Obama’s pastor Jeremiah Wright: Former Muslim
April 07th 2008A reader from Free Republic has dug up an old article last year (March 07) From TNR about Obama. It was written by Ryan Lizza, Senior editor at The New Republic. It’s a biographical piece, but in the article, it explicitly states that Jeremiah Wright is a former Muslim.
From Wright and others, Obama learned that part of his problem as an organizer was that he was trying to build a confederation of churches but wasn’t showing up in the pews on Sunday. When pastors asked him the inevitable questions about his own spiritual life, Obama would duck them uncomfortably. A Reverend Philips put the problem to him squarely when he learned that Obama didn’t attend services. “It might help your mission if you had a church home,” he told Obama. “It doesn’t matter where, really. What you’re asking from pastors requires us to set aside some of our more priestly concerns in favor of prophesy. That requires a good deal of faith on our part. It makes us want to know just where you’re getting yours from.”
After many lectures like this, Obama decided to take a second look at Wright’s church. Older pastors warned him that Trinity was for “Buppies”–black urban professionals–and didn’t have enough street cred. But Wright was a former Muslim and black nationalist who had studied at Howard and Chicago, and Trinity’s guiding principles–what the church calls the “Black Value System”–included a “Disavowal of the Pursuit of Middleclassness.’”
The crosscurrents appealed to Obama. He came to believe that the church could not only compensate for the limitations of Alinsky-style organizing but could help answer the nagging identity problem he had come to Chicago to solve. “It was a powerful program, this cultural community,” he wrote, “one more pliant than simple nationalism, more sustaining than my own brand of organizing.”
As a result, over the years, Wright became not only Obama’s pastor, but his mentor. The title of Obama’s recent book, The Audacity of Hope, is based on a sermon by Wright. (It’s worth noting, however, that, while Obama’s book is a coolheaded appeal for common ground in an age of political polarization, Wright’s sermon, “The Audacity to Hope,” is a fiery jeremiad about persevering in a world of nuclear arms and racial inequality.) Wright is one of the first people Obama thanked after his Senate victory in 2004, and he recently name-checked Wright in his speech to civil rights leaders in Selma, Alabama.
So the question is, why hasn’t anyone mentioned the fact that he’s a former Muslim? Could this be why Obama’s church posted a Hamas manifesto in the Trinity Church program last year? It obviously explains Wright’s affinity with Louis Farrakhan. It also explains more why Rev. Wright got his Masters degree in “Islam in West Africa”
This is just another blow to the Obama campaign. The American people are not ready to hand the reins to someone who’s associations are beyond sketchy.

Oh.My.Gosh, scandalous!
Here is an interesting resource in regards to taqiyya - deception by Muslims. Pretending to be a Christian can be an act of taqiyya.
“Falsehoods told to prevent the denigration of Islam, to protect oneself, or to promote the cause of Islam are sanctioned in the Qur’an and Sunna, including lying under oath in testimony before a court, deceiving by making distorted statements to the media such as the claim that Islam is a “religion of peace”. A Muslim is even permitted to deny or denounce his faith if, in so doing, he protects or furthers the interests of Islam, so long as he remains faithful to Islam in his heart.”
“Like many Islamic practices, taqiyya was formed within the context of the culture of Arab tribalism, expansionary warfare, Bedouin raiding and inter-tribal conflict. Taqiyya has been used by Muslims since the 7th century to confuse, confound and divide ‘the enemy’.”

Why hasn’t anyone mentioned this? I’ve posted on this repeatedly over the past month, and longer. This is old news.

I am not surprised.
Who really cares? Rev. Wright isn’t running for president. Religion and a good pastor doesn’t make you a saint either. Ask George W. Bush.
Clearly Obama, Wright, and the entire congregation of Trinity are super-secret Muslims ready to turn over the key to the White House to the Ayatollah as soon as Obama is elected.

This is sooo unimportant to the election. I mean, first Obama is a former Muslim and in most cases people that hear the rumors but don’t look for info themselves think he is a muslim. Now this. I mean, if Obama was a muslim, as in, right now..that would matter. But if he and escpecially his pastor were a muslim and converted, more ppower to em’. That takes a lot of faith.
