The Truth About Reverend Jeremiah Wright's 9/11 Sermon

avatar

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. Click here for the full sermon.

He is vitriolic and over the top. No Candidate for President should have that in his baggage.
