Obama Questioned Again About Wright, Gets Some Help From The Boss

(CBS)
From CBS News’ Maria Gavrilovic:
PHILADELPHIA -- Barack Obama attended a Jewish community gathering this morning at a Philadelphia area synagogue, where he defended his relationship with his Rev. Jeremiah Wright. Obama said he spoke to Wright about controversial remarks privately, instead of denouncing him publicly. “I'll be honest with you, I did not become aware of them until I started running for president. And at that point, yes, I had conversations with him, which I shared with him my deep concerns,” Obama said. “The caricature that's been presented of him is not an accurate depiction of who he is as a pastor.”
Obama said he believes the controversy will not hurt him in a general election, but believes that “scurrilous e-mails” about his race and name may have caused some discomfort with Jewish voters. “A lot of it has been generated as a consequence of the fact that I’m African-American and that at times there’ve been tensions between the African-American leadership and the Jewish community,” Obama said. “So I just want to emphasize what’s in my heart, which is that my ties to the Jewish community are not political. They precede me entering politics.”
While Obama continues to address the Rev. Wright controversy, he is getting some help in trying to quiet the criticism that he is an elitist. Bruce Springsteen, who sings often about his working class roots, endorsed Obama today, posting a message on his website that says the “bitter” controversy is being exaggerated. “While these matters are worthy of some discussion, they have been ripped out of the context and fabric of the man's life and vision,” it reads.
The American Hunters and Shooters Association also endorsed Obama, saying they “wanted to set the record straight.” Obama told a group of fundraisers that some small town Americans “cling to guns…as a way to explain their frustrations” a week and a half ago. The association believes, however, that Hillary Clinton has “turned her back on American’s gun owners.”

WE are awake that is why we don''t believe every OPINION piece that we read and we aren''t impressed by somebody who has no original thoughts but cuts and pastes the same smears on all the blogs.
The people who aren''t awake are the ones who believe everything they read or hear.
Please spare us from your right wing radio hosts smears. Many fell for that in the past, but not this time! If you can''t produce a candidate that is worthy of Obama than you are doomed. There are millions and millions of us who are paying attention. We won''t allow him to be brought down by you and the likes of you. Save your breath and your cut and paste talents. The Obama express is on the way to the white house. Tooot Toot, better hop on or get out of the way.
GET OVER IT. US IN THE YOUNGER GENERATIONS WILL NOT LET OUR OLDER GENERATIONS AND THE YOUTH CORRUPTED BY THEM DEPRIVE AMERICANS OF THE NEXT GREAT AMERICAN PRESIDENT.
OBAMA 08
NOBAMA 08
You do give a good speech and you are quite the politician!! Not to mention your high opinion of yourself,.....I see that "E" word coming again!!
NOBAMA 08
Better vote for someone WE do Know and thats Hillary.

Well, I am white, have a high-school education, am a woman, and I am supporting Obama.
To the youth of America:
Support Hillary. Next time Obama.
Let the Clintons clean up the mess in the White House and have Obama become more experienced.
The Clintons know what they''re talking about.
For all African Americans to turn on this man and Senator Clinton is unbelievable.
African Americans voting for the sake of having an Afircan American as president is so racist, it''s scarey.

- Too bad the Boss didn''t actually check out his voting record to see if his votes actually support those in the working class.

See all 29 CommentsObama has a way of ducking hard votes or explaining away his bad votes by trying to blame poorly-written statutes. Case in point: an amendment he voted on as part of a recent bankruptcy bill before the US Senate would have capped credit card interest rates at 30 percent. Inexplicably, Obama voted against it, although it would have been the beginning of setting these predatory lending rates under federal control. Even Senator Hillary Clinton supported it.
Now Obama explains his vote by saying the amendment was poorly written or set the ceiling too high. His explanation isn''t credible as Obama offered no lower number as an alternative, and didn''t put forward his own amendment clarifying whatever language he found objectionable.
Why wouldn''t Obama have voted to create the first federal ceiling on predatory credit card interest rates, particularly as he calls himself a champion of the poor and middle classes? Perhaps he was signaling to the corporate establishment that they need not fear him. For all of his dynamic rhetoric about lifting up the masses, it seems Obama has little intention of doing anything concrete to reverse the cycle of poverty many struggle to overcome.
