Someone say "mayors"?

May all this doesn’t matter: American seems hell-bent to go socialist with Oprah’s Obama just to “show” the GWB people.
People who do not do what is necessary to become independent will always be dependent, and therefore, disguised and pretended otherwise though it may be, controlled by others.
Are our brave young men and women going to fall for that old fashion dog and pony show!??
Someone say "mayors"?
Friends and advisers, such as the Rev. Michael Pfleger, pastor of St. Sabina Roman Catholic Church in the Auburn- Gresham community on the South Side, who has known Obama for the better part of 20 years, help him keep that compass set, he says.
“I always have felt in him this consciousness that, at the end of the day, with all of us, you’ve got to face God,” Pfleger says of Obama. “Faith is key to his life, no question about it. It is central to who he is, and not just in his work in the political field, but as a man, as a black man, as a husband, as a father.... I don’t think he could easily divorce his faith from who he is.”
Another person Obama says he seeks out for spiritual counsel is state Sen. James Meeks, who is also the pastor of Chicago’s Salem Baptist Church. The day after Obama won the primary in March, he stopped by Salem for Wednesday-night Bible study.
“I know that he’s a person of prayer,” Meeks says. “The night after the election, he was the hottest thing going from Galesburg to Rockford. He did all the TV shows, and all the morning news, but his last stop at night was for church. He came by to say thank you, and he came by for prayer.”
Over the weekend I spoke to people that get their information from the MSM and they have not heard of the Rev. Wright problem Obama is having. Nor have they heard any of his more radical viewpoints.
Anyone who hasn't heard of the problem is looking the other way.

He can no more disown him than his other racist pastor the ‘crazy uncle’, his racist grandma, or his racist wife. Zigheil!
But when any White person says it or anything like it, the hypocritical outrage is deafening.
"Is it fair"?
The question is flawed, and shows an inability to deal directly with the problem.
This State Senator / "Pastor" James Meeks should be asked why he should not be charged with inciting to riot.

I missed the part where the pastor talks about Jesus
Don't think so. I was with a bunch of Dems over the weekend and they are down on both Mrs. Clinton and Barack Obama.
“I missed the part where the pastor talks about Jesus”
The pastor is interested in immigration.
As long as the country gives these people license to engage in this kind of asshole rhetoric, it will continue. The best thing we can do is make sure Obama doesn’t get elected.
I was playing poker with some 60+ aged guys this weekend and they were worried/commenting on the coming race riots.
no! Really I was talking to my parents and others in their age group >65, and they typically watch local network news. They did not have a clue about Rev. Wright.
