New Obama Pastor Charges Rev. Wright Victim Of "LYNCHING"- Obamas speech fuled it !!
Edited on Sun Mar-23-08 02:49 PM by chocome
---------------------
The new pastor of Barack Obama’s church delivered a defiant defense of its retiring reverend Sunday, comparing media coverage of Rev. Jeremiah Wright Jr. to a modern-day lynching that resembles Jesus’ death at the hands of the Romans.

In a sunrise Easter sermon, Rev. Otis Moss III never mentioned Wright by name, but implied that his mentor, who has delivered sermons in which he likened the U.S. to the Ku Klux Klan and declared it damned for its “state-sponsored terrorism,” is facing the same challenges Jesus did.”No one should start a ministry with lynching, no one should end their ministry with lynching,” Moss said.

Obama is sure sinking on this one..

That's why I'm not worried at all. :hi:

3. If it's over for Obama, our party is dead -- you should be worried.
McCain will win.

Then again, maybe that's the whole idea.

6. McCain will only win if Obama is the nominee
Now THAT would make me worry.

29. Clinton can't win fairly -- and every day she delays the real nominee from working
... she's helping McCain win.

Do you really believe in Democratic principles by bully force? That is all Hillary has now to win.

Hillary will have endorsed him and this nomination fight will be over for him.

9. Oh I don't think she would do that.
Please try to see past your hatred of Hillary. She's really not as bad as she is portrayed here on DU.

12. What does my "hatred" (as you say) of Hillary have to do with anything?
I'm simply agreeing that it will all be over in June.

If he wins the nomination then it will be in November. The swift boaters will see to that.

4. The lynching was national news
The lynching was national news. The RNN, the Roman News Network, was reporting it and NPR, National Publican Radio had it on the radio. The Jerusalem Post and the Palestine Times all wanted exclusives, they searched out the young ministers, showed up unannounced at their houses, tried to talk with their families, called up their friends, wanted to get a quote on how do you feel about the lynching?” he continued.

28. Some people have their keyboards set up...
for other letters and symbols. Or the program here makes mincemeat of the typing from the poster's word processor.

17. An attack on this man of God is an attack on all those of the cloth who believe in the social Gospel
“Dr. Wright represents the best among us … An attack on this man of God is an attack on all those of the cloth who believe in the social Gospel of liberation. And I will not stand for it,” he wrote.

Edited on Sun Mar-23-08 02:56 PM by CakeGrrl
in their excitement to make that not-so-intuitive leap.

Maybe Obama has planted a 'ricochet' in Sean Hannity's brain that might finally make it explode, woo hoo!

14. ***SIGH*** Problem with your Fox Noise smear is that we watched the program live.
Here:

Does it make you feel good to post attempted smears and slander?

22. Yep. And I love how Fox admits, "even though he never mentioned Wright by name..."
..."and we clearly have NO evidence to support our obvious bias..."

If anything that sermon was geared towards the church community. Their community is currently being attacked and Moss was assuring them that, together, they would get through this.

I found it to be an extremely touching service.

The irony is that all these attackers are going to be so far in Trinity's lap, they are going to fool around and get saved!

19. Rev. Otis Moss III Quote *** In order to crucify him you’ve got to lift him up***
He concluded with another analogy, saying, “In order to crucify him you’ve got to lift him up … he had more visibility on the cross than he did during his entire ministry

27. Yes, because they are a strong church community that cannot be broken.
How did your friends at FoxNews tell you to interpret that? A call to violence?

33. Was Jesus or was Jesus not lynched in public?
Why don't you try listening to the sermon before you criticize it?

I listened to it in its entirety and I can tell you that the way you are trying to spin this is absolutely wrong.

Perhaps you would have better success back at Free Republic?

45. No one is swiftboating HRC on Bosnia
In fact, it is stunning that you say that. The SBVT lied that Kerry was NOT under sniper fire - when he very obviously was. By the news accounts of the day, the First Lady was NOWHERE near sniper fire - it would have been enormous news had she and Chelsea faced that - they didn't. (HRC supporters who think she did are like W supporters who spoke of the dangers W faced in TANG.)

Are you going to demand that HRC be given a medal?
