  • Joan is "typical white person"

    [Read the article: I was wrong about Wright]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    I am not supprised that Joan's doesn't think he should mock LBJ and JFK. Evidently she just wants to ignore the point he was making. White people believe they are the standard. He was saying that stance is flawed. He was saying many white people don't speak so-called correct English but they put down and grade blacks lower for the way we speak.

    He used those Presidents as examples of the way whites will lift up their own even with their speaking deficiencies but put down blacks. It is amazing how white people say Bush is speaking straight when he mangles sentences. They can understand him but Barack is ridiculed as an elitist because he went to Harvard. This it the hypocrisy that this angry black man is trying to make and what he has being trying to expose. Your continued focus on his has given him the world stage to bring out the hatred and contempt America and especially so-called liberals like Joan have for black people.

    What will America Do?

    The quesiton is not what will Barack do but what will America do? All Barack has to do is stay close. Then it is going to come down to the mostly white super delegates.

    Then White America is now going to either live up to the greatest hopes of the Founding Fathers or fall into the depths of there greatest weakness. Barack's candidacy is going to make whites choose their fears or their hopes.

    This is great. It will expose this country for either being the most racist country on the planet or one that provides hope to the world. So for all the Lolcaits, Texasgirls,Chris McNeils,Joans and other haters of Barack go ahead and vote for Hillary or McCain because the world is watching and the world is going to judge.

    America won't have any say on issues of human rights anymore because the world is going to say you don't even live by your own rules of fair play. They are going to say blacks cannot disagree with white people without retribution.

    China is going to say you handle your black problem the way you want and we will handle the Tabetians the way we want. North Korea is going to say to hell with what you say. We will handle our enemies the way we want and you handle your blacks the way you want. Israel and the Palestinians will say to hell with what America thinks you have no right to tell us anything when you don't treat people in your own country by the same rules. In effect they will say "get the board out your own eyes before you try to get the spinter out of mind." I love it. America's hatred as during the civils rights movement is going to be put on a world stage this November. America's charecter is going to get judge. If it choses it's fear "Old things are going to pass away and all things will become new." Understand the bible says "the first shall be last and the last shall be first." Other countries are going to start standing up to America and their will be to many to fight.

    You did not like what Rev. Wright said because black men in this country are not suppose to be angry. We are suppose to be happy for all the things good white people have done for us. Rev. Wright is ungrateful, uppity,and someone needs to pay for his crimes of saying such bad things. Since you can't punish Rev. Wright you and others will not vote for Barack.

    Now understand the greatest anti-america act by a American was not Rev. Wright but Tim McVigh's bombing of a government building in Oklahoma but we don't have any national rememberance of that act. But we do celebrate the O.J. Simpson trial every teen years because like Rev. Wright who now will become the symbol of Anti-Americanism, O.J. is the symbol of domestic violence. We don't know of any memebers of Trinty (Rev. Wright's church) ever bombing an abortion clinic killing doctors and innocent by-standers but it is LIberation Theology and not religious Right theology that is the poster child of anti-christian. We know that memebers of Rev. Wright's church have voted for Clinton/Gore-Gore/Libermann-Kerry/Edwards and other white presidential candidates but white people for years have voted for only white males in the house and senate but it is Wright and blacks that are the poster children for racism in America.

    I love it. Go right ahead and vote for McCain. I believe that is what Wright wants you white folks to do. He wants to expose your hatred of black people for the world to see. Your vote will prove him right. And all the our enemies and even some friends of America are going to say they are liars and are not true to their own Constitution or Bill of Rights.

    Go ahead and make Jerimiah Wright a true Prophet. You see he is counting on you to vote your fears over your "bitterness" of the economy, Iraq,immigration,gas, education and health care. Rev. Wright is saying Loud and Clear I Expect you to vote McCain because you would rather plunge into a worst economy and war then vote for a black man. Rev. Wright is betting on it.
