ORIGINAL: DomYngBlk What exactly was vile in what he said? I hear all the complaining but never any hard evidence. Well, I'm not interested in spending the time to listen to all of his Sunday sermons ... but the "right wing" ABC News site has an article about the research that they did ... Obama's Pastor: God Damn America, U.S. to Blame for 9/11 By BRIAN ROSS and REHAB EL-BURI March 13, 2008 Sen. Barack Obama's pastor says blacks should not sing "God Bless America" but "God damn America." The Rev. Jeremiah Wright, Obama's pastor for the last 20 years at the Trinity United Church of Christ on Chicago's south side, has a long history of what even Obama's campaign aides concede is "inflammatory rhetoric," including the assertion that the United States brought on the 9/11 attacks with its own "terrorism." ... An ABC News review of dozens of Rev. Wright's sermons, offered for sale by the church, found repeated denunciations of the U.S. based on what he described as his reading of the Gospels and the treatment of black Americans. "The government gives them the drugs, builds bigger prisons, passes a three-strike law and then wants us to sing 'God Bless America.' No, no, no, God damn America, that's in the Bible for killing innocent people," he said in a 2003 sermon. "God damn America for treating our citizens as less than human. God damn America for as long as she acts like she is God and she is supreme." In addition to damning America, he told his congregation on the Sunday after Sept. 11, 2001 that the United States had brought on al Qaeda's attacks because of its own terrorism. Firm So you are going to tell me you don't build bigger prisons to put us in? Drugs don't find their way to our neighborhoods faster? I don't see anyone arresting any of the bankers laundering the drug money. Do you? Do you suppose the bombings of 9/11 didnt' have a starting point? Or even the earlier ones in the 90's? Kenyan Embassies? Why did they do that firm. You going to tell me the Government has always treated me and you alike? Go on back to your fantasy world pops. Hell you live in Kentucky look around bubba
