Comments on: Clinton Says Wright Was Obama's Choice

[realpatriot1]

nanging,

I''m a typical white person and I don''t find anything offensive in what he said. These remarks are being taken out of context by poltical partisons who want to put their own spin on it.

Reacting with apprehension when a young black male who''s a stranger approaches is a typical reaction among whites and if you read the context of his remarks he was saying that doesn''t make someone a racist.

Listen to the man''s words in their full context, not the propagnda his political opponents are trying to sell you.

If you do that you''ll find that he''s the only candidate in either the white or black communities that''s talking honestly about race in a way that will lead to healing.

Malcolm X lived in the time of lynchings, burnings, beatings, disenfranchisement, and any other despicable thing that could be done to black folks. He never did any of that to white folks. To make Malcolm a racist in the middle of all that is to absolutely deny the attrocities committed against black folks. If black history happened to you, could you say that you''d feel any differently. Malcolm X has his role in the struggle just like Medgar Evers, Martin Luther King, and any of the other men who were killed because they wanted something better for their people. So leave him alone.

[arealist]

I saw Obama as the press approached him on his Easter vacation, which btw was a political move to distance himself from his racist churich. He looked like a little boy that just wanted to be left alone. If he cannot handle the heat, he should get out of the kitchen. I can''t stand the ''Banshee'' but at least she doesn''t run and hide when people are going after her. This guy is not strong enough to be our President. People will work him any way they want to, especially his racist preacher. We do have a lot of enemies out there and we need a strong leader!!!

Barbie13607,

You can''t be serious. That Minnesota story has as many lies as Minnesota has lakes.

[mrsglb48]

WHY IS IT THAT CLINTON CAN SAY ANYTHING SHE WANT TO ABOUT OBAMA AND IT''S CALLED FAIR GAME,BUT IF HE SAY''S SOMETHING ABOUT HER AND HER TOM CAT HUSBAND IT''S WRONG.OBAMA''S TEAM SHOULD BE SHOUTING FROM THE ROOF TOPS WARNING FOLKS ABOUT THE BLUE DRESS AND WHAT BILL CLINTON WILL BRING BACK TO THE WHITE HOUSE

[mrsglb48]

DON''T YOU PEOPLE KNOW OR DO YOU JUST NOT GO TO CHURCH? ANY CHURCH THAT SIZE HAS A CHILDRENS CHURCH SEPERATE FROM ADULT SERVICES.MY CHURCH ONLY HAS 50 ADULT MEMBERS AND WE HAVE CHILDRENS CHURCH BEING TAUGHT EACH SUNDAY BY A QUALIFIED MEMBER .SO I AM SURE OBAMAS DAUGHTERS HAVE NOT HEARD WRIGHTS SERMONS. NOT THAT IT WOULD HURT THEM OR ANY OTHER PERSON TO KNOW THEIR OWN HISTORY

[sgtrds]

The problem is not as much what Wright said as the way he said it. His language my have been a bit too strong, but in his comment that 9-11 was America''''''''s chickens coming home to roost, he was 100% correct.

no it was both

I disagree. While I certainly think that 9-11 was a horrible and criminal act, we can not continue to deny the reasons for that anger if we ever hope to stop it. 9-11 was a reaction to the US building bases in SA and interfering militarily in the region. Many of the people in the Middle-East who hate us have very good reasons for it. they don''t hate us "for our freedom" as that moron Bush says. They hate us because we keep scr*ewing them.

[nanging3]

Judas Richardson fits right in there with the rest of Obamas endorsers.
Lets see:
Farrahkan, head of the US Muslim nation, hate monger & racist.
The New Black Panther Party (it was on his web-site for 1 day & suddenly dissappeared.
and of course Uncle Jerimiah Wright. Good Company...

[nanging3]

I AM OFFENDED AT THE "TYPICAL WHITE PERSON" COMMENT AND TO THINK PEROT GOT IN TROUBLE FOR SAYING "YOU PEOPLE".

[nanging3]

Obama was equally candid about his youthful struggles: pot, booze and %u201Cmaybe a
little blow,%u201D he wrote, could %u201Cpush questions of who I was out of my mind,%u201D
flatten %u201Cout the landscape of my heart, blur the edges of my memory.%u201D Most
memorably, the book gave the reader a heartfelt sense of what it was like to
grow up in the 1960%u2019s and 70%u2019s, straddling America%u2019s color lines: the sense of
knowing two worlds and belonging to neither, the sense of having to forge an
identity of his own. Malcolm X%u2019s autobiography seemed to offer something different,%u201D Obama wrote.
%u201CHis repeated acts of self-creation spoke to me; the blunt poetry of his words,
his unadorned insistence on respect, promised a new and uncompromising order,
martial in its discipline, forged through sheer force of will.%u201D

While working as a community organizer for a group of churches in Chicago, Obama
was repeatedly asked to join Christian congregations, but begged off.
MALCOLM X !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Poll: Obama way ahead in N.C.
21-point lead the largest so far
(Raleigh) News & Observer

Hillary Clinton in N.C. on Thursday
Barack Obama is way up in the latest Democratic tracking poll.

A survey by Public Policy Polling showed the presidential candidate with 55 percent to rival Hillary Clinton''s 34 percent in North Carolina.

The results came after two high-profile speeches by Obama: One on Iraq in Fayetteville, and another in response to video of his minister, Rev. Jeremiah Wright, condemning America.

"This 21 point lead is the largest he has shown in any NC polling to date, and an indication that the Wright controversy isn''t causing him any long term harm at least in this state," wrote pollster Tom Jensen on his blog.

The automated poll of 673 likely Democratic primary voters was conducted on March 24. The margin of error is plus or minus 3.8 percent. The Democratic polling firm is based in Raleigh.

In the March 17 poll, Obama led 44 to 43.

Obama says that rather than advising him on strategy, Wright helps keep his
priorities straight and his moral compass calibrated.

%u201CWhat I value most about Pastor Wright is not his day-to-day political advice,%u201D
Obama said. %u201CHe%u2019s much more of a sounding board for me to make sure that I am
speaking as truthfully about what I believe as possible and that I%u2019m not losing
myself in some of the hype and hoopla and stress that%u2019s involved in national
politics.%u201D
Just who would be running our country ?

Obama belonged to a church for 20 years that preached hatred for America and racism. He supported the minister of the church financially. He allowed his children to be baptized at this church. You don''t do these things if you disagree with what is being preached about. If you disagree then you leave and you don''t return. Obama is obviously a racist and he must hate America. He is not fit to be president.

Minnesota Man Claims He Took Drugs & Had *** with Barack Obama in 1999

[obamasgranny]

Obama also spoke out against Imus:

"I understand MSNBC has suspended Mr. Imus," Obama told ABC News, "but I would also say that there''''''''s nobody on my staff who would still be working for me if they made a comment like that about anybody of any ethnic group. And I would hope that NBC ends up having that same attitude."

Only he LIED!!

"He would not have been my pastor. You don''t choose your family, but you choose what church you want to attend." SAYS WHO? WHEN DID PEOPLE STOP CHOOSING THEIR FAMILY? Last I checked, Hillary is not from some third world country where your spouse is chosen for you without your approval...LET''S GET REAL! Is this here lame excuse for being Bill''s doormat thru 2 decades of lies, corruptness & *** scandals...instead of "dumping and denouncing", she chose to be a co-conspirator, co-concealor and manipulator of calculated lies! Wow-that shows GREAT JUDGEMENT and integrity, and such a role model for women...WHAT A FAIRYTALE!
