Re: Obama Addresses Racial "Anger"

Do any of you believe we as a nation have completely treated the black people fairly and behaved toward them in a Christian manner?

What about our genocide against thousands of Native Americans. We overlook these things because our people did them. If he was an Indian he'd have the right to condemn America over this grave sin in our past also.

He needs to point all the whiners to Condi Rice, Oprah, Barbara Jordan, etc. who accomplished things in life.

Everything Bill Cosby says is true!!!!!

My only concern is that this whole church/state thing can bite us in other areas.

It's bad to censor the church and bad for the church to say stupid things. So much involved in this issue.

It's hard to respect people that have their pants hanging to their knees so I can see what color and brand of boxers they wear, and can't understand what they are saying since they refuse to use proper English. How stupid is that?

Re: Obama Addresses Racial "Anger"

Seems to me like Obama put a huge nail in his own coffin today when he addressed his pastor's words.

The stuff had gone around the internet for the last couple of months telling you how to check out the website for Obama's home church and what they believe and what they stand for. But alot of people were still sitting back watching with a touch of skepticism because there wasn't yet proof that Obama had aligned himself with that church. Today he made it clear.

And frankly, having listened to what he had to say, I was left feeling like he was actually agreeing with the pastor's rhetoric, but was saying it in such a way that he was trying to make it sound acceptable.

I'm not a Hilary fan. But I'm even less an Obama fan.

Re: Obama Addresses Racial "Anger"

If Obama ends up losing to McCain in November, I think many of us will look back at this Jeremiah Wright thing as being the turning point that caused him to lose.

I think NOT! To "condemn" America? What gives with that!

It's appalling for a presidential candidate to be anti-American.

Have only read your initial post here and not the thead but I am betting I am not the first one to point out that Obama still has not explained his lack of judgement in attending this church and sitting under this pastor for 20 years.

No wonder his wife slipped not long ago and stated the first time she was proud of America in her adult life was now with Obama's success. I am sure sitting under that hate mongering racist pastor her head has been filled with more anti-American and anti white propaganda than can be imagined.

Bottom line is this is a case of judgement. If he didn't have the guts to change churches or to confront his Pastor's views that he now condemns how can we expect him to stand up as a leader of the Free World?

Bingo!!
He made a sweeping speech about race in America, to deflect attention away from the key issue at hand... which is his judgment in choosing to sit under this man's pastorate, a man who spews such disgusting anti-American hatred.

Some people are already distracted by the flowery rhetorics of Obama's speech. But there are a lot of smart voters out there who havent taken their eye off the ball here.

I think this is going to cost Obama dearly. The damage has been done, and he may never recover from this. Somewhere, John McCain's people are smiling.
