Fuck you BOWTIE wearing FREAK!!!

Feb 7th, on his show, Tucker Carlson said this:

So Barack Obama is a member of a church called Trinity United Church of Christ. It's a predominantly black church in Chicago, that espouses something called the "Black Value System," which includes calls for congregants to be "soldiers for black freedom" and a, quote, "disavowal of the pursuit of middleclassness." Now, it would seem to me, Tom, not to make a broad sweeping statement here, but a racially exclusive theology, a theology that ministers to one group of people, based on race, kind of contradicts the basic tenets of Christianity, and is worth talking about. Wouldn't you say?
...
Again, Christianity -- this is something that I am actually qualified to discuss -- is, it seems to me, almost explicitly anti-racial. The idea is that we are all equal in the eyes of God. And when you espouse a theology that is racially exclusive, as this appears to be, it's hard to call that Christianity. I think it's pretty easy to call it wrong.

Below is my response:

What exactly makes him qualified to talk about Christianity? Being Christian? Because I know a lot of folks in that camp that aren't qualified to discuss any aspect of Christianity. Certainly most Christian churches these days focus on racial inclusiveness, but that certainly was not always the case. Christianity has been used to exclude different races throughout history in ways that are completely supported in the Bible. Many events in the Bible are also undoubtedly racist.

He's also talking out of the wrong side of his ass on their values as well. Had the nefarious bow tie ever attended a black Christian church, he might realize that it's important for black communities to continue to strengthen their resolve for true equality.

I think that because he's a WHITE-whiny-ass-titty-boy, he can't handle the reality of of black folks exceeding the boundaries of our faulty class structure. To Tucker, black folks should look to the middle class as their highest acheivement, because we wouldn't want a black man to rise to the stature of ... oh I don't know ... President?
