And after they give to everybody and after the place has gone broke is when the real socialist fangs come out in the liberals such as H. Clinton or Obama. It is called martial law. You will see unrest and NATO taking over the streets to control the civil disobediances. This country gets just what they wish for IF. - Jerimia Fri, 28 Mar 2008 09:25:59 +0100 http://tracypress.com/content/view/14053/2244/#comment-41102 while liberals tend to value fairness more than conservatives. It's not altogether clear why Mark Davis cant see why? because he himself is a liberal. Liberals see "Fairness" as a socialist word. Take from the rich and give to the lazy. This is the foundation of Communist class warfare. the real truth is that the "Fairness" is built into the constitution already. Blacks can look at the success of Oprah Winfrey the Richest Woman in the World as a perfect example. Leftists Like Davis will be unable to, because he has a different dictionary. - Steve Reshakis Fri, 28 Mar 2008 07:36:46 +0100 http://tracypress.com/content/view/14053/2244/#comment-41027 You hear all of this about Rev.Wright. I can not say he reflects my outlooks on life, especially other people. This dope has no business talking trash on other races when this appears to be what his complaints are about in the white caucasion race. I bet Obama cringes when he hears this stuff. The other shoe seems to be dropping every other day for him and his contriversial pastor. I will be surprised if he gets elected. - Terish Thu, 27 Mar 2008 10:31:26 +0100 http://tracypress.com/content/view/14053/2244/#comment-41022 The reason to attend church is God not the pastor. I cant say I have identified with any preachers here in Tracy although I have attended many churches. That being said I dont condone what pastor Wright has said but having grown up in the black community I understand his frustrations but I dont agree with his statements. Ask yourself the question. Does your pastor reflect who you are? - Undecided Thu, 27 Mar 2008 08:58:26 +0100 http://tracypress.com/content/view/14053/2244/#comment-40990 Every issue of the magazine published last year included Wright's column, "The Message," in which he covered a range of subjects, including his views on other African-American churches as expressed in his April 2007 commentary "Facing the Rising Sun." "In a world that is controlled by white supremacy, in a country that is on its way to hell in a hand basket because of lying politicians, in a culture that still thinks 'white is right' and with young people who do not have a clue as to our story, our history, our legacy or our destiny, we still have African-American Christians who are more concerned about 'bling bling' than about freeing our minds," Wright wrote. In a nationally broadcast speech on March 18, Obama distanced himself from Wright by saying he "condemned, in unequivocal terms, the statements of Reverend Wright that have caused such controversy." But Obama also said, "I could no more disown him than I could disown the black community." According to his federal income tax return for 2006, Obama gave the Trinity United church that year $22,500 in contributions. :o - IsObamaForReal? Wed, 26 Mar 2008 21:02:02 +0100 http://tracypress.com/content/view/14053/2244/#comment-40989 Rev. Jeremiah A. Wright Jr., pastor emeritus of Trinity United Church of Christ in Chicago where Sen. Barack Obama has been a member for two decades, slurred Italians in a piece published in the most recent issue of Trumpet Newsmagazine. "(Jesus') enemies had their opinion about Him," Wright wrote in a eulogy of the late scholar Asa Hilliard in the November/December 2007 issue. "The Italians for the most part looked down their garlic noses at the Galileans. "From the circumstances surrounding Jesus' birth (in a barn in a township that was under the Apartheid Roman government that said his daddy had to be in), up to and including the circumstances surrounding Jesus' death on a cross, a Roman cross, public lynching Italian style. ..." Wright wrote. "He refused to be defined by others and Dr. Asa Hilliard also refused to be defined by others. "The government runs everything from the White House to the schoolhouse, from the Capitol to the Klan, white supremacy is clearly in charge, but Asa, like Jesus, refused to be defined by an oppressive government because Asa got his identity from an Omnipotent God," said Wright. - IsObamaForReal? Wed, 26 Mar 2008 21:01:53 +0100 http://tracypress.com/content/view/14053/2244/#comment-40973 The one thing I do know is, some of the caucasions going for Obama are the guilty whites who hug up to blacks so it makes them feel all good inside about themselves. Obama is a racist and has not disowned his racist pastor for his raceist Afro-Centric comments. If Obama disowns his pastor then he will loose everything and all who supports him as a senator if he looses this race to the top. He wants it both ways. He needs his race foundation of that afrocentric trinity church. Yeah GodDamAmerica. A real good choice for prez. >:( - JKershaw Wed, 26 Mar 2008 16:06:57 +0100 http://tracypress.com/content/view/14053/2244/#comment-40939 Interesting stuff. I've been closely following recent work on ethical differences between liberals and conservatives (Jonathan Haidt/David Sloan Wilson). The major detectable difference is that conservatives tend to value reverence more than liberals, while liberals tend to value fairness more than conservatives. It's not altogether clear why, though DSW looked recently at when that distinction begins and found that teens who are conservative tend to spend significantly less time alone than liberals, and tend to feel it is inappropriate to challenge the opinions of others. Attila the Hun as a social or fiscal conservative left me puzzled, though? Maybe only in the sense of this recent rash of adventurism. - Mark Davis Wed, 26 Mar 2008 09:40:17 +0100
