to these cities and America?
