Part of me is indeed horrified by the remarks. Part of me wonders how much I should filter the comments through the lens of Black Liberation theology and try to get the context as Rev.Wright does.
We need an honest discussion on race and I'm concerned that his remarks and the incessant motion of the punditacry will increase the anger and resentment on all sides.

But I want to point out that Obama clearly repudiated the Reverend today. At this point, any question about any osmosis of thinking (and also if he's influenced by Islam) will be taken in the context that he has addressed it and has nothing to hide.

If we do need a discussion, somethings need to be left at the door...the sad thing about cityslickers, no matter what color of hide a person has race relations means black and white. Even if that is the root of the all the wrong that has happened in this country from the Lindberg baby to 9/11 the argument that the whiteman is at fault as a starting point isn't going to heal old wounds. Shoot, I was hoping that we could finally put it to rest this year, but I guess we'll have to wait longer.

I have yet to meet anyone that won't say that we haven't made mistakes but there comes a point where the thought of we have made progress, but what do we have to do move forward has got to be accepted if things are to change. Just beating up this nation isn't going to change anything, but what do I know I'm just a hick that fed up with Easterns trying to tell us we're racist when they would probably try to milk a bull or complain as they bled out rather than take care of the problem themselves.

Black liberation theology/movement has nothing to do with anything that the Reverend Wright is currently saying. He is an angry, narcissistic man who has been able to steal 15 minutes or more of fame, or perhaps infamy. This dude needs to have his mouth taped up. He has gone a long way to sinking the campaign of the first black candidate for president.

As is my usual practice, I am going to comment here first, and only afterward read what other people said here, so that I can think independently.

What I think we are witnessing here with the Reverend Jeremiah Wrong is a truly twisted, bizarre phenomenon.

First of all, the so-called Reverend Jeremiah Wrong is selfishly protecting his livelihood as a "Pity Me, I am an Oppressed Black" by doing all he can to recklessly destroy the Presidential bid of Barack Obama.

But now he is taken even that a step further, by now claiming that his pathetic attempts to protect his Black victimhood, makes him even more of a victim!

At this point, I think what the Reverend needs most is psychiatric medication. The man is obviously not well in that twisted mind of his.
