From the Georgia Tipsheet:
The man who delivered the benediction at President Barack Obama's 2009 inauguration said that he believes again, as he once did in his "militant" youth, that all whites are hell-bound.Technorati tags:
The Rev. Joseph Lowery, a patriarch of the civil rights movement and close ally of the president, said at a weekend rally in central Georgia that the "level and hatred and bitterness" borne of this election had made him a believer that whites were going to hell.
According to the Monroe County Reporter, Lowery said he believed in his youth that "all white folks were going to hell." He mellowed, he said, later believing that not all whites would get their brimstone comeuppance. Merely "most" of them.

eistivldwDidn't everyone figure out that Reverent Wright was preaching this same stuff for 2008 election and Obama had sat in the pew for 20 years?? And claimed that he didn't know Wright was like that!
Yes, that's how it happened. Only the Obama campaign called the controversy "a distraction" and the mainstream media pretty much agreed.