@Storm-rider, the site you quoted from is called “islam-watch” I wonder if they are biased, in fact, I’d be suprised if they are not extremely rascist. I think this article is about as relevant as an article that says all Islamic people are extremeist. I think the people that follow this are as rare as the terrorists. Give me a break and lets get some real sources of information. I mean do you honestly think that Rev. Writght or Obama are using this…if not, why are we takling about it at all. This is the type of stuff that makes ignorant people more ignorant. You may know that it is not relevant, but people that read it or hear about it will take it seriously and tell all their ignorant friends and family. And please do not confuse ignorant with stupid, i’m just talking about people that are not interested in politics and go based on what they hear from friends and family.
Nick @ Inbetween Politics
P.S. I do not support Obama, so this is not a comment for the purpose of supporting Obama…just truth in general.
He is also a former marine.
In 1961, a young African-American man, after hearing President John F. Kennedy’s challenge to, “Ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country,” gave up his student deferment, left college in Virginia and voluntarily joined the Marines. In 1963, this man, having completed his two years of service in the Marines, volunteered again to become a Navy corpsman. (They provide medical assistance to the Marines as well as to Navy personnel.)
The man did so well in corpsman school that he was the valedictorian and became a cardiopulmonary technician. Not surprisingly, he was assigned to the Navy’s premier medical facility, Bethesda Naval Hospital, as a member of the commander in chief’s medical team, and helped care for President Lyndon B. Johnson after his 1966 surgery. For his service on the team, which he left in 1967, the White House awarded him three letters of commendation. What is even more remarkable is that this man entered the Marines and Navy not many years after the two branches began to become integrated.
While this young man was serving six years on active duty, Vice President Dick Cheney, who was born the same year as the Marine/sailor, received five deferments, four for being an undergraduate and graduate student and one for being a prospective father. Presidents Bill Clinton and George W. Bush, both five years younger than the African-American youth, used their student deferments to stay in college until 1968. Both then avoided going on active duty through family connections.
Who is the real patriot? The young man who interrupted his studies to serve his country for six years or our three political leaders who beat the system? Are the patriots the people who actually sacrifice something or those who merely talk about their love of the country?
After leaving the service of his country, the young African-American finished his final year of college, entered the seminary, was ordained as a minister, and eventually became pastor of a large church in one of America’s biggest cities.__This man is Rev. Jeremiah Wright, the retiring pastor of Trinity United Church of Christ, who has been in the news for comments he made over the last three decades.
Since these comments became public we have heard criticisms, condemnations, denouncements and rejections of his comments and him. We’ve seen on television, in a seemingly endless loop, sound bites of a select few of Rev. Wright’s many sermons. Some of the Wright’s comments are inexcusable and inappropriate and should be condemned, but in calling This him “unpatriotic,” let us not forget that this is a man who gave up six of the most productive years of his life to serve his country.
How many of Wright’s detractors, Rush Limbaugh and Bill O’Reilly to name but a few, volunteered for service, and did so under the often tumultuous circumstances of a newly integrated armed forces and a society in the midst of a civil rights struggle? Not many. While words do count, so do actions. Let us not forget that, for whatever Rev. Wright may have said over the last 30 years, he has demonstrated his patriotism.
Lawrence Korb and Ian Moss are, respectively, Navy and Marine Corps veterans. They work at The Center For American Progress. Korb served as assistant secretary of Defense in the Reagan administration.
This piece ran in the Chicago Tribune on April 3, 2008.
oh, and hello again.
Well, crud. Now I don’t know if I like Wright better or not, learning this.
OK, NOT.
>>>>Who is the real patriot? The young man who interrupted his studies to serve his country for six years or our three political leaders who beat the system? Are the patriots the people who actually sacrifice something or those who merely talk about their love of the country?
I didn’t see the Rev. Wright consider Colin Powell’s honorable service in the military when he was busy calling him a house slave. Seems you Libturds want it both ways. Well, you ain’t gonna have it both ways. If military service doesn’t immunize Colin Powell from the vicious attacks he receives from Leftwingers and traitors like Wright, then I don’t see Wright being immunized either. Dem chickens iza cumen hom to rust.
ps., Lee Harvey Oswald served in the Marines. Just like Wright. Enough said. Thanks for playing.
In 1956, inspired by his older brother’s service, young man enlisted in the U.S. Marine Corps a week after his 17th birthday. Though he qualified as a sharpshooter and marksman, he trained as a radar operator, and was granted security clearance to handle classified materials including those labeled CONFIDENTIAL. He was assigned first to Marine Corps Air Station El Toro in Irvine, California then to Naval Air Facility Atsugi in Japan. Atsugi was a base for the top-secret CIA U-2 spy planes that flew over the Soviet Union.
