So if we were all to be judged by association, we'd all be guilty of something in your eyes. You are a silly little man.

I dont believe you are right about Wright. Its more complex than you make it out, both the history of african americans in the US and their adaptation of southern bible belt christianity. (i am not an expert on religion).
Tonite Wright will be interviewed by Bill Moyers. I suggest you watch that. I have seen snippets. Wright is radical no doubt and carries with him some of the rage african americans feel about their history here. The younger generation as it integrates is getting over it, but listening to wright is like listening to my dad talk about the germans and what they did to the jews. Is american nazi germany? No. Was the era of slavery a blot on our history and did it victimize a race of people? For sure. Obamas candicacy itself proves both Wright and Tejek wrong because while bigotry persists, racisim is largley gone from the american scene particularly with our younger generation.
Sort of a rant--hope it made some sense.

Your boys have spun this thing so much you all don't even know what he said.

I know anti-Americanism, hate speech, and racism when I hear it. And this man is guilty of all three, and by virtue of his support, Obama is as well.


Then by your evaluation, McCain has the same problem.......support from a radical minister. So did Bush......in fact, he had several in his corner. Funny, how there was not a hint of a complaint from you.......in fact, you continued to vote for Bush.
