angry racist rant! He just endorsed Obama. I am beginning to wonder, Just how transending is Obama?



Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) "has been linked to another controversial pastor, this time a declared spiritual adviser who has called white American mayors 'slave masters,' and referred to black preachers and politicians who 'protect' the 'white man' as 'house n-ggers'," Aaron Klein wrote March 23, 2008, for WorldNetDaily.

Meeks is pastor of Chicago's 20,000-member Salem Baptist Church; an Illinois Senator and superdelegate "pledged to Obama"; "has served as an executive vice president for Jesse Jackson's Rainbow/PUSH organization"; and "has reportedly campaigned for Obama and allowed Obama to campaign at his church" in May 2006, as well as "during the presidential candidate's 2004 senatorial run". A "recent Meeks endorsement of Obama is touted on the presidential candidate's campaign website," Klein wrote.

In an August 2006 sermon originally broadcast on "a Chicago community television channel," that was broadcast March 20, 2008, by Fox News Channel's Hannity and Colmes," the Rev. Meeks said "We don't have slave masters, we got mayors."

Continued Meeks in the sermon: "But they are still the same white people who are presiding over systems where black people are not able to be educated. You got some preachers that are house n-ggers. You got some elected officials that are house n-ggers. Rather than them try and break this up, they're gonna fight you to protect that white man."

Meeks at the time was lashing out at Chicago Mayor Richard M. Daley over public-school funding issues.

With regard to his use of foul language, Meeks stated: "The N-word is not in the African-American community a bad word. It's a term of endearment. And I don't see it as derogatory or defensive, offensive."

According to reports, shortly after his 2006 tirade, Meeks endorsed a Rainbow/PUSH call for blacks to stop using the N-word.



What...is going on?

2. It badly needs context.
And I'm a Hillary supporter, by the way.

I'd prefer to leave the "Gotcha!"s to TODU (Team Obama at DU) -- and the Press.

Is Sean Hannity personally scouring every black church in America for any race-baiting material that he cause use on his show?

Shameful.

5. What's going on? So many people are scared shitless of a black President they'll push any button...
...to make sure it doesn't happen.

Race baiting pure and simple.

Find some issues to debate - or is that too complicated for you?

Just that you're about to come all over yourself because you have "Breaking!" news that you think will damage Obama.

30. because your head is up...
Here is something to think about...

1) Viewing the anti-American and anti-white videos during sermons from Pastor Jeremiah Wright… Shocking!
2) Discovering that some actually try to defend this hateful speech… Embarrassing!

3)Learning that Senator Obama voluntarily subjected himself and his family to this pastor for 20 years… Disturbing.

4)Voters willingness to vote for a presidential candidate who has been influenced by this hate speech… Dwindling.

5)Supporters of Obama are shrinking in number with each video clip that is viewed.

So,I WILL KEEP POSTING TRUTH..even IF you don't like or agree.

38. You offered us 5 things "to think about". yet not one issue.
:shrug:

aside from the personal issues you have with Obama supporters, can you site any political issues you disagree on with the candidate himself?

let us ALL raise the level of debate, please.

8. I hate how DU has become so vicious .....
Posts like this are SO ridiculous .... Cmon .....

IS it your contention that Obama has embraced the philosophy of this man ? .... or that he merely walked through his church, looking for votes ?

What is going on ? .... HERE at DU: VERY vicious candidate partisans are willing to make any lame ass negative association to the opposing candidate, no matter how piddly and tenuous the connection, no matter how fallacious and absurd the claim ....

Signed,
DEMOCRAT supporter of Obama and Hillary

43. Since when does RIGHTEOUS ANGER disqualify someone from being a Super Delegate?
Edited on Mon Mar-24-08 01:23 PM by Krashkopf
My guess is that Pastor Meeks speaks for most of his constituents.

Isn't that what DEMOCRACY, and being a DEMOCRAT, is all about?

You Clinton folks are really starting to show your REPUBLICAN sides.

It's about getting a Democratic president in the Whitehouse. If you can't say something positive about your own candidate then you help nobody but the Republicans.

36. This has nothin' to do with Obama.
and..again...it is tough to see *ME* making defenses for this man. Rev. Wright is credited with bringing Obama to Christianity, and was his spiritual mentor for TWENTY YEARS. His bigoted comments should garner ire. Some other racist extremist endorsing him has nothing to do with the other.

For real.

42. Gosh . . . there's a "shocker!"
Edited on Mon Mar-24-08 12:52 PM by Krashkopf
Some black people are ANGRY about the way they have been abused, and continue to be abused, by the American - read "WHITE" - power structure. (Can you BLAME them?)

Here's even MORE of a surprise . . . some of those ANGRY black people SUPPORT Barack Obama - a black man - for President!!

"I'm SHOCKED, SHOCKED!"

Unless, and until, you find some video footage of BARACK OBAMA giving these types of angry speeches, posting clips like this are NOTHING MORE than UGLY, PRO-CLINTON, RACE BAITING!

Shame on YOU, and SHAME ON THE CLINTON CAMPAIGN, for using GUILT BY ASSOCIATION - and a very very weak association, at that - to fan the flames of FEAR AND HATE.

It is disgusting how LOW the Clinton campaign, and her supporters, will stoop to win this nomination.

Another Angry Black Man - Stereotype

Let's scare all the white people...

How many angry black men..can we put on tv today!!!

Maybe the Hillary campaign could begin polling the prisons for endorsements of Barack...

Then the news story could be 90% of black men in prison endorsing Barack Obama...
