Four clips from Bill Moyers’ interview with Reverend Jeremiah Wright.

For more: http://www.pbs.org/moyers/journal/04252008/profile.html Bill Moyers interviews the Reverend Jeremiah Wright in his first broadcast interview with a journalist since he became embroiled in a controversy for his remarks and his relationship with Barack Obama. Wright, who retired in early 2008 as pastor of Trinity United Church of Christ in Chicago, where Senator Obama is a member, has been at the center of controversy for comments he made during sermons, which surfaced in the press in March.

Take note of the third and fourth clips. “He says what he has to say as a politician. … He responded as a politician.” This, of course, is no surprise to me. It was and is patently obvious that Barack Obama merely says what “he has to say as a politician” in order to get votes. It has no bearing whatsoever on what he obviously believes.

By the way, Rev. Wright - we may not be experts in Black Liberation Theology and Dr. James Cone, but by now I think most serious people who have complaints HAVE done research into what it’s about. It isn’t just heresy, it’s hateful, anti-American, divisive, Marxist heresy. We don’t want a divisive President who’s full of hate and anti-American Marxist ideology, especially one who lies about it.

Tom Blumer reports on Barack Obama and Jeremiah Wright at Pajamas Media in a piece called “What did Obama Know About Wright and When Did He Know It?”

Barack Obama has denied hearing hateful rhetoric from his pastor of 20 years. An ongoing PJM investigation finds that there is much evidence indicating that the junior senator from Illinois is not being entirely truthful.

“Not entirely truthful,” to say the least. Barack Obama is going to have to answer for it, whether he completely repudiates it or owns up to it. Pretending he “didn’t know” about the black liberation theology preached by Jeremiah Wright (and Otis Moss) isn’t going to cut it.

Barack Obama had nothing but praise and adulation for his racist minister, The Reverend Jeremiah Wright until he got trapped like a rat and had to come out and disavow what his close friend and mentor of twenty years has been preaching from his pulpit. The hate spewed from this man’s mouth is nothing short of shocking and astonishing.

Barack’s window of opportunity to deal with this crisis in his campaign came and went without a peep from the presidential contender. Then, seemingly quite reluctantly, Barack came out to be grilled on his association with the hate monger Jeremiah Wright. Barack’s weak and unconvincing argument that he happened to not be sitting in the congregation on the days that the Reverend decided to rant on and on about the evils of the white race and the importance of separatism, segregation and keeping the black race forever in a state of victimization strained credibility to say the least. It would seem, from Barack’s words, that the only two times that Jeremiah Wright said such hateful things happened to be the two times that Barack skipped church.

I don’t know. It looked to me that the song and dance of Jeremiah Wright was very well practiced and was pretty much his mode of operation. Who knows, maybe it just happened that those isolated instances of hate-filled speech just happened to be the times it was caught on tape and just happened to be the times that Barack Obama wasn’t at church.

Do you believe him? Or is Barack just too cowardly to own up to his own culpability? Maybe Barack just thinks we are all just that stupid.

Newsbusters reports that in spite of Barack’s claims that he hardly knew what Jeremiah Wright was preaching, he was actually quite close to the man. (well, DUH!)

This video comes from Little Green Footballs and it looks like YouTube was reluctant to carry it. You know how it is. The main stream media knows better than us what we should and shouldn’t hear and see.
