They either don't want to know the truth, or they know the truth and are trying hard to keep it hidden from as many as possible.

Darkness is the absence of light. They are in the dark. When light shines, it obliterates the darkness. The liberals are like bugs, scurrying for the cracks. They can't stand light.

I do wonder, though, why people who speak out against inequality and/or for better working conditions, etc. are so threatening to you.
Huh?? What on earth are you talking about? Do you think that is the issue here? Do you think that is what Jeremiah Wright is concerned with?

I Meant Alinsky.

My Bad.

So, once again, you don't know why Alinsky was a radical; someone told he was and that's good enough for you. You're consistent.

Beck also displays roy's consistency. Or vice-versa.

He is an arrogant, self rightious man, that sees himself as someone that can do no wrong, this will get you in trouble.
If he were such a smart man, as some say, the change he has brought to this Country, would have been a thriving, booming, economy, that he said he would bring us, on the contrary, people are in dire=straits because of his change, lost homes, lost jobs, and to date, because of Obama i now know a total of 18 people who have lost jobs thruout this Country, half their homes, Great change isn't it!
He has apologized one too many times for the US.

A good man, is one who can accept errors on his behalf, a good man, would not point fingers at others, for his own, misjudgement, a good man can accept others poking fun at him, as he does to others, without him making a federal case of it. But it appears, when he does things it is fine and funny and acceptable, notice this anyone does the same damn things that he does to them, it becomes a federal case.
You and people like you tend to forget that Obama was elected into this mess with the economy, housing, jobs and government spending.

BUSH GOT US INTO A NEEDLESS WAR, SPENT BILLIONS OF DOLLARS ON IT AND THEN HAD BLINDERS ON (FROM FOCUSING JUST ON WAR) SO HE DIDN'T SEE THE ECONOMY TANKING, THE HOUSING FIASCO OR JOBS BEING LOST.

I wish people had a longer attention span and could really comprehend what was/is going on in this country.

Well, you don't want to be sure about that, just about Alinsky. Was he a commie?

If you are asking me do I think that Rev. Wright was concerned about inequality and righting past wrongs, then, yes, I do.
What do you think he is/was concerned with?

I know, I know - you think he was laying the groundwork for an uprising, sort of like 'Mandingo', right?

So, when is it going to happen? I mean, the president has been in office for going on four years. I know he's busy and all, but, surely if he's been as well-brainwashed as you believe he has, wouldn't this have been one of his first priorities?

What is he waiting for?

Have you read it, or any of his work?
