Oh, it's something, if this is what he exposes he family too and this is the kind of trash he listens to and endorses with his $22,500 donations in 2006 ... this will not be so easily sweep under the carpet except in the MSM. I feel it shows he has very poor judgment with this and many more things that have come to light.

No. You Hillary worshippers will drop it once you've destroyed him.

It's obvious what this is all about. Wright has preached for how many years? And suddenly when Hillary is losing to Obama, Wright's sermons are an issue?

I'm sure this information was revived by the Clinton campaign.
That said, Wrights views are disgusting ---- I mean did you see him simulate oral sex ON THE PULPIT?!! The man is a promoter, and what he is promoting is hatred, division, and himself. I don't care who brought it to light, wrong is wrong.

But what this really is -- Hillary is in danger of losing to Obama so they're going to try to get him anyway they can. Geraldine Ferraro, long time political feminist had to step out of Hillary's campaign in shame from her racist remarks. Now the Clintons are angry and they're going to destroy Obama.
this was aired by ABC abd FOX NEWS!
don't blame someone else for what Obama chose himself
if he did not go to this place for 20 years and have this creep for his mentor/pastor
none of this would be going on
one day Mr. Obam will have to suck it up and get real!

I don't live in the Chicago area. Even if I were, I am an atheist and Chinese, I would not have been privy to Wright's sermons. It's just too bad that the rest of our country wasn't aware of Wright's crazy sermons until now. If anything, it's proof that Hillary's campaign doesn't have people devoted to digging up dirt on Obama.

Had I known about these Wright sermons earlier, I would be just as disturbed.

And it also makes me question Obama as a parent. Why would he even expose his children to this verbal garbage?

It's also disappointing to me that in a city as diverse as Chicago is, Obama and his family have been exclusively attending a church that was so black in agenda and not find a church that was more evenly mixed with all races and cultures. Again, it makes me feel that Obama has a hidden black agenda.

So why weren't they? If Wright is such a dangerous man, then why wasn't something done about him when Bill Clinton was president?

And would you deny that either Clinton would have happily accepted an invitation by Wright to use his church for a photo-op to get black votes?

Now -- what about Al Sharpton. Certainly he was known for making statements that some whites didn't like but did Bill Clinton ever sever himself from his support when it came to using him to get votes?

This is their primary intention to destroy him emotionally, spiritually, and mentally. He has had to endure a tremendous amount of emotional attacks this week, based on his affiliation with a church who has a pastor who may or may not be leading his sheep astray. It is not for me to administer the punishment if he is doing this, because there is someone greater than myself who will ensure that punishment be carried out. I have attended numerous churches where I have mainly appreciated the word spoken, but I too have found fault at some statements mentioned as well. I study to show thyself approved. The preacher is usually the one who will say something that will make you question the validity or interpretation of a bible passage, and as the sheep we are instructed to study for thyself and question what has been mentioned if we feel the need to. This is debate of the word spoken and Obama has mentioned that he has embraced most of what has been spoken by his pastor, but there are many beliefs or ideologies that he disputes or finds to be inaccurate. Does this mean that we should throughly examine every sermon a Preacher/Pastor/Priest has presented to their congregations to determine if they have presented more knowledge that has led their sheep astray or kept them within the fold? Who will set the criteria for determining if a preacher/pastor/priest is one that is perfect and without sin?

I am hoping that their malice acts of injustice will eventually have Obama quit the campaign and start an organization that speaks to his purpose of change for people who no longer want to participate in the ills of racial intolerance and injustice because this is blatantly the attack of his skin color.

He definitely has a calling on his life and he will be elevated to his position of honor again in due time, but most likely for something that is greater than the presidency of the United States. Who said you would be considered great if you are a president? Many have, but not all. This country and it's many racist people will never be ready for a black man to be the President of the United States of America.

By the way what church does McCain and Hillary belong to and how are they spiritually fed? What is the name of their pastor/preacher/priest? How long have they attended or been a member of a congregation? What activities have they participated in while attending church? How much money have they donated to a church? Have any of their spiritual leaders over the last 20 years had their sermons fully examined?

With all due respect, the vile coming out of Rev Wrights mouth had nothing to do with religion, unless it was the religion of hatred and fear.
Where in the bible does it talk of rich white Europeans being the bane of existence to all people of color everywhere for all time?
This is the problem people have with Rev Wright and Sen Obamas de facto acceptance of Wrights message.
Please, do not insult anyones intelligence by pretending this is about a difference of interpretation of a bible passage. This is about fear and hate mongering. Have you seen the videos? The amount of vitriol was horrifying. And so completely at odds with what I thought was Sen Obamas message.
After all, would you feel welcome in a house that called you a member of the KKK? Would you embrace a message that defiled you?
Criticism and discussion of our countrys past is a good thing. Assigning blame to innocent people for acts commited by long dead people is wrong. And a sin, in my bible.

The ongoing sin of racial intolerance and injustice is not dead and these behaviors have not miraculously vanished from the human condition of man. They are so active and alive right now they could possibly resurrect some of their supporters from the dead (LOL)
