Obama's Pastor: God Damn America, U.S. to Blame for 9/11
Obama's Pastor, Rev. Jeremiah Wright, Has a History of What Even Obama's Campaign Aides Say Is 'Inflammatory Rhetoric'

Sen. Barack Obama's pastor says blacks should not sing ';God Bless America'; but ';God damn America.';
The Rev. Jeremiah Wright, Obama's pastor for the last 20 years at the Trinity United Church of Christ on Chicago's south side, has a long history of what even Obama's campaign aides concede is ';inflammatory rhetoric,'; including the assertion that the United States brought on the 9/11 attacks with its own ';terrorism.';
In a campaign appearance earlier this month, Sen. Obama said, ';I don't think my church is actually particularly controversial.'; He said Rev. Wright ';is like an old uncle who says things I don't always agree with,'; telling a Jewish group that everyone has someone like that in their family.
Rev. Wright married Obama and his wife Michelle, baptized their two daughters and is credited by Obama for the title of his book, ';The Audacity of Hope.';
An ABC News review of dozens of Rev. Wright's sermons, offered for sale by the church, found repeated denunciations of the U.S. based on what he described as his reading of the Gospels and the treatment of black Americans.
';The government gives them the drugs, builds bigger prisons, passes a three-strike law and then wants us to sing 'God Bless America.' No, no, no, God damn America, that's in the Bible for killing innocent people,'; he said in a 2003 sermon. ';God damn America for treating our citizens as less than human. God damn America for as long as she acts like she is God and she is supreme.';
In addition to damning America, he told his congregation on the Sunday after Sept. 11, 2001 that the United States had brought on al Qaeda's attacks because of its own terrorism.
';We bombed Hiroshima, we bombed Nagasaki, and we nuked far more than the thousands in New York and the Pentagon, and we never batted an eye,'; Rev. Wright said in a sermon on Sept. 16, 2001.
';We have supported state terrorism against the Palestinians and black South Africans, and now we are indignant because the stuff we have done overseas is now brought right back to our own front yards. America's chickens are coming home to roost,'; he told his congregation.
Sen. Obama told the New York Times he was not at the church on the day of Rev. Wright's 9/11 sermon. ';The violence of 9/11 was inexcusable and without justification,'; Obama said in a recent interview. ';It sounds like he was trying to be provocative,'; Obama told the paper.
Rev. Wright, who announced his retirement last month, has built a large and loyal following at his church with his mesmerizing sermons, mixing traditional spiritual content and his views on contemporary issues.
';I wouldn't call it radical. I call it being black in America,'; said one congregation member outside the church last Sunday.
';He has impacted the life of Barack Obama so much so that he wants to portray that feeling he got from Rev. Wright onto the country because we all need something positive,'; said another member of the congregation.
Rev. Wright, who declined to be interviewed by ABC News, is considered one of the country's 10 most influential black pastors, according to members of the Obama campaign.
Obama has praised at least one aspect of Rev. Wright's approach, referring to his ';social gospel'; and his focus on Africa, ';and I agree with him on that.';
Sen. Obama declined to comment on Rev. Wright's denunciations of the United States, but a campaign religious adviser, Shaun Casey, appearing on ';Good Morning America'; Thursday, said Obama ';had repudiated'; those comments.
In a statement to ABCNews.com, Obama's press spokesman Bill Burton said, ';Sen. Obama has said repeatedly that personal attacks such as this have no place in this campaign or our politics, whether they're offered from a platform at a rally or the pulpit of a church. Sen. Obama does not think of the pastor of his church in political terms. Like a member of his family, there are things he says with which Sen. Obama deeply disagrees. But now that he is retired, that doesn't detract from Sen. Obama's affection for Rev. Wright or his appreciation for the good works he has done.';

Copyright 漏 2008 ABC News Internet VenturesWhy Barack Hussein Obama did not denounce his 20-years pastor Wright for anti-American racist rants? Why?
He didn't denounce him because he belives what he is saying - why else would you stay in that church for 20 years and bring your children to such a hate filled placeWhy Barack Hussein Obama did not denounce his 20-years pastor Wright for anti-American racist rants? Why?
Of course he believes what his pastor says. No one would stay in a church that racists unless they did. I would leave my church the first time my pastor made any of the hateful things that Obama's pastor has made. I would also leave the church if my pastor gave an award to some one like Louis Farrakhan or a white equivalent.

