JACKSON, MS (WLBT) - Reverend Jeremiah Wright commented Thursday on
the controversy surrounding his fiery sermons brought up during
President Barack Obama's campaign for the White House and the angry
opposition to the historic new healthcare law.
...
Asked if he regretted any of his controversial sermons Wright said,
"I haven't been apart of any controversy, number one. Fox News bought
4-thousand dollars worth of tapes 20-years to go back to see what Obama
had been listening to. Those sermons that they aired and news clips
that the nation saw were 5-years old and 7-years-old, so that was not
part of the presidential campaign. The media made the controversy; not
Jeremiah Wright."
And on the name calling and anger over the health care law, Wright
said, "..it's all part of that kind of hatred that runs in the country
for people of color and for the poor. In fact, the whole compromise; it
took the public option off the table in terms of the health care bill
shows you the power of the rich and the wealthy in this country to
continue to ignore the poor."