How dare we question such a person’s patriotism? I mean, just because he was a staunch communist, emigrated to the Soviet Union, and then later killed a US president, we can’t call him unpatriotic. After all, he served his country while all those nasty guys like Rush Limbaugh avoided service.
Maybe the man who was seen on YouTube was his twin brother, couldn’t have been this sterling gentleman who was a Marine. Marine’s wouldn’t say “God Damn America” because they love the US of KKK and A and a good Marine wouldn’t say the “Chickens came home to roost and 3000 incenereated people deserved to die that day. A good Marine wouldn’t be a secret Moslem pretending to be a Christian and a good Marine wouldn’t be practicing taqiyya [the act of lying about ones real faith.] Yep, has to be that twin brother of ‘Rev. Wright’s’ he’s always causing problems, every body know that.
i love this. i post an article about a man’s patriotism, and then you all rush to attack it. Lee Harvy Oswald shot a guy, all Wright has done is express his opinion. Oswald used his training as a marine to the detriment of America, Wright is simply expressing his opinion.
And we have the gall to call him a bad person. for excersing the First Amendment.
For shame, and you call yourselves conservatives!
>>>And we have the gall to call him a bad person. for excersing the First Amendment.
Fantastic. Wright exercises his First Amendment rights to crap on the country that affords him those First Amendment rights. What a hero! Yeah, I guess I have the “gall” to call him a bad person for that. Better yet, a traitorous dog and a scumbag. His military service doesn’t make him a patriot anymore than it did Lee Harvey Oswald. Only difference is Oswald had the courage of his convictions while Wright doesn’t. Both equally traitorous though.
[...] Obomma’s ‘pastor & spiritual adviser’ Wright turns out to be a ‘former… [...]
“God damn America”, “Chickens came home to roost”
Obama is still in with a chance after that? Really, what’s up over there in the good ol’ US of A. This is creeping me out, it really is.
Not surprising since the man is obviously brimming over with hatred. I never understant black Muslim who are pissed at ‘whitey’ obver slavery but find a kinship with the very people who originally enslaved black Africans, Muslim Arabs! And in fact, still enslave black Africans today! Chattel slavery, and nary a peep from black people, except to condemn white people. All I can think is that they are racists, plain and simple, and they dont REALLY give a flying f about slavery.
So, young man Wright does the right thing. The thing you are supposed to do. Like get a job, take care of your family, serve in the military. You are supposed to do that. That’s expected.
And of course Benedict Arnold served too.
That’s the thing about being a traitor. You first have to be a patriot….then..you turn against.
Anyways, Obama is just running the sidelines between black racist backwaters and white liberal affirmitive action dreams. He’s finally, after trillions of dollars spent, entire cities ruined, a fairly presentible boy of the liberal plantation.
Islam-watch is a website run by Muslim apostates. That is, it is run by former Muslims just like Rev. Wright and Barack Obama. So, if they are rabid ‘racists’ (racist against a religion apparently) then they are self-hating racists.
“8. “Islam Watch” will be dominated by ex-Muslims and moderate Muslim writers. We will make some room for non-Muslim writers to gauge how the non-Muslim world grasps the truth about Islam.
”
The above from their mission statement.
I doubt Rev. Wright is engaging in taqiyya, or kitman, especially considering that although it is sanctioned in some schools of Islamic thought, it is mostly passed down culturally, through a culture that is alien to Wright. Nation of Islam have never exactly been that stealthy, or sly, and neither is Wright.
I do however seriously doubt that Rev. Wright, just like the Nation of Islam, are actually religious and just use religion as a mask for a political and social ideology that is in no way spiritual in nature. A Christian branch of Nation of Islam, and its black liberation theology. The Nation of Islam itself is not really Muslim. It cherry picks what it wants out of Islam and abandons its Arab roots, it abandons Sharia and whatever else it feels like.
Trinity is no different when it comes to Christianity. Totally willing to rewrite history and theology for the sake of fitting it within a racist, black supremacist
framework, including going along with the Islamic replacement theology of the reverse roles of the sons of Abraham, that is preached by Rev. Wright to anti-semitic effect.
Rev. Wright’s church is simply the black version of the white supremacist Christian Identity church, and the Christian version of Nation of Islam.
[...] Read it. [...]
