Democratic convention chief wants reparations for blacks
The woman commissioned by the Democratic Party to direct its presidential nominating convention in two weeks espouses the same black liberation theology pursued by Rev. Jeremiah Wright, whose church presumptive nominee Barack Obama was forced to leave because of its controversies.
Those included Wright’s condemnation of America and a vicious attack on Hillary Clinton from the pulpit, and WND reported when, finally, the Obama campaign announced the candidate resigned his 20-year membership in the church.
Now a profile in the New York Times reveals Rev. Leah Daughtry, a Pentecostal minister who leads a congregation of 20 in Washington, embraces “black liberation theology” beliefs such as the “debt” the U.S. “owes” all blacks for slavery.
The Times describes the congregation in which Daughtry was raised – the House of the Lord Church in Brooklyn, N.Y., where generations of family members, including her father Herbert Daughtry, have preached for decades: “Below the sanctuary, in the fellowship hall, a banner for slavery reparations proclaimed, ‘They Owe Us.’ Fliers recounted Herbert Daughtry’s arrest, a few weeks earlier, as he led marchers protesting the not-guilty verdict in the police killing of Sean Bell, an unarmed black man.
His ministry has always combined consuming spirituality with black liberation theology – the theology Jeremiah Wright invoked this spring to defend his controversial sermons – and zealous political activism. Leah holds these forces within her.”

Democratic convention chief wants reparations for blacks
This is a couple of days old, I guess I missed it with all the excitement and activity of our trip to California, so, I’ll just go ahead and opine a bit now.
I will be more than happy to pay reparations to blacks that were enslaved, as soon as these dumbass Dems show me when I personally owned a slave, when I personally sold a slave, when I personally abused a slave or when, at ANY point in time, I stated that I personally supported slavery.
Until such time as that event is held up as an indisputable truth, the Dems, the reparations idiots, welfare slugs in general, anyone that believes in reparations and that ugly woman in the picture on WND, can ALL kiss my big Texas ass, collectively, or individually, makes me NO difference.
And before anyone feels it their duty to point it out, for the umpteenth time, YES, I have always admitted the fact that I am a racist, I make no apology for that statement of fact either, it’s the truth and I will NOT apologize for telling the truth.
But let’s face even more facts, nearly every person on this earth is a racist, in one way or another, to one degree or another, some of us are just more honest about it than others.
All these reparations people are doing is trying to instill *White Guilt* in some weak minded fools and score some easy money, money that they didn’t have to work for. There’s the *welfare slug* mentality.
No person alive today ever owned a black slave during the time period the reparations moonbats are claiming, no black person alive today was a slave during the time period the reparations lunatics site for payment.
Making blanket reparations for slavery in early Americana would be akin to paying child support for someone else kids.
If I’m going to pay someone for something that happened 100 years ago, I had better get my lawn mowed for it.
In another blog I read mentioning this, it also said that the person who was arrested, had VERY close ties to Wright’s church, while Obama claimed to have cut all ties with them.
McCain may be a left-leaning GOP candidate, but at least he is not a liar.
Do I even have to say it…
Tish, you are absolutely the best…
This woman has a congregation of twenty (20) people and she was chosen for her “strong guidance, skilled leadership and counsel”. Twenty people is a sign of skilled leadership? If she built a congregation of 2,000 people, I could agree with that but only 20 people? But then, Obama’s leadership credentials are those of a community organizer.
I think we knew this was coming. I’m with you Fred, I never had slaves, my parents and grandparents never had slaves, so no money from me. But … we won’t have a choice. The government robs us blind in taxes and they spend them however they want. By government, I meal life-time politicians who have lost contact with what the PEOPLE want.
Probably right, there’s not more than a handful of us that are willing to stand up to the RNC and tell em NO, why the hell should we expect that there could actually be any effort put into calling and emailing legislators??
America is in a world of shit and all people do now is say, “Well, we can’t DO that”…
Why the hell not?? We have the power of the vote, and until that too is taken away because the American people are too lazy and apathetic to take a stand and fight, as long as we have the power to take their positions away, congress WILL do our bidding…
But it WILL NOT happen as long as people say CAN’T…
Can’t never could and NEVER will…
These something for nothing theives or the first order have been pounding this beat for a hundred years.
These people live in America with all the freedoms and ability to make themselves. To Make themselves means they have to work for it and they are far to lazy to do that. The few who have succeeded are mostly ignored because they would have to admit to hard work as the source of success.
Just like the crazies in New Orleans expecting the government to give them millions of dollars for doing absolutely nothing.
I never owned a slave. I owe nothing.
Perhaps reperations should be paid to all us white people because our ancesters brought them here. They could still be in Africa.
Jut want to make sure I understand this. The party that has scrubbed it’s site of any black law history (courtesy of The American Spectator) is saying we should pay reparations for a class of people THEY created, kept oppressed, and held down for so long? This same group is saying ALL OF US need to pitch in and pay for THEIR mistakes and errors?
Picture me waving the biggest BS flag possible at that one…
Think I’m kidding about the history? An excerpt, if I may:
And that’s only five of the fourteen items listed as missing from the DNC’s history on their own web site. Yah, let’s trust the country to the party that can’t remember it’s own doings…
When this issue comes up, let’s just send in Cary. ‘Nuff said.
