Obama vs. Jesus
I feel bad for him. Only a 4 car garage.
What McMansion would Jesus buy?
I am sure ALL our welcome.
From the same source as the now famous Obama NPR radio clip:
It’s The Theology, Stupid – Part 1
It’s The Theology, Stupid – Part 2
It’s The Theology, Stupid – Part 3
I think whoever is behind “Naked Emperor News” has done a better job of investigative journalism, as a sole practictioner, than all of the MSM COMBINED!
Does literally anyone care that this thread and others is swarming with racist commentary? Anyone? It’s really astounding. You dont just get to say “raaaacist” and then be a racist, dummies. It doesn’t get you off the hook.
It also kind of confirms criticism that this site is well, racist.
See that’s the thing about redistribution of income vs wealth. By redistributing income through taxation, those who are seek to to become rich are punished, but those who are wealthy have already gotten theirs. Soros and Buffett are already wealthy, so they get to keep all their existing money. They got theirs, but screw you.
The man known as Wright has accused me of racism because of the color of my skin. The man has never met me and has publicly ‘god-damned’ this country. I suppose when one such as him goes so far over the line you can expect some harsh criticism in return. I don’t see swarming racist commentary out here but rather smarmy racist commentary.
God has no problem with people being wealthy.
Solomon had a lot more wealth than Jeremiah Wright.
God cares about what is in your heart, not what’s in your bank account. Does your heart love God, or does your heart love money?
Now, based on Jeremiah’s own spoken words, do you believe his heart loves God or loves money?
I don’t see evidence of the love of God in his heart…
right4life
Having read my post again, I sense you may have issues of clarity…. I am hoping Wright gets what those men and others got… I didn’t refer to any issues those people have been involved with…. I simply referred to the repercussions which Wright has not seen as yet and I repeat that I don’t believe I’ll see it. I am neither ignorant or left wing and you’re innuendo is offensive.
I messed up the third link last time, so please allow me to correct that…

Puhleez Mr. Troll…sure there are a few comments that are disturbing but in every crowd there are some that are racist. You said “swarming”. What an overstatement. Grow up. The vast majority -almost all- are just fine. Well unless you are an Obamacon who sees racism under every rock.
No need for your games here. Go play with your PLEASANT friends at the DU or D-KOS.
Cannot get over it…SWARMING…. the OBAMACONS have a knack for lies and distortions.
Way to defend the conservative movement against cries of racism, Malkinites! Way to stand up for responsible conservative thought!
Apathy is the greatest evil. To see this racist garbage around you here, post after post, and say nothing is criminal.
Unless, of course, you agree with racism.

You saw some “disturbing” racist statements? Did you say anything? Call them out? why not?
No, really. Why?
Hmmm….Greek columns. Is St. Barry (PBUDB: people be under da bus) practicing what he’s preaching here? Re-use is better than recycling. Are these the Invesco Greek Columns of Barackopolis? Very fresh indeed. Perhaps we could get Robin Leach to tour some of the communities that Obamalamadingdong organized to compare the architecture with that of the good reverend’s humble abode…should be interesting! *out*
Just curious…since Jeremiah Wright is Barack Obama’s “former” pastor…
…who is Barack Obama’s “current” pastor?
Sure, he’s travelling all around the country, but when he needs guidance with a spiritual question these days, who does he call?
Watershed- you were not at all specific. You called no one out. Hypocrite.
Spread The Wealth Around
Watershed HOW MANY TIMES have you stood up against the SILLY cries of RACISM by the OBAMA camp against REPUBLICANS….MY GUESS NONE. Right?
Watershed…I tend to assume a lot of it is satire . I guess that reflects on myself and not being a racist. Hmm wonder what that says about you?
I’m against Wright and Obama for the same reasons I’m against Bill Ayers…and it has NOTHING to do with their skin color!
SWARMING Roflmao

You said you read “disturbing” things, why are you now backpedaling and saying it was just satire? You don’t have to be beholden to anyone here, go ahead and tell racists who they are.
I, for example, have called out the poster Rob as a pathetic racist. He said he wants to keep the WHITE HOUSE WHITE. He’s awful, and mocks me when I call him on it. He’s a really really dumb racist.
