Let’s just pretend for a second that Obama is telling the truth and he really didn’t know this side of his pastor—a man he’s been close to for 20 years.
What does this say for the character discernment of OB? What kind of cabinet would he choose if he can’t realize the true character of a person? What kind of judges would he appoint? How would he deal with foreign leaders?
It’s the old argument the left used on Nixon during Watergate. If he didn’t know, he’s an idiot. If he did know, he’s corrupt. And we all know what happened to Nixon.
