I have found my new mentor.

Forget about what he's saying, it's of no relevance.
It's his passion, and the way he fires from the hip.

Just one question though, why do those buggers to his right, the ones looking awkwardly into their bibles, keep sitting down and standing up.

That's how to rant Bart!
He would make a brilliant GAB.

Fire and Brimstone at its best! Can I get a hallelujah from the choir loft?

Wow. That was an impressive rant. Damn impressive.

I was totally expecting everything he said to be gibberish, but he actually made some valid points. It's too bad he won't reach anybody.

After hearing this rant I am not fearing God as much as I do the pastor.

Yes. There was a big to-do about it on Meet the Press Sunday morning. Apparently, his pastor, Reverend Jeremiah Wright, preached a sermon that stated "God damn America" is in the Bible.

QUOTE

No, no, no. Not God bless America. God damn America. That's in the Bible.

Obama replied and basically threw his grandmother under the bus. I thought it was a cheap shot.

QUOTE

I can no more disown him than I can disown the black community. I can no more disown him than I can my white grandmother - a woman who helped raise me, a woman who sacrificed again and again for me, a woman who loves me as much as she loves anything in this world, but a woman who once confessed her fear of black men who passed by her on the street, and who on more than one occasion has uttered racial or ethnic stereotypes that made me cringe.

The entire transcript of Obama's speech can be found here.
