If Wright is a "moderate" what the hell is going on that Brazile finds extreme?

Re: Donna Brazile is lying about Wright's moderate (2.00 / 2)

MODERATE?

Wright said FDR lied about Pearl Harbor and by choice and actions ALLOWED THOUSANDS OF AMERICAN BOYS TO BURN TO DEATH.
ON PURPOSE..

Wright said the US government created the HIV virus in order to purposefully cause a global genocide to kill tens of millions of people of color.

Wright said "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....We have supported state terrorism against the Palestinians .. 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."

BTW, that chicken line is verbatim of what Malcolm X said about the "justice" of the murder of JFK you know.

Any comment from Teddy on that?

Any chance that (none / 0)

in a zealous attempt to continue the unending spin (from both sides) of this campaign we are failing to distinguish between fiery rhetorical hyperbole and firm, honestly held beliefs?

Nah.

Here is a simple test. Just ask Obama if he believes in every one of those statements. If he hesitates to answer, then nail him.

Re: Donna Brazile is lying about Wright's moderate (none / 0)

I've watched Obama on various news programs and I read his reponse to the Wright rhetoric. My concern is that he is parsing. He seeks to seperate himself from the good pasotrs' firery rhetoric and yet not from the church. The foundation of his church is Ethno-Centric Liberation Theology. The good pastors'
sermons reflect this and sermons that propound similar ideas will continue in the church if this church retains it's principals. Since the very foundation of this philosophy is the mixing of politics and religion through activism. Is this wrong? Maybe not but since the beginning of the Roman Catholic Church, the erroneous historical distortion propagated in christianity that the Jews killed Jesus led to anti-semitism throughout the world. It's only recently that Pope John Paul II formally recognized the church's error and sought reconciliation with the Jewish community. Biblical historians and scholars have sought to correct the distortion. It is plain to see how history can be distorted and used to great effect to promote a particular agenda. Most people don't study the Roman Empire and as a result have no clue how much history effects the present. Aside from being interesting reading, it does remind me how fine a line there is when todays' perspective is applied to history without caution. Words do matter especially through repetition and distortion. By the way, in Ancient Rome, there was no black and white per say; only tribes, religions and regions. Race was defined as much by religion ( Jews ) as tribe ( Germans,Celts ) or region ( Egyptian, Gaul ). To the Romans it was Romans ( citizens of Rome proper ) and everyone else who were considered Other and in client relationship with the empire. To the Romans it was about the class structure and stability. The historical Jesus and his followers threatened both. The Jews were always a threat to both because of the practice of nationalist religion which always baffled the Romans and was unique in the ancient world.

"If Wright is a "moderate" what the hell is going on that Brazile finds extreme?"

Human sacrifice, perhaps?

Wow... the Democratic icons are dropping like flies in the blogosphere these days...

I still listen to Donna...  I like hearing her perspective on things...  I've never run a campaign, she has...  


Like the nominee, don't like the nominee... Our nominee is still better than John McCain...

Re: Donna Brazile is lying about Wright's moderate (none / 0)

Yeah - that's exactly it. She's all about human sacrifice.

Honestly, do you all read what you write before hitting "post"? Or do you just spew vile crap and leave it at that?
