Dude, what is your point?
It's really straight forward, if you read the post. Cone taught Wright and Wright preached his brand of hatred and racism to Obama ( along w/ the rest of his congregation ) That Obama, who could chose any Church he wished, would decide to stick w/ this race baiting kook is all the more telling of Mr. Obma.
To put it in perspective, Cone is the Sith Lord to Wright's apprenticeship, and Obama is the apprentice to Sith Lord Wright.
Got it?

Sarge: Obviously racism is alive and well in the USA.
What I heard Obama say is that resentment on all sides of the black/ white/ brown/ yellow divide is real, with real reasons behind it. But if we fight racially over ever-diminishing opportunities, the real reasons for our crumbling schools, dysfunctional healthcare, and disappearing jobs will laugh all the way to the bank.
Up until then I thought Obama was just an empty suit, but at that point he got my vote.
We've got to MOVE ON, people, and start making real changes instead of fighting over crap that's 200 years old!

"Don't let anybody make you think that God chose America as His divine messianic force to be -- a sort of policeman of the whole world. God has a way of standing before the nations with judgment, and it seems that I can hear God saying to America: 'You are too arrogant! If you don't change your ways, I will rise up and break the backbone of your power"" - Martin Luther King
i dont know specifically the reverend Wrights views, whether his theology is consistent with what i know of the bible.. but i will say that Dr. Kings speech rings very true to me. now im not sure whether their is underlying racial bias involved in Mr. Wrights beliefs, or the so called "black liberation theology", but this is a lesson every church should learn, since its implicit in almost every aspect of Jesus' messages

Problem is, Bush isn't a fascist, nor was his father, so your whole silly argument has no legs to it.

How is that racist? A bit daft, maybe, but there's some truth to it. Seems to be more like dueling preachers than anything, trying to out shout each other rather than sticking to the word of God.
Sad, in either case.

So, if I was to claim that Obama isn't a racist, and neither was his pastor, then "your whole silly argument" would suddenly fall apart?
See, your OPINION is that Bush isn't a fascist. There are several million people out there who would disagree with that opinion. You feel that Bush isn't a fascist, and that Obama is a racist. Obviously, others could feel completely the opposite, and both viewpoints would be equally valid to those who held them - and ironically, neither would be completely right or completely wrong!
You can say you don't like Obama for his racist leanings, and Bush's detractors can as easily say that they don't like Bush and his supporters for their fascist leanings. And BOTH be correct in their assessments, at least somewhat.

I’m not an advocate of the belief that terms like “racism” and “fascism” are defined on popular opinion. If that were the case, then anyone would be a fascist or a racist, simply because enough people didn’t agree with them. Rev. Wright is not a racist because people don’t agree with him. He is a racist because one of the accepted definitions of racism, prejudice or animosity against people who belong to another race, fits opinions he has clearly advocated. Fascism has a definition too. Fascism is an ideology that favors dictatorial government, centralized control of private enterprise, repression of all opposition and extreme nationalism. Nothing Bush has ever said or done could honestly be construed as meeting these criteria. Just because people like Signym don’t agree with his policies doesn’t make him a fascist. In order for Bush to be a fascist he must meet this definition regardless of how popular opinion views him.
Nihil est incertius vulgo, nihil obscurius voluntate hominum, nihil fallacius ratione tota comitiorum.
Nothing is more unpredictable than the mob, nothing more obscure than public opinion, nothing more deceptive than the whole political system.
