Is his campaign headed for a tailspin not because of an underlying incident involving his pastor, but because of the way he responded to the maelstrom?
History is full of such mistakes. Richard Nixon wasn't forced to resign because of the Watergate break-in but because of the cover-up. The House impeached Bill Clinton for lying under oath, not for his sexual peccadillos. Larry Craig got jammed up not for his men's-room two-step, but for his ludicrous denial.

That is quite a coup Sir. That’s evidence that Obama has listened to (and not walked out of) Wright’s “Hate Whitey” speech.
HIllary has got to be LOVING this!

Obama: “The batteries in my hearing aid died..”
I have posted your snippet #1 on the “OBAMA ON THE COVER OF REVEREND WRIGHT’S TRUMPET MAGAZINE” thread (with attribution). Nice work.
This is not the media twisting words and making up stories. We can all witness exactly the statement Wright makes along with all the hatred and vitriol he delivers them with! That he means every word there can be no doubt and Barack Obama has supported it all for 20 years and if he didn’t, he certainly had the obligation to speak out about it long before now!
At the very least, one must question the judgment of a man who exposes his two young daughters to this hate, as he has willingly exposed himself for the past 20 years for whatever reason. Michelle obvioulsy got the Wright message, as did the entire congregation, as will the daughters.
Does Barack have a major hearing problem? Or is her too crafty by half?

Obama has a major “cover-up” problem.

I have no idea how a member of a black church that apparently feels it owes greater allegiance to Africa than to America and that pays homage to a bigot like Farrakhan, has the gall to present himself as the one candidate who can bring us all together.

It’s getting bigger, it’s not going away, and something truly awful is going to happen to the Democrat Party.
This has opened the door on a degree of hatred and racism so sickening it’s hard to grasp.
I have an idea...
All propaganda has to be popular and has to accommodate itself to the comprehension of the least intelligent of those whom it seeks to reach.
By the skillful and sustained use of propaganda, one can make a people see even heaven as hell or an extremely wretched life as paradise.
If you tell a big enough lie and tell it frequently enough, it will be believed.

Brilliant find, BTW: it’s gonna be hard for him to deny any of what he wrote in his own autobiography, ay.
DownUnder, we call that “hoist by his own petard!”
Ouch.
Here’s some Farrakhan gems that Obama must not have heard.
“In March 2000 the Philadelphia Inquirer quoted Farrakhan saying, “White people are potential humans … they haven’t evolved yet.” At other times, he has referred to whites as “vicious beasts” and “the skunks of the planet.” Additional noteworthy Farrakhan statements include the following:
“It is an act of mercy to white people that we end your world. … We must end your world and bring in a new world.”
“We [blacks] are at war and we never stop fighting for justice. You must have force. … don’t drop your gun and don’t forget to squeeze.”
“You [Jews] are wicked deceivers of the American people. You have sucked their blood. You are not real Jews (who everyone knows were black) You are the synagogue of Satan, and you have wrapped your tentacles around the US government, and you are deceiving and sending this nation to hell… . But if you choose to crucify me (subtle reference to the Deicide charge), know that Allah will crucify you.”
And they gave this guy an award?
I’m not stupid. When you rant and hate and fill the air with ugly racist garbage, it isn’t some “cultural” value.
It is HATE.
Lie down with dogs. Get up with fleas.
Or in that most famous of pithy sayings:
“Don’t pee on my back and tell me it’s raining”
It is really going to be interesting to see how Obama zigs and zags the evident bias and Anti Americanism of the Church he has been attending for 20 years, not to mention the "blame Whitey" attitude of Reverand Wright.
