I think Hillary will be upset she is defending Obama instead of her.

[JaneNC]

Why not? He has been a friend and member of the hate filled church for 20 years.

[tobyhill]

Eleanor, too late.

The bottom line is Obama knew Wright was a racist, did nothing to disassociate himself from the man for twenty years and even now that the truth is out - won't disown him. That's all the insight one needs into Obama's soul.

I saw Bill dodge the question on Greta last night.

[Izzy Dunne]

Hillary Clinton took screeching lessons from Eleanor Clift.

Judge him on his judgment and values. Imagine who Obama would choose for SCOTUS.

Don’t Judge Obama on Rev. Jeremiah Wright’s Remarks

We aren't.

We are judging Obama on his silence regarding those remarks prior to the time that Wright's racism and hatred for America was publicly exposed and Obama could now longer afford to wallow in that racism and hatred for America every Sunday.

I’ll judge him how I please Eleanor.

He failed nearly everything I look for in a candidate, this was just another serious failing that has woke some people up. Maybe they will look more closely now and see the rest.

The bottom line is Obama knew Wright was a racist,

Obama and his wife are also racists - - read Obama's "Dreams," and the bride's thesis.

I keep thinking how little charity Eleanor would feel if this was a Republican.

[quark]

Eleanor Rodham Clift, after years of having her lips welded to Hillary's @$$, crosses over to the dark side (pun intended).

[goldstategop]

Exactly. Obama's silence spoke volumes and he never really explained why he thinks a man who hates America, hates whites and Jews and who defends Arab terrorists, the 9/11 hijackers and Cuba could be a good man. Not in my book.

Sure Eleanor, we always believe you.... NOT!!!!

STFU.

[kingattax]

Judge him on his judgment and values. Imagine who Obama would choose for SCOTUS.

that is a thought too horrible to contemplate.

[Phantom Lord]

We can’t judge Obama by his 20 year association with the Racist Rev., but all of liberal media judges republicans who speak at Bob Jones Univ. as clearly supporting or at least not objecting to their policies regarding interracial dating and others.

[Dionysius]

Eleanor Clift? I thought someone dropped a house on her long ago.

[OeOeO]

Seperated at birth

[Spok]

To Eleanor Clift, the only sin in the world is not being a liberal. Her unyielding defense of Bill Clinton on The McLaughlin Group made me start watching the show for the sheer wonder of it. The women’s blind, dogmatic loyalty to the cause is exceeded only by her ignorance. She tops my list of the most unabashedly foolish women of the millenium. She redefines stupidity. (Have I left anything out?)

[massgopguy]

Okay, we’ll judge him on his own record. ??????????
