“Mark these words: Obama is toast. His political future cannot survive this.”
If love of country, common sense and simple logic had anything to do with this race, I would agree. ;>)
How many time will Alan scream “guilt by association” before the ugly wart that is his head explodes?
This is still going to Denver. Neither Hillary or Obama is going to drop out at this point.
Yes...H & C at 9 and Anderson Cooper on CNN at 10 (eastern)
Don’t tell me this isn’t HUGH and SERIES- Obama is going to appear on the detested FOX NEWS.
Was that my church? Kidding, I know it wasn’t. One of my pastors tried that... once.
you and I understand this, but others might not
I have been laying the groundwork for this to anyone who mentions Obama’s name...just a comment that Obama’s church is a militant black church not a Christian one.......I am hoping this sticks
Barry's following this racist preacher for so many years is only one reason that he shouldn't be our president. The other is that he has no major accomplishments throughout his life.
$ 22 + grand is a whole heck of a lot of association!
he won’t drop out..not unless he comes under immense pressure from the DNC..he’s going to fire back at hillary in some way..he’s too close to the prize now..full fledged war..
Wright -——
Racism is how [America] was founded and how this country is still run. No black man will ever be considered for president, no matter how hard you run Jesse [Jackson] and no black woman can ever be considered for anything outside what she can give with her body. . . .
[America] supported Zionism shamelessly while ignoring the Palestinians and branding anybody who spoke out against it as being anti-Semitic. . . . We care nothing about human life if the end justifies the means. . . .
[America] started the AIDS virus . . . [America is] only able to maintain our level of living by making sure that Third World people live in grinding poverty. . .
Did you get the link I posted for the new info on Rezko contributions? Upthread..
I saw that after I got excited and pinged for you....sorry!
He’s only appeared twice on Fox, right...both with the Friends the morning after primaries where it was all happy talk.
Awesome. Hannity has been all over this like Rosie O'Donnell on a honey glazed ham.
How about a dirty martini and a couple olives as a snack?...
Hitlery's camp was just WAITING to hear him say those words.....HIS GOOSE IS COOKED! Watch for the video to show up sometime next week...BANK ON IT!!!!

The Old Uncle Problem [Yuval Levin]
It is amazing how little Senator Obama has so far felt compelled to say about Rev. Wright, and how dismissive and basically silly what he has said has been. That Wright is on the brink of retirement as Obama said today (see Rich’s post below) hardly helps explain why the Obamas would for years sit through (and want their kids to listen to) some of the sermons weve now been hearing and seeing, and would have Wright marry them and baptize their children etc.
But by far the most absurd response has been the crazy uncle answer. Wright, Obama said, is like an old uncle who says things I don’t always agree with. But the key to the crazy uncle scenario is that you have no choice but to put up with himhes your uncle, so he has to be at family gatherings and you do too. None of us chooses our family, and the unchosen family sometimes comes with unavoidable attachments we would never willingly choose, but must abide. Even if the uncle is your uncle by marriage, you didn’t choose him. That is decidedly not the case with ones pastorparticularly in a church Obama didnt grow up in from childhood, and a church so thoroughly defined by the personality and appeal of a particular pastor. He chose it willingly, and he has remained a member willingly. In discussing his decision to join Wrights church in The Audacity of Hope, Obama himself says It came about as a choice and not an epiphany. (p. 208) It seems from that book, in fact, that Wright was much more than just a pastor at the nearest church to his house; he was the man who brought Obama to accept the faith and be baptized. He didnt just baptize Obamas kinds, but Obama himself. Hardly a crazy uncle.
As more of what Wright has had to say comes out, its hard to imagine how this problem goes away without a much more assertive explanation or response from Obama.
