Wright Back

Wright is back because the add of Repubs in NC is starting to run on Monday.

On Friday, in the NPR (among others) interview, Mrs. Daves said that even McCain couldn't stop it.

Leanza - Obama has specifically stated Wright is NOT his mentor. If you took the time to read Obama's books, you'd realize that he isn't just making that statement now.

As for the Moyer interview, at leat there's still one real journalist still living in the United States. There don't seem to be any in the mainstream media.

What the media did to and with Rev. Wright is far more troubling that anything Rev. Wright said or did.

Timothy McVeigh was in the Army and from what I read, a very good soldier.

At sometime in his life he began to hate this country. Being a marine doesn't guarantee that Wright still loves this country.

How could he preach such horrible things about America and spread that idea to young people in a church, and still profess to be patriotic?

He and Obama got caught and now they both want us to forget what we saw and heard. The Rev.Wright issue will follow Obama throughout his career.

Every 10 minutes there is footage on CNN of Rev. Wright. the media barage us with inflamatory clips all designed to insight a reaction.

Obama. Obama is not radical. He is not inflammatory. He is decent and our best shot.

Time to get this nomination done so we can get to the general election.

Hillary Clinton now comes on and I wince. I have to mute to audio now just like the hideous grating HEAD ON commercials.

I have read what Rev. Wright has said, and shockingly, much of what he says makes sence. Especially coming from a black minister in a black congregation in Chicago. People don't like to admit it but we have done very little to assimilate in this country. This is a blunt exposure of an issue we all must face. We live in a country that had slavery as a way of life for over 245 years. We need to address the issues. I think this campaign is taking us a long way on a badly needed journey. Barack Obama has denounced the negative words against the US, that's good enough for me. Get over it.

After watching long clips from his two controversial sermons on the Moyers show, I have to say Rev. Wright appears to be right on target. Broadcast of the over-the-top sound bites is deceiving, and is only intended to stir up hate.

I have not witnessed every sermon Wright has given, and perhaps there are objectionable passages, but based on what I've seen, he appears to be an insightful and brave man.

Obama, did not say these things. Rev. Wright said them. How often did Obama actually sit in the pews in church? Possibly not that often. The church is the key church if you are doing community work in Chicago. It is world reknown. People are taking the bait. If you are democrats, don't be distracted by these side issues. The election is more important than that. It's all Clinton has and that is why you are hearing it so much. Hillary on the other hand DID say some things, Bosnia, NAFTA, how about recklessly threatening to bomb Iran and "obliterate" them. Hillary is playing politics in the worst way now and if you buy it then you lose. It's time to come together and nominate Obama.

Wish Moyers had asked Wright why he lives in a multi-million dollar home in a white neighborhood.
But that was just a little snippet ranting about rich white folks. He didn't really mean it.
Sorry, but many Americans aren't going to forget the image of Wright mocking America, cursing America--with the congregation laughing and patting him on the back. It may be a snippet but it is powerful.
And then Obama insults our good sense by saying he didn't know about the sermons,DVD's, newsletters.
A win for Obama is a win for Rev.Wright.

Did I hear that Rev wright was a Marine?
Laid down his life for this country? Wore the uniform ?
If so,me thinks most of the nincompoops who have been posting should take a deep breath , look in to themselves and THINK for one second.I also challenge any of them to declare their service status: presently or in the past ..before they start blabbering....

Better Obama than a baloney and bull sales woman and former young Republican , corporate lawyer and Walmart board member .

Obama should debate Hillary and explain why a terrorist is on his website as a supporter and friend of Michelle Obama - as reported by FrontPage:
Terrorist Fundraisers for Obama
By Patrick Poole
FrontPageMagazine.com | Wednesday, April 23, 2008

Two years ago, Hatem El-Hady was the chairman of the Toledo, Ohio-based Islamic charity, Kindhearts, which was closed by the US government in February 2006 for terrorist fundraising and all its assets frozen. Today, El-Hady has redirected his fundraising efforts for his newest cause - Barack Obama for President.

