Obama’s Former Pastor Getting $1.6M Home in Retirement - America’s Election HQ

This is one reason to look into the tax exempt status of church's.
The people who cry separation of church and state for some reason don't include church's that preach a political view against America.
America seems to have done well for this man and for the Obamas why is it that they Hate America so much?

Why is it that when someone makes a statement in judgment of American policies they are labeled as un-American, unpatriotic, as if America can do no wrong? If the founders had that attitude we'd still be under colonial rule.

Because the statements that he quoted were not backed up with facts .
And when someone preaches days after something like 911 where 2,000 or so Americans Died GOD D*@m America that pretty much sums up his sentiment to his patriotic views of America.
If you can find something of his where he is stating the love of a country that has giving him and everyone else a chance to accomplish any goal they applied them selfs to please show us.
Again with separation of church and state a pastor is supposed to refrain from preaching politics other wise their tax exempt status is in question and it has been brought against other Church's for this reason.

No you know the only thing on youtube is the negative he spoke. Certainly can't post anything positive he may have said...I mighty mislead someone.

It happens that, as a Philadelphian, I attended Central High School – the same public school Jeremiah Wright attended from 1955 to 1959. He could have gone to an integrated neighborhood school, but he chose to go to Central, a virtually all-white school. Central is the second oldest public high school in the country, which attracts the most serious academic students in the city. The school then was about 80% Jewish and 95% white. The African-American students, like all the others, were there on merit. Generally speaking, we came from lower/middle class backgrounds. Many of our parents had not received a formal education and we tended to live in row houses. In short, economically, we were roughly on par.

I attended Central a few years after Rev. Wright, so I did not know him personally. But I knew of him and I know where he used to live – in a tree-lined neighborhood of large stone houses in the Germantown section of Philadelphia. This is a lovely neighborhood to this day. Moreover, Rev. Wright's father was a prominent pastor and his mother was a teacher and later vice-principal and disciplinarian of the Philadelphia High School for Girls, also a distinguished academic high school. Two of my acquaintances remember her as an intimidating and strict disciplinarian and excellent math teacher. In short, Rev. Wright had a comfortable upper-middle class upbringing. It was hardly the scene of poverty and indignity suggested by Senator Obama to explain what he calls Wright's anger and what I describe as his hatred.

This guy did not grow up in poverty. I wonder where his hate comes from. Now he will have a nice retirement in this evil hatefilled country. If it is so bad, sell your house and move
