I have to lean toward Lynda and Bev on this one too. Obama is still
a politician and has the slick rhetoric to prove it. There is no way
a 20 year member of Rev Wright's church, particularly one who
identifies the Rev as his mentor could not  know anything at all  about
these ranting's. This is the church he has chosen to raise his  children
in and a caring father doesn't put his children in the influence of a 
pastor he doesn't agree with.

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.
