What a shock.
A new video has surfaced showing Barack Obama’s pastor and mentor praising Marxism and discussing his ties to communists in El Salvador and Nicaragua and the Libyan government.
This speech by Wright was on September 17th of THIS YEAR.
Via Breitbart
Once again… Thank you state-run media for vetting the radical candidate Obama.
Accuracy in Media reported on Rev. Jeremiah G-D AmeriKKKa Wright’s speech from the September 17, 2009, anniversary celebration of Monthly Review,
Wright is being introduced in the video by Robert W. McChesney, co-founder of Free Press, an organization which has come under scrutiny for its links to the Obama Administration and dedication to the transformation and control of the private media in the U.S.
In an article in the socialist Monthly Review, “Journalism, Democracy, and Class Struggle,” McChesney declared, “Our job is to make media reform part of our broader struggle for democracy, social justice, and, dare we say it, socialism.”
In the video, which captures Wright’s appearance at a September 17, 2009, anniversary celebration of Monthly Review, Wright said that while the “corporate media” provide a “binary lens” of the world, in such terms as “communist versus Christian,” Monthly Review offers what it calls “no-nonsense Marxism.”
He added: “You dispel all the negative images we have been programmed to conjure up with just the mention of that word socialism or Marxism.”
He called America “land of the greed and home of the slave.”
…he went into more detail about his own personal and political philosophy. He said that “My work with liberation theology, with Latin American theologians, with the Black Theology Project and with the Cuban Council of Churches taught me 30 years ago the importance of Marx and the Marxist analysis of the social realities of the vulnerable and the oppressed who were trying desperately to break free of the political economics undergirded by this country that were choking them and cutting off any hope of a possible future where all of the people would benefit.”
He said that his “exposure to the FMLN in El Salvador, the Sandinistas in Nicaragua, and my presence at the 15th Jamahiriya in Libya taught me what I have read in the pages of the Monthly Review which is, as Joshua Stanton says, though we need not always agree with one another we must do the work necessary to at least understand one another.”
There is much more at AIM.

Rev. Wright has stated that his brand of Black Liberation Theology is derived from the writings of James Cone, a nutcase who wrote that Whites are inferior to Blacks but that if Whites are good enough they can be reincarnated as Blacks.
gus commented:
Yes but Jeremiah Wright was not like that when Obama knew him. Neither was Van Jones, or Kevin Jennings or Sustein or Sebelius or Dunn or …….
See a pattern?
3 words.
Frank Marshall Davis.
Obama has ALWAYS been a MARXIST.
To think otherwise is silly.
Rosemary Woodhouse commented:
No news here. The evidence that Wright is a Marxist and that Zero sat in his “church” for 20 years was available prior to the election.
The evidence that Zero has and continues to associate with Marxists while sitting as president abounds.
The blame lies squarely with those who voted for CHANGE without ever asking what CHANGE meant.
It is clear to all that the CHANGE he sought and continues to seek is from a Constitutional Republic- the last bastion of freedom- to yet another Marxist dystopia!
Gregory of Yardale commented:
Chairman Zero sat in this guy’s church for twenty years and he claims he had no idea how radical Reverend Wright was. Either Obama is lying and he really shares Reverend Wright’s beliefs, or Obama is so stupid he sat there for twenty years without realizing where his preacher’s head was at.
Which is it?
Chisum commented:

He called America “land of the greed and home of the slave.”
===========================
This is the man who was declared “mentor” by our President. Who sat in his church, with his family, for twenty years.
Perhaps the huge drop in BO’s poll numbers are due to the people getting a real glimpse of what lies behind the curtain.
Or it could be that the reality of failed socialist policies are becoming so obvious that they can no longer be ignored.

Magnum commented:
1. Not surprised.
2. If he hates it here so bad, why doesn’t he move away?
3. Number 2 was rhetorical; this is the only place he can be truly free and spew his hatred without being labeled a traitor and being deported or executed. Anytime he gets in the news people give him cash. He’s a fraudster just Jimmy Swaggart and just like all of ACORN who prey on the poor.
John commented:
Obama won the election.
Obama is showing that he is not the “One”; he is a growing failure. He can not lead, he can not govern, he has no great ideas, he can not bring people together, he can not solve problems.
The leaders of the left must have thought Obama was someone special, but are surely they are disappointed in him and must feel they got fooled by him, too.
We must use every opportunity to call out the failure of Obama and in upcoming elections put in people that are not from his liberal, socialist thinking.