Lee Harvey Oswald was also a former Marine. That is not a status that wipes away hypocrisies, racism and a life of lies. Wright has placed himself in direct opposition to the goals of this nation in terms of liberty and justice for all. He clearly prefers the company of Muslim fascists and his congregation of zombie’s includes a US Senator that wishes to become President and holds him as a mentor figure. Wright is a racist and a spewer of hatred on parallel to anything the KKK ever produced, and has the evil intention to try and pass along his bile as biblical. You can’t make this stuff up.

Richard - you are SERIOUSLY disillusioned! All Oswald did was shoot “a guy”? “Wright is simply expressing his opinion”??? Both are horrible people regardless of their service. Service doesn’t make you good for all time. And the notion that ALL Wright did was express his opinion is ludicrous. No, that’s not expressing an opinion. That is EDUCATING literally THOUSANDS of people from the pulpit. Being in the pulpit gives you a LOT of influence. I can walk around and spew all the hate I want but who will listen? That is freedom of speech. Spewing his “Christian” brand of Islam from the pulpit is ENTIRELY different. As David said “Thanks for playing.” And you can stop trying to bash us with the freedom of speech bit anyway. We would have to be complete idiots (which Muslims hope we are) to allow anyone to keep on spewing what will lead to our deaths. That is NO room for that in freedom of speech. Besides you killed your entire argument with this nonsense “the site you quoted from is called “islam-watch” I wonder if they are biased, in fact, I’d be surprised if they are not extremely rascist.” Racist huh? SUUUUURE RICHARD. So you do all your research on what a great service member Wright was and it was just research. Someone else does some research on just how insidious Muslims can be in the spread of Islam and they are, not just a little but “EXTREMELY RACIST”. Nice. That says a lot. Again, thanks for playing.

Hey genius, did you actually check out the site before you voiced your ignorant opinion?
Islam-watch is a site run by FORMER MUSLIMS, think they may have a better understanding of the religion than you do???????
And Racist? Islam ISN’T a RACE!
This is just another blow to the Obama campaign. - Sorry no, it would only be a blow if the MSM reported it and I doubt they will.
Al the different dates out there for Wrights’s “service and education make me suspicious of his record.
In the USMC you qualify for Marksman OR Sharpshooter, NOT Both.
There are no “validictorians” in military classes.
I have seached the “Buddy Listings on the Military.com site of honorable disharched veterans; he’s not there.

David,
Nice shot!
Tex,
Don’t be too worried, in 2006 when the Dhimmicrats were given Congress, liberal hippie cowards celebrated the impending surrender in Iraq. Oh wait, IT DIDN’T HAPPEN. We will not allow Obama to run our great nation into the gutter.
Andrew,
You must forgive Richard, as it is difficult for him to see the world as it is, what with his head up his ass. Of course islam-watch is biased. It is run primarily by EX-muslims who have experienced the brutality first hand, and still managed to get educated, use their brains, and realize that islam is a death cult that exploits the illiterate and the uneducated by telling them that if they blow themselves up and take out a few unbelievers they go to an orgy in the afterlife. Why would anyone be biased against that?
As for the racist part, that is a weak, pathetic argument (then again most liberals are weak, pathetic humans), as islam is practiced by arabs, caucasians, blacks, orientals, and hispanics.
Just cuz Obama was raised a Commie doesn’t mean he is one now; just because he was raised Muslim for a time doesn’t mean he is one now; just because Wright was a Muslim doesn’t mean he is one now but presumably these “conversions” if they occured were predicated on some event, philosophical breakthrough or life change that would be vital to any reasonable examination of “character” which both Dems are running on since they have no experience. So let’s hear Obama tell us why his old Commie dad or his buddy Bomber Bill Ayers or Wright are not merely wrong but obviously and offensively wrong, since he, natch, claims outrage and offense now.
On another note…. If Wright converted from Islam to Christianity or anything, isn’t he subject to a fatwa that calls for his head? I mean, unless the jihadis think this is another, more clever, furtherance of jihad? I’m just sayin’….

You’ve conveniently lumped Black Muslims in with mainstream Muslims. Mainstream Muslims have never recognized Malcolm X’s and Louis Farrakhan’s Nation of Islam as real Muslims, but tend to consider Black Muslims some weird non-Islamic cult borne in America’s African-American communities far from Mecca.
