It's obvious to me the cool-aid "Obama is the next Messiah" crowd is unable to logically refute the issue of his attendance and support for this radical nut-case preacher. Some now believes in the ridiculous notion that any criticism of Obama is akin to racism.

The fact is Obama puts himself out there as the great uniter. Well folks, "the Emperor has no clothes". He's been listening to a great divider and anti-American preacher for years. He volunteered to attend his sermons, listen to his hate speach and place him in a respected position on his Presidential campaign.

Those are simply the facts.

If we ever reach a point in America where we need to walk around on egg shells, and are unable to debate, argue, or discuss issues of this sort as they reflect on the character of a person running for President. Then we may as well join the Taliban and usher in an age of theocracy in America.

I for one won't play the guilt card. This is a man running for President. If he can't deal with an examination of his character, then he shouldn't be running for the highest office in the land. If elected he would hold the highest Top Secret clearance and possess tremendous power and authority.

If we can't vette him, because of some hyper sensitivity toward "what if's", we're setting ourselves up for a dangerous precedence.
