Obama’s Former Pastor Getting $1.6M Home in Retirement

This was supposed to be the week that the Rev. Jeremiah Wright Jr. returned to the pulpit to preach for the first time since his anti-American sermons generated nationwide outrage and drew condemnation from his longtime parishioner, Barack Obama.

But, citing security concerns, Wright canceled his speaking engagements in Florida and Texas. A spokeswoman at his former church in Chicago said his schedule is pending.

A two-week FOX News investigation, however, has uncovered where Wright will be spending a good deal of his timein retirement, and it is a far cry from the impoverished Chicago streets where the preacher led his ministry for 36 years.

FOX News has uncovered documents that indicate Wright is about to move to a 10,340-square-foot, four-bedroom home in suburban Chicago, currently under construction in a gated community.

Nice house...wish I had the funding to have one like that

That's quite a retirement package.

Understanding that this man dedicated almost four decades to the church, I can see them wanting to make sure he's taken care of after leaving.

That being said, I'd also think that a man of the church, especially a church that really hammers home the idea of taking care of the community and providing the poor, would want to live a little more modestly and perhaps have some of that substantial sum of money be dedicated to the causes he so passionately believes in.

Hell, I bash my country all the time, when it does things I don't believe it should. Not a whole lot of money it, though.

Selling Salvation. That's where the real money is.

Funny, if I said the things he has said I would be branded a racist. I got to tell you I'm gettin a bit tired of feeling like I need to apologize for being a middle aged white man.

If you were a school teacher and said some of his shit in class some parent would sue the school district and win.
