Apparently he was quoting someone else, although it's hard to know where that quote left off and his own words began again.
Anyone got a link to the sermon in which Wright said "God damn America?"
(My personal take on this is that Wright is getting a lot of flak for what is primarily what one might call "preaching while black". That is to say, there really are a lot of extant injustices being done to blacks, and historically there have been many, many more...so one can hardly blame them for being pissed off about it. Not to say that I agree with everything he says, or consider his comments to be constructive...but I don't necessarily condemn him, either.)
