Jeremiah's Lamentations
Posted: April 6, 2008
What Obama now laments about his pastor…
Jeremiah Wright is neither
prophet nor right on.
His prayer that God would damn our nation
went on much too long,
The Reverend Dr. Wright is left
about as left can be.
His sermons are political.
It's very plain to see
he hollers about Hillary.
He rails against the rich.
His altar calls are calls to alter
what the right has pitched.
And this Chicago clergyman
has shaped his friend Barack.
No wonder he keeps saying that
our boys should leave Iraq.
This Jeremiah's played a role
in what Obama says.
And knowing that, do you still want
Barack to be our Prez?
