Comments on: Obama's Ex-Pastor: I'm Not A Politician

Rev. Jeremiah Wright Tells NAACP Audience He's Not Divisive, He's "Descriptive"

[shortestfuse]

Rev. Jeremiah Wright claims he is not a politician. At least, no more than Rev. Jesse Jackson or Rev. Al Sharpton. All of these should replace Reverend with Irreverent (and Irrelevant would work in most cases as well).

Rev. Wright talks about "chickens coming home to roost". Well it is his chickens now that have come home to roost. His hateful bigoted words may cost the first black man in history running for the presidency to lose. He has accused millions of white people of being racist and now he is accused by millions of being racist. If you live by the sword you will die by the sword.

I''m having a real problem after listening to Mr. Descriptive as opposed to Mr. Divisive. Yes, he sure was descriptive and now I''m truly at a loss as to how I am, going forward, going to be able to relate to the Black Brotherhood.

According to this loon, you left brain, logic specific, objective learning, cantata loving, garlic noses who don''t know that Arabic is not a religion but a language -- hint hint, like the alphabet - (two variants of the Phoenician alphabet would have major impacts on the history of writing: the Aramaic alphabet which, excuse me, is rooted in Arabic and the Greek alphabet) - wink, wink Wright who can''t make any logical connections because ... blacks are right brained, art specific, subjective learning, common meter loving, non religious speaking people.

And now I''m relegated to speaking only to left brain, logic specific, objective learning, cantata loving, garlic noses as blacks are simply relegated to speaking only to right brained, art specific, subjective learning, common meter loving, non religious speaking people.

I''m not trying to be divisive, I''m just trying to be descriptive, therefore I can no longer talk to my black brothers as they can no longer relate to us. See, now that''s where the problem has been all along and I want to thank Rev. Wright for pointing out to us that our problems stem from the fact that we all only use half our heads. Thanks. I really appreciate it.

so it would be a good move for obama to accept his endorsement now then?

With some more time, and possibly more prominent speeches, Rev. Wright could gain more understanding. But for now, accepting an endorsement from him may be premature for Obama. Keeping his distance from Rev. Wright (for now) would be the wise thing to do. There are millions of ignorant Americans to educate regarding Rev. Wright''s beliefs and the ways he conducts his sermons.

And I emphasize to "educate", not to convince people to agree with everything Wright has to say, but merely understand from his point of view.

I feel that NO one should preach hate under any race or excuse. I wonder how people would feel if McCain went to a church that only preached about how bad the African American community and America was. There should be no excuse for ANYONE, regardless of race, to defend hate. Obama attended this church for decades!! If McCain attended a Klan meeting even once, he would be hung out to dry and would never, never be defended. The Klan also defends their beliefs under the lie of teaching the scriptures of Jesus.

I''''ve invented a new game. It''''s called "Sean Zonk". Here''''s how it works...

Watch the "Hannity and Colmbes" show on TV. Every time Sean says "Jeremiah Wright", you have to drink. Every time he says "Ailes", you have to do a bong.

I guarantee you, if you play every night, you WILL flunk out of college!
