The REAL reason Rev Wright hit the big time.
Edited on Thu Mar-20-08 04:23 PM by Rosemary2205
We are supposed to believe the tape went viral because they want us to question Obama's patriotism.

BULLSHIT.

The tape went viral for one reason and one reason only. Because far too many whites in this country are instinctively turned off by any physically and verbally animated brown person. Show any good black preacher up there in the middle of a heated sermon and a very large percentage of whites will quickly change the channel. The message being given is totally immaterial to the discussion.

The tape went viral because they want whites in America to mentally link the almost emotionaless Obama to those out of control scary black men who flap their arms, scream and yell, spit into the microphone and will probably carjack you and rape yer wimmin.

1. Scaredy cats - they don't know what they're missing...
I love a good old fashioned Southern tent revival!

4. Maybe that's true. But could we stop posting about Rev. Wright please?
You're not helping.

7. Actually
My post is not really about Rev. Wright - he is but the latest catylist. It's about how politicans and the MSM are using the ingrained racism in America to control the populace. Keep us aware of our differences and we are less likely to stand up as a whole hold them accountable -- making it much easier to keep as much wealth and privilege as possible with the world's elite.

10. You'll likely be waiting another 1000 years at least.
as far as black/white - I predict that will solve itself when there is finally enough intermarriage so that there are more mixed race people than black or white. But by then there will be a new "minority" for the elite to exploit.

Maybe they will figure out how to make all the world's problems the fault of blond haired women...... who knows.

11. Some were even sexually aroused
by the movements of a 75 year old man preaching in the pulpit.

12. Exactly
Rev. Wright has said nothing, and I mean absolutely nothing that we have not heard before from some of our other heroes here on the left.

"The list of the states that have joined the coalition against terror is quite impressive. They have a characteristic in common. They are certainly among the leading terrorist states in the world. And they happen to be led by the world champion." - Noam Chomsky

"This President is never gonna do the right thing. I think somewhere deep down inside him he takes a lot of joy about losing people, if he thinks they vote Democrat or if he thinks they're poor, or if he thinks they're in a blue state, whatever his reasons are not to rescue those people." - Randi Rhodes

America is a terrorist state! The government wants to kill poor people and democrats! ...But that's okay, because, hey... They're white.

The only case people here have against Jeremiah Wright is that, to use a term still in use in many parts of Mississippi, he was "uppity." Speaking above his proper station. Accusations and invective are great coming from a white writer, or a white radio show host, but put it in the mouth of a black preacher, and woah, hit the brakes!
