You know who I really feel sorry for now? Those African Americans that do NOT attend this kind of hate filled church, those that celebrate the improvements we have made as Americans, together. They will be harmed more than those that hate, and those that expect to be hated. They must be in as much shock as we are.Thats a great point MOgirl..

Over the last few weeks I've found myself starting to lump people into groups again and I had to remind myself a lot of great influences and teachers in my life were black.

See I never, rarely, ever thought of them that way. I just thought of them as Darrell or Viginia..etc.

We have to remember 'rev" Wright is atypical, he's a blight because he's a hater and for no other reason.

“I’m listening to Bob Beckel on FNC making excuses”

Bob Beckel can shut up. He and his fellow Democrats have done enough damage to this country. We don’t need more cynical propaganda from a political hack.

Solidad O'Brien has done NOTHING but make excuses for him. She is definitely in Wright's corner!

Roland Martin is dressed for the part!

Get out! I did not know that.

Had to turn back to FNC. They have a killer panel on now. Angela McGowan, Boob Beckel, Michael Steele and Jane something or other.

Talking about Obama being afraid to debate Hillary.

I understand people get emotional. I am making that comment for us to reflect on what WE post. And thanks, I forgot about the abuse button.

Sorry—just because someone has mutiple degrees does not mean he is intelligent.

Thank you!

CNN is such a balanced ‘news’ source. /s

Can you imagine Fox News having ‘commentators’ dressed in ‘right-wing’ costumes (whatever those are)?

Like Roland Martin, Soledad O’ Brien is a Rev Wright/ Obama Kiss A## and not a journalist. CNN should be embarassed about their Rev Wright infomercial. Despite Lib CNN’s efforts, this will backfire big time.

No he must not go unchallenged. I do not like his tone, the sarcasm, the screaming at me. However, on this site I am asking myself to not respond in a derogatory way. It is beneath Freepers.

CNN just staged a racial shouting match over the speech between three commentators. It is already polarizing the presidential campaign and American culture.

“Wright was trying to define himself.”

No, CNN is trying to define Wright. And O’Brien is a shill.

the comment about ‘You ain’t recovered enough yet” is stupid. It is not a rational, logical and intelligent response.

Wright does make fun of a lot of people and I don’t like that. However he is intelligent and he is learned. That does not mean he is fair, or nice. but he is defintely not dumb or ignorant.

I’ve read moat of the thread. I’m not seeing what set you off and I am doubting you’ll get any posts pulled. But, knock yourself out.

The CNN coverage that just ran (with the exception of the analyst from George Washington University) was delusional. How they could not see this speech hurts Obama is just amazing.

These people seriously do not see their own rasism.

Where I went to school everyone was taught to respect one another...everyone. No one got a pass at the expense of anyone else. NO ONE! No making fun of "whitie" and no making fun of minorities. That's how post racism works folks. Wright didn't get the memo.

I think CNN just got the message--switched to wild fires.
