DISQUS

Pastor at Clintons' D.C. Church defends Wright

The Reverend Jeremiah Wright is an outstanding church leader whom I have heard speak a number of times," Snyder wrote. "He has served for decades as a profound voice for justice and inclusion in our society. To evaluate his dynamic ministry on the basis of two or three sound bites does a grave injustice to Dr. Wright, the members of his congregation, and the African-American church which has been the spiritual refuge of a people that has suffered from discrimination, disadvantage, and violence. Dr. Wright, a member of an integrated denomination, has been an agent of racial reconciliation while proclaiming perceptions and truths uncomfortable for some white people to hear. Those of us who are white Americans would do well to listen carefully to Dr. Wright rather than to use a few of his quotes to polarize."

I believe this needs as much airing as the Rev wright controversy. Why should she be able to get away with it?

She has degraded his reputation, by saying if it were her pastor she'd leave.

Please get this out there.

Tit for Tat.

Her dishonesty we don't need in the white house.

At least Obama has never said anything verbally. Only the pastor. Why should he take the heat for what others say.

I 've been told people don't agree with some of the things their pastor and priest have said.
But they've got to go to church somewhere.

They all have their sermons they believe in, and try to convince the congregation it's true.

They'll preach anything as long as they can, pass the collection basket at the same time.
