You just have to love the anti-colonialism assertion! Are there a lot of Americans who are pro-colonialism?

OMG, is he lauding Capitalism???
Oh I agree. Obamas words mean nothing to me or to the world, remember the red line, of course Putin had to bail him out? In fact if he says it I believe the opposite.

Blatantly false, by Rev. Wright's own admission:

From you link, as I have pointed out previously this is not an accurate quote.
A few more quotes from Cone...

"To be black is to be committed to destroying everything this country loves and adores."
"Black theology will accept only a love of God which participates in the destruction of the white enemy."

So Rev. Wright and Trinity UCC demonstrated their blanket hatred of whites, desire to separate from whites and their goal of destroy whites by remaining in the 90%+ white UCC for 50 years, actively participating at the regional and denomination level and voluntarily donating hundreds of thousands of dollars to the activities of the white dominated denomination.

I'm not the one with blinders on.

yet you were able to recite two long standing birther myths verbatim ( that his records are "sealed" and that his name was changed from "barry soetoro" ).

that takes talent.

Proof that any of the bolded text ever happened?

Would also appreciate any proof you can summon that the UCC supports Cone's racist rhetoric. You know, the same Cone racist rhetoric on which Rev. Wright himself specifically states Trinity UCC is BASED on.

Yeah and if the insurance companies weren't going to cancel those plans anyway you would have kept them.

See the insurance companies are the ones playing you for a fool. Those plans were crap and would never have done anything for you anyway and the moment you tried to use them they would have cancelled them as people often found out. Hence when the ACA was implemented the insurance companies cancelled the plans wholesale instead of when people tried to use them as was previously done.

Putin didn't have to bail out Obama. It was Obama that bailed out the Russians and Chinese because the Russians and Chinese were the ones that were looking like they were supporting a Middle Eastern Hitler and getting the rest of the world enraged at the Russians and Chinese while Obama offered a way out namely for Syria to get rid of chemical weapon stockpiles. The Russians and Chinese told the Syrians to agree to that otherwise the Russians and Chinese would have to agree to a UN invasion of Syria which would have made the Russians lose their only port outside of Russia and the Chinese lose big in the middle east.

As a child in Indonesia, Obama was called "Barry", sometimes Barry Soetoro, reflecting his step-father's surname, and sometimes Barry Obama, using his own surname. Sounds like Obama didn't even know what to call himself.