For a time in his youth maybe Rev. Wright was a black Muslim. That hardly makes him a terrorist or anyone even remotely close in extremism or religiosity to the likes of al-Qaeda. Rev. Wright is Congregational minister now — that’s the same church Roger Williams founded in the 1600s as the colony of Rhode Island broke off from Massachusetts. Hardly Islamic, but quite Protestant and quite American.
False guilt-by-association is an old technique of defamation by the far-right in this country. You seem to be keeping up the tradition nicely. Just don’t go calling it a patriotic to mislead your own countrymen about the backgrounds of some of its citizens. Defamation is not patriotism; it’s just defamation. And defamation contributes to prejudice and paranoia instead of tolerance and security.
“…the site you quoted from is called “islam-watch” I wonder if they are biased, in fact, I’d be suprised if they are not extremely rascist….”
Richard, what’s your assessment of Rev. Wright’s endorsement of the notion that Israel has developed a biological weapon that kills only Arabs and blacks? Please explain how this isn’t a modern blood libel.
“all Wright has done is express his opinion.”
Yeah, but maybe you should consider that whole visiting Kaddafi with Rev. Dr. Louis thing.
I wouldn’t call that expressing his opinion, I’d call that siding with the enemy.
So can we extrapolate or infer anything from that, or is that off limits to consideration by white people?
Wait a minute…I thought the Boy President Clinton was a liberal hero precisely because he *didn’t* go into the military. Wha…?
And so what if Wright was in the miltary? George Lincoln Rockwell, founder of the American Nazi Party and author of “White Power”, was in the Navy in WWII. Does that make him less of a racist bigot?
Finally, doesn’t Wright’s status as an ex-Muslim mean he deserves death as an apostate, according to the “religion of peace’”?
Bozoer,
I would not hold my breath waiting for a rational, logical reply from Richard. After all he is suffering from a cranial rectal inversion, which is causing a compression on his carotid artery, limiting the flow of blood to his brain, which is why we see such drivel.
[...] Infidels Are Cool (HT LGF) thinks this is news, and I guess to the general populace he’s probably right. [...]
I heard about this long before it was even made public. As a christian myself that was formerly muslim, I still say no big deal. I just believe I was on the wrong track when I chose to be a muslim. Once I heard the truth. I couldnt’ deny it. Clock on Dee’s Blog to learn more information on where I am today as a Christian on http://deespence.com
Instead of speculating on the maximum ugliness this knowledge could indicate, let’s look at the minimum. Wright’s conversion does not seem to be from Muslim (black) to Christian (black), but from Black Muslim to Black Christian, with the racial emphasis being primary in both cases. We should not therefore conclude that he is a Muslim stalking horse. The most we can be sure of is that he might be overly tolerant of Islamic terrorism when originates from people of color or targets whites, not that he would be any participant or even encourager. Obama’s parallel conversion tells us much the same. The danger is not in active support he might give to any terrorist or islamic causes, but his willingness to look the other way or cut too much slack to America’s enemies if they embraced a racial rhetoric.
That’s worrisome enough in itself. There’s no need to try and make it appear violent or treasonous when it isn’t. Its danger is real, but more passive than active.
I can’t wait to vote for my Muslim Overlords in November.
I’m sure it can’t be worse than the unmitigated idoiticy we’ve been living under for 7 years. Yay for Republicans!
Everyone should vote for Mr.Obama because he’s bringing peace and prosperity not only in the United States but around the world.-I believe in that he’s one of those messengers that God sends to help the whole nation.
Im confused. I know Obama is running for president. And we must examine his
judgement, but “my goodness” All this crap about Rev. Wright to try to scare whites
into believing Obama is a “Black Power” guy is a bit ridiculas. And just reading these comments makes me wonder what type of “Christianity” is practiced here. Calling for these mens heads, awesomely resembleing the tactics of a lynch mob, that would quickly assemble if the mere thought that a “black” had got out of line. We will show him! They would yell. Now have moved on from the dark past, but have we?
Have Rev. Wright fought for this country as a marine and earned the right to speak his mind without it being a scandal. Whites are so quick to take credit for how far this country has come, but when stuff like this happens they may need to look at themselves a little closer. Black citizens can love this country without acting is if this country is not capable of commiting some hanas acts. Back in the day, as well TODAY. Come on now keep it real. You conservative “Revisionist”.
Sambe,
The only thing Obama is doing is uniting everyone against him, and his far left loony ideals. How in the hell can you equate him surrendering Iraq, and “talking” with a country that wants to exterminate Israel (Iran) to bringing peace? Are you suffering from the same affliction as Richard?
