Someone needs to put a BULLET in REV Wright>>>>>>!!

[King Gideon]

you are missing the point, either that or you are a Clinton supporter or you have lost the right to vote due to a crimminal record and have no idea of what you are speaking. Tell me which one are you?

100% Obama supporter, and I've never been arrested. And I got your point. I just think it's extremely shortsighted. Do you have any other options of what I MUST be????

Look, both men do very important work and are very necessary to "the struggle". But they have to separate and diverge in order to stay true to their missions. Wright can't have the media constantly defining the truth he speaks as bullshit hate speech.

And Barack can't be prez unless whites who don't think like we do (about race in america) feel comfortable enough to vote for him. And they can't do that unless Obama distances himself. They are at a point where there missions diverge, so Barack needs to distance himself. It's politics, bruh.

Besides, be real, if you heard rev. wright and he had nothing to do with Barack you'd be loving everything he said.

P.S. fuck the Clinton's I've lost all respect for them.

Bruh, no diss, but you just explained yourself to a dude who is an obvious stalker and nutcase that had the nerve to accuse you of either being a Hillary supporter or an ex-con simply because you don't advocate KILLING another black man (an elder at that), not because he lied, but because he told a TRUTH that some white folks did not like hearing. The shit these cats are talking is some next level shit. Cats like these would have booted Lee Harvey Oswald out of the Bushes so THEY could take the shot.

I support Obama too, but I don't have some sort of man-crush on the dude.

None of my business, but next time just tell dude to "Eat a dick" and keep it moving.

As far as I'm aware, Senator Obama is an American citizen by birth of bi-racial parentage so I'm not sure what "foreigner" you're referring to and in what way you feel this hypothetical "foreigner has sold you down the river".

Please feel free to illuminate us with your sage wisdom i this regard.

As far as I know, this whole Rev. Wright issue came to the fore in the course of ABC's investigation of Obama's dubious religious background. Moreover, it is my understanding that the initial statements which sparked this controversy were recordings of a church sermon. It wasn't a soundbite from an appearance on Hardball or something of the like. That man was in his church saying the same gospel truth that he'd probably been saying forever, the same shit that Obama undoubtedly heard many many times, the same shit to which his 20 year presence in Wright's church implies an, at least, tacit approval. Obama has since thrown him under the bus, and the white media demonized him. Crackers want black folks to pretend the the historical and present racial injustices endemic to this country aren't real. And, they react viciously when their suspension of disbelief is threatened. Especially given Obama's recent disingenuous bullshit about having been offended by Wright's comments, Rev. Wright is well within his rights to defend himself publicly from the racially motivated character assassination he's being subjected to.

As to Obama, as I'm sure you already know, he was born in Hawaii to a foreign father and a white mother. That in and of itself would be enough to make me view him with suspicion. However, he also spent his formative years in a Muslim household (and school system) in Indonesia. Now, were he my dentist, then I wouldn't care about his tenuous claims to either blackness or "Americanness." But, as someone running for president, and especially someone touting himself as the potential first black president, I find the dubiety of both his ideological and ethnic backgrounds significant enough to create the appearance of a conflict of interest on both counts.

• Reverend Wright DOES have EVERY right to defend himself, but since you have had an anti-Obama agenda for quite some time, I seriously doubt you give a shit about the man
• Hawaii is a STATE
• Living overseas DOES NOT make you a foreigner
• Having an immigrant parent DOES NOT make you a foreigner
• Going to a Muslim school in Indonesia is about the equivalent of going to a Catholic school in Rome, would you prefer he NOT be educated?
• Half black has pretty much ALWAYS equaled black in this country, but now we wanna pick and choose
• A black "MAN" that likes strap-ons up the ass and is a rabid Hillary supporter is BEYOND suspect

As usual, you do your best to flower up shit, but it still smells.

well put, but still very suspect. I find the dubiety of your apparent definition of what is "black enough" or "american" enough to create an appearance of a conflict of interest in your ideals. You talk about what crackas want, yet you spit this foolishness questioning a black man, and discriminating against him because went to a muslim school as a kid. Unless you are black as night there is some "suspect" lineage in your background also. Is he not black enough for you, or is he just not nigga enough for you.

He was raised by a single mother, pops broke out and abandoned them, and both white people, and black people are hating on him and making him jump through hoops that no other candidate has to.......THAT SOUNDS BLACK TO ME

 

[HALO2]

CRAB OR NOT SHOOTING A MAN FOR HIS CONVICTIONS IS IGNORANT AND COUNTERPRODUCTIVE TO A CIVILIZED SOCIETY.

You are missing the point, this is the same society that allows drugs into the U.S. in order to create a job market and a level of economic stability.

This is the same society that allows you to bond out of jail depending on your crime, which means " If you have the money, we'll let you out."

This is the same society that convicts innocent people of crimes and years later after their lives are ruined....DNA testing sets them free. Alone here in Texas 18 people have been released who were wrongfully convicted...the latest just last week after spending 27 years in prison.

