Why Obama’s Pastor’s comments aren’t racist or anti-American
Posted by Media Outrage on March 21, 2008
We have sat back and watched as the media has painted Barack Obama’s former Pastor Jeremiah Wright as a racist and anti American. We can’t hold our peace anymore. Foxnews’ Bill O’Reilly aired the clips and labeled Rev. Wright a racist and anti American for what??? Telling the truth. Let’s just keep it all the way 100. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was labeled anti American during his fight for civil rights, basic rights that every human is born with. The media labeled Malcolm X as militant and racist because he spoke against the hypocrisy of the United States of America, how they could be fighting a war in Vietnam for freedom and justice when black people in America weren’t even free and were still being Lynched at alarming rates. So let’s jump into the discussion at hand regarding Rev. Jeremiah Wrights alleged incendiary comments (Folk crack us up with these words).
In the video of clips that Foxnews put together themselves of Rev. Wrights comments from different sermons of which they have still yet to release in completion, he calls the USA the US of KKKA. Now in this great country of ours Nathan Bedford started the KKK somewhere we believe in the 1800’s as a way to deter blacks from voting. They terrorized blacks by beating, killing, raping, burning, and hanging (Lynching) them by the thousands and the Government never blinked an eye or attempted to disband this terroristic homeland group of animals. The Black Panthers appeared somewhere in the late 60s or early 70’s and encouraged black people to pursue education and better themselves, and the Government immediately broke them up. So is Rev. Jeremiah Wright wrong when referring to America by the moniker that they themselves earned??? People hate truth.
Rev. Wright said “The stuff we have done over seas is now brought right back into our own front yards. America’s chicken’s are now coming home to roost.” Ok many believe the he is referring to the thousands of Americans that perished in the cowardly attacks of 9/11. If you believe in the bible and GOD then you also believe in the spiritual law of ‘reaping what you sow‘ which just means that you get back what you put out. America has for sure murdered innocent people in many different countries. One instance that comes to mind is a few years ago when the CIA supposedly got wind of intelligence that said Al-Quaida 2nd in charge Al Zaquari would be eating dinner at a residence in Afghanistan and we dropped missiles and bombs blowing up the house and killing innocent women and children and missing our target who was not even there. When Afghanistan citizens produced public outcry our only response from Condoleezza Rice was “they were casualties of war“. To their citizens this callous non remorseful response definitely had American Terrorism written all over it. One country’s freedom rider is another country’s terrorist. Not our words it’s a famous quote. Rev. Wright said that there were no weapons of mass destruction in Iraq and there weren’t, we still haven’t found anything not even a whiffle bat as Chris Rock so eloquently put it. We all know the invasion was about personal revenge and oil.
So once again how does telling nothing but the truth make you an anti-American racist??? The strongest point we would like to make is this. Adolf Hitler was responsible for the murder of over 6million Jews it is reported, and he is labeled as a diabolical person as he should be. America’s 1st and most beloved President George Washington owned slaves, participated in the inhumane institution thereof along with Thomas Jefferson, and many other beloved American Presidents, but not one of these men are portrayed as evil and why is that??? Slavery was responsible for the death of way more Africans than Hitler was of Jews. So why are our leaders painted as super heroes????????? We know one word HYPOCRISY. But once again people can’t stomach too many doses of truth. Jeremiah Wright can love America with it’s many flaws and still condemn their wrong actions and practices without being an anti patriot.
We don’t agree with everything he said in the videos, but so what, that is his opinion, and perception. Foxnews’ Sean Hannity, Bill O’Reilly, and countless other white members of the media cannot understand the point of view Rev. Wright holds because they haven’t experienced the harsh racism and hatred that black men have, so it is very easy to turn and twist what he is saying as him spewing hatred when he is not doing that. He is speaking from the perception of a black man. It seems when black people bring up America’s dirty past the media spins it as preaching division and hatred. Why is that? These disgusting things happened here on this soil of the land of liberty. This is fact so why attempt to paint America as a land devoid of flaws? No address them and embrace what America has evolved into. All Rev. Jeremiah Wright was doing was addressing the many flaws.

HYPOCRISY is right. What happened to freedom of speech? I may not agree with everything he says or heck everything my own mama says but the fact is he has a right to his opinion. Now what trips me out is that none of this would even be a problem if one Mr. Obama wasn’t black and two if he weren’t running for president. Come on now. Let’s be honest about this thing….Rev. Wright said in one of his sermons that Hilary Clinton has never been called a “nigger”. That is probably fact. She has not had to suffer the indecencies of white people because she was another race. She has been chased, spat at, threatened, rapped, profiled….need I go on. Not to mention that I’m sure being the age Mr. Obama is he had to hear his mother, a white woman probably at some time being called a nigger lover.
Now on to this insufferable war, you got a war going on in our own country with this crime and they over there spending billions of dollars on what?? Not to mention that the report came back that Al Queda and Saddam Hussein’s Iraq were not linked. So what in the world are we doing? We are literally running in circles chasing our own tail.
I could go on, but I won’t. OBAMA ‘08

As far as I can tell, Chris Rock is right. How long until I have to tell people, hey were serfs again. What is happening is what happened to me, if you speak too much, the rich ignore the laws no matter where you are, they find judges like Judge Ido that take bribes and lie in court and then force you to comply no matter what. At least that is much more common. He does have some points for a black church, but Bill O’ Reily isn’t completely wrong in this case either. He did say some racist things that did make the news that have nothing to do with the Bible or how most of the white community today views black or ethnic peoples. I know it varies area to area.
Obama and the country, and even the average American umber writer like me, have bigger problems than worrying aboug bigotry in chruchs and places of worship, unless they are truly connected to something it shouldn’t be a publio issue.