Barak Hussein Obama is the most dangerous politician the communists on the left have ever put forth. He is not the last, and presumably not the worst they will do, but he is the first who has complete disregard for our constitution. I think we will survive this time, but we won’t always survive. Someday the communists on the left will manage to foist a trojan horse on us. With their control of the Democrat party, of the media, of the judiciary, and of the education system, it is just a matter of time. No optimism here. We have paved the road to hell and we are traveling on it. I just want to go slow. McCain for president.
Wright converted to christianity because the job of hateful Muslim demagogue was already taken by Louis Farrakan.
Well Said Charles! I was beginning to fear that i was the only person that actually thinks on this website.
Rudy, please dont associate me with Sambe. I was just as disgusted, if not more so, by his statement as you.
Jim… really? Communists? Communists control the Democratic party AND the media AND the judiciary AND the education system? wow. we are really screwed. how in the world have we lasted this long!!!??!?
okay, im better now. Democrats can barely control themselves, and with any sort of guidance they would probably be putting up a much better fight than they are now. If anything, their incompetance is proof of their innocence.
A smarter man than me once said, “A true conservative is one who can’t see any difference between radicalism and an idea”
Ok its like this. I dont like rock music. Have never been a fan. So if I were to go to a concert with the hottest rock group out there, and then begin to criticize their music, and their act. And pick apart everything wrong with the concert would be stupid of me.
I dont like the music form so it wouldnt matter how good or bad the act was. The same way alot of people are claiming objectivity when lending their “no spin” view of Obama.
It wouldnt matter what he did, or didnt do. You wouldnt care for him as your choice regardless. So stop with all of these nasty comments about our next president. Yeah I bet some of you never imagined you would be calling a brother “Mr. President” Boy I love it! Isnt this the greatest country in the world?
“Yeah I bet some of you never imagined you would be calling a brother “Mr. President” Boy I love it! Isnt this the greatest country in the world?”
No racial animus or stereotyping here. No, not at all.
Keep keeping it real and sticking it to the man. Word up!
Oh, and Richard, I’m still waiting on your explanation of how Wright is not engaging in a modern day blood libel by accusing Jews of creating biological weapons that target Blacks and Arabs only.
>>>Isnt this the greatest country in the world?
I’m glad you think so! We agree. Heck, we’re conservatives. We cornered the market on this is the greatest country in the world. Remember?
Instead try telling that to Michelle O. She doesn’t seem to think it’s all that great at all. Not too proud of our country says the angry woman who wants to be our First Lady. She thinks this great country is “downright mean.” Remember?
Neither does Rev. Wright, the bitter guy who would swear in Michelle O’s husband at the White House. He’s not too fond of it either as I recall.
“Well Said Charles! I was beginning to fear that i was the only person that actually thinks on this website.”
It surely is persuasive when you call people who disagree with you idiots.
Richard,
“Jim… really? Communists? Communists control the Democratic party AND the media AND the judiciary AND the education system?”
Communist ideology, now known as Marxist, Progressive or Socialist ideology is alive and well in Europe and in leftist America.

I hate Communism, Marxism, modern radical Socialism and Progressivism. I hate those ideologies, which are alive in America on your side, because they are evil ideologies.
I love America because this nation was conceived in God-given liberty, and liberty is alive in America - it is the beating heart of America.
America stands for equality of opportunity and equality before the law. Communism, Marxism and radical Socialism stand for economic equality enforced by a totalitarian Socialist state - equality of a low order for the ordinary man, but of course a high order for the ruling Socialist elite.
America stands for God-derived and irreversible human rights - the right to life, liberty and pursuit of happiness. Radical Socialism, i.e.: Communism, stands for government-derived human rights - those, of course can be reversed or ignored at will by the elite Socialist rulers.
America stands for government which derives its power from the consent of the governed, and where the people have been declared to have the right to alter or abolish its government if it becomes destructive of their rights to life, liberty and pursuit of happiness. Communism and radical Socialism rule in spite of the will of the governed, and without their consent. Communist and radical Socialist rulers despise the “little people” that our founding fathers died to empower in this blessed nation.
Richard, one thing I haven’t heard from you: Do you love the America I’ve described above - the America envisioned in the Declaration of Independence?
Richard, will you state publically that you hate Communism, Marxism, radical Socialism and all such ideologies?
