If it is your intent to keep trying to make it a political issue, then stand aside. If you need help, I will help you. You just have to let me know

What kind of help do you purport to offer Jozef Halada? This is a political thread, isn't it?

Truly, it is a bit whack to profess, "We are a congregation which is Unashamedly Black":

CSFO,

simple. At one time you tried to engage this thread in the never ending Jewish hate issues. I requested you to desist from such post and you obliged.

Yes, because you were right and I was wrong. It was going too far off topic. I understand that this is Barack Obama President thread.

The current issue about Obama's pastor is a racial issue. The feelings of the entire African American community has been hurt so much so that a ardent and respected Civil Rights leader who love the Clintons, broke ranks with Hillary and came out in support of Rev. Wright. This tells me that it is no longer a political issue.

On this, I disagree. There isn't anything more on topic than how Obama deals with Rev Wright issue. While Obama stands on both side of the issue (condemning and condoning at the same time a preacher who preaches hate of white people), he will lose white vote - general election white vote.

The issue has already made Hillary more electable than Obama vs. McCain:

McCain (vs. Obama) +0.4
McCain (vs. Hillary) -0.6

This is a stunning reversal over last number of months, when Obama lead Hillary in electability in general election. Nobody is talking about it here.

If you want to be Jim Jones, and turn this thread into Jonestown Guayana, maybe you can just ban me, and continue dispensing Kool Aid.

PS: While on topic of keeping this thread useful, did these 2 posts escape you?
