New Boss Same as the Old Boss?

So out with Jeremiah Wright, in with the Rev. Otis Moss III.
It seems the good reverend has chosen Easter Sunday of all times and places to continue the wacky conspiracy-driven accusations of the right and the evil Republican Party in particular.
In his first sermon as pastor of the Chicago-based, Trinity United Church of Christ, Moss chose entitle his first rant, "How to Handle a Public Lynching", no doubt in reference to what Moss feels is a public outing and blaming for Barack Obama's recent media uproar concerning the former pastor's anti-Semetic, anti-government, anti-American rants.

Now Moss is apparently attempting to latch his own wacky wagon to the Obama train. On Sunday he called CNN the RNN (Roman News Network) the Washington Post the Jerusalem Post (although there is a paper called the Jerusalem post) and the New York Times the Palestine Times (although how calling the NYT the Palestine Times follows in line with Wright's line of thinking that America is anti-"Palestine" is kind of confusing-but the conotations are the same) and the NPR as "National Publican Radio" which could mean either the NPR is an extention of the Republican Party which is just too funny in and of itself, or Moss was making reference to the Merriam-Webster definition of publican:
13th Century: a) A Jewish tax collector for the ancient Romans
b) A collector of taxes or tribute
Which would, of course, keep in line with Wright's anti-Semetic rants and Barack Obama's (sort of) anti-Israeli stance.

This whole sermon, about the next "vast right-wing conspiracy" is obviously about the public outcry of Jeremiah Wright's, let's just say, dissatisfaction with white America (especially the rich-what does he say about priveleged, rich black Americans like, say, oh I don't know, BARACK OBAMA!?) and the American government as a whole...the white American government, I'm sure.

I predict with the youth and relative inexperience of this new pastor, he'll be in the news more often (until of course the MSM decides he's being treated unfairly and/or they get bored of the story (therefore dictating that America is bored of it as well) with more outlandish accusations and conspiracies.

The more things change, the more they stay the same. Jeremiah Wright would be proud.

The Roman News Network?
