..they should be urging obama to speak on this more forthrightly than he has.

Why do you think he hasn't. We form ourselves based on our experiences. When I was growing up in a Jesuit school, we had a priest who would regularly meet with prostitutes and pimps. Does that mean that he acquiesced to their lifestyle or was he trying to turn them around. And he did turn around one or two pimps. He brought then to our school to talk about their personal experiences and journey with Fr. Fritz.

Hence having read Obama's books, having heard him say that he is going to bring all types of people together, I have no doubt in my mind that Obama did not have the capability to selectively choose on how he was going to maintain his relationship with his pastor similar to Fr. Fritz.

I bet if you would have experienced Fr. Fritz, you would have been in my boat and not be a person guessing that Obama has not been forthright.
