		<description><![CDATA[Although Barack-o has moved the goal post, this story has legs enough to follow him anywhere.

His racist, anti-American church affiliation is not new. However, certain parts of the MSM decided at this time they were interested in sharing this story with their audience. That is the real news.

A decision was made to call Barack on his affiliation. Before the Pennsylvania election. Maybe Barack-o did not please someone high up the MSM ladder.

Maybe his assistant should have not beaten up Geraldine Ferraro for so much less 

Or it was timed to have him spend all his good-will. Wring it out. And then wipe the deck with him. For sure the creeping scurvy of this hate bomb will fester like an incubated virus. Look at how the black community reacts to the N-word. The non-black community has a pretty good aversion to G-d D--n America. 

Once you hear it, you don&#039;t forget it. Telling me you can&#039;t hurt the guy&#039;s feelings by avoiding the hate sessions is incendiary. Why hurt Hitler or Mussolini? They are old men and cannot change. They baptized my children.

I saw Hillary has gained 6 additional points lead in PA.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[You know, I (and every other reasonable American) can think of a rebuttal to every one of Obama&#039;s points.  He is basically denying the reality of a Colin Powell or my own boss, an AFrican American.  Successful loving black people are anomalies or worse. 

And when it comes to race, why do black hustlers, like Obama--who I also liked but now do not respect one bit--or Sharpton, always recommend understanding and &quot;conversation&quot; when it comes to race?  Why don&#039;t they go down to the Trinity pulpit and tell the congregation that what they have been preaching is wrong, and that OJ is guilty, that AIDS is spread by sexual activity, and that America is your mother and your father, and you should make your peace with it before you throw away your life in bitterness.


BTW your posts have been brilliant, Allah.]]></description>

I see I&#039;m in good company, AP.  You expressed my feelings exactly.  I disagreed vehemently with BHO, but had respect and even admiration for him.  Not any more.

&lt;blockquote&gt;Obama: &quot;Fire Imus&quot;

Obama, The First White House Contender to Call for Imus&#039; Firing Over Racial Slur

&quot;I understand MSNBC has suspended Mr. Imus,&quot; Obama told ABC News, &quot;but I would also say that there&#039;s nobody on my staff who would still be working for me if they made a comment like that about anybody of any ethnic group. And I would hope that NBC ends up having that same attitude.&quot;&lt;/blockquote&gt;]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Illegal Alien Social Services Cost LA County Over $36 Million
Posted by: The Watchdog in Taxes 
Hometown Station

New statistics from the Department of Public Social Services reveal that illegal aliens and their families in Los Angeles County collected over $36 million in welfare and food stamp allocations in January 2008, announced Los Angeles County Supervisor Michael D. Antonovich.

Twenty five percent of the all welfare and food stamps benefits are going directly to the children of illegal aliens. Illegals collected over $19 million in welfare assistance for January 2008 and over $16 million in monthly food stamp allocations, for a projected annual cost of $420 million.

“Illegal immigration continues to have a devastating impact Los Angeles County taxpayers,” said Antonovich. “With $220 million for public safety, $400 million for healthcare, and $420 million in welfare allocations, the total cost for illegal immigrants to County taxpayers far exceeds $1 billion a year – not including the millions of dollars for education.”

As for the speech? One 60&#039;s radical making excuses for another one is insulting to 80% of us Americans, since the Civil Rights Act of 1964, have already moved ahead and don&#039;t need to be lectured about race by these Radicals attempting to &quot;gauze&quot; up the impact of their hate speech.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The key thing everyone is missing is that there were so many people out there saying, &quot;What&#039;s wrong with what Rev. Wright is saying?&quot;  Those are the people supporting Obama, the ones who don&#039;t disagree with Wright, and he just insulted them without throwing anyone under the bus, and they liked it, while at the same time, shifting the issue from &quot;hate America&quot; to &quot;We of all races should come together&quot;

&lt;strong&gt;wouldn&#039;t all the remarks defending Wright also apply to Farakken?&lt;/strong&gt;

Why not? And if not whats the difference? Is hate from a christian more acceptable then hate from a muslim? I don&#039;t think so, but the left wing media does? How do these people correlate their own belief systems with themselves everyday without their heads exploding? Are they...Islamophobes....?

