Faux News messes with the wrong preacher.

Clickie, but don't trip on the hippies while you're there. They tend to lie around, piled two or three high, particularly in the rooms with windows, doors, or a pantry.

I personally got a lot out of every 12 minutes of it.

In or out of context, Jeremiah Wright is still a bigot, and for his bigotry should be flogged.

On someplace embarrassing.

It wasn't the initial clip I had a problem with, imitating whites in such a foul manner was bigoted. Not "loving". I'm glad there's whitey to go kiss his butt for the insult though....

Are people this stupid all over the world right now, or is this just an American thing?

Not that I'm brilliant, because I know my IQ, and it isn't brilliant. But wtf is wrong with people? Does Wright have to kick that guy's butt before he figures out that he just doesn't like him? He doesn't want that guy's love I am sure, for real.

Jeremiah Wright needs to be put in a box and have it sealed tightly for many years.

That's not nice... change box to a time capsule, to be PC.

Ok, Time capsule, and then shoot it to Mars. Ok, good idea. I'll buy the cement.

Lovely. Now I know why I don't like people. Let's actively promote violence against one jerk, because he's black.
Here's a question, specifically to Merc: are you also willing to promote violence against John Hagee for his vitriol against the Catholic church? Or Jerry Falwell for claiming that Katrina is God's punishment for faggotry?

I don't think it's because he's black. I think it's because he's a jerk.

Merc is more than willing to shoot time capsules to Mars containing any race, as far as I know.

By the way, merc and I have had our share of disagreements, that's for sure...but do you really call an outrageous claim to shoot time capsules to Mars "promoting violence"? Do you really think that will happen? Go to www.shoottimecapsulepeopletomars.com and you will see even they don't really advocate the practice.

Fair enough. If I'm wrong about the racism, then I'm wrong. I'll freely apologize if I am. I'd like an answer from Merc, though.
And yes, threatening to kill a specific person (in a silly way, admittedly) is a promotion of violence.

Yes, I'm not a big fan of violence, either.

Humor, however, is a hoot.
