Per ABC NEWS:
"Jesus said upon this rock I will build -- listen to the promise -- my church," Wright said. "And the gates of Hell -- listen to the promise -- the gates of Hell -- neither ABC nor CNN -- the gates of Hell -- neither Hannity nor O'Reilly -- the gates of Hell -- neither Time, Time magazine, Chicago Sun Times, Chicago Tribune ... the gates of Hell shall not prevail against it. Nothing will be impossible with God."
Wright said that "any preacher who dares to point out the simple ugly facts found in every field imaginable is demonized as volatile, controversial, incendiary, inflammatory, anti-American and radical."
The preacher who caused former parishioner President-elect Obama defending his use of demeaning language -- "garlic noses" -- to describe Italians in a past sermon. He said he'd been referring to "Emperor Augustus in Rome -- that's in Italy, dizzy blond on the View," Wright said in what seemed a reference to Elisabeth Hasselback of The View.
