Since the onus of your position appears to be how many hours or time did Pastor Wright rant in that manner. My question is this, how many hours did he not rant? Do you know?

I already said I've only seen a clip once on TV. But I do know Obama has indicated the speech in the clip wasn't the norm. I have no reason to disbelieve him. And the likelihood that the video was created by the enemies of Obama indicates the preacher is portrayed in the worst possible light, and not in the light that Obama saw him week in and week out. Surely, if that were the norm another 2-3 hours of comparable material would have appeared by now, dont'cha think??

So those of you who believe the clip is representative of Wright and not the worst 10 minutes of 10,000 hours of unscripted public speaking have the burden of proof, if you're going to use that conclusion to attack Obama's decision to participate in the church.

Remember, no one cares about retired preacer Wright, the target here is Obama.

"buy the DVD's and give us a breakdown. Because, I doubt many others would have the stomach to support such a hate American church and purchase them."

Now Michael, 95% of those who call themselves dems is not many?

How else will Pastor Wright get his nobel peace prize?
