Default It's a game

question is----will anybody fall for it.

It's not real. It's a "dog and pony show" probably set up by the both of them to try and salvage Obama's chances. The Rev. Wright has NOT been saying anything new in the last few days----that he hasn't said over the past 20 years. In fact, I'm sure he has said far worse. Obama knows it. And for him to stand up there now and ACT outraged is so disengenuous.

And even if you were predisposed to give Obama all the reasonable doubt in the world, the fact that he sat in a church for 20 years and DETECTED NOTHING negative of this man he called his mentor, doesn't say much about Obama's ability to judge character and make decisions.

Maybe the comments being aired were taken out of context. I heard the some context (not the full context, I admit) but more than the sound bites aired in the media and I tell you, it scared me. Scared me because Obama could be our next president and I don't really know what he stands for. If I am to judge him on his experience, his past behavior, then his refusal to leave this church after hearing this devisive, unpatriotic emesis can only lead me to draw three conclusions:
1. He truly believes in what Rev. Wright is saying, and,
2. He is changing his position now because he knows that it is a political liability, which means,
3. He lacks the integrity to stand for what he believes in.

I am neither a lemming to FoxNews nor am I a fool. If you think that I should not be concerned with this man's character, when he could be the leader of my country, then you are the lemming and the fool.
thanks for your observation. let's recognize that hillary similarly put up with a flawed, charasmatic fellow who embarrassed her repeatedly and yet she remains loyal to him

Yeah but she hasn't slept with him for the last 20 years.

20 YEARS Barry. 20 YEARS.

Note that Obama is outraged only after Wright said some unflattering things about Obama. Apparently, the fact that Wright spews anti-American venom does not prompt Obama to disown him. But if Wright says a few unflattering things about Obama.... Well, Obama is “outraged.”

Bye bye Obama

but she has been going to church with him during that time ... how is Obama remaining in the 3,000 member congregation worse than hillary remaining with bill?

To my knowledge, Bill never did anything nearly as egregious as saying that America gave black people AIDS. Now he may have given her an STD or two, but c'mon, not even in the same ballpark.

Um, Obama and Wright aren't sleeping with each other but you have a point.
Mr. Wright simply uses Mr. Obama because he can Mr. Obama can't shake him and Rev. Wright, instead of shutting up like he should is using this to flaunt himself and his racist notions
Rev. Wright shut your mouth! Please!
