The very worst of Wright
At least, I hope it's the worst. Driving home this evening, I heard on the radio, about a part of Wright's sermon that was so disgusting it could not be played - sexually vile - referencing the Clintons. Something about Hillary F&@$ing America the way Bill did Monica.

Anyone know about this?

1. Did he actually use the "F" word?
In church? This is something new.

I wonder how many sermons are out there? I wonder how many sermons Fox News has handed over to the RNC?.... ones we don't even know about. :(

2. I don't know
Edited on Fri Mar-14-08 04:12 AM by dancingAlone
if he actually used the F word in the sermon. What I heard were the talk show hosts discussing the content of what they didn't or couldn't(?) play on the air. It was very offensive but that was their take on it. I would like to hear it for myself.

3. They don't have to "hand them over" to the RNC. If they play them just once
on the air, on the radio, online, they become public domain and all that's needed is a tiny attributive tag.

4. I read that one can buy 10 sermons for 100 bucks and that Fox had
purchased them. I'm sure the RNC bought a goody bag too

5. On MSNBC they showed a clip where Wright was gyrating and humping his hips
and saying Hillary was f#$$ing America the way bill did Monica. My grandchildren live next door and came over about that time, I had to hurry and change the channel it was so totally disgusting. They panned the congregation and their were children in the audience when he was doing this. This is not good for Obama know matter how his supporters try to spin this.

6. Can you imagine Obama sitting there listing to all those hate sermons
And now he is running for president. If this is Obama's foundation for his beliefs and obviously it is because of there connection and he has been attending this church for 20 years, it kind of worries me how Obama would run the country.

8. Yes it worries me too. At first I was warming up for a unity ticket.
Not now, I don't want to have him anywhere next to Hillary.

10. That's my main concern. You can't attend weekly sermons like these for 20 yrs. and not take it in.

12. elixir, I'm afraid it's a little late for Hillary to get enough seated delegates
Because it will change some voters minds but not all, at least at first. Second, if you haven't seen, Obama made a statement to the media yesterday evening he will refuse a revote in FL/MI. That said, he will have more delegates. It's not fair and as such I have plans for my state (florida). You know this guy Wright is scary and I'm sure much of it has sunk in to Obama's brain over the past 20 years. At this point I was beginning to think it wouldn't be so bad if Obama were the nominee but after hearing these sermons and then I did a google of "Obama and racism", and there were tons of stuff. One article in particular, a two part article talked about the Obama family. It listed lots of statements made by BO and MO that were racists remarks. That said, I hope folks are making plans for the fall GE.

14. If she wins the popular vote the superdelegates will go to her
However she needs at least one of the two to have a revote. It looks like Michigan is on its way. Let's suppose Obama blocks a revote. Then morally the votes from Florida on 1/29 when Hill won by 300,000 would count, as well as a projected win in Michigan. I am sure superdelegates would take that into account of Obama the representative of the undemocratic wing of the Democratic party decides to go the Katherine Harris route.

15. jackson_dem, I sure as hell am really worried
It looks like Obama has thrown up a road block yesterday for MI/FL. I called Thurman's office this morning and said, if our votes don't count, expect a protest vote from many floridians for a 3rd party candidate.

21. Then he will be condemned if he can be linked to disenfranchisement
Hill will have a strong moral case under that scenario to count FL. MI is what will be tough.

16. So you actually saw and heard it?
He did use the F word? I had heard about the gyrating and humping too. Is all this true? And if it is, why is it not all over the news? I don't get it. How can an honorable democratic woman and a former president be spoken of this way? I'm just so angry right now. Again.

the words but you can still figure out what was said.

23. Here is the vid clip
Edited on Fri Mar-14-08 09:08 PM by dancingAlone
A little different from the discussion I heard on the radio but disgusting, nevertheless.

http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-632402472860811986

It's about half way into the clip.

My edit was to add the link I forgot to include.

27. Revolting man, revolting language and metaphor. This in a church?
You really see where Mrs O gets inspiration to express such ideas.

Thank you (I think) for sharing the video.
