I see Lynda taking a slight bashing on this, so I'm standing up next to
her this one time. ;)

I concur.  The man is so smooth, he's scary.

I thought his initial choice of words on the matter was interesting.  He
said "I must confess that I have never heard...from Wright".  My
thinking was along the lines of 'if you never heard anything untoward,
then why do you feel so guilty that you need to confess?
It's like he wants it both ways...he says he is a close spiritual
adviser, yet he had no idea of Wright's sermons even though he has been
a faithful member of that church for 20+ years???? C'mon...those kind of
excuses don't cut the mustard with anyone else, why does Obama get
special treatment?

I heard that, too, but forgot where...do you have a source for this?

I think Barak has a lot of people in this country hypnotized to the
point that they have lost their senses and I, for one, simply don't get
it...how can people see through Bush, through Hillary, through McCain,
through Edwards, Nader, Biden, et. al, but not Obama????  I find it
simply STRANGE.  But then again, this is THE populace that almost
elected the inventor of the internet and a Nobel Prize winner to the
office of President.  To me, it's all truly laughable.  Thank God for
hanging chads...lol...

Bev, off to don my Nomex.
