Politically Drunk On Politics ^ | 05/30/2008 | Jarid Brown

I started this post yesterday morning after running across an article about Michelle Obama’s fundraiser Wednesday in Pasadena. After starting the article, I thought “old news” and decided to move onto another subject. Anyways, things have changed…

Michelle Obama attended a private $500 a plate fundraiser on Wednesday in Pasadena. The fundraiser expected to over $200,000 for the Obama campaign was not open to the press.

Pasadena Councilman Victor Gordo, listed as a host for the event, spoke to Pasadena-Star News Reporter, Janette Williams after the event. Gordo Commented, “she did suggest that should Barack Obama be in the general election with John McCain, it should not be a contest over who has the craziest minister”.

There is no doubt following yesterday’s release of the Pfleger Tape that ObaMSNBC and other media outlets will began replaying tapes of Hagee and downplaying the Wright relationships of Obama. But what is it that keeps Obama supporters and the Olbermann-like reporters who have a man-crush on Obama to lose their ability to be rational. Let’s actually look at the facts:...

Of course. Why would anyone enter such a contest?? The winner is already known before the judging starts.

"it should not be a contest over who has the craziest minister"

Of course she'll say that because the Obamas win that contest without debate. McCain's own actual minister has never been at issue b/c there's no indication he's ever indulged in any lunatic, hateful, and/or depraved preaching ala Jeremiah Wright. So the left has to go after a couple of ministers who endorse McCain to try to even the score, but that's pathetic....

Someone should ask Micky how many years McCain sat in Hagee’s church and how many of his kids were baptized by him.

No, it’s a contest to see who has the craziest wife.

Correct.

It is an election to choose a candidate that does not have the atrocious judgment to voluntarily go to listen to hate speech every Sunday for 20 years.

The contest is aparently between Obama’s ministers to determine WHICH is the craziest.
