I bet the whole thing is planned now, to show a serious split between the readical black theology and Obama.
See, they don’t get along now do they?
It’s ok, vote for Obama.
I think they will find a way to shake him off before then.
There’s at least one thing that argues against it being a plan by Obama and Wright.
Wright is clearly, clearly self obsessed. He is an egomaniac who cannot brook any criticism or serious questioning. He is filled with anger, also clearly, and he doesn’t abide what Obama has already done and said to try distancing himself.
I don’t see this as possibly an act, much less probably.
This looks like the real thing. It goes to the nature of who Wright is. This is someone who cannot help himself but to act and speak as he has been. It pours out of every pore in this man’s body.
I agree with your assessment.
Why do you think Obama thought he could hide the truth about Wright from us? And does he share Weight’s views.
I think, in part, he does.
Wright has done, all by himself, lost a large majority of the black vote for the Democrat party. The party heads know their “Messiah” is fatally flawed and will nominate Hillary as they grasp for straws. Nominating Obamamama now could mean a 49 state blowout by McCain. They are in a “Catch 22” position. They brought it upon themselves.
After twenty years in the pews and six weeks of intense national scrutiny, I guess ol’ Obama finally realizes what we ‘GOT’ from a few ‘out of context’ sound bytes.
I think he shares them in part, also.
Probably not as extremely or as viscerally as Wright.
I think he got them in part from his Ivy League education, and he got them in part from being in Wright’s church, and he got them in part from Michelle.
But I don’t think he feels them in his bones or is filled with raging hatred.
He is misguided. But so are all Liberals...
“See, they don’t get along now do they? It’s ok, vote for Obama.”
Sounds logical, doesn’t it? What’s NOT logical is the blind, “I don’t care”, dogmatic loyalty of the Obamazombies and MSM who are totally unshaken, unchanged and even re-fueled by all this.
....On the other hand, it’s looking like there’s a significant group of voters who rather liked him and were willing to overlook the first uh-oh or two, but with growing, gnawing doubts, the last 2 days have been a permanent deal-breaker.
Despite all this, we’re still in suspense as to who the final nominee will be.
The damage was incredible. Nominee or not, Obama’s toast. Like her or not, Clinton said it best; you can't choose your family, but you can choose your church.
Twenty years of not rectifying a bad choice is very, very difficult to explain.
Why did he think he could hide the truth about Wright from us?
Obama has been caught in a catch 22.
He is painfully learning that “when you lie down with dogs, you get up with fleas”.
He associated with Wright and the church in order to get somewhere in the black commmunity of Chicago. Then he began to sense the size of his greater potential, and he went for the Illinois Senate. Then the U.S. Senate.
Further sensing that “the sky’s the limit” politically for someone with his talents, he ran for President.
Meanwhile, what to do about Wright and the church. He had used it to get started. It was his foundation. So by then he was tied to it. But there had to be a little voice somewhere in the back of his head warning him to watch out for what this could do to him on the national scene.
But for a year he got a pass.
Then Sean Hannity read an article by a black journalist that had researched the Obama-Wright thing.
He looked into it himself and was appalled. He got Wright for an interview, then followed up by trying to get this in front of the national media and the American people.
He succeeded.
Now, Obama really has no good place to go with this thing.
“And does he share Weight’s views. I think, in part, he does.”
In part? Of course, he shares them. He’s just trying to do major damage control right now, hoping he hasn’t been totally “outed”.
When you choose to listen to (bringing your children) and follow the same pastor for 20 years, call him a “member of the family”, choose him to marry you and baptize your children, ask him to privately pray with you on the eve of running for the highest office in the land, socialize with him and put him on your advisory board (only months ago), you’re sympatico with his philosophies which have been repeatedly vocalized, obviously.
As I’ve said before, many have left their churches and synogogues over less when they don’t agree.
Please, no Fried Chickens Come Home to Roost jokes.
