There is only one news story that demonstrates fulmination and that is the one about Obama’s spiritual leader. Someone sent me a clip from youtube and I had to turn off the computer and walk away before I became an example of fulmination and through my computer screen.

Morning Tioga and everyone.

The sermons of Rev. Not-So Wright are symptomatic of the misguided fulmination of a diseased mind.

[TruthShallSetYouFree]

Reverend Wright’s church, where Africanization
Led to ugly and crass fulmination
Has a strange congregation
Causing much consternation
Typical Whites hate this Obamanation

[xsmommy]

Pat Buchanan fulminates about the Reverand's now-famous fulminations.

[tioga]

Of course!

[grey_whiskers]

Reverend Wright's Fulmination
On what is wrong with this nation
is not "Who is John Galt?"
but "It's all whitey's fault!"
To Obama's consternation

Cheers!

Obama will not win independents and pubbies with that speech. The religious right is not gonna fall for it. Who does that leave?

[tioga]

No one fulminates like a preacherman! A+++++

Barack says we need to have a conversation about race in America.

Fair enough. But this time, it has to be a two-way conversation. White America needs to be heard from, not just lectured to.

This time, the Silent Majority needs to have its convictions, grievances and demands heard...

Amen, Brother Patrick! AMEN!

[tioga]

Obambi only developed consternation when his poll numbers started to fall.

Check out this of our last two NY governors.....I am mesmerized:

When Mr. Obama refused to denounce the bigoted diatribes of his “spiritual leader” with the strongest fulmination he showed himself to be unfit for leadership at any level. If his desire was to inspire a fulmination within the press, Clinton campaign and even among many of the demographic groups that were supporting him he succeeded beyond any foreseen expectations. By trying to excuse and justify the animosity and hatred spoken by his “pastor” he has set back the progress that had been made toward improving the civility and respect between the races by many years.