Call lefty that and see what they say...&lt;em&gt;hypocrites&lt;/em&gt;]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Barking Barak does not cure the fact his association with and seeking the solace of a racist Black priest, who was part of the Screwy Lewy, and Malcom X-ray trilogy.

While his (Barking Barak) rhetoric was ample his actions do not show a true resentment or repentance of the 3 Stooges (Wright, Maclom, and Screwy Lewey) teachings.  I does show he can make his wife cry on cue like Hitlery.

I have been to several &quot;Come to Jesus Meetings&quot; and it the only thing religious about the meeting is evoking the word of our Lord to justify their spewing &#039;Hate Speech&#039; and to be paid for it via the &quot;pass the plate&quot; and feel great rhetoric.]]></description>

Barack, I was a civil rights worker… South Carolina, 1966… 22 yrs old … helping old folks register to vote, teaching kids to read and write, directing Raisin in the Sun…

Barack, I didn’t do it for this.

Barack, I dream of my kindergarten best friend Andy from Walden School, Manhattan, born one day after me, shot dead in Mississippi 1964.

Barack, I idolized Stokley Carmichael and the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee.

Barack, I lost the full use of my left hand for life in South Carolina.

Barack, I didn’t do it for this.

Barack, I gave hundreds to the Black Panthers for their children’s breakfast program when I was 25 and a young screenwriter in Echo Park, Los Angeles, even though I knew Huey was crazy and was worried my money might have been going for guns, even though I had my own children in the house when the Panthers came over, their jackets bulging.

Barack, I made excuses for the Black Power Movement even though I knew it was turning racist.

Barack, I didn’t do it for this.

Barack, your speech was bullshit.

Barack, this isn’t about generations.

Barack, this isn’t about the black church.

Barack, this is about a pathological minister whose uncontrolled anger wounds his own people and keeps them down.

Barack, this is about a man who ignored that rage for his own political gain and even now won’t admit a huge mistake and looks for nuance and excuses.

Barack, this about a woman who went on scholarship to Princeton and Harvard and still hates America.

Barack, you say you want Black-Jewish reconciliation but you hung with an anti-Semite.

Barack, I didn’t do it for this.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[So, by slavery we are all condemned, as a group and as individuals, even if we haven’t committed any actual sin. And slavery is a curse that will never, ever go away. Even if one generation manages to purge themselves of it; fight a war, suffer through reconstruction, amend the Constitution, support a Civil Rights Movement, etc., the next will have to do it again. Each individual stained with a sin that isn’t theirs and unable to be rid of it without forgiveness from the one whom was offended.

And, apparently, nothing is ever going to ever change this. Nothing. Never, ever, ever.

		<description><![CDATA[All the fawning MSM mouth pieces who fell for the uber lib talking points disguised as a conversation on race fail to mention that Obama thew up lofty visions and inaccurate stereotypical slights to invoke guilt on his audience and sympathy for him.

Delivered like a 6th grade history report on the evils of whites against blacks in the US of KKK A, he once again, failed to offer any solutions to this problems, but you can bet the rent it will include more/higher taxes, punish whitey, and more handouts to the hallowed &quot;black community&quot;]]></description>

Regarding the &quot;original sin&quot; concept: ver-r-y interesting thought.  

I would amend that to &quot;each white person is guilty of a sin he didn&#039;t commit &amp; will remain guilty until descendants of the sinned-against, all their extended family in the ancestral homeland, and generally speaking all non-whites in the third world feel they&#039;ve finally gotten their fair share as reparations and agree to absolve him of his guilt.  (And that won&#039;t happen because it&#039;s very convenient to have a bunch of guilty rich whites looking for absolution.)&quot;

I especially liked the &quot;And, apparently, nothing is ever going to ever change this. Nothing. Never, ever, ever.&quot;  That&#039;s certainly how I&#039;ve begun to feel:  when do we get to stop being blamed for slavery, for racism, for all the evils of the world?]]></description>
