Anti-American Obama

No doubt we will all be accused of racism again, no doubt the MSM will try to bury this too. More radical dear leader education. In his latest expose of the deeply ingrained, disturbing purpose of Barack Obama, Stanley Kurtz starts out Wright 101 this way:
It looks like Jeremiah Wright was just the tip of the iceberg. Not only did Barack Obama savor Wright’s sermons, Obama gave legitimacy — and a whole lot of money — to education programs built around the same extremist anti-American ideology preached by Reverend Wright. And guess what? Bill Ayers is still palling around with the same bitterly anti-American Afrocentric ideologues that he and Obama were promoting a decade ago. All this is revealed by a bit of digging, combined with a careful study of documents from the Chicago Annenberg Challenge, the education foundation Obama and Ayers jointly led in the late 1990s.

John McCain, take note. Obama’s tie to Wright is no longer a purely personal question (if it ever was one) about one man’s choice of his pastor. The fact that Obama funded extremist Afrocentrists who shared Wright’s anti-Americanism means that this is now a matter of public policy, and therefore an entirely legitimate issue in this campaign.
What did Barack and the Annenberg Challenge fund to the tune of $200,000 for children in Chicago in the winter of 1996? This was only the beginning of these grants:
Like other leaders of the rites of passage movement, Carruthers teaches that the true birthplace of world civilization was ancient “Kemet” (Egypt), from which Kemetic philosophy supposedly spread to Africa as a whole. Carruthers and his colleagues believe that the values of Kemetic civilization are far superior to the isolating and oppressive, ancient Greek-based values of European and American civilization. Although academic Egyptologists and anthropologists strongly reject these historical claims, Carruthers dismisses critics as part of a white supremacist conspiracy to hide the truth of African superiority.[snip]

Carruthers is a defender of Leonard Jeffries, professor in the department of black studies at City College in Harlem, infamous for his black supremacist and anti-Semitic views. Jeffries sees whites as oppressive and violent “ice people,” in contrast to peaceful and mutually supportive black “sun people.” The divergence says Jeffries, is attributable to differing levels of melanin in the skin. Jeffries also blames Jews for financing the slave trade. Carruthers defends Jeffries and excoriates the prestigious black academics Carruthers views as traitorous for denouncing their African brother, Jeffries. Carruthers’s vision of the superior and peaceful Kemetic philosophy of Ptahhotep triumphing over Greco-Euro-American-white culture obviously parallels Jeffries’ opposition between ice people and sun people.
So much for the Enlightenment--what do you think about that liberals? Not your usual bland rites de passage.

Barack--why is your hope based on hate? Why are your friends and allies so profoundly anti-American?

P.S. Kurtz references this Chicago Reader article from 1995.

UPDATE: The Trib's warming up to endorsing The One, Barry Obamski. John McCain is the one who's the nutcase. And yes Zorn, you have a stunted moral view. You guys are making me mad. What next?

Yet more, another memory jog: Obama's Faith in Action, Leah Daughtry, head of the Democrats Faith in Action team who espouses the same black liberation theology as the Rev. Wright, the same separatist sentiments. Written by Daniel Bergner in the NY Times magazine this summer. And this on Obama's modus operandi, Obama Haunted by Sleaze.