You should absolutely call out racist commentary on this site of you see it. It’s good for you, and everyone.

Watershed…Satire can be disturbing. You really could take a course in logic.
Again–please let me know when you have stood up against the outrageoust charges of racism (like yours) against Republicans? You overstated your case.
Fact
Oh and no need to double post
Folks,
Learn this, and remember this.
What the DemoNcrats accuse you of is that of which
THEY THEMSELVES ARE GUILTY!
The best defense is a good offense.
THEY are the ones being racist, but they accuse YOU of being racist!
It’s meant to put you on the defensive so that you can’t question them.
STOP FALLING FOR IT!
It gets even worse…they pre-emptively attack.
Why do you think they have been saying “BUSH=HITLER” for so many years?
It was a proactive attack meant to put Republicans on the defensive and diffuse any comparisons of Obama to the Fascist Dictator Checklist.
Why do you think they attacked Republicans with “9/11 was an inside job”?
It was a proactive attack meant to put Republicans on the defensive and prevent any questions about A Different “9/11 Truth”
I suggest that the next time a DemoNcrat attacks you with an absurd statement, turn it around and use it to question THEM.
Chances are, the shoe fits on their foot a whole lot better than it does on yours.
Watershed- I tend to think that a few people on a blog should worry you a whole lot less than a CAMPAIGN that attacks its enemies falsely as racist to stifle debate. But you and I know what you are about. Tool on.
This statement
sure there are a few comments that are disturbing but in every crowd there are some that are racist.
doesnt really jibe with-
I tend to assume a lot of it is satire.
You said quote there are racists unquote on this board. Call them out if you think so! Why don’t you?
I gave you examples of who I call out. I will continue to do so.
You apparently won’t. And you have no problem letting racists speak at your side on this site.
Apathy is the greatest evil.
A reminder…

Himself.
Watershed I did not say that I was sure anyone was being racist. Sure in any crowd you will find a racist.
Interesting you still have not presented any evidence that you have stood up against false charges of racism. I know your game…Read RED PILLS comments.
On another subject…did you stand up for the assault on Joe the Plumber. Bet you didn’t. Hypocrite.
Watershed .you must be an attorney…you sure do like to twist words. No please provide specific examples when you chastised the DEMS for attacking as racist those that dare oppose them . I will wait but I promise you I will not hold my breath. Tool on and wipe that koolaid of your chin.
Sorta like Murtha and western PA.
It’s called sarcasm and obsurdity. WE are sick of the charges of racism, when we are not the ones who perpetrate it and profit from it.
Such general statements like Watersheds are very much like racism.
Painting whole groups of people with a broad brush is just as bad as those Watershed purports to attack.
Regardless…. I thought judgmentalism was so like …yesterday.
Guess not if you are left of center.
Or in their corner.
This from a person who supports a candidate who sat in a racist church for 20 years, hangs with racists like Farakhan, and terrorists like Ayers etc,lol. Talk about apathy.
Too too funny…
We all should be worried. Look what they did to Joe the Plumber. You don’t think they won’t try that to us?
That house is big, but it sure is ugly.
There are a couple of earlier posts in this thread which have comments that are indeed lame attempts to be funny. If I saw a blatantly racist comment, you can be sure I would call it out. To complain to Michelle about racial attacks and to call this thread ‘proof positive’ of how others view this site as racist, is garbage. The term racist is thrown around on every site which has one single Obama detractor posting anything about the chosen ‘One’ and his apparent lack of executive experience, his birth certificate questions, his questionable choice in friends, etc. Nice smoke screen, but it does not fly. For anyone to question Wright’s living in high class digs while he “God Damns America” for its oppression of his fellow man is both reasonable and prudent. It shows that we recognize Wright as a hypocrite of the first order in that he is obviously not living proof of the America he holds in such low esteem. It would be like Bill Gates getting up and railing on and on about capitalism and its evils, while raking in billions of dollars in personal wealth thru the use of capitalism.
Hypocrites come in all colors. This one just happens to be a black man who does not practice or live what he preaches. Which makes him a good socialist Democrat. I could care less if he was green, he would still be a hypocritical hatemonger.
