ARTICLE ON OBAMA’S FAITH MISSES JEREMIAH WRIGHT Nevermind that elephant in the room. As Obama tries to convince Christians he is one of them, this Post article comes out. (From Dr. Paul Kengor on Obama’s religious talk: And don’t expect liberals in the mainstream press to attack Obama. Rather, expect them to continue to suddenly get that old-time religion, to further satiate their newfound fascination...

Airbrushing Obambi: The Washington Post has a front-page story about Barack Obama’s religious faith. It goes on for 20 paragraphs without ever mentioning Trinity Church and its long-time pastor Jeremiah Wright. This doesn’t mean that Post reporter Jonathan Weisman and...

Eric Scott Raymond mirrors some of my thoughts: No, what really put me off Barack Obama was the increasingly creepy and pathological tenor of the relationship between him and his fans. I think it was in mid-February, a bit before the Jeremiah Wright story got really ugly, that I started to notice my “Never Again!” nerves tingling. I’m not Jewish. But I read The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich at an...

Wonkette has her ever-unique take on the presidential race: Bob Barr looks like Reverend Jeremiah Wright and will probably cost John McCain the election, and for these two reasons alone Barack Obama makes love to Bob Barr’s voodoo doll in his hyperbaric Hope chamber every night. You see, 6% of Zogby poll respondents said they would [...]

Not sure I agree with your agreement, exactly Loco. I mean, how did Jeremiah Wright get involved in this? As for hate, I like to think it isn't *hate* but passion you're reading in these posts. That's understandable. I would probably rank as a "hater" if sheer vehemence is all it takes to qualify. But I don't hate the old bastard. I hate what he did. I hate what he stood for -- and no, it wasn't "conservatism,"...

Reading some of the posts there and here. Some people don't have a license to be complaining about hate. When you do that, tell us again how you're better than Helms? Better yet, tell us how Jeremiah Wright is better than Helms.

ByDick Morris By Dick Morris Barack Obama yesterday kicked off a week of patriotic speeches. It’s much more than the normal politician’s July 4 oration - it’s Obama’s answer to a crucial test. After all, millions of Americans have seen the tapes of the Rev. Jeremiah Wright - Obama’s longtime pastor - damning America, painting our [...]

When the furore about the Rev Jeremiah Wright and Barack Obama was at its height a few months ago, one of the biggest hits on YouTube revealed that the Republican contender John McCain had his own pastor problem. Sandwiched between the kind of comic clips for which the site is best known, the video produced by Brave New Films showed the Rev Rod Parsley, a spiritual adviser to John McCain, making incendiary...

The Washington Post has a front-page story about Barack Obama's religious faith. It goes on for 20 paragraphs without ever mentioning Trinity Church and its long-time pastor Jeremiah Wright. This doesn't mean that Post reporter Jonathan Weisman and his editors at the Post are biased in favor of Obama. They probably just didn't think that the church Obama attended for two decades (until earlier this...

Guess how many times Rev. Jeremiah “God Damn America” Wright is mentioned in the page A1 story about Obama’s faith in the Washington Post ? Zero. But I guess there’s no sense mentioning the man, in an article about Obama’s spiritual side, who married Barack to his wife, baptized his children, worked for his campaign, wrote the sermon Obama named a book and his campaign theme after and presided over...

The Washington Post published a front page story on Sunday headlined "Obama Addresses His Faith: Senator Describes Spiritual Journey." But it completely ignored Rev. Jeremiah Wright and the Trinity United Church of Christ. Obama was allowed to declare to audiences how he "let Jesus Christ into his life" on the south side of Chicago, but the Post utterly left out the fact that it was Rev. Wright who...

By Darryl Pinckney New York Review of Books My parents, old NAACP activists, live in front of CNN, and back in April I happened to be with them in Indianapolis the week before the Indiana primary, when the Reverend Jeremiah Wright controversy returned to embarrass Senator Barack Obama's campaign. To my mother, passionately pro-Obama, nothing justified what she saw as Wright's weekend of self-promotion:...

Obama has made a name for himself throwing people under his campaign bus, even long-time close personal friends like Jeremiah Wright, his pastor and mentor for 20 years. However, when he is targeting specific audiences, he sometimes like to drag people out from under the bus. In an interview in April with the gay magazine "The Advocate ", Barack attacked black Christian churches, and praised his former...

Attacks on him are really attacks on the black church, claims the Rev. Jeremiah A. Wright Jr. in a speech to the National Press Club in Washington, D.C. Monday. Throughout his speech—which was more of a sermon to a willing congregation—Wright compared South Africa’s former apartheid to the current treatment of black Americans in the US Wright continued his railing against anyone who questions his
