AND NOW FOR SOME WORDS FROM HIS SPIRITUAL ADVISOR

HE IS..........ANTI-WHITE, ANTI-ISRAEL, ANTI-GAY AND ANTI-AMERICAN (just after 9/11). Who is he? He is the good Reverend Wright from the Trinity church. Also the self admitted "spiritual advisor" to Barach Obama, and the man who married the Obama's and baptised the Obama children.
He is also someone who said this....in a sermon delivered last December. Wright argued that Hillary Clinton's road to the White House is considerably easier than Barack Obama's because of his skin color.
"Hillary was not a black boy raised in a single parent home. Barack was," Wright says in a video of the sermon posted on YouTube. "Barack knows what it means to be a black man living in a country and a culture that is controlled by rich white people. Hillary! Hillary ain't never been called a 'n—–!' Hillary has never had her people defined as a non-person."


And, just after 9/11, he said this..................."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," he said. "We have supported state terrorism against the Palestinians and black South Africans, and now we are indignant. Because the stuff we have done overseas has now brought right back into our own front yards. America's chickens are coming home to roost."
And he said this.......And in a 2003 sermon, Wright said of America's treatment of African-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, G– d— America, that's in the Bible for killing innocent people."


And in response, Obama said this.....Obama said he had not personally heard the controversial sermons. "When these statements first came to my attention, it was at the beginning of my presidential campaign. I made it clear at the time that I strongly condemned his comments," Obama wrote. "But because Rev. Wright was on the verge of retirement, and because of my strong links to the Trinity faith community, where I married my wife and where my daughters were baptized, I did not think it appropriate to leave the church."
"I categorically denounce any statement that disparages our great country or serves to divide us from our allies," he added. "I also believe that words that degrade individuals have no place in our public dialogue, whether it's on the campaign stump or in the pulpit. In sum, I reject outright the statements by Rev. Wright that are at issue."
But Obama defended his 20-year relationship with Wright, writing, "He has never been my political advisor; he's been my pastor. And the sermons I heard him preach always related to our obligation to love God and one another, to work on behalf of the poor, and to seek justice at every turn."

Obama and Wright have been close for years. Obama has been a member of Wright's church since his days in law school, and Obama's best-selling book, "The Audacity of Hope," takes its title from one of Wright's sermons.

NOW TELL ME YOU STILL SUPPORT ONE OF REVEREND WRIGHT'S FLOCK?
