Rev. Jeremiah Wright Joke Roundup

Wednesday April 30, 2008
Obama's Cross to Bear "Barack Obama is suffering from a bad headache today. His former pastor, Reverend Wright, is back out there. Reverend Wright gave an interview earlier tonight on PBS with Bill Moyers, and he said he's gotten over a million emails and phone calls telling him to keep on speaking out, and every one of them came from Hillary Clinton. It was amazing." --Jay Leno

"The State Department announced today the most dangerous place in the world is no longer the Mideast, it is now between Reverend Jeremiah Wright and a microphone." --Jay Leno

"Hillary Clinton said if her pastor had made the comments that Reverend Wright had made, she would have left that church. Interesting distinction she makes. She also says if her pastor had been blown by Monica Lewinsky, she would have stayed." --Bill Maher

Barack Obama and Rev. Jeremiah Wright "Barack Obama addressed some of the more controversial comments made by his long-time minister, Jeremiah Wright. The guy said some crazy stuff, like, gays caused 9/11, Hurricane Katrina was God's revenge for our sins. Oh, I'm sorry. That's Pat Robertson. That's the other side's nutball minister. I'm sorry. You know, there's so many nutball ministers in this thing, I'm confused as to which one is on which side." --Jay Leno

I forgot the exact date that the Reverend started overloading his mouth with his ass. So one has to wonder, was Clinton or any of her influential followers in the Chicago area 1-2 weeks prior to this “speech” Given the fact that the Reverend has never been any inluence on the national seen and a chance for recognition, could he have been bribed to say or do these things. Read or watch “The Clinton Chronicles”.