The growing consensus is that the Rev. Wright is more than Barack's spiritual mentor. Jeremiah Wright became the father figure that Barack needed and that was lacking in Barack's upbringing.
The real concern is that Barack has at some levels been indoctrinated by the hateful and divisive rants of J. Wright, a man Barack much admires and looks up to, and as such will have a dangerous bias against a majority of Americans and the U.S. Constitution.
Barack's stunt yesterday, of giving a speech in Philadelphia with eight U.S. flags as a backdrop, may indicate just how disingenuous he really is.
That Louis Farrakhan of the Nation of Islam make an unprecedented endorsement of a potential POTUS candidate, Barack Hussein Obama, is also an indication of concern.
Both of the above associations are being widely reported and analyzed by the MSM, and not just right wing organizations, as you well know.
Barack Hussein Obama is not the right stuff, nor ever will be.
Barack Hussein Obama and his wife follows the views of The Rev. Jeremiah Wright,
You have to first understand where Rev. Wright is coming from, the man has experienced more than you and everyone responding to your question put together, He was a black man who grew up in the 60's, was a marine and a navy man to say the least... black preachers will tell it like it is regardless of what people think, I can see how it can come accross as hateful and hostile to many, but if you really want to break down he's message, you must listen to the entire sermon and not just a small portion of what the media wants you hear. Rev. Wright will say what many black people of he's time don't have the courage to say, regardless of how he's words are interpreted. Some will love you for it and some will hate you, that's just the way it is.
Barack has already said he wasn't present during those sermons and that he denounces what rev. wright said. What more do you want? I don't believe Rev. Wright hates america, I do believe he's message came from a lot of pain and from getting caught in the moment. I'm not voting for Rev. Wright... I'm voting for Sen. Barack Obama because of who he is and because of what I believe he stands for, should Barack lose this election, we're all going to miss out on a very special leader. Don't let the media brain wash you, they couldn't find dirt on him so they decided to find it on people around him, like it aint hard enough being black, now you gotta make sure people around you are squeaky clean? give me a break! I also denounce that particular message from Rev. Wright, but I refuse to let the media influence my opinions of the man. Many will hate because they can't relate... Vote for Obama in '08.
Because he knows all to well that if he does denounce, then folks like you are going to be like a diaper with him, and yell about how ';Anti-Christian'; Obama is.
Rev. Wright is what Rush Limbaugh would could a ';race hustler.'; Though I don't share the same politics as Limbaugh for the most part, there's no question that he's right about Wright. In addition, Wright is a hypocrite--on a grand scale. Here he is, attacking America, white people, and even blacks who don't share his viewpoints, but he is living quite comfortably and with much more than mere middle-class wealth, I'm sure......right here, in America. Something he couldn't possibly do anywhere else. Would he move to any of the countries that he claims to care about? Not a chance!
Wright is a phony and he uses Christianity as a mask---which is a hypocrisy of a particularly odious sort.
Did Obama think that his love fest with the media would prevent Rev. Wright from reaching the mainstream public? Then, Obama's judgment is truly suspect. Did Obama think that he could pretend that he did not know what Wright stood for? Did he think that he could just claim that he loved Wright very much as a person but he didn't agree with some of his radical views?
Imagine someone saying back when Adolph Hitler was alive, the following.......... ';Sure I disagree with Hitler, and I don't feel that Jews should have all their rights taken away and then be killed.... but, Hitler is still a very nice guy, and he was even best man at my wedding, and I like his style.... but that doesn't mean that I agree with all of his views.... I abhor his views in many cases, but I just wouldn't want to cut off my friendship with him just because of that.';
See what I mean?
OBama has clearly repudiated the Reverend Wright's Statement. To try and Spin it as if he hasn't! is demagogic!
I don't like troublemakers stirring the racist pots no matter who or where they are! This Q was designed to do just that! It seems to have drawn some maggots!
The link to the demagogic video was low!
I'm a white conservative, and I was going to vote for Obama in November, and it was b/c Obama claimed to reach out to all people.
This is too much, though. It's egregious to hear Wright's words, and to know that Obama put up with this racist talk for 20 years is too much. Barack should've left, and he didn't. It shows he is not as intelligent as he claims to be.
Obama, went to that church for over 20 years, he has given over $20,000 dollars to the church,.....he can try to denounce the church, but how does he explain going to the church for over 20 years,.....he agrees with the message, if he did not he would have left the church many years ago,.....in Obamas book, Obama says this preacher is his mentor, Obama has stepped in it,.....there is not a lot he can do to distance himself from this anti-American raciest preacher,.....
The only one that could answer this question is Mr Ohbomber again.
possibly it is 'black African Afro before American loyalty';
The Jesus of the Bible teaches love for all mankind, to hate sin but love the sinner. The blacks I know at Churches I have attended love America and mankind. Yet, there is another kind that rejects the teachings and salvation of the Jesus of the Bible and preach their hatred of what Jesus teaches.
I think that black 'African loyalty' may be the key. If your black your right and give millions to defend the OJ, Michael Jackson, Al Sharpton %26amp; his Tawana Brawley against the white man.
These biggots blame the majority of innocent even in history of white Americans= of whom 80% immigrated here after the civil war in European immigration. And half of the small minority that was in America before that, fought and risked and many gave their lives to set their brothers free.
Yet compared to Hillery Clintons open thievery in Whitewater where she and bill 'invested $300' in Arkansaw and made hundreds of thousands off of it, while her co-conspiritors went to prison he is a far better candidate.
Hillery's chosing a husband and pity him as a father, who is a compusive liar, open adulterer, because of their 'open' marriage would stand by him regardless of what he does. As the liberals say 'It doesnt matter what you do in your private life (even inside the governors mansion of Arkansaw or the White house, as long as... (I forget the rest, but does it really matter???)
May the false teachers of a hating, cheating lying jesus' be defeated
and the Jesus of the Bible save America, II Chronicals 7:14 If my people which are called by my name will humble themselves and pray, then will I hear from heaven and forgive their sins and heal their land.';
David in John chapters 3 %26amp;10 repented of sin and let Jesus in to help, and be my best friend. amen %26amp; Revelation 3:19%26amp;20.

He obviously did not attach any importance to what his mentor was saying.
He didn't think anyone would notice.
He is just plain stupid in areas where a commander-in-chief should be smart.
He loves himself too much to think that he might be wrong.
