Re: Obama's Incredible Denial Concerning His Pastor

Isnt this kind of silly nit picking exactly whats allowed the Bush administration to be victorious. Why can't people talk about the issues that effect Americans. The statements of Wright aren't causing the subprime mortgage crisis nor are they causing inflation, nor have they impacted our dependence on foreign oil. Do people forget that we're supposed to be voting in someone who has plans to address these issues and not a religious advisor? I really don't get it.
Because the views of any church are a "direct" reflection of how a person thinks & what they believe. Otherwise, as Oprah Winfrey did, they just won't attend that church.

Pastor Wright is not some big-loud mouthed uncle or simply just a skeleton that jumped out of the closet one day.

As stated many times by Barack Obama--Pastor Wright was the inspiration of his book--"The audicity of Hope". Therefore, Pastor Wright is someone Barack Obama admires & respects, no matter what he says today.

As far as I am concerned: Barack Obamas next book should be titled: "The audacity of my poor judgement."

I am just as upset as anyone, as I am a former supporter & donor to the Obama campaign. But, I am certainly not going to buy into this flimsy denial.
