I have seen a like intro referencing crying at several left wing message boards a dozen times already.
OK, this is what we are up against people. Crybabies that start crying over political speeches! Unbeleivable! Just who ARE these people that would cry over a political speech given solely because the guy was backed into a corner over an issue? To CRY over it?
Here’s the video.

At thirty seven minutes it’s a long slog. Jeremiah Wright holds one’s attention much better!
That's true, but it's not the story.
The story is how, and why, whites are in denial about how many blacks agree with and approve of Reverend Wright.
We don't see, because if we did see, we couldn't live together with them any more.
It's no good to simply say "this deplorable strand of opinion is one that no candidate is bound to embody" IF it represents 80% of the blacks, as it probably does.
Yep, that's the untold story of Obama's church. They believe in liberation theology, which is warmed over socialism.
You got that right.I am glad I heard it live.
I’m a little concerned when folks seem to think a political speech given by someone who’s running for president can overcome plain facts: Obama’s spiritual leader is a radical leftist who cowardly misuses race to defeat his enemies.
Didn’t Elliott Spitzer give speeches filled with moral platitudes during the years he made friendly with his night owls? ;0)
Speeches mean little in the face of the obvious unless one can’t see the obvious.
“The most important aspect: Obama threw his white grandmother under the bus. Equating her with the hatemongerer Wright.”
Freudian slip? He hates that part of him.
A long while back on CSpan, they had the “reparations” crowd chanting and holding a protest.
One of the black girls said she was “poisoned” by having white blood in her from her ancestry(white slave owner that helped prolong her family)
I was taken back by the hatred in her voice.
MLK jr probably looked down and wept.
I cried too, but I was watching the TV in the kitchen while I was slicing onions.
Obama’s very sophisticated appeal IS racist
and now he has said so, directly
he has appealed to liberal whites’ guilt, letting them feel they can assauge their guilt by voting for a black
he has appealed to blacks, with the idea of re-enforcing the liberal supreme court rulings that mandate racial gerrymandering that says blacks aren’t represented unless their representative is black
now, he has pre-determined the 2008 election results as racially motivated if HE is not elected
the card he has attempted to lay down is one where, no matter his political philosophy, a black running for president (obama), according to obama will only be rejected because of his race
he is no different than j.jackson and a.sharpton, just slicker at it
That's the first time I heard him acknowledge any of his white relatives. Of course, I am not an avid student of his speeches, so I probably missed previous references.
Grandma must be in show business, where any publicity is good news.
In today's WSJ editorial page, there is an op ed titled "The Obama Bargain." It makes that point, and talks about how Obama has "turned his blackness to his political advantage" by making a bargain: Not to shame whites with America's past racism, in condition of whites not using his race against him.
Apparently many democrats like that bargain. How else to explain how a guy with no record and lots of empty rhetoric is so popular?
Well not in those words. He said it OBAMASSIAH style. See post #46.
Me too.
Out of frustration, anger and exhaustion of hearing even more racial whining.
Over and over and over.....
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!!!
Blacks aren't the only people in America that had it rough, grew up poor, had to work at hard labor.
How long do they expect to get a ride on the slavery issue?
Any living blacks in America that were slaves of white Americans have my ehartfelt sympathy.
The rest need to shut up about it and build a life through their own hard work, just like the rest of us have to do.
Liberals who can be made to feel guilty for things they haven't done, i.e., people who don't think, just feel.
Not me. It was nothing but hollow words.
They aren't called the loony left for nothing.
Whatever anyone does, don’t ask Crissy Matthews what he has running down any part of HIS body right now - we don’t want to know : )
As for me, I want to ask Obama to pony up money so I can buy a new B.S meter—my old one blew up during his speech.