Folks, one night circa 1981, my sister and I were watching a movie. It was called KGOD. In one scene, they showed a preacher (honestly can’t remember if he was white or black so no I am not being racist here!). Anywho, the preacher was preaching to his flock, and said “GOD wants a Cadillac….and he wants to park it in MY driveway!!!” This is what I think of when thinking of Wright.
Jamson64, experience has taught me the same as you I’m sure, when the dems, leftists and or libs accuse you of something negative, you can be assured they’ve already done it or are doing it…never fails.
waterdrop,
As soon as you present someone from this site who measures up to – naw, scratch that – even said anything remotely like the wrong Rev wright and we will leave you alone. You continue to fling the racist word around here on several threads now and you just need to drop it (or go back to huffpo where you really belong – where hate abounds and you will fit right in).
The wrong Rev wright seems to be doing okay for himself serving
a po black manthe almighty green dollar.Sorry

watershed – Many people here have called Rob out for his excessive vulgarity, racism and nasty comments. Just not in the threads you are reading.
It does no good, just like responding to trolls like you does no good. It doesn’t stop the offensive behavior, it only antagonizes it. So I have learned to scroll right on past certain people’s posts. I have been scrolling right on past yours (although it is difficult) except the subject was brought up on another thread so I came back here to see what further had been said.
Now, why don’t you go clean up DU and Kos (your own back yard) before trying to clean up Michelle’s? Read the little ditty above the comments section. ‘Just because she lets something stand doesn’t mean she agrees with it.’
Some of us are here to discuss these issues, and not here to clean up after trolls from either side. It’s too time consuming. So we say something and then let… it… go.
Now I’m going to go back to scrolling past your garbage. Carry on…. because just like anyone around here, you’ll say what you’re going to say regardless of whether or not it’s welcome. That includes me.
Bravo Joy!!!
No, one more comment watershed…
The fact that you focus on Rob, instead of the topic of this thread, the incredibly vulgar, racist, race-baiting, nasty, vile man who calls himself a Reverend (Wright), points you out to be a RAAAAAAAAAAACIST hypocrite!!
K.. now I think I’m done.
(thanks Soap)
Pastor Jeremiah Wright: “Amerikkka been berry berry good to ME!”
LOL – YW
waterdrop got under your skin too I see!
Upper-Middle classness for me but not thee.
Ummm.. yeah, just a bit. I like your moniker for it, and laughed when I first saw it because wading through its posts is like Chinese water torture! Drip… drip… drip… drip… drip… drip… well, I can tell you already know.
Uh Oh.. I said ‘chinese’… I must be RAAAACIST!
Well said Joy
You’re full of crap. Where is this Keep the White House White comment. Ir wasn’t in this thread before you brought it up. Why are you still carrying around with you? Are you some bruised little thing that insists upon getting puffed up about every little thing? Hey, have you heard any black personalities talk about blackening the White House? I have. What do you make of that?
Do not try to inject racism into every discussion. That twaddle doesn’t work here. Go heal yourself, wounded bird.
Obviously there’s a lot of money to be made in hate.
The cry of racism has lost all meaning through overuse. If you want people to be outraged by truly racist remarks, then don’t sound the alarm for phony trumped-up charges like ‘Palin is wearing white – she’s a racist!’
The Left has become The Boy Who Cried Racism. And you know how that story ends.
Waterhead: Read the whole thread and couldn’t find the “racist” commentary you wept over. I suggest you find a rope and piss up it. Oooops, I said “rope.” Raaaaaaacist! I’m calling you out for being a low-life PC thug.
Hurry off to your Densa meeting.
Brave, brave waterhead!
He “calls out” posters on a blog. Oooooh. Brave warrior, Waterhead–cyberspace hall monitor.
This dump is right down the street from my house, and it’s not quite how it’s being reported.
First, it’s known as “Odyssey”, but it’s in Tinley Park. Some commenters have noted that Tinley Park is 97% white, but I’m almost certain Odyssey is at least 50% black. Across the street is Matteson, which is 62% black overall, but that neighborhood is 100% black.
It is an area of very large homes on a so-so public golf course, and it will deteriorate very quickly over the next ten years. It feeds schools that are all black and suck, and the taxes are horrendous. It is 20 years old, and there are dozens of lots that have never been sold or built, so they put up townhouses instead.
