Over at the Huffington Post today, Sam Stein wrote a good article titled, "Pastor of Clinton's Former Church: Don't Use Wright to Polarize" , and quoted the Pastor of the Church the Clinton's used to attend while Bill was president, the Foundry United Methodist Church in Washington D.C., who supports Rev. Wright.
I lifted one paragraph and quote it below:
"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."
Along with some others, I'm trying to find the sermon or speech that contains Rev. Wright's alleged comments about the U.S. Government being behind the AIDS epidemic. So far I've found nothing and neither has anyone else. This shouldn't be so difficult since it's the single biggest outrage among all the faux outrages that Wright is supposed to have said. Once put into context all the other outrages are not outrageous at all, merely truths.
HRC seems untroubled by aggravating the injustice for her own purposes.
