PLJ, The author here hits the bullseye on Obama’s dangerous hypocricy of claiming to be a uniter of all Americans while simultaneously saying that white Americans must pay a price of Racial Indulgences (i.e. trillions more for programs targeted to blacks only) for the Original Sin of slavery.
In your moral equivalence to Reverend Wright, you mention his words were, “full of anger, but not hate.” There is no context in which “God DAMN America!” cannot be seen as pure hate – particularly coming from the pulpit.
You write further regarding his words, “by truth I mean anything that promotes peace and love.” Wright’s repeated race-baiting (see: white, rich, privileged…et.al.) only perpetuates and further poisons any “peace and love” between Americans.
I could never seriously claim, as you did, that NObama ever wanted to offer with his speech an “open and honest debate on the subject of reconcilliation and not just race.” In fact, he only put the chip on his shoulder for all to see: that he, in reality, is no different than many race hustlers who have come before him. But a really smooooooooooth charlatan.