Across the street is the notorious plaza where some black guy murdered six women at a Lane Bryant store, coincidentally. Despite the fact that his photograph is all over America, and he is quite identifyable, the black people who obviously know him haven’t turned him in – after shooting six women in the head in a clothing store.
Talk about a community with a values problem. And there you are – Jeremiah Wright telling black people that whitey is their only problem.
My minister lives in a very modest home.
He should have left a McCain / Palin sign in the yard.
Hey turd for brains, do you eat Racist Bran cereal for breakfast everyday?
You must be on crack pal. I quickly read through this entire thread, and the only statements I saw were those that MOCKED Wright’s sickening racism.
I may have missed something but I don’t think so. And when something that clearly IS racist gets posted here, it is almost always called out and criticized. If a racist post doesn’t get called out, it’s not because we tolerate racism, its because it’s not our job to police every single post on this site. And it isn’t possible for Michelle Malkin to sit there and read every post either.
So get off your friggin’ high horse. If you want to fight racism, go to Pflegger’s church or one of Wright’s speeches and call them out on the racist crap that they spew. What? You aren’t willing to do that? I guess that means you’re a racist pig.
yes your post is ignorant, and offensive to me. what did falwell get exactly? hmm? other than the hatred of left-wingers?
Baker had a financial scandal, he didn’t preach hatred. to compare baker to wright is missing the point. to compare falwell to wright is ludicrous.
falwell didn’t ‘get’ anything. please.
Spoken like a true travliman. As with many of my former and present armed forces members on Michelle’s site who have been all over the world, most of us recognize that its not the color of the skin, but the attitude of the person.
I like to think that God made us all different so he could see how we treat someone who may not be of the same race, religion or country of origin.
Watercloset:
you have a lot to learn about what is racist…
Does anyone know if we can say black bear anymore?
Waterdrip, drip, drip….I rarely see a truly racist remark in any of the comments posted at MM on a wide variety of subjects, and if there is one, it is immediately cited and admonished. Most of my liberal “friends” say racist things on a regular basis, then deny it.
Rooster: With Obama, black_____ is not allowed any longer.
The cult of Obama is really just a fashion thing …. it’s “the new black”..
see, JOKING watercloset…
So much for being oppressed by ‘white folk’. There’s nothing like hearing a rich black person scream ‘racsim’.
Watershed,
Just curious. How do you feel about SNL opening with a 3 min skit Last week showing how White McCain is and using the slogan at the end. Vote McCain Keep the White House White!? Was it satire? or Racist?
And just to make it even, they had Biden in the same skit being a typical bafoon.
There’s racism in this thread? I did not see it. This is not the thread that I knew.
I just dropped into this thread and happened to notice that waterspout is again trying its race-baiting routine. It has done this on a couple other threads too. I see a pattern here. Don’t fall into the trap of the troll. It is trying to completely obliterate the object of the thread and has had ome success at it. It apparently is really hung up on the race issue. I suspect it is a minority with a chip on its shoulder. Please ignore it. Oh, if anyone is actually making real nasty racist comments, please stop. We are better than that. I haven’t had time to read all the comments, so I don’t know if that has happened. Just a cautionary note.
there is alot of tax free money in the preaching business. it isn’t a racial thing watershed (and jesus you will wear out the r-a-c-i-s-t keys on your keyboard if everytime you answer someone you accuse them of being a racist) because we all know an old white guy in rome living in a real castle with a museum of treasures in his castle. but this right reverand professes to be a man of the african people, yet lives like the white upper class he and obama aspire to.
Change you can believe in.
Does anyone else think that one of the priorities of an Obama Administration/Democrat (super-majority?) Congress will a formal apology and payment (by taxpayer money) of reparations for slavery?
–
Ignorance, our most costly commodity – paraphrased from Rush Limbaugh.
Looks like a false prophet to me. He is supposed to be preaching the Word and bringing people to God. Apparently, money is more important to him than serving God, and it looks like preaching hate pays much better than preaching the Word.
Very sad. This money could do so much if used in actual ministry. Think of the homeless shelters, the soup kitchens, or the multitude of other missions that could benefit from this money. Sadly, it looks like he is just taking the money (donated to the church) and living an extravagant lifestyle in his (tax-free) home. In what way is he living his life as a man of God?
