Hillary Clinton Supporter PA Gov. Ed Rendell Praising Louis Farrakhan

POSTED BY: CubbyChaser

Huh?


 

I just watched this video of Pennsylvania Governor (then Philadelphia Mayor) Ed Rendell from back in 1997, and I don't understand it.

Why? Why? Why in the world would Ed Rendell be praising Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan?

I don't even mean that as an insult to Farrakhan (I'm sure he loves his kids, or whatever), but it just seems like a remarkably weird thing for a politician -- a Jewish politician -- to do. Didn't he realize that eleven years later, he would be a major player in the presidential race?

I can't imagine this will have a huge (or any) effect on the Pennsylvania primaries -- being that Rendell is an outspoken Clinton supporter -- but I wonder if this will make any waves in the wake of Obama's Jeremiah Wright "scandal." I mean, this would be equally as stupid.

  1. High profile politicians, including Barack Obama, are seeking to limit the American peoples’ access to on-demand, short term financial assistance. Some cities and towns are trying to impose restrictions on where these legitimate businesses can set up shop. Even worse, several states, including Georgia and North Carolina, have successfully imposed all-out bans on the industry, with several more attempting to follow suit. Citizens all across the nation are seeking to have their voices heard by fighting legislation that would obliterate the payday loan industry nationwide; Obama, and other misinformed political officials, are pushing for a complete ban in the name of personal political gain, regardless of the hundreds of thousands of potential lost jobs in an already turbulent economy.

  2. Dear Fellow Americans,

    Our Great-grand Nation, the United States of America
    is and will face very critical "Challenges" in coming
    years and decades.

    The Problems will be tough and solutions would not
    easy.

    The key will the cool, calm, and collectedness of our
    next President[ What I call Presidential Temperament'
    The one remaining candidate who has consistently that
    Presidential Temperament is Senator Obama.

    His message of change makes sense. We have to stop
    doing business in Washington old ways. The new ways of
    lifting each other up and stopping tearing each other
    down will not held our Great grand Nation. The
    Terrorists around the world[real] and inadvertently
    assisted by some shortsighted media [Who are party to
    this perpetuation of psychological terrorism of
    mis-information, dis-information, and duplicity], that
    is what we do not need.

    In order to send the message around the world that
    America is get Senator Obama our next president. At
    least on thing he has shown consistently is the
    presidential Temperament. The Temperament of our next
    president is very critical address internal and
    internal challenges. Let us defeat real external
    terrorists snd internal psychological terrorists once
    for all.

    God Bless out Great grand Nation, its diverse people,
    and Senator Obama. He is the ans her to our future
    stability, security, safety, and regain our status in
    the world.

    yours truly,

  3. Why, Why, Why in the world is Wednesday called, "Hump Day?" I will vote for the candidate who makes this a day with literal meaning.

    Hereforth let it be known I will only vote for a President who MANDATES humping on Hump Day. That's right. We're all gonna get laid.

    Paid for by the political committee of those who've been screwed by politicians.

  4. This is called political posturing and pandering. These type of politicains are not held to any bar. Bar is raised or goal posts are moved when somebody like Obama comes in the way to shape the future of this Greatgrand country. One is real terrorism and other is psychological terrorism and we the Americans have facing it for long time without our awareness.
