Obama’s pastor slurs Italians

More black liberation theology from Barack Obama’s spiritual mentor and pastor of 20 years, Rev. Jeremiah Wright. I’d like to know how this is any different than Don Imus’ “nappy headed ho”s” remark.

Rev. Jeremiah A. Wright Jr., pastor emeritus of Trinity United Church of Christ in Chicago where Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) has been a member for two decades, slurred Italians in a piece published in the most recent issue of Trumpet Newsmagazine.

“(Jesus’) enemies had their opinion about Him,” Wright wrote in a eulogy of the late scholar Asa Hilliard in the November/December 2007 issue. “The Italians for the most part looked down their garlic noses at the Galileans.”
[...]
“He refused to be defined by others and Dr. Asa Hilliard also refused to be defined by others. The government runs everything from the White House to the schoolhouse, from the Capitol to the Klan, white supremacy is clearly in charge, but Asa, like Jesus, refused to be defined by an oppressive government because Asa got his identity from an Omnipotent God.”

I wonder if he’s referring to the same god that he thinks should participate in the “holy activity” of “the destruction of the white enemy… by any means at their disposal.”
