Some black leaders are questioning Mr. Obama’s decision to distance his campaign from Mr. Wright because of the campaign’s apparent fear of criticism over Mr. Wright’s teachings, which some say are overly Afrocentric to the point of excluding whites.

"Some" = all those silly typical non-black people.

[george76]

in 1984 I went to Tripoli” to visit Col. Muammar el-Qaddafi, Mr. Wright recalled, “with Farrakhan

[Lancey Howard]

It is about time Wright manned up and hollered to the heavens about how Obama stabbed him in the back.

[the invisib1e hand]

too perfect. if they can get wright pissed at obama, it makes obama look good.

this is too perfect for obama. is someone playing with the archives again?

“... which some say are overly Afrocentric to the point of excluding whites.”

This sounds so much like Gnat Liar. Leave it to the Slimes.

“You can get kind of rough in the sermons, so what we’ve decided is that it’s best for you not to be out there in public.”

Hmmmm, no wonder Obama could not deny he was familar with the remarks. Funny that the MSM did not find this a long time ago.

[JCG]

Mr. Wright said that in the phone conversation in which Mr. Obama disinvited him from a role in the announcement, Mr. Obama cited an article in Rolling Stone, “The Radical Roots of Barack Obama.”

Wonder if any of those "Radical Roots" go back to madrassas?  How did he learn "first-rate" accented Arabic anyway?

 

Obama: Man of the World
By NICHOLAS D. KRISTOF
Published: March 6, 2007

Mr. Obama recalled the opening lines of the Arabic call to
prayer, reciting them with a first-rate accent. In a remark that
seemed delightfully uncalculated [...], Mr. Obama described the
call to prayer as "one of the prettiest sounds on Earth at
sunset."

I am surprised ROLLING STONE is even critiquing Obama...it has done everything for B Hussein except his his buttocks. I guess Matt Taibbi did not write that essay....

Mr. Wright's church, the 8,000-member Trinity United Church of Christ, is considered mainstream

...by people who don't much care for all that Biblical junk.

I realize this is a year old, but could somebody PLEASE explain what in the world the good Reverend means when he says “Fifteen minutes BEFORE SHABBOS I get a call from Barack,” Mr. Wright said in an interview on Monday, recalling that he was at an interfaith conference at the time.

Are we told he was at an interfaith conference and that’s why he was talking about “Shabbos”(the Jewish sabbath)? Or am I being paranoid?

[george76]

I do not know what he meant.

[Candor7]

Too Late.

The whacky Reverend Wright has ruined Obummer's ( Ted Kennedy's pronunciation)chances to be president. We know ideologically where Obama stands. Obama if elected president would divide our nation, and weaken it.

Obama has no intention of unifying America, or of strengthening America.

Nice work.

Mr. Wright’s church, the 8,000-member Trinity United Church of Christ, is considered mainstream — Oprah Winfrey has attended services...

I read that Oprah stopped attending for the same reasons Obama should have stopped.

[george76]

Oprah Winfrey apparently stopped because she was getting too many requests from the members for hand out of money, loans for schemes, requests to be on her show...

Obama needed these people’s votes as he lost an earlier political state senate race.

[george76]

Thanks.

I thought Obama said he didn't know about those things until they were recently reported in the press...don't tell me he wasn't telling the truth...