Spot on. It was all out there for all to see and yet, the majority mindlessly bought into the hope & change meme without ever asking what both meant. The MSM is very much to blame for this being possible. They set out to vilify Bush – not criticize him fairly (and there was a lot to criticize) – so that the visceral reaction was “anyone but Bush, including the party he identified with…” Pavlov’s dogs = react and only react to stimulus. Now we all are paying for that reaction.

I’m not sure they have enough time to dispel the negative images of so many dead people.

And don’t forget that the Jeremiah Wright on the White House guest log, is a different Jeremiah Wright than the controversial one, uh huh. I’m so tired of this man’s lies, he’s lied about everything. He is one big lie, and a character that the degenrates in the media created. The media, lied to the country to destroy it. Katie Couric is responsible for the destruction of this nation. I hope her daughters suffer the consequenses of what their degenerate mother did.
“Not that Bill Ayers
The White House warns that many names that may appear familiar — and controversial — do not in fact refer to the most famous people to carry those names. Jeremiah Wright is on the list, but it’s not the president’s former pastor. This Michael Jordan is not the basketball player. This Michael Moore is not a filmmaker. The William Ayers who took a group tour of the White House isn’t the former radical from Chicago who figured so prominently in the 2008 campaign. And the Angela Davis on the list has a different middle initial than the activist and former fugitive.
The White House could have avoided some of that sort of confusion by providing more information on the visitors, such as an employer name and the city they hail from. For example, is the Shawn Carter who attended a poetry reading the same one who goes by Jay-Z and had campaigned for Obama?
“This unprecedented level of transparency can sometimes be confusing rather than providing clear information,” a White House special counsel, Norm Eisen, wrote on the White House blog.
averagemelon commented:
What a change in his demeanor and the soft tenor of his voice than from his pulpit!
America is so vile and Marxism is so spectacularly good. Just who does he think his slave master is? Me? Funny how the reality of millions of lives who lived under both forms of government can be so polar opposite from his thinking.
We will survive these morons and their demented teachers. They have let the cat out of the bag as to who they are and what they want to do. These Marxists will be defeated and imprisoned for what they have attempted to do to our Constitution and our people. Reverend Wright wants the media to change even though the current one ALLOWED his rhetoric to be heard. What fantastic fools these men of Obama’s are.
Ann commented:
Doesn’t really surprise me, I knew about the Black Liberation Theology before obama. Just was overwhelmed that there were so many followers.
I won’t dignify J. Wright by calling him Reverend; should only be a characteristic reserved for God. (even Billy Graham didn’t like being called that)
Personally, I think he’s a closet Muslim anyway. No true Chrsitian Church pastor would allow a Muslim (Louis Farrakhan) behind the pulpit. His trip to Libya, presenting him and the late Arafat with NAACP awards (with shakedowners Jackson and Sharpton).

“and this guy was in the service? Oh well, so was lee harvey oswald.”
Along with Tim McVeigh, the DC Sniper.
BTW FYI: The DC Sniper has business connections to Farrakhan (head of the NOI) and was a member of the Nation of Islam. He was on securty team and the Million Man March on DC. One of the DC Snipers victims, a man named Bridges was also there and had made some questionable business deals with Farrakhan. There should raise a red flag; Farrakhan was a person of interest in the investigated of the murder of Malcolm X.
Just FYI: The DC sniper is to be executed on November 10th.
Pat the First commented:
Oh, my . . . my grandmother was born in Russia. They escaped with the clothes on their backs and finally made it to the US with little or nothing. Much of her family lived a huge chunk of their lives behind the Berlin Wall or in the repressive USSR.
Wright needs to learn a good lesson. I say we let him go live in N. Korea and find out how wonderful Marxism is for those who have to live under it. Not the leaders in those countries, but the people who have to work under slave conditions. Considering the lack of food in N. Korea, it might do him some good. He would lose some of his weight.
pj commented:
He uses his ‘Black voice’ while he hoodwinks his Black audiences to become marxists and not Christians. When he’s talking to his real people – he has no need for his ‘Black voice’.
It’s so sad to think of people like Jackson, Sharpton, Wright and the hundreds (thousands?) of others who are keeping Black Americans in poverty.
People like the Detroit woman who was trying to collect her “Obama money” doesn’t realize that her own ‘leaders’ are trying to keep her down for their benefit.
Tears and sadness.

Maybe Roger Goodell could tag along next time.
Ann commented:
Would like to see someone investigate him. He supposedly received million in charity fund dollars to go to the Katrina victims. He was asking the contributors to make the checks out to him instead of the charity. Well, no money was ever received for the victims; the Wright was building him a nice 1 million or so house in Chicago.
And they call us “fishy”.

