    I have to go to work so I don't have time for a long response. It's not just the racial issues many Americans have issue with. They also think the pastor is anti-American because other sermons like his 9-11 one were taken out of context as well. I understand you don't watch tv, but if caught a glimpse of what is going on at FOX news you would understand. I'll get to the racial stuff later.

    Ah, well I haven't brought up any of that, just the racial remarks and I thought you were making the point that those remarks were also taken out of context. This thread is about the racial remarks.
    If you want to tell people the truth, make them laugh, otherwise they'll kill you.

    Man is least himself when he talks in his own person. Give him a mask, and he will tell you the truth.

    A lot of the things I have heard Wright say I absolutely agree with. And I'm as white male as it gets. He talks of foreign policy blunders being responsible for much of America's problems, he talks of how the poor have been repressed. I can actually see how Obama got some of his anti-war views and his concerns for middle and lower class America. I think Wright's views have helped shape Obama in a good way. Obama was smart enough to pick and choose throughout Wrights sermons to help shape his views to better help society.

    I know some of you here that are critical of Obama agree with a lot of what this pastor has said as well. Your just too afraid to admit it


    i'm sorry to break it to you, Brandon, but now all the Obama supporters think you are a fucking idiot for thiking Obama was anti-war
    'and I can't imagine why you wouldn't welcome any change, my brother'

    'How a culture can forget its plan of yesterday
    and you swear it's not a trend
    it doesn't matter anyway
    there's no need to talk as friends
    nothing news everyday
    all the kids will eat it up
    if it's packaged properly'
