"Sen. Barack Obama's pastor says blacks should not sing "God Bless America" but "God damn America."
An ABC News review of dozens of Rev. Wright's sermons, offered for sale by the church, found repeated denunciations of the U.S. based on what he described as his reading of the Gospels and the treatment of black Americans.
"The government gives them the drugs, builds bigger prisons, passes a three-strike law and then wants us to sing 'God Bless America.' No, no, no, God damn America, that's in the Bible for killing innocent people," he said in a 2003 sermon.

The article states this guy has been Obama's pastor for 20 years. I'm not sure I want a president who listens to stuff like that.
On a side note, why does his pastor think that building bigger prisons and increasing prison sentences for third-time offenders is anti-black?. What does being tough on criminals have to do with black people? I know it can't be that blacks commit more crimes because I was told it was racist to think that.
Have you ever seen Obama at his church? He pretty much just completely spaces out the whole time and occasionally looks around like "what am I doing here"
