Tammy Bruce: Obama and His Racist, America-Hating "Pastor"

Obama and His Racist, America-Hating "Pastor"

The very cozy Obama and Wright.

**Television programming note**: Gateway Pundit is noting that Major Garrett will have Barack Obama tonight on Hannity & Colmes/Fox News to discuss the Wright situation. They also have the full collection of Wright video spew. Perhaps now we know the real reason the Obama campaign has been desperate to paint Hillary and her supporters as 'racist'--to distract from their own ugly, racist underbelly.

After working feverishly to ignore the extraordinary racist, hate-filled comments by Barack Hussein Obama's "pastor", Rev. Jeremiah A. Wright Jr., they finally have been forced to admit he exist. Initially, Obama refused to outright condemn comments that ranged from urging black Americans to sing "God damn America," to proposing the theory that America engineered the AIDS virus to genocide people of color and deliberately distributes drugs to me of color, and that America is a terrorist nation. When you hear these remarkably paranoid assertions Michelle Obama's paranoid and America-hating rants make a lot more sense. After all, this is the man who has been Obama's mentor for 20 years, married the Obamas, and baptized their daughters (which means those two bright little girls are exposed to this racist, hate-based insanity.

Ron Kessler, who is associated with the McCain campaign, provided an opinion piece in today's WSJ, the first national newspaper to address this remarkable relationship between the leading Democrat candidate and a hate-monger:

Obama and the Minister

In a sermon delivered at Howard University, Barack Obama's longtime minister, friend and adviser blamed America for starting the AIDS virus, training professional killers, importing drugs and creating a racist society that would never elect a black candidate president.

The Rev. Jeremiah A. Wright Jr., pastor of Mr. Obama's Trinity United Church of Christ in Chicago, gave the sermon at the school's Andrew Rankin Memorial Chapel in Washington on Jan. 15, 2006...Mr. Wright thundered on: "America is still the No. 1 killer in the world. . . . We are deeply involved in the importing of drugs, the exporting of guns, and the training of professional killers . . . We bombed Cambodia, Iraq and Nicaragua, killing women and children while trying to get public opinion turned against Castro and Ghadhafi . . . We put [Nelson] Mandela in prison and supported apartheid the whole 27 years he was there. We believe in white supremacy and black inferiority and believe it more than we believe in God." [...]

As for Mr. Wright's repeated comments blaming America for the 9/11 attacks because of what Mr. Wright calls its racist and violent policies, Mr. Obama has said it sounds as if the minister was trying to be "provocative."

Hearing Mr. Wright's venomous and paranoid denunciations of this country, the vast majority of Americans would walk out. Instead, Mr. Obama and his wife Michelle have presumably sat through numerous similar sermons by Mr. Wright.

Indeed, Mr. Obama has described Mr. Wright as his "sounding board" during the two decades he has known him. Mr. Obama has said he found religion through the minister in the 1980s. He joined the church in 1991 and walked down the aisle in a formal commitment of faith.

The title of Mr. Obama's bestseller "The Audacity of Hope" comes from one of Wright's sermons. Mr. Wright is one of the first people Mr. Obama thanked after his election to the Senate in 2004. Mr. Obama consulted Mr. Wright before deciding to run for president. He prayed privately with Mr. Wright before announcing his candidacy last year.

Mr. Obama obviously would not choose to belong to Mr. Wright's church and seek his advice unless he agreed with at least some of his views. In light of Mr. Wright's perspective, Michelle Obama's comment that she feels proud of America for the first time in her adult life makes perfect sense.

The WSJ piece follows ABC News and their coverage of Wright stating we were to blame for 9/11 and that blacks should condemn the United States. Finally, of Obama and his racist mentor. Finally, Obama responds with a little fluff piece, on the lefty hate blog Huffington Post of all places, which once again waxes on about how great the 'pastor' is but Obama rejects his comments. He skips over the intense relationship they have, including the fact that it was Wright with whom Obama consulted when he was deciding whether or not to run for president, and then "prayed" with him as he decided to do so. Obama also thanked Wright prominently when he first won his senate seat. Yet Obama claims, absurdly, that Wright was never a mentor, and that he never, ever heard this man say anything at all ever close to what has been revealed in the past few weeks.
Yeah, sure.

This last week has been rather priceless--here we have Obama and his minions still pushing the absurdity of the entire Hillary campaign as racist, including the smear against Geraldine Ferraro. Ferraro leaves the Clinton campaign, and HiIllary apologizes to every black person on Earth for everything that ever happened. Yet the stench of racism and hate emanates from only one place--the Barack Obama campaign, his closest friend and adviser, and arguably from Obama himself and his wife. Yet no one has apologized. In fact, big news has been made of the fact thatWright stepped down from one Obama campaign position he held yet the Obama campaign insists he will stay on as a "spirtual adviser." I guess that would be the Racist, Hate America First fort of spirituality.

The next question needs to be, does Hillary and Co. have what it takes to demand an apology from Obama and his minions for the racism and hate they've been spewing? Will she demand Obama apologize for Wright, and that Wright be banished from his campaign entirely? If she doesn't have the cajones to face down a bunch of political thugs and a depraved, paranoid, how can we expect her to deal with the world's tyrants?