El-Hady has his own dedicated page on Barack Obama's official website, chronicling his fundraising on behalf of the Democratic Party presidential candidate (his Obama profile established on February 19, 2008 - two years to the day after Kindhearts was raided by the feds). Not only that, but he has none other than Barack Obama's wife, Michelle Obama, listed as one of his friends (one of her 224 listed friends).

But his leadership of Kindhearts is not the only thing that has brought him scrutiny by federal law enforcement officials. Last summer, El-Hady was questioned by the FBI concerning his knowledge of possible conspirators in a UK-based terror plot.

Did you see the unrelated piece

“They don’t trust you because they think you are unreliable and might break, since you don’t have God to rely on,” Specialist Hall said of those who proselytize in the military. “The message is, ‘It’s a Christian nation, and you need to recognize that.’ ” And heaven help those who actually criticize the country's direction.

Bill Moyer's Journal with Jeremiah Wright, first seen last Friday, will be rebroadcast tonight, Sunday April 27 at 7:00 PM EST. So the ones who saw it are thinking McCain is out of touch...or didn't watch. Or doesn't care. And they'll be joined by those who missed the first broadcast, and will also get to see the truly insane and inane media, Clintons and Republicans need to keep Wright a juggernaught for sales, ratings and racists. This interview lets people see how the media is manipulating this entire election cycle. It needs Wright like a junkie needs a fix. And if Wright is no longer the angry black boogeyman, the media has nothing to survive on except the next rip and read.

Unfortunately lots of my democrats friends will vote for McCain if Obama is the nominee. The current democratic party is being hi-jacked by left-wing activists, who choose to impose their activists' views upon ordinary democrats.

The fact of the matter is that we as Americans are not ready yet for a debate about the repercussions about our government's foreign policies. We are blinded by our desire to be patriotic, which has become a double edged sword. Patriotism brings us all together to accomplish anything we set our minds to; reaching for the moon and stars (JFK), uncovering the human genome, engineering and technology achievements, etc. But Patriotism is also preventing us for asking some cold hard questions. Rev Wright may or may not be correct in what he is suggesting, but he is posing some important questions, and I notice that he is not the only one. Are we ready to look at these difficult questions? 9/11, racism, government transparency, or refocusing of foreign policy? I think not, because each of these quickly leads to emotional and not rational responses, all because of misuse of our heartfelt desire to show our love for America. Unfortunately, in the game of politics, some groups are using this emotional rawness to their own strategic ends. When will we be ready for a real debate and a real change?

Jackson said: Why won't Obama agree to a debate without a moderator? They have only debated 4 times, not 21 as stated by Obama. They have been in collective debates with other candidates, but not just these two! Obama needs to get his stories straight...

He's winning so he doesn't need to.

I think I get it!

Rev. Wright is going so far outside the realm of decency to his former parishioner that everyone is going to say that he is either certifiable or a part of the Clinton campaign. And therefore Senator Obama will not have to disavow his mentor, only point out that he could not have listened to someone who is clearly nuts!

But Rev. Sharpton says he is legit so who am I to argue?

It's clear the leftists have hi-jacked the Democratic Party. If they put Obama up in November -us centrist soon to be ex-Democrats will dance in the streets when Obama's political career goes down in flames. LANDSLIDE baby.

Obama's other mentor, Joe Lieberman, is a pro-Israel hawk who wants to bomb Iran. Notice how his relationship to Lieberman is getting zero media attention. Why is that? Is it because it doesn't stir up the outrage of "socially conservative" whites?

Does she have anything else to say besides Debate? didn't think so, otherwise she would say it.

Debate is fine, but she is looking for gotcha. That does not help American people.

She is lost primary. If she thinks she's that good then she should feel free to run as an independent.

Al-Qaeda has a goal of imposing Sharia law upon all people. Even countries with a majority non-muslim population. An extremely strict, conservative form of Sharia familiar from the Taliban in Afghanistan.
The U.S. has a goal of imposing representative democracy, with rule of law and minority rights.
To equate them morally is in itself a moral choice.
To consider a man who espouses this equality a "spiritual mentor" for 20 years is a big warning sign of the character of Obama.