Spread the word to boycott them.

True believers in marxism/communism/fascism can rationalize *anything* as long as it benefits the cause of bringing them power.
The “truth” is what they say it is. No more. No less. And there are no contradictions if it serves the party.
gus commented:
They all love the idea of Marxism, but none of them wants to live the dream. Obama, Sharpton, Jackson, Farrakhan, and Wright are all wealthy. And all have a huge carbon footprint. All eat well and drive nice cars.
They want YOU to live THEIR dream.

I tend to agree with you that his father isn’t obama sr.
From what I read from the experts, blacks born from a white parent have the most prodominate features of the blacks. I see nothing of that in obama. He certainly does resemble his white grandfather Stanley Armour Dunham somewhat.
Personally, I think he looks so much like Malcolm X, it’s uncanny. Except for the ears. Will find an imaging on that site if you want I will look for it. (I think Israeli Insider) really busy. Obama’s skin also looks a little fake at time, like people’s skin so that’s been in a tanning booth or tanning lotion, greenish sort of, hard to explain.
Thanks

I find his skin PINKISH.

Hell will be surprisingly real for Jeremiah Wright. He only thinks he’s in hell now. That man is full of demons.

That’s what’s so damn infuriating about all this. It WAS in the open, but self-righteous airheads went all tip-toe-thru-the-tulips, throwing rose petals and patting themselves on the backs for being “Progressive” and “enlightened” in their above-it-all politics, more self-absorbed in an inner fantasy than absorbed in paying attention and doing some simple homework.
Further comment: Wright’s statement about “America: Land of the greed and the home of the slave” is pure Nation of Islam rhetoric.
NOI is an Islamic cult branch, not true Islam. But one writer recently on one of the blogs (I want to link, but I can’t remember where) clarified that a fundamental of NOI is obsession with the American slave period – a NEVER FORGIVE religious and political position.
It doesn’t matter that slavery was abolished over 150 years ago; it doesn’t matter that historically speaking America’s slave period was world record short in Human history; it doesn’t matter that Britain and America bucked the accepted trend world-wide and got themselves OUT of slavery, based on concepts of human rights that other countries did not have and some still don’t have; it doesn’t matter that slavery continued to flourish and be maintained in Africa and in Mediterranean Europe by the Muslim Ottoman Empire (Algiers: The “Great Depot of WHite SLaves”) and it’s remnants thru World War I – 1920; it doesn’t matter that it was the British at the cost of blood, ended the devestating Arab slave trade in Sudan; it doesn’t matter that slavery is still practiced in Muslim countries today.
All that matters in NOI is that America is unforgivably tainted forever in NOI as a slave nation. Thats’ why NOI talks slavery but doesn’t lift a finger to help real slaves in Africa and other continents get out of bondage.
People are deluding themselves that there is a reconciliation as long as NOI preaches America is never to be forgiven for slavery. In that respect it resembles the hard-line stance of radical Palestinians against Israel. But then why oh why would anyone sympathetic to that religion be a Democrat? Democrats were the political party that promoted and tried to protect slavery, then morphed into a smothering anti-civil rights movement of Jim Crow and KKKK intimidation to maintain Democrat WHite political dominance over Blacks. Why? Wright spoke it out, “Marxism.”
And for a real suspense theatre: IF Obama is Malcom’s X’s son, according to Chicago rumors, THEN the dynamics of Obama, Wright and Farrakhan would be, be … well, ahhh … downright Byzantine in their complexity.

I wonder how many ‘homeless’ the Rev lets sleep in his living room at night? Charity is supposed to come from the heart, not the barrel of a government gun, after being stolen from someone else.
Thumper commented:
A wolf in sheep’s clothing except his disguise is very bad. God will judge him harshly because He holds those who teach and preach to a higher standard and he is definitely not teaching God’s word.
His preaching is actually antithesis to the word to steal from the rich and give to the poor.
Stephen commented:
September 17th 2009…..praising Marxism on the 70th anniversary of the Fourth Partition of Poland. In 1939 Hitler invaded on September 1st from the West, on the 17th Stalin invaded from the East. It should be noted that because of that gutless coward FDR, Stalin ultimately was able to keep around 7/8 of the Polish territory he annexed in 1939 and that the Polish population in those territories and farther eastwards went from 5,100,000 in 1939 to 1,300,000 in 1959.
Remember all that it was on that same day in 2009 that Obama announced scrapping the missile shield for Poland…..spitting in their face, as the country already suffered one betrayal in being sold to the Russians in 1945–and now again in 2009.
