He hasn’t told us if he ever sat down with Calypso Louie.

He probably won’t until after he’s the nominee, and its revelation with finish him.

Well if you take a look at the futures markets this thing appears to be only a bump in the road for Obama.

“Bill did us just like he did Monica Lewinsky” - Reverend Wright.

Hooray Reverend Wright!

Speaking truth to power?

His comments are great when he gets specific, instead of the rhetoric and generalities.

Vast Wright-Wing Conspiracy anybody?

Given the fact that most Rats agree with every word this “preacher” says, and that an issue like this one raised in March is sure to be Long Gone in September, why did Obama even bother with his inane explanation, that’s my question.

If this matter were going to have any meaningful impact between now and the Convention, Rodham would be out there beating her drum now. And the Rats can just find all kinds of “associations” McCain has or had to neutralize the Rev. Wright issue later on.

What’s to apologize for, anyway? Certainly Michelle Obama has made it clear the Obamnas hate America and blame America for just about everything they can.

The apology just alienates their base at a time when they are still consolidating it. Plus, it opens up all the problems that go with the “defense of the lie” syndrome. Now, Obama will have to further play out the act of not knowing that his “spiritual advisor” is a Marxist maniac. I thought Bashful Barack was gonna be smarter than Bubba Bill—??

Obama’s response to his pastor/mentors anti-American beliefs and his venomous race-hate is not an explanation of why he was attracted to this profane preacher and why he gives him credit for his inspiration. However, abetted by the New York Times, Washington Post, the networks of CBS, NBC, ABC, NPR, and other liberal Democrat shills he will get a pass as usual. Need anyone say, “what if he was a Republican’ or “what if he were white?”

Did anyone see Bob Beckel last night on Foxnews. I think it was just before Obama came on to “defend” himself.

He was getting all sorts of mad. I don’t understand why the media, by default, jumps in to defend this kind of crap.

I guess I’m young.

Unfortunately the only people STEAMED about the RACIST bigot Wright are bloggers and FOX. Have you noticed the majority of articles are from websites and NOT from the MSMwhores? By Monday this will be a dead issue....BANK ON IT! RATS are scumbags and they know how to lie, cheat,destroy only pubs...include McRAT as one of them!