This is the same society that has monuments, cities and counties still named after Confederate soilders and areas where mass amounts of blacks were lynched..

Civilized society.....Wright has the right to say what he wants and someone also has the right to load a rifle and shut him the fuck up!!!Fuck what you are saying...If I had nothing to loose I would do him myself...

^^^I'm well aware of some white peoples seeming inability to deal with any truth that factually cast them in an unfavourable light.

I am also fully cognizant of the fact that Reverend Jeremiah Wright was indeed speaking truthfully in relation to the very real inhumanities that people of African descent have been (and are still being) subjected to both within and outside of the USA.

I cannot fault Reverend Wright for the original "controversy" of his previous sermons or supporting statements made long before the Illinois Senator made clear his intentions to run for office, but what I do hold the good Reverend accountable for is his current campaign which could have a very negative effect on Senator Obama and the overall journey towards the highest office within the land.

As I have said in other posts, it was and still is my position that Senator Obama made a serious mistake when he allowed himself to be coralled into a position of denunciation against Reverends Wright by the likes of Hillary Clinton and MSN.

If he had handled that situation promptly and in a tactfully precise manner, none of us would be having conversations of this nature.

Barack was just way too tentative when he should have been clinically decisive and gully.

Every individual has the right to defend their honour and good name and I would never advocate that Reverend Wright was not entitled to represent himself accurately in the face of a hostile press.

But he hasn't just done that.

Reverend Wright has actually gone out of his way to clearly state that he and Obama share the same views across the board and that Senator Obama is just doing what he has to do as a politician to get into the Whitehouse.

Do you hear Hillary Clinton, John McCain or any of their surrogates outlining any of the strategems they may have in place to ensure ultimate victory?

Are there any spiritual advisors for Hill and John out there systematically demolishing the candidacy of either one of these individuals just to satisfy their own sense of personal aggrievement?

The answer to the above two questions is a resounding NO!

I cannot for the life of me understand why some people feel the need to prove a point which has been proven add infinitum just to feel satisfied that they've vented their spleen.

Reverend Wright could've displayed tact and integrity in the face of this onslaught waited for a more ooportune time to hand the media their collective ass's.

It wouldn't have made him any less of a man to have excercised the wisdom that his status as an elder should have afforded him.

And that's the problem I have with Reverend Wrights actions at present.

As to Obama, as I'm sure you already know, he was born in Hawaii to a foreign father and a white mother. That in and of itself would be enough to make me view him with circumspection. However, he spent his formative years in a Muslim household (and school system) in Indonesia.

But, as someone running for president, and especially someone touting himself as the potential first black president, I find the dubiety of both his ideological and ethnic backgrounds significant enough to create the appearance of a conflict of interest on both counts.

^^^Barack Obama's father was a Kenyan national whilst his mother was a white American. Barack was born in the United States of America and regardless of what type of household or schooling system he was brought up in, has always been an American citizen.

I'm not sure what ethnicity has to do with how "American" an individual born on American soil is but I find your assertions as regards Senator Obama's "ideological and ethnic background" somewhat confounding and to some extent disturbing in the extreme.

Arnold Shwarzennegers father was a fully enlisted and recognized member of the Nazi party during WW2 but that didn't stop the former Hollywood actor from becoming the Governor of California.

And as you know, there are many who would not have a problem with the American constitution being changed to enable people like the esteemed cali Governor to run for president.

I haven't seen anyone questioning Arnies patriotism due to his fathers Nazi affiliation.

Unlike the "Austrian Oak," Senator Obama was actually born on American soil so I fail to see what his ethnicity (mixed or otherwise) has to do with anything.

Or would you argue that Arnold holds to the Nazi ideology just because his father was a Nazi?

I would suggest that the only conflict of interest reclines within the minds of people who choose to see conflict where none exists.

 

[samh32]

Poor Obama...Too Black for white people, and too white for black people... For anyone who follows any man for spiritual guidance, is a dam fool!

Why wasn't his punk ass calling out Senator Clinton who is actually the Senator for New York?

Hillary hasn't even uttered a word about that issue because she has no interest in injustice done to Sean Bell and his family.

But Al Sharpton has nothing to say to Hillary.

If Wright is truly a friend and backer of Obama he wouldn't have betrayed him by accusing Obama of being insincere. He said, "Barack just says what he says because he's a politician", meaning Obama just doesn't tell the truth like your average politician.

http://edition.cnn.com/2008/POLITICS...tin/index.html

CNN) -- Let's not kid ourselves. The Rev. Jeremiah Wright was going to be a part of this presidential campaign through November, whether Sen. Barack Obama smacked his former pastor upside the head, or not.

Now that he has taken the necessary steps to separate himself from Wright, Obama must go on his most vigorous offensive to date and make it clear that he is running for president, and not Wright.

Sen. Hillary Clinton is doing all she can to make the case to undeclared Democratic superdelegates that Obama is a wounded duck because of Wright; that she has a better shot at winning white working-class voters; and he's not tough enough to take on Sen. John McCain.

