It is shameful how Fox News and every liberal and conservative news organization have caricatured Reverend Jeremiah Wright’s sermon on the 9/11 tragedy by displaying small snippets that make him look unpatriotic or vitriolic. Many do not realize that many statements including the “chickens coming home to roost” statement was him addressing what Ambassador Edward Peck said on Fox.

Ultimately this sermon is a very Christian sermon that urges self-examination as opposed to retaliation which breeds more violence. Listen to the speech in its entirety and America will sure see some wisdom in it.

While Pastor Wright have a tendency to use raw hyperbole, I simply cannot view him as racist. You be the judge.

This is the sermon where Pastor Wright is accused of damning the United States of America. While his tone was in fact harsh and vitriolic at times, nothing he said was factually incorrect. While many simply hear “damn America” it is quite obvious he was damning America’s bad actions. We all love our country. We must love it enough to identify its faults which in fact would then allow us to improve.

Clinton claimed that when she landed in Bosnia, she had to run and duck fire as it was a war zone. The Washington Post has clear pictures and videos to prove otherwise. Can we have a President that create stories just to try to pad their resume? Clinton is proving to be all that many on the Right said she was. How sad.
