Day of “change” . . . anyone see any change yet?

Ah, President Obama has been sworn into office bringing hope and change.

Obama dropped his previous pastor when the public became aware of Rev. Wright’s racism.  Today’s inaugural benediction prayer was given by Rev. Lowry who, unfortunately, seems to hold the same views as Wright.

Judge for yourself.  Here’s the transcript of some of the prayer:

‘Lord, in the memory of all the saints who from their labors rest, and in the joy of a new beginning, we ask you to help us work for that day when black will not be asked to get in back, when brown can stick around… when the red man can get ahead, man; and when white will embrace what is right. That all those who do justice and love mercy say Amen. Say Amen’

Ah, a focus on skin color and the assumption that “white” isn’t embracing what is right.  Now how would those of African decent feel if I were to say the following in a prayer the whole nation was listening to?

“God, please help us work toward a day when blacks stop doing wrong.”  -Rev. Me

I’d be branded a racist… and rightly so if I said such a vicious racial generalization as that.  However, the current unwritten rule is that liberal minorities can’t be racists – thus, the mainstream media will ignore this blatant example of racist rhetoric as if it never happened.  Typical.

I guess Obama’s first big change was to make the inaugural benediction prayer a divisive, racist political commentary.  Nice change.  What next???
