During a Christmas sermon, Wright tried to compare Obama's upbringing to Jesus at the hands of the Romans.

"Barack knows what it means living in a country and a culture that is controlled by rich white people," Wright said. "Hillary would never know that.

"Hillary ain't never been called a nigger. Hillary has never had a people defined as a non-person."

In his Jan. 13 sermon, Wright said:

"Hillary is married to Bill, and Bill has been good to us. No he ain't! Bill did us, just like he did Monica Lewinsky. He was riding dirty."

1. Another race-oriented post

[apocalypsehow]

31. The OP has had lots of practice with them.

n/t.

[BeyondGeography]

2. Is this part of Hillary's plan to win the GE without the black vote?

:thumbsup:

[MonkeyFunk]

6. You're blaming Hillary for these comments?

[dchill]

10. I am now.

[boston bean]

13. it is the ultimate spin. nt

[BeyondGeography]

14. Nah, just messin' with Hermie

cause he's kind of a mess, you know?

[dchill]

7. !

:thumbsup:

[rodeodance]

33. SHAME ON YOU. Blame HRC. What a crock of poop your comment was!

[dchill]

3. "He was riding dirty."

And so are you.

[Metric System]

4. OMG! It's just more proof that the Obama camp has been gunning for the Clintons for some time.

[MadBadger]

8. You're unhinged

lol

[Metric System]

20. No, I'm not. "Bill did us, just like he did Monica Lewinsky. He was riding dirty." Is an unnecessary

and inflammatory comment to make.

[MadBadger]

25. See Ferraro actually had a job (unpaid, but still a job) with the campaign. Wright doesnt

Of course it wasn inflammatory, but you said the Obama camp.

[boston bean]

5. This is offensive. nt

[Mooney]

9. Why am I not surprised that you're citing Fox News? n/t

[AX10]

11. Herman, we can all see the Obamites who are calling..

you a racist for brining up something racial which was said from a Pro-Obama person.
The PC left wing has gone overboard.
Warning Obamites: This "race-guilt" crap will fail in the GE.

[DJ13]

12. The South? no Blacks? no Small States? no

The majority of Democrats that have supported Obama? no

Just WHO do you Clinton supporters expect to vote for her in the GE if she gets that far?

Neocon Republicans?

15. The Obama campaign issued a statement in response..."deeply disagrees"..

"Senator 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," said Bill Burton, a campaign spokesman.

"Senator 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 Senator Obama deeply disagrees."

[boston bean]

22. I'm pretty sure that is not in response to this. It was in response to Farrakhan. Please provide a

link.

[jmg257]

27. The OP provided link - read the article. Response to Fox's enquiries on this specific issue...

The Obama campaign issued a statement in response to FOX News' inquiries about Wright's sermons.

"Senator 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," said Bill Burton, a campaign spokesman.

"Senator 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 Senator Obama deeply disagrees."

[boston bean]

38. Well, that is the same spiel as before then. Par for the course, just xerox

the non apology.

Sorry I know it was a low blow, I just couldn't help it.

[UALRBSofL]

32. He never did denounce him though

I remember this, just look at my siggy.

[jmg257]

34. No - "he defends his activism for blacks..."

"Obama defended Wright's longtime activism for blacks in America last week at a campaign event in Ohio.

"Jeremiah Wright ... has said some things that are considered controversial because he's considered that part of his social gospel," Obama said.

From same article.

[Bluebear]

41. Yeah he "deeply disagreed" with McClurkin too after the damage was done.

[meow mix]

16. hey look a verified racist.

heres your favorite racist thread

17. Again. We don't give a FAT RAT'S ASS about Rev. Wright or Obama's church. We're voting for OBAMA!!!!

Wright is the retiring pastor of Obama's church. He is not his "spiritual advisor." That's just RePUBICan talking points. Is Anti-Catholic Rev. Hagee in San Antonio, McCain's spiritual advisor? Catholics should definitely not be voting for McCain.

[Freida5]

18. What a Christian message.

[boston bean]

44. I wonder if is was his Christmas sermon? nt

[Catherine Vincent]

19. Obama needs to shut that pastor up.

And fast!

[Nitrogenica]

21. Resorting to FOX news to help Hillary win? Maybe you should listen

to Rush too. I hear he can help you defeat Obama.

[boston bean]

24. It will be on MSNBC, your fav tomorrow. I wonder if KeithO will have a special comment. nt

[Nitrogenica]

28. My "fave?" MSNBC is not yours? Is FOX your "fave"?

[boston bean]

40. I have to watch CNN now, cause MSNBC has turned into MSNOBAMAC.

[ecstatic]

23. So HRC supporters have switched from MsNBC to FOX. How sad

Now hannity is your best friend, right?

[MadBadger]

26. Ferraro is a Fox News Analyst...figures

[Metric System]

36. Excuse me, but it's Obama supporters who have posted articles by Andrew Sullivan, Peggy Noonan and

a bunch of other Rethugs on here.

[rodeodance]

37. nah---just keeping up with the BO folks--they have been posting RWincluding Drudge!!

[ecstatic]

29. And the funny part is you don't get it. You're caught up in the shock value

but what you don't get is the larger picture, which is that HRC can no longer rely on the black vote. There is genuine hurt, anger, and a sense of betrayal in the black community because HRC's actions have now reached an entirely disgusting level. So keep posting the most shocking comments you can while missing the point.

[Straight Shooter]

30. How many sermons in the past has Pastor Wright denigrated the Clintons?

Just curious. Is there an archive somewhere of all his sermons? Because I'd really like to know how long he's had such a hatred for the Clintons that he would use this type of vulgar language in a Christmas sermon, for gawd's sake, of all times. Peace and good will toward men. Ha!

Has Obama ever been called a c*nt? Nope, didn't think so.

[Herman Munster]

35. edited OP to provide a video link

39. Since when did folks on DU start watching FOX

[grantcart]

42. quoting from Obama's minister - your disgraceful status from yesterday has gone to your head

You were much more enjoyable arguing that Obama landslides were a victory for Clinton because it was marginally less great of another more recent landslide in an ajoining state.

We were hoping that you would apply some of that keen intellectual spin on the Mississipi results.

When you have a thread will you please address that please.

Everybody can use a good laugh.

[boston bean]

43. r u 4 real? nt

[Catherine Vincent]

45. No comment on what the pastor said?

Figures.

[cgma3414]

46. video

anyone have a link to the entire video -- not just the one posted on the fox website -- the one that shows Wright humping the pulpit 'riding dirty'?

i think they've all been taken off youtube

[ElsewheresDaughter]

47. Shame on Rev Wright

[judaspriestess]

50. beyond despicable

hate, hate, hate and more hate is all I hear.

on edit: bringing up the fact that fox has the story is just a red herring diversion from the REALITY of what this pastor said. stop trying to change the subject.

I alerted on a huckabee thread yesterday from an obama supporter quoting huckabee on Hillary's experience. Thats acceptable right? a pro huckabee thread? HIGHlarious and ridiculous

[ElsewheresDaughter]

51. The Rev Wright misspoke....

Obama was NOT raised as a poor Black man...he was raised by his white mother & white grandparents and went to private schools in a tropical paradise no?