This is a test for Hillary. I noted weeks ago, that with all we detest about th Clintons, it's safe to say they do not hate this country. Now we know the Obamas truly do.

Comments

Now I can understand Michelle's strident views. Worse yet, I understand how naive the boy senator really is. I honestly don't believe Barry harbors these bigoted sentiments but he is dreadfully unqualified to deal with the dictators and sworn enemies of America. Maybe he couldn't recognize hatred if it married him, preached to him or voted for him.

He is not resigned from the campaign, but he is far from 'gone'. Obama himself said, "his speeches were becoming a political lightnening rod" -does that sway our concerns about what Obama actually believes? No, in fact he sounds like Bill and Hillary on that explaination. Sick. all if it is sick..

As for the question of whether Hillary has the cajones to highlight Sen. Obama's radical associations, I propose to you that they will not since hers are as bad as his.

To hear Obama tell it on Fox, he NEVER HEARD of this minister before today. No, it certainly all fits now: a radical leftist with a gift of gab--a self-programmed Manchurian candidate. This minister's vanity--his willingness to be recorded--has saved us from a nightmare. Randy.

Trojan horse,

He's unfit to represent the people of the great state of Illinois or any other state in these United States.

Wait a minute. Wasn't it sharp pen who said blacks can't be racist because they have no power, or was it former US ambassador to the United Nations Andrew Young when he was caught saying racist things? So with that logic...By the way, look at alot of the African American Studies courses in Afrocentricism at any major university and you will see alot of this type of rhetoric of hate.

THE STORY OF "O"

The Senator also said

"The statements that Rev. Wright made that are the cause of this controversy were not statements I personally heard him preach while I sat in the pews of Trinity or heard him utter in private conversation."

Now that sounds like a flat out untruth. I just don't believe it.

Senator Obama seriously expects us to buy that?

It just so happens the only hate preach rants made by Jeremiah X. in the 20 years Obama has been a member of the church, were all videod.

Wow. What a coincidence. And what a coincidence that he was not there either.

Come on Barack. Mind you, the Obamaniacs will believe anything so he may get away with it.

Kudos the Sean Hannity though. He has been after this like a dog with a bone for months, all but ignored by everyone. Including most other Foxbots like O'Reilly.

In fact, earlier this week when Hannity was going on for the umpteenth time, I was getting really bored and wishing he'd just drop it. How wrong was I now it's starting to ignite.

This minister is vulgar. But his kind of sermons go on in a many of black churches. The kind of company you keep says alot about the individual. Obama has been a member of this man's church for 20 years. I'll give Obama the benefit of the doubt. I don't believe he agrees with what the minister said. In fact, he was insulting Obama's mother. But he must explain this to the public. He shouldn't be making vague statement through his press agents.

If he really is about "change" and uniting people he needs to explain himself. In all honesty, since the media considers him the holy messiah, they probably won't question him on it. So much for OBJECTIVE media.

MORE MCAMNESTY HYPOCRISY!

McAmnesty recently sought out and got the endorsement of fundamentalist minister Hagee, an outspoken hater of Catholics and Jews, and has the temerity to send his minions out on Obama's ties to Wright? He's doing the same despicable thing! How about McAmnesty's close ties to America-hating globalist George Soros, who not only talks but walks on destroying America financially through the devastating costs of the invasion by 25 million illegal aliens and terrorists, and the sellout trade agreements designed to eliminate our middle class and the democracy based on it? Oh yeah, McAmnesty's too busy helping French government-funded Airbus destroy American company Boeing on national security contracts, and hiding in Europe while the Boeing storm plays out, studying ways to further sell out the United States. A real leader!

My parents and in-laws spent their first 10 years living in the Great Depression. Do you know anyone from that generation who throws anything away, since they lived when people here literally starved to death? The acts of globalist sellouts Sidney McAmnesty, Hussein Obamination, and Sir Edmund Hillary to provoke another such horrible financial depression to get us to "demand" that our new President immediately move to create MexAmeriCanada with its shiny new Amero is CRIMINAL. They are all traitors, and are not fit to live here, let alone be President. I hope they are happy with their 30 pieces of silver.

I wouldn't call John McCain a traitor unless I judged him through the prism of a John Birch paranoia.

lets see...... barry hangs with racist bigots for 20 years but HE'S gonna unite us all if we just "believe"? Not me O , I dont believe
PS: the Cool people call barry "O" :-)

Iowa, I'd like to see some of your proof that Hagee is anti-Jew, considering that he's had a rather prominent Jewish conservative to speak at his church.

Posted by: N_Campbell at March 15, 2008 05:45 PM

Are we suppose to believe, that a man with such great knowledge and hope for the world didnt know or hear about this stuff in the 20 years of attending, Heres the deal i honestly do not care if my president is black or a women so dont catergorize me as a hater ,But i am a very proud american, I do not want this man representing me!! i feel there is an air about a person that he or she has to have to be voted as president with me and i dont feel like either of these candidates carry any of that! Im just glad that the truth finally is coming out, i think we all knew it, but we as a society always climb on bandwagons!! It is when you chose not to follow, that is when you become the real Leader!! i will not follow either candidate, except for maybe the quiet old guy !!, Who knows!