“Wright has done, all by himself, lost a large majority of the black vote for the Democrat party”.
What I’ve seen today, and big-time on black talk radio, is that there’s a tremendous backlash of defiant, angry black voters who are defending BHO more fiercely than ever. I think they’re shaken, confused, and somewhat disillusioned -but they have far too many hopes and dreams invested in the Golden Child to jump ship.
All in all, it’s not a pretty picture, but ah, the suspense. The Super Delegates are in a REAL quandary, what to do, what to do - their mission and raison d’etre is to choose the most electable, undefeatable nominee (which most would agree today, is HRC). But, alas, doing that will trigger an unprecedented party split, revolt and near (?) riots - do they dare???
It’s finally OUR time to watch it unfold with the kinder, gentler, more loving party. Regardless of the outcome, we CAN win this. It’s all up to JSM now.
Looks like it’s time for the Bosnian Bull Shooter to come to the rescue. Lucky for us, if Hillary gets to save the day. Obama’s ship is taking on water and the pumps can’t work fast enough. Rush’s “Operation Chaos” may have just kept enough life In Hillary’s campaign which will allow that wretched vile creature called Hillary Rodham Clinton to get the Dimmhi’s nomination but maybe even the Oval Office. Sweet to the taste and bitter in the belly of the Hildabeast. Me thinks Obama hath been given Hemlock by the Good Reverend Jeremiah Wright. IMHO, I think that Obama got taken down before his time. Ironic, that Hillary was able to use the conservatives to deliver a knockout punch to her opponent. Chaos is coming alright. Sorry, Rushbo, but operation chaos was a bad idea. With Hillary still in the race, she will take the nomination as Obama falls from the sky and his campaign becomes a flaming wreck. The Clinton’s may be hicks, but they are not STUPID. Do not under estimate this one. The dark side of the force is strong with this one.
“There’s at least one thing that argues against it being a plan by Obama and Wright.”
There are several. What we have here are two colossal egos, and a classic pathology to go with it.
After a twenty year-old, intimate association on many levels (despite what BHO now claims), Wright suddenly saw his grandiose, history-making dreams of officiating at the inaugural swearing-in, becoming the African-American Billy Graham, resident prez guru and frequent Lincoln Bedroom guest, all disappear in a puff of smoke, when BHO began his public distancing, dismissing, and denial of him.
So he went on a speaking junket. Just days before the Indiana primary. (Coincidence? I don’t think so). If you saw him speak, the verbal pay-backs to BHO were explicit and undeniable. This man is as brilliant and eloquent as BHO, but more experienced, wiser and even more devious.
So today, BHO, equally pissed, but also with a critical agenda to fulfill, did what he had to do, he threw JW under the bus in return. Who did he fool? No thinking person.
Obama's demise is coming too soon. I wish we could somehow stave it off until Hillary has been defeated soundly.
It looks like the unintended consequence of Operation Chaos will be that Hillary gets the Dem nomination and beats McCain in November.
Obama is damaged goods. The more people find out about him, the less they support him. I think they will start deserting him even before the Dem convention in August.
Hillary is the one we need to watch out for. The Dem faithful and MSM will rally around her as soon as Obama has left (or been forced off) the scene.
McCain does not have the guts to fight Hillary. If Obama were the nominee, his (Obama's) own negatives would do him in, and McCain would need to lift a finger.
Obama has peaked too soon. It's all downhill for him now. Say hello to President Hillary.
“Looks like it’s time for the Bosnian Bull Shooter to come to the rescue.”
You bring tears to my eyes, SO funny! Great piece of writing.
Why do some people insist that Obama is
highly intelligent? Is David Axlerod so naive to believe the truth about his client would never surface? He must be getting a hefty pay out. A fraud well run until now.
Obama is a sham. High risk candidate. Empty suit.
McCain wouldn't need to lift a finger, if Obama were the Dem nominee.
