A sentence I once read many years ago came to life before my eyes and ears yesterday as I listened to Barak Obama speak about race and Rev. Wright. The sentence read: The making of a great orator is more in his sound than in his sense. Certainly, even those of us “with untrained ears” — Jews, whites, damned Americans — could be seduced by Obama’s oratorical gift and grace. But let’s bust the sound bite bubble and get straight to the sense and nonsense of WHAT was said.
To start, does this make sense: “Not once in my conversations with [Wright] have I heard him talk about any ethnic group in derogatory terms.” If the reverend is indeed “like family” to Obama, does it fly with you that only at his pulpit before thousands of congregants, who could be anyone from the KKK to reporters, etc., that Wright feels comfortable to speak his mind about race and whites and about damning America, yet in the safe privacy of a conversation with Obama — who is like family to him and also an Obama who was on the rise and had potential to effectuate the “change” Wright preaches about — that only then the reverend would stop to express himself? Hmmm, sound likely?
There is not a person among us who has not at one time or another made a racist remark and most comfortably with our closest friends or family, all the while looking over our shoulder to make sure the Jew, the black, the Chasid, the Hispanic, the Muslim didn’t hear us. That this entire logic is spun on its head by Obama is sound bubble number one busted!

Not with her on her swipe at Bush but the rest is RIGHT on! Actually when you look at her Bush comment, it tells me something. Liberal Jews DO NOT like Obambi. Looks like Florida is in the Repub column.
Now to I am off to change my tagline.
IF YOU STAY IN THE PEW, YOU SHARE THE VIEW!!!!!
Love it!!!
just changing my tagline!
It is possible they sit around talking about how stupid the flock is, how well the con is going, and counting the weeks take.
yitbos
as I was listening to his “Teleprompter Oration” , . . .
.. .. when he hit that line , withe thine word “pews” , ...
it sounded like someone speaking of the color PUCE ( a sorta Purple-eee , red’ish-brown )
maybe the “Long-legged Mac-Daddy” had a pimpSuit in puce , ... yeeeee’OWWWWW’suh!
Also, where was he on Sept. 14, 2001 when President Bush had called for a national day of prayer. We know he wasn’t flying anywhere as air travel wasn’t allowed until the 19th I believe. Inquiring minds would like to know!
Sorta like saying’ ‘All hat and no cattle.’
Here's an obvious question. Sen. Obama is nearly universally praised as a great orator. Who would a black man listen to in order to become a great orator? Where in the black community are the great orators that a young black man can learn from? Its from the pastors of black churches, of course, which even includes Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Jesse Jackson, and Al Sharpton. Are we to believe that Sen Obama listened intently, studied and took to heart only the style of preaching enough to become a great orator, yet never listened to the substance of what was being said?
uh-ZACK’ly , .. kinda what they used call “Wooofin’ cookies”
(( I know of what I speak , “this ain’t yo Mama & yo Daddy , . THIS is serious Family shit! ))
“Not once in my conversations with [Wright] have I heard him talk about any ethnic group in derogatory terms.”
Glad someone got round to citing this because it recalled my initial fury on hearing it. Why has no one (tmk) picked up on the inanity of this statement? First, no one asked about his ‘conversations’ with Wright; folks want to know about the effect of Wright’s public pronouncements. Second, in those public pronouncements, which, by now, are public indeed, there are enough ‘derogatory terms” applied against whites (I’m guessing that’s an “ethnic group”) to make Don Imus look like St. Francis of Assisi.
You are exactly right here.
At what point would enough have been enough?
Sorry. Senator Obama does not take questions or hold press conferences
Unless CNN calls

and ya know what I’m talkin’ about!!!
Every one I've spoken to has said that if Obama's the dem nominee, they're not going to vote for him. 3 of them refuse to say why they're not going to vote for him... I'll leave it up to you to guess... Another says it's because of Wright. The other three aren't as well informed as the fourth. All are hard core dems.
As to the title of this thread... Well, let me put it this way. When a politician says "I didn't agree with the words of my 'spiritual leader,'" that brings up a very interesting question: If you didn't agree with those words, why were you a member of the congregation? Was it simply for political advantage from the very beginning? So your membership was a lie from the start? Or are you just lying now?
I stopped attending services at my synagogue and withdrew from the congregation when the Head Rabbi began supporting draconian gun control laws. I really liked the Rabbi, he was always friendly to me, and as far as I could tell, he's a very good man, in every way. But our political beliefs differ on what I consider to be a very important issue. So I'm no longer affiliated with the congregation, but when I happen to see the Rabbi, we're still on friendly terms, even though he knows why I left.
