So far my theory of "Rope a Dope" seems to be a good one.  The not so very Reverend Mouth that Blasphemed is still quiet.  Here is an Interesting Article from the LA Times that talks about your Take on the Obama/Wright Spat.  Even Spike Lee in jumping into to the Fray telling Reverend Wright to Shut up!  Who was the Grasshopper Blogger who mentioned Spike Lee and his Do the Right Thing Movie and the Obama's falling in Love over this Movie? Me,  back on April 22 here. For the Obamas Do the Right Thing is to them what the movie Casa Blanca is for Normal America Loving People!   The couple's first date was to the Spike Lee movie Do the Right Thing.^[11] Cheers FXY

 

Has Barack Obama put the Jeremiah Wright controversy behind him?

The candidate's supporters say yes, but conservative commentators beg to differ.

May 2, 2008
Barack Obama and friends would like to believe that a little steam is beginning to come out of the furor surrounding the explosive views of the candidate's onetime pastor and spiritual advisor, the Rev. Jeremiah A. Wright Jr.

Appearing on NBC's "Today" show Thursday, Obama defended his handling of the controversy over Wright -- who had suggested the U.S. government could have brought on the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks and planted the AIDS virus among African Americans. His wife, Michelle Obama, urged: "We've got to move forward."

 

A supporter on the liberal Daily Kos website proclaimed that had already happened. "The entire Wright storm cloud has been seeded, drained and dispersed," said the pro-Obama poster.

Not so fast, conservative writers and radio commentators demanded.

On Fox television's "Hannity & Colmes," co-host Sean Hannity said Obama's relationship with Wright exposed the candidate as "hiding who he really is, and I think that's what's damaging here."

Radio talk show host Hugh Hewitt blogged that Obama's past associations with Wright and others were increasingly making him look "unelectable." Hewitt added, "The Dems look more and more like Thelma and Louise headed for the cliff."

Republican uber-operative Karl Rove, now a Fox television commentator, said Obama should admit a mistake in associating with Wright. And Rove hardly appeared crestfallen when he predicted that the controversy would "continue on for months."

More on Wright: The controversy continues to bite back at Wright. Spike Lee, director of such racially themed films as "Do the Right Thing" and "Malcolm X," was quoted in London's Guardian newspaper Thursday saying that the pastor "needs to be quiet." Northwestern University, meanwhile, withdrew its offer of an honorary degree for the minister, fearing his presence might make it difficult to ensure the "celebratory character" of the school's June commencement ceremonies.

Barack Oh-no-ma's think tank believes Reverend Jeremiah Wright should be called Reverend Jeremiah Left!  That is what the Obama Camp and Strategists have been thinking of Reverend Wright for a while per the LA Times Blog as of this March 16, 2008 post(see below).  Still no peep out of the Mouth that Railed the Obama Peace Train and left Oh-no-ma Tongue tied.....so far it is looking like a TKO in this epic "Black on Black Crime" with Reverend Jeremiah Left on the Canvas (at the moment) as these 2 Political Black Liberation "rock'em sock'em"Theologians dressed in Sheep-like "Chrisitians" Tunics  fight it out in the Ring of Presidential Politics.  Reverend Jeremiah Left is such a fine example of Christian Theology as he sucker punches his disciple Barack.  Oh-no-grandma I should of thrown Reverend Left off the train before I dumped on you.  Obama's Grandma has not come out against her Grandson yet but his Preach has.  Who is living the Christian Golden Rule Grand-Mama or Revving Jeremiah Left?  Will the Preacher of "attacked Black Church" Wright come out for round 4 or is this a TKO in favor of Prezidential Candy-date Oh-no-ma or is this a Rope a Dope as I suggested here and here?  Will Reverend Left wag his hissing rhetoric at The White Man in America who is naturally EV IL!  I'm waiting Rev as is "GD"America.... 

But more than a year ago -- long before some of Wright’s more incendiary sermons became hot-button videos on YouTube, forcing Obama to publicly renounce his pastor last week -- the Obama campaign had a sense that Wright's sharp tongue might spell trouble for the Illinois senator. 

That was the word anyway Sunday from Obama’s chief strategist, David Axelrod, who acknowledged during a conference call with reporters that Wright was disinvited ...

from Obama's official candidacy announcement on Feb. 10, 2007, in the shadow of the Old State Capitol in Springfield, Ill.

Wright had been expected to lead an invocation of some kind, but never appeared.

“There was no doubt that there was controversy surrounding him,” Axelrod said Sunday.  “And we didn’t want to expose him … [or] make him the target and a distraction on a day when Sen. Obama was going to announce his candidacy.”

So if the savvy Obama campaign knew Wright was a problem a year ago, why did the Illinois senator, a parish member for two decades, wait until last week to disassociate and denounce the minister's inflammatory statements?

The topic is clearly uncomfortable for Obama and his aides, personally and politically. Axelrod's comments came only after prodding from a reporter and after he had initially suggested that Wright’s absence that day was due merely to the fact that the temperature was in the single digits.

And even as Obama has condemned some of Wright’s rhetoric and distanced himself from his longtime spiritual advisor, doing so has not been easy.  Wright remained on an African American religious advisory committee for the campaign until Friday.

Cheers,

 In 35 years Planned Parenthood has killed 17 million Black Babies in the USA alone.  More blacks than were killed in 400 years of Slavery and more than were taken into Slavery!   Want about these stats...AMAZING uet Obama and Wright say nothing.   Check out Encarta for these figures here.  Reverend Wright and future President Obama you have not responded to my pleas for help in getting the word out...why?    Pope Benedict would not be Proud!  Here is a great resource for Reverend Wright should he want to help other Black Ministers of Christ's Gospel and abandon the Gospel of the Black Pantershe preaches and that of the Weather Undergroud run by Obama's other pal Bill Ayres. Here Obama and Wright can get in touch with true Ministers of Christ and help save your people and my fellow Americans!

She could have aborted this sorry Anti-American and Anti-Life Politician. But thank God she didn't as he was given the gift of life!  How ironic that he is half black when Blacks are being killed by the white elistist establishment of old...."Negro Project" designed by Maragret Sanger, founder of Planned Parenthood!  Obama is for the abortion of his own People.  Wake up Black America to the truth!

Black Religious Leaders included: Dr. Alveda C. King(niece of Martin Luther King Jr. ) with good info on her at Prieist for Life website, Johnny Hunter unter and more.

We asked her “What’s the significance of what you are here for, it’s Black History Month...”

Gardner “This is Black History Month, and this is a time where we remember the struggles and the trials in the black community, and it’s also a time to celebrate our accomplishments. The thing is, the one struggle that we still have hanging over us is the struggle of abortion. The fact that so many babies, since 1973, more than 15 million (black) babies have been aborted. Blacks are being devastated by abortion. Planned Parenthood and other pro-abortion organizations move very stealth-fully within black communities to actually abolish us as a race.”

The day started out at the Planned Parenthood abortion mill in Washington D.C. where the black leaders prayed for an end to abortion and the culture of death.

Obama's pals

Obama's Friends are as Marcus Tullius Cicero described only more obvious.  Obama is more like the quote.  Makes me think of the adage Birds of A Feather...see Hugh Hewitt "A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and he carries his banners openly. But the traitor moves among those within the gates freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very hall of government itself. For the traitor appears not traitor - he speaks in the accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their garments, and he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation - he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of a city - he infects the body politic so that is can no longer resist. A murderer is less to be feared."
