At the same time, however, I think your hysterical desire to draw lines between liberals and non-liberals clouds your ability to use reason and logic, rather than emotion and personal opinion.

To the average American. Obama's denial of Pastor Wrights comments, are like someone being a 20 year member of a street gang, then stating they had no idea or were not associated with any of the violence committed by the gang.
The point is Obama did know Pastor Wright. He knew his radical views, & disinvited him to his announcement. Yet, he kept him on his campaign committee, until the video came out.
Now with Father Fledger, he was "forced" to resign from this church. Which in turn brings up Obama's judgement. If his political ambitions were high, why didn't he leave this church in the dust long ago? Any other rational person would have, knowing full well in advance, that associations with radicals, would indeed hurt their political dreams.
