HA! Ha! Hahahahahahahahahaha! Ha! ... Whoa, chirrens ... ! Great googly-woogly! Looka hear ... Ol' 'Reverend' Jerry Wright, he of 'Black Liberation Theology' (say 'Marxist-inspired') fame', is now complainin' that his erstwhile 'protege', 'The ONE', threw him "under the bus" and that he's now "radioactive" ... Well hell, son, didn't you learn ANYthing about the way Communists and 'progressives' operate from watchin' their OTHER operations around the world? How many Viet Cong, for example, were kept around after the NVA overran S. Viet Nam, Republic of ...? How many 'Red Guard' members did 'The Chairman' keep around after the 'Great Cultural Revolution' was over? How many who followed Pol Pot's orders and created Cambodia's 'killing fields' are still around now? Wright's lucky. He's still alive. Quitcherbitchin' and be thankful he hasn't silenced you permanently. Now he knows first-hand the meaning of the term 'useful idiot'. He's outlived his 'usefulness'.

If Obama HAD thrown him under the bus in the 'literal' sense as Wright says (incorrectly, as usual), he'd be dead now. Pity he can't differentiate between 'literal' and 'figurative' ... and he's someone in a position of influence. Is there a reason we shouldn't be scared?

Ex-Obama pastor: 'Obama threw me under the bus'

May 18, 4:11 AM (ET)

By LARRY NEUMEISTER

NEW YORK (AP) - The Rev. Jeremiah Wright, Barack Obama's controversial former pastor, said in a letter obtained by The Associated Press that he is "toxic" to the Obama administration and that the president "threw me under the bus."

In his strongest language to date about the administration's 2-year-old rift with the Chicago pastor, Wright told a group raising money for African relief that his pleas to release frozen funds for use in earthquake-ravaged Haiti would likely be ignored.

"No one in the Obama administration will respond to me, listen to me, talk to me or read anything that I write to them. I am 'toxic' in terms of the Obama administration," Wright wrote the president of Africa 6000 International earlier this year.

"I am 'radioactive,' Sir. When Obama threw me under the bus, he threw me under the bus literally!" he wrote. "Any advice that I offer is going to be taken as something to be avoided. Please understand that!"

The White House didn't respond to requests for comment Monday about Wright's remarks. Several phone messages left by the AP for Wright at the Trinity United Church of Christ, where he is listed as a pastor emeritus, were not returned. Wright's spokeswoman, his daughter Jeri Wright, did not immediately comment on the substance of the letter.

Then-Sen. Obama cut ties with Wright when his more incendiary remarks became an Internet sensation in the spring of 2008. At a National Press Club appearance in April 2008, he claimed the U.S. government could plant AIDS in the black community, praised Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan and suggested Obama was putting his pastor at arm's length for political purposes while privately agreeing with him.

Obama denounced Wright as "divisive and destructive" and later cut ties to the pastor altogether and left Wright's church.

The sermon was about Governments changing and God remaining the same,,it was comparing a government of biblical times to governments of modern times, the quote was actually "GD America AS LONG as she tries to act like she is God and she is supreme'

So, Actually, the Lords name was used in a sermon where it was relevant,, .the context of which in no way dishonored Him or His character, which is hardly in vain.......but everyone's entitled to their perceptions


the media took snippets of two sermons out of thousands the Reverend gave,,out of context, and sensationalized them,,but that is the nature of media,,,,,,,The Reverend is not without responsibility or beyond accountability for what he says in the pulpit and I dont agree with all points made, but my opinion was that it was shown WAY out of context and used as some indirect assassination on OBamas character(as if two specific sermons out of thousands HAD to be two which OBama attended or agreed with)

as to the OP, I think OBama did the only thing he could do given the Pastors choice to fuel controversy after the beautiful red white and blue speech and interview OBama gave originally. It was the Pastor (who didnt think of how he was affecting OBama's public perception) who pretty much put himself in the position he is in.

People get the Obama / Wright 'relationship' so screwed up ... they assume that 'The ONE' was in the pews for 20 years as a 'congregant' ... nuh-unh ... he was there as a MONITOR to make sure 'Uncle Jerry' was gettin' the message out correctly to the mind-numbed masses in 'attendance' ... he was the TEACHER, not the pupil ...

Then you can also imagine the Dalai Lama being selected for his role at the age of seven ... age and experience (esp. military) is not the determining factor for someone who's 'selected' before he's 'elected' ... it's about ideology - the only qualification for that is a willingness to be ruthless. He's got that down cold.

a religious leader and a political leader are apples and oranges in comparison......a religious leader is not lead by children in any 'christian' society that I know of and certainly not in the baptist religion with which the Reverend Wright is affiliated.

Ole Reverend Wright.

Old news and already hashed to death.

His sermon was obviously not so offensive that it caused the president to lose his election which shows that it wasn't what the hatemongering folks would have passed it off to be.

The naïvete (or just dissociation) present in that comment is unbelievable ... Religion and politics are different sides of the same coin: Reward and punishment. Or, if you prefer, promise and payoff. Politics creates the problems that religion claims to solve. If one of the two didn't exist, we'd need to invent it. Yin. Yang. Foil. Counterfoil. Thrust. Parry. They only wear different costumes - their mission is the same. Power. Money. Control. Makes no diff if the 'religion' is 'christian / buddhist / muzzie / jewish / zoroastrian' or anything in between.

If you think 'Rev.' Wright's 'religion' is 'baptist', that's a serious delusion, since he's self-acknowledged as a 'preacher' of 'black liberation theology', an essentially MARXIST trope, and a racist ideology founded by James Cone in 1970, so it's not one of the world's long-standing 'religious traditions'. It's a political movement POSING as 'religion'. Here's a quote from Cones defining his 'founding father' view about precisely WHAT constitutes 'black liberation theology':

"Black Liberation Theology refuses to accept a God who is not identified totally with the goals of the Black community. If God is not for us and against White people, then he is a murderer and we had better kill him (God). Black theology will accept only the love of God which participates in the destruction of the White enemy. What we need is the Divine love expressed in Black power. Which is the power of Black people to destroy their oppressors here and now by any means at their disposal. Unless God is participating in this holy activity we must reject his love."

THAT's what 'Rev.' Wright is preaching - still want to try convincing people Wright's a BAPTIST 'preacher' ... ? That ain't gonna wash ... he's a racist and a hater, just like 'The ONE' who sat and monitored Uncle Jerry's 'message' for twenty years - until it became 'inconvenient' to be seen with him and he had to cancel his 'useful idiot' privileges.

and where is the evidence of any religious hierarchy obtained by OBama in his twenties? ,,,none, nonsense,

Wright was raised by Baptists,, and that does not necessarily make him a Baptist preacher, but he was indeed pastor of a christian church(which teaches to guide children, not vice versa)

Wright also didnt preach to hate whites,, so that comparison didnt wash either.

The evidence simply destroys your argument. Wright is NOT a 'baptist' - he's a racist. He doesn't preach 'religion' - he preaches hatred. 'The ONE', using the political principles employed by every 'progressive', determined that the 'useful idiot' in this particular instance had served its purpose, it needed to be done away with. Wright outlived his shelf life and had to go. 'The ONE' merely did what Marxism dictates he had to do.
