By refusing to confirm or deny the Jeremiah Wright thing was true or not until after the election (turns out Obama didn't listen to those amazing sermons), Obama allowed the GOP propaganda machine to trick Black socialist voters into thinking Obama was much more based than he actually was.
The GOP's brazen lies about Dems play a significant role in tricking left lesser-evil voters into believing that lib reformists are hiding their power level.
I apparently misremembered, Obama did deny hearing Wright's speeches during the campaign. The point I made still stands though - the GOP tried to smear Obama by presenting him as more radical than he actually was, as part of a pattern of behavior that inevitably is gonna mislead a few radical and progressive voters.
He threw his pastor under the bus when his pastor's extremely based "god damn america" sermon went viral.
holy shit this is so cool I'm watching it now
"god damn america for treating its citizens as less than human" is a line that is extremely good and accurate
Its the intro to Pod Damn America... and its quite lovely.
set to donkey kong music
I never knew what that was from. But I watched the whole thing and it’s amazing
Damn it's just as based as I imagine.
I thought Boondocks was overestimating how based it was but nope.
