Sick politics.

(fast forward the video to 0:40)

This is truly appalling. When is that crazy church of Obama's going to stop raising hell (pun intended).

This time, it's not even that racist Rev. (if you can call him that) Jeremiah Wright. The church invited the father Michael Pfleger from Faith Community of St. Sabina in Chicago. He's white, but I think he'd rather not be.

Heres what he says:

"...honest enough to address the one who says, 'don't hold me responsible for
what my ancestors did. But you have enjoyed the benefits of what your ancestors
did. And unless you are ready to give up the benefits: throw away your 401 fund,
throw away your trust fund, throw away all the money that's been put away in the
company you walked into 'cause your daddy and your grandaddy and your
great-grand.... Unless you're willing to give up the benefits, then you must be
responsible for what was done in your generation because you are the beneficiary
of this insurance policy."

Sick, isn't it? It gets better.

"We must be honest enough to expose white entitlement and supremacy wherever it
raises its head. I've said it before, and I really don't want to make this
political, because you know I'm very unpolitical. But, when Hillary was crying,
and people said it was put on- I really don't believe it was put on. I really
believe she just always thought that 'this is mine. I'm Bill's wife, I'm white
and this is mine. I just gotta get up and step into the plate.' And then out of
nowhere came 'Hey, I'm Barack Obama.' And she said, 'Oh damn! Where did you come from? I'm white! I'm entitled! There's a black man stealing my show!' She wasn't the only one crying. There was a whole lot of white people crying!"

It makes me cringe everytime I watch the video. It's just so absurd the profanities coming out of this "man of God." (By the way, I'd like to know which god called him into the ministry because I don't want to serve that one.) According to this crazy-man, we (whites) are supposed to give up our luxuries and anything of worth passed down to us through the generations because of slavery and black oppression that existed hundreds of years ago. I'm sorry - I'm pretty sure I had nothing to do with that. Pfleger says we have to be responsible for what happened in our generation. Well, genius, it wasn't in ANY of our generations, except for maybe a few old senile senior citizens who don't even remember it.

And his comments regarding Hillary were just unnecessary and completely racist. If she feels that she is entitled because she's white, then whatever. But you can't just assume that. It's a very generalized racist statement toward ALL whites that is unfair.

And this guy is white! That's what is funny/sick about the whole thing.

Look - if you want to make comments regarding whites like that, thats totally fine. Just don't try to slap a discrimination lawsuit on someone when they say something slightly negative about blacks. That's all I ask.

Whites want Hillary

Kentucky exit polls show that race was a factor in Tuesday's primary, the Associated Press is reporting. One in five white voters said race influenced their vote - and about 90 percent of those voters supported Hillary.

Obama was winning the white vote in Oregon, which seemed to have race as a lesser factor in the decision-making of voters.

CNN senior political analyst David Gergen said Hillary should tell these "racists" that she does not want their vote.

Glad you're not her campaign manager, Davie.

Mr. Gergen is obviously a liberal who pro-equality. Which makes his following statement interesting.

"She and her husband both have, I think, well-earned reputations in the civil rights front," Gergen said. "She's never had redneck votes before in her life. I see no reason why she can't take the high road here in the closing days of this campaign."

Ahh. How very politically correct of Mr. Gergen. I find that hypocrites are hilarious. I laugh at them.

Obama has some crazy supporters

Never a dull moment in the world of politics.

Obama is mad at the media. Aww.

He is retorting to a recent Tennessee GOP ad that bashed his wife's statement: "for the first time in my adult lifetime, I am proud of America." Sick. Obama said that Michelle should not be a factor in the 2008 campaign.

I disagree.

First of all, there is the possibility (unfortunately, a pretty big one) that Michelle will be the next First Lady of the United States. That automatically makes her a factor in the presidential campaign - to me, anyway. Personally, I don't want a First Lady who hasn't been proud of her country for 20-some years. If you don't love America, leave.

Secondly, she has been campaigning hard-core for her husband, which she should be, of course. Any candidate's spouse would. (Refer to Mrs. Clinton, Bill.) But by putting herself out there through campaigning, she is also allowing herself to be vulnerable to scrutiny from not only the media, but American voters, in general.

But it gets better.

On a Fox News debate (get over it - I still watch Fox), a Democratic analyst (I forget his name) said the reason her statement has received so much criticism is a result of racism. Yeah, RACISM. Give me a bloody break. It's not because the woman is black, are you kidding me? It's because she implied that she had not been proud of her country for decades. Period. If the woman was white, red, purple or green, it would still be a big deal.

Here's a good example of racism, however. Barack and Michelle's ridiculous pastor Jeremiah Wright of Trinity United Church of Christ in Chicago called our beloved country the United States of White America and USofKKKA. I mean, really?

He also said the reason why people are "hating on Barack Obama" is because he doesn't fit the mold: he's not white, he's not rich and he's not privileged.

First - he's not white. His mother is a white American from Kansas, so if you want to get technical, he's just as much white as he is black.

Secondly - the Obama's 2008 tax return will show that they were about $9,000 short of $1 million gross income for the year. That's not well off? Give me a break. That's much more than the average American.(For Obama's home state of Illinois, the median income for federal fiscal year 2008 for a 4-person family was around $72,000)I think they're doing okay for themselves.

As for privileged, I guess that's up to personal interpretation of the term. I'm going to go with yes.

In conclusion, I say don't lay off his wife, as he has requested, unless by some chance she agrees to keep herself out of the campaign limelight. And as for racism, give me a break. You want equality, you can have it. Stop using the color of your skin to get what you want. We had a movement in the sixties that stopped whites from doing it - I figure it's about time for blacks and every other color to stop doing it, as well.
