[QUOTE="diesel96, post: 316624, member: 9859"] Brett, why are you buying into all this off topic/issue nonsense ? Why can't pundits stick to the issue's instead of digging up video's of a canidate's preacher and judging a man's life work and teachings by a 20 sec excerpt? If one is to believe that Obama secretly harbors the beliefs expressed by Wright it is incumbent upon his accusers to show us the proof. Is it to be found in his writings? In his speeches or how he has raised a family... or maybe his voting record? Show us the proof of the fiery, racially divisive, figurative bomb thrower which is supposed to scare us into voting for the other candidate. I contend there is no there there. There is only a man living the very ideals he calls upon the rest of us to follow. Every Sunday thousands of right wing white preachers rail against America’s sins from tens of thousands of pulpits. They tell us that America is complicit in the “murder of the unborn,” has become “Sodom” by coddling gays, and that our public schools are sinful places full of evolutionists and sex educators hell-bent on corrupting children. They say, that we are, “under the judgment of God” and "you will burn in hell." They call America evil and warn of immanent destruction. By comparison Obama’s minister’s shouted “controversial” comments were mild. All he said was that God should damn America for our racism and violence and that no one had ever used the N-word about Hillary Clinton. And if you want to play the guilt by assocciation game, John McCain has snuggled up to the likes of the Republican friends Fallwell and Robertson who two days after 9/11 while the smoke was still rising and the buried survivors were taking their last breath at ground zero said this: [MEDIA=youtube]7vtBn36livY[/MEDIA] Which of them will Jesus smite first? (Question answered!) When the nation heard Falwell or sees Robertson or Hagee make some outrageous and patently offensive comment we are watching a white preacher, normally with a soothing southern drawl and a smiling countenance. When we see Reverend Wright in a dither during one of his rants, we are witnessing an angry black man. Quite frankly angry black men like Wright scare the snot out of most of the nation, especially little old white ladies. Pleasant sounding white fellows who preach the same sort of nonsense from the right are much less traumatic for most of us. [/QUOTE]
