that the black churches are teaching their children to hate whites just like HAMAS teaches their children to hate Jews?

...the more they stay the same.

Perfect Demotivator for the Obama Administration

And yes, it was a speech, not a prayer.

As a Christian, Lowery knows he skipped the One Ingredient that would have qualified it as a prayer.

I was willing to chuckle off his comments about Red, Yellow, Brown, Black, and White.  He's an old man, from a struggle won.  His was a Reggie White moment we can keep in context, or we can make it a laughable exercise in self-righteousness.

I was more impressed with Obama's comments implying that racism is over in America.

Ask not what your country can do for you.  Ask what you can do for your country - Muslim, Khalil Gibran

Who on here believes that today's rhetoric was post racial?

The left is obsessed with race.

I'm glad Rev. Lowery cleared that issue up for me. Now, I know where I stand.

I do take one point of pride away from today's coronation. Americans fought and died to free a nation from a tyrant named Hussein, but we have elected and innaugurated a man named Hussein as our president.

I believe it says a lot about the people of this nation.

Then, we get a dipstick like Lowery up there reciting a racial prayer.

May this racist burn in hell if he doesn't turn his eyes toward God and repent.   It is people like him, Wright, Jackson, Sharpton and Pfleger, that keep racism alive.  These are not men of God, they are men that want to be worshipped as gods for their words.  Just more proof that Obama's choices are radical and out of touch with mainstream America. 

... WHINING!

....was doing right to black students at the University of Minnesota when he let them slide on paying for the typewriters he rented out 50 years ago when they were still called Negroes.

So STFU "Reverend".

This is just pandering to the populace using a series of racial insults and I feel insulted! It was absolutely uncalled for!

Better "Poem:"

I turn on the tube and what do I see
A whole lotta people cryin' "Don't blame me"
They point their crooked little
fingers at everybody else
Spend all their time feelin' sorry for themselves
Victim of this, victim of that
Your momma's too thin; your daddy's too fat

Get over it
Get over it
All this whinin' and cryin' and pitchin' a fit
Get over it, get over it

People need to chill out. Of course it's not racist. You must have been told numerous "black people can't be racist" and you know they certainly wouldn't lie to you.

As a black man born in the 60's in Montgomery, Alabama, I can say that there is considerable racism on both sides.  Unfortunately only the whites have been forced to deal with it.  We, black people, have been left off the hook. Until we are held accountable, black people will continue to be racist.  I feel that we will not be truly equal until we are held to the same standards as everyone else.  Obviously with a black man in the White House, we are still not considered equal.  If we were viewed as equal, there would be wholesale outrage about his comments in the media.  Judging by their silence, we still have a long way to go.

With that said,  I would like to defend God and black Christians. I have never attended a black church that preaches the type of hatred that Reverend Wright and Lowery subscribes to and I attend church nearly every Sunday.  As a matter of fact, most of the churches that I attend preach Jesus Christ and being born again.   

For people to assume that all black churches preach racial hatred are guilty of the same kind of racism that they are accusing Reverend Lowery.  You would have to assume that all black Christians are hypocrits and do not follow Christ.  Which is more believable?  That there are some black churches churches that preach racial hatred or that ALL black churches preach racial hatred?  During the Jim Crow days in the south, the KKK based their whole ideology on the bible.  Are we ti assume that all white people that attended church are alos guilty of the same racism?

So going forward, do not attribute the race baiting and hatred demonstrated by these EVIL preachers to all black Christians and churches.  To continue to do so would make you just as guilty of racism as they are.

On a final note.  How could white people have voted for a closet racist like Obama?  I wonder how they will feel in the future as Obama promotes black people like Reverend Lowry that hate them and hold them responsible for all of their problems.  Where are they now?  How do they feel about the speech (not prayer by the way).  Do they feel that he was right?  That is like me voting for David Duke or Bull Connor.  This reminds me of the black people that voted for George Wallace here in Alabama.  That was pure stupidity.  If the liberal white people would not have been duped by this race baiter, he never would have won office.   Now that he is in office, he slaps them in the face by allowing this race baiter to give the benediction.  Had we not vetted Reverend Wright earlier, he would have given the benediction.  If I was a white person, I would be mad at those liberal white people that were too stupid to see the obvious; that Obama is a racist and he will make white people pay.  Today was only the beginning.

Can you say reparations?  Stay tuned.

I saw Rev. Joseph Lowery's mockery of whites as a note of things to come from the Obama administration.

Obama was generous in his lies of hate- and race-baiting as he spoke to numerous crowds and spoke clearly his endless accusations that the Republicans in general, and John McCain specifically, would use race to pull down Obama and his campaign.

A complete fantasy that never even came close to being a reality, but Obama had to say these hate- filled and racist things nonetheless.

*shrug*

Not impressed by Obama's easy duplicity nor Rev. Joseph Lowery's not-so-well-hidden racism.

No matter what we do, no matter what we say, it will never be enough.  What I really don't understand is that the segregationalists were Democrats!!!  who brings race into the political arena? Democrats!  who ties behavior (good or bad) to race? DEMOCRATS.  I am sick and tired of this crap. People are people. Humans, period.

It would be nice if they judged you by your character not the color/ethnic/sex or whatever

Rev. Lowery wants to keep the race issue going. This is the only way that his kind keep themselves relevant.

Should any of use be surprised, given now that we have a president schooled in Black Liberation Theology, mentored by racial separatist, married to a whites-hating woman and how did not hesitate to play the race card, frequently, during the primaries and presidential campaign.

We're -- that is, we who are the majority and are Caucasian are-- now going to be subjected to four insufferable years, at least, of browbeating in one way or another by the racially separatist and angry tongues that race-baiter and race-card-player Obama unleashed in America.

Lowery was just the official beginnging.

And, of course, that any of us find what he said to be offensive or out of place are racist rednecks, honkies, whiteys, etc.

One thing, though: While Obama would like for us to forget it, he's cannot blot out his ancestry--and that still includes a white mother.

Nor can he blot out that his white grandparents helped raise him.

sounded to me like Rev. Joe "joe the racist" Lowery is the biggest bigotted idiot on the face of Gods good earth. That is the sort of prayer I would have expected to hear from a 12 year old kid joking with his freinds.

What happened about praying that Obama and the rest of the leaders of our nation to have wisdom to make theright decisions, or seek God for council.  I didn't hear a whole lot that would make me think Lowery was even spiritual.  It made me think he was a giant bigot and a spiritual midget at the same time.

Lowery, if he is saved, will be held acoutable for every word he spoke.  if he is not saved oh well off to hell anyway.
