Shocking video that makes one wonder how Obama could sit through the blistering, bitter sermons that would outrage the average American. Wright also blames the U.S. for 9/11. (Youtube, Townhall)
The Chicago Tribune says of Obama: In Wright he had found both a spiritual mentor and a role model. (Chicago Tribune)
As a presidential candidate, Obama has tried to distance himself from Wright. The story notes Wright “baptized Mr. Obama at the Trinity United Church of Christ, presided over his wedding there and inspired him in his career as a community activist and a politician.” (Washington Times)
From Victor Davis Hanson: The problem is that he is not simply a well-meaning black pastor, sounding themes of African-American self-improvement. His loopy references about the past, and the many sins of a white racist America, coupled with his promiscuous use of slurs about other races and religions, (and his own country), put him clearly in the camp of extremists. In other words, he is a nut, and the more Obama’s tries to pooh-pooh that, the worse it gets. Most who could sit through those diatribes and venom each week might find it difficult to have a balanced view of so-called “white” people or the country at large. (NRO)
Another story notes Jews are concerned because “Obama's own pastor has a history of supporting Palestinian causes.” (ABC News)
