FTA:
Obama said, "I am outraged by the comments that were made and saddened by the spectacle that we saw yesterday."
Wright's incendiary comments have dogged Obama's presidential campaign.
It almost appears that Wright is trying to sabotage Obama's campaign, jealousy, hogging his 15 minutes of fame, whatever it is, i think Obama is done with Wright!

I dont think Hillery needs to do that.
Mainstream Media is doin plenty good job at it.
Its all anyone talkes about, 24/7.
Because, the ultimate goal, is to NOT talk bout issues ... that way, we ken keep doin the same thing, electing the same poeple over, and over, and over again ... each tiem ... expectin DIFFERNT RESULTS!!
HEY! Thats the very definition of CRAAAAAAZIE!

What Wright could have said. "I am proud of my friend and member of my parish, Obama, who is showing every American that if you study hard, and go to college, you too can be a senator or even run for president.
Obama gave of himself to our community, he shared his hard earned skills with the our black community.
We have 6,000 members in our church. We can lift up our children to greater heights, out of the attitude of, we are oppressed, to the attitude of, YES, WE CAN DO IT.
I ask each of you to let your children know that a black man could be president in 2008. Let us help our children to take advantage of the world as it is today, and not commiserate about the past.
Go forth and work to keep the children in school, and let them know that, Yes, they can do it."

He is certainly milking his 15 minutes of fame, and doing a lot of damage to Obama in the meantime.

Temptation got the rev! He's got a book coming out. And his damaged ego needed quenching.

One wonders what possible incentive this man has to so obviously attempt to sabotage Obama's Campaign...
There is definably some incentive that is for certain.

SLAM!...it's a bloodbath!
This should finally end the ability of any reasonable person to say truthfully that Obama agrees with any controversial statement made by Wright...but we know of course it won't...it will just reveal who is reasonable and who is a smear artist.

"This should finally end the ability of any reasonable person to say truthfully that Obama agrees with any controversial statement made by Wright..."
Does that also mean any reasonable person who said Wright is a nut no longer will be called "racist"?

I never called you a racist.I never defended Wright.
But anyone who holds a person responsible for what another person says even after that person says he disagrees with it...is a nut.And anyone who constantly repeats the lie that he does agree is a SMEAR artist.

The sands are ever shifting... if you say anything that can be construed as negative against Obama, you must be a racist. It's kind of annoying.
Anywho, I think Obama is okay, albeit a bit flakey. I just like Clinton better. And the Obama people tend to be a bit too culty for my liking, but I'll still be a good Democrat in the end should he be the nominee. He really is pretty flakey though.

I don't care what anyone says about Wright, but I have objected to you claiming Obama is a racist because this Wright fellow appears to be.

Twenty years of sitting in the pews and finally Obama figures it out?
Multiple choice question:
Do Senator Obama's comments today make you:
(a) Question his judgment about people's character
(b) Suspicious that he and Wright are giving us the ole okey-doke
(c) Conclude that Wright was correct - Obama IS just a politician
(d) Laugh your a$$ off
Hmmm...

seriously what it makes me think of obama is:
he has more patience and thoughtfulness than i thought possible
sonofmask,i have attended the same church my entire life and i couldnt even name every pastor we have had,not alone what they thought about dif political happenings
giving a pastor benefit of the doubt is not a sin
obamas judgement on iraq and the whole war mongering thing is what i care about but u keep smearing him while mccain/bush keep spending my grandchildrens money in iraq while our own infastructure and the dollar crumbles

There is no shock when people age less than gracefully and become far more outspoken and boisterous. Just look at Seinfeld. Do loud older people become remembered for the last 6-10 years of their rebellious and anti-social life, or do they deserve the dignity and respect to be understood and remembered for the first 70 years of their life??
You may write this off as a lifetime of bitterness and
hatred, but apparently that is not how most seniors have lived their prime years, and to many this is not how Rev. Wright lived the prime of his life.. Stop making him the candidate
and try to respect Obama's respect for his elders.

SOTM, I strongly suspect that you know Obama is no racist. Americans have an opportunity to put the the race issues of the past behind them to lar