With that said, Obama is leading among the pledged delegates and the popular vote. He's also significantly closed the gap between himself and Clinton in superdelegates. Bottom line: He's winning.

But now it's time for him to ratchet up his message and to take back the stage from Clinton, McCain, and of course, Wright. One way to do that is to be far more forceful in advocating his position and direction for the country. Here are a few suggestions:

Let voters know that you will be calling the shots, not Wright. I've seen e-mails from voters who say they will not vote for Obama because of Wright. The junior senator of Illinois must challenge them directly.

Tell them flat out that Wright will not keep their homes from foreclosure.
Don't Miss

* Martin: 'Average' American will never be president
* Martin: Democrats finally getting religion on religion
* Martin: Listen to the candidates
* Roland Martin archive

Tell them that Wright has absolutely nothing to do with gas prices doubling under the presidency of George W. Bush.

Make it plain that your name is on the ballot and not his, and you're the guy who has the right plan to transform the country.

Have your supporters increase the book sales of Alan Greenspan. McCain said last year that the economy wasn't his strong suit, and that he needed to read up on the books of the former Federal Reserve chairman. I would put some of those young supporters to use and have them greet McCain at every campaign stop with a copy of a Greenspan book. Even print up some Greenspan masks and hound him to death.

Then you must back that in-your-face campaigning with an economic message that speaks to the masses, especially those blue-collar voters. Show them that the Bush tax cuts that McCain wants to continue will benefit those same business owners who are shipping their jobs overseas.

Tell blue-collar voters that the hedge fund owners that are snapping up companies and slashing their jobs don't care about them, and will be happy to fund the campaign of McCain.

Make the case that he might be a good guy, but he's more concerned about the tax bracket of his wife (she's worth in excess of $100 million) than the middle- class voters in Ohio and Pennsylvania.

They say you've got a white problem? Tell those white rural voters that voting against their economic interests is political suicide.

Make it clear to women, especially white women, that Roe v. Wade will be extinct if McCain wins. The next president is going to choose three Supreme Court justices.

There is no way -- no way -- that the religious right will let a President McCain appoint anyone with a moderate bone in his or her body. Remember Harriet Miers? Bush even said he knew her heart, and they told him to go to hell.

What Obama has to tell those women, who are supporting Sen. Hillary Clinton in huge numbers, and will be disappointed if she's not the nominee, is that sitting at home on Election Day, or crossing the aisle and voting for McCain, virtually assures that a woman's right to choose what to do with her body will be taken from her.

I would run an ad slapping a large "C" for conservative on the faces of Justices John Roberts, Samuel Alito, Clarence Thomas, and Antonin Scalia, and make it clear that three other justices will likely step down.

If McCain chooses, the new justices will vote with the conservative bloc. That is a day the pro-choice movement never wants to see.

Make college tuition a cornerstone of your campaign. You and Michelle paid off your student loans three years ago -- why keep that such a secret? Hit folks over the head with it.

With Sallie Mae cutting back and being more selective on student loans, parents' ability to pay for their kids to go to school is a huge issue. Push it. Hard. Don't let it be just one of many items on the list.

Convene a panel in Indiana, North Carolina and Oregon of parents and young folks and let them express their fears about not being able to go to college and get a good job. There isn't a parent, aunt or uncle who isn't concerned with that issue.

The war still matters. I'm watching Lanny Davis, a big-time Clinton surrogate on "Larry King Live," challenge Obama's judgment on attending Wright's Chicago church for 20 years. Obama must re-engage the electorate and say that the judgment of Clinton and McCain has led to a war that has cost us 4,000 lives and billions of dollars.

Those costs are real. Don't let it slide by. Ratchet up the sound. Don't let voters forget for a second that the wrong choice was made by your opponents.

A lot of folks are assuming the doom-and-gloom scenario for Obama. Everyone is saying he's toast, and this race is over. But we forget that conservatives really don't love McCain, and the evangelicals aren't hot in love with him either.

Go back to who you are: Mr. Change. Drive the issues home in a more forceful manner. The election is little more than six months away, and a whole lot can happen between now and November 5.

What he said was that Obama does what he has to do as a politician and he does what he has to do as a minister and that their jobs are different. He DID NOT say or imply Obama was lying or some sort of hack. The comment was made in defense of HIS comments and the fact that since he was NOT running for office, there was no reason for him to censor himself.

I have reached the conclusion that this entire argument is between people that actually took the time to listen to Wright's comments and people who have been TOLD to be angry with Wright by the media (Same reason y'all hate Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, Farrakhan and 15 BILLION Muslims (because the MEDIA told you to) .

Man, I've been reading your posts and while you do seem to have a vast vocabulary, nobody taught your ass how to string those words together into lucid thoughts. You're like that character Damon Wayans used to play on "In Living Color" who would "prognosticate his colo-rectal edification so that the electromagnetic urethra of his existence could percolate in a simmering fecal capillary"

^^^If you say so......Zero.
