Because you don't remember (because it didn't happen) any other candidate 
tying himself, his political philosophy, to a minister.  This is different, 
comparing any other candidate and his or her minister to the position Obama 
has 
placed Wright in his life falls short.

What would Wright have had to say in order for it to be racist?  Specifying 
that it was the White American goverment that had developed the aids virus in 
order to wipe out Blacks and it was the White dominated government that 
purposely gave drugs to Blacks so they could put them in jail .... just how 
far does 
someone have to go to be a racist and a hatemonger?

As many have foretold, ANY criticsm of Obama will pass muster for 'racism'.  
Don't like Obama for any reason whatever, ah, then you are just covering 
racism.

Again, what fault could we find with Obama and it NOT be racism?

Most conversations I've heard (read) go like this:

"Well, the problem I have with Obama is ...."
"That's racist!  You are just covering your racism."
"I haven't yet said what the problem is."
"Doesn't matter, whatever it is, it's racism."

Most people's (non Obamists) conclustion about Obama is that he's just this 
guy.  Nothing special, nothing to write home about, no reason to expect any 
sort of real change.  It's not a matter of him being a great statesman and 
hope 
for our future if it only weren't for that unfortunate Rev, Wright (Ayers, 
Hady, etc. more to come).  We, the non-Obamists, just deal with those 
objectively 
and call a ... eh ... a ... club a club.  There's no hacking at the feet of 
clay here becuase there is no head of gold, the whole thing is clay.

Yet, stiffling a yawn at the mediocraty of Obama is met (check some comments 
on this list) with "I don't see why you are so vehemently agaisnt him."   To 
the Obamist, not going glassy-eyed and mumbling incoherently about 'changing 
the changes that we are changing to change' is the same thing as vehement 
opposition.  

It isn't.  I don't see anything worse happening if Obama gets elected than 
anyone else who is (seriously) running.  

Again, take note of appearance and telltale signs of Obamism.  
1)  It isn't possible for Wright to be a racist, no matter what he says. 
2)  It is not possible for any critcism of Obama to NOT be racist.
3)  Anything less than glassy-eye enthusiasm is seen as vehement opposition.
