Someone needs to wrap Wright's head in duct tape to keep him from opening his racist, anti-American piehole. Any pastor who would repeatedly say "God damn America" is no pastor but is nothing but a traitor to his calling.

When it comes to hating America, racism and bigotry - they are legitimate subjects. Obama opened the door by refusing to disown and repudiate his former pastor.

So when does Obama start bashing McCain for his Rev. Hagee indorsement?

He may be senile but he is changing his mind because he has caught he** from many of his constituents. On the other hand he has to weasel out of part of it by saying this:

Mr. McCain said that he did not believe that Mr. Obama, Democrat of Illinois, shared those views and that he was still against the advertisement in North Carolina. But he suggested that Mr. Obama had made the subject fair play by declaring in an interview shown over the weekend on “Fox News Sunday” that questions about Mr. Wright were “a legitimate political issue.”

Can't tell the truth about Obama and his relationship with the idiot Wright.

I cannot understand how McCain could be so conflicted over a black and white issue like Wright, his comments, and Obama’s continued support. Why mince words?

Talk about a man with absolutely no moral clarity. It has taken him this long to figure out that the Obama/Wright issue is significant, and he still can’t bring helf to address Obama for his extremely flawed judgement with regard to Wright.

McCain, Obama is exposed here for being a very flawed person. You need to wake up and smell the stench eminating from Wright/Obama, and say, “Hey, you know, that stinks. There’s no excuse for it, and anyone so flawed is not Presidential material.”

That McCain hasn’t done this by now... well, just Geez. What’s left to be said.

It’s indicative of HUSSEIN NObomba’s lack of judgment and leadership that this loose cannon loser is allowed to keep showing what an ass he is.

“Any pastor who would repeatedly say “God damn America”...”

AND in church! I don’t know about you guys, but my church is the house of God and I’m in trouble if I even cross my legs.

Jeremiah Wright proclaims himself to be a patriotic American who served. I’ll remind him that Timothy McVeigh and Lee H. Oswald ALSO served this country before betraying it.

Not even close to the same thing, but there’s no way the Obama camp will just sit silently.

But...but...”Goddamn America” is just the way they talk in black churches! (Doesn’t that sound a tad bit racist?)
