It Kind Of Fits In WIth
[Read the article: Hillary Clinton, sniper fire and Sinbad]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]The Obama spokespeople talking to Canada saying the NAFTA stand is bunk, and the other one saying the Iraq pullout plan is bunk. Obama is never the one saying it. He doesn't know about it. Listen to his words.

[Read the article: Hillary Clinton, sniper fire and Sinbad]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]I give you credit. I take it you are defedning Wright's statements. There is honor in that. Much more that just plain denying knowledge.

I'm Not Going To Rank Them
[Read the article: Hillary Clinton, sniper fire and Sinbad]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Let's just suffice to say that what Clinton and Obama have done and said, and what they are now saying and doing has all been done and said for their own political purposes, and what they felt either improved their position at the time or would do so in the future.
The holier than thou game is over. I think it's even finally starting to sink in to the Obama supporters now.

[Read the article: King Kaufman's Sports Daily]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]I think UK has a hell of a coach. If the fans can be patient it will pay off. Next year may be transistional too with Bradley and Crawford departing, and then Patterson may go pro after next year. It's hard these days to have all the personel issues fall into place at one time, Pitino has found that out at Louisville. But as soon as Gillispie puts it together they are going to be hellacious. He gets players to play hard. There's been more improvement in Bradley, Crawford, and Stevenson in this one year than they had shown total before.

My Experience WIth Church
[Read the article: The difference between Jeremiah Wright and radical, white evangelical ministers]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Was as a youngster. The typical subdued, sleepy white church. I wore the little robes and lit candles. I forget the technical name of that position. While I was doing it I was just thinking about our previous or next little league game anyway.
It seems to me that just the regular menu, white or black church or pastor, is intellectually offensive. Virgin births. Raising from the dead. Fire below ground and angels somewhere out in space. Mass murder floods and floating zoos. A minute by minute, thought by thought, action by action report card being drawn up for 7 billion people.
When the regular menu is ridiculous, it's guaranteed that from time to time the half hour to hour long sermons will get pretty damn goofy and loud.

The Thing Is
[Read the article: The difference between Jeremiah Wright and radical, white evangelical ministers]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Much of what Wright said is more reasonable than the regular menu. I paraphrase. Wright's rhetoric is a little more flamboyant.
1.) The Government created disease to unleash on minorities........This one is kinda goofy.
2.) We, through Israel, have supported state sponsored terrorism against the Palestinians...........This one is worthy of debate. To us terrorism is a bomb under a coat in a restaurant. To them terrorism might be bulldozers rolling through villages with innocent casulaties in response.
3.) Muslim extremism is not caused only by guys that want to become ghosts and party with virgin ghosts. Some of the cause is linked to our foreign policy and actions over there..........This one is true.
4.) The American judicial system is weighted against blacks............This one is true.

I'm Just Praying
[Read the article: King Kaufman's Sports Daily]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]They limit the episodes of Knight and Vitale in studio exchanges..........It's getting close to Vitale dropping to his knees and going for his zipper.

Whole New ballgame With The Superdelegates

[Read the article: Barack Obama delivers make-or-break speech on race]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]My impression is that if we elect Obama, evidently, partisanship and divisiveness between the two political parties will end, and the race problems in America will dwindle away............Do I get a free new Mercedes and a lifetime pass for wings, beer, and dates with the waitresses of my choice at HOOTERS too?

[Read the article: Barack Obama delivers make-or-break speech on race]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]I already said. He gives very good speeches. If he's the democratic nominee I'll vote for him.......But I have very strong reservations about whether he can win. At least the Obama supporters for the nomination have started to wake up here lately. They were in fantasyland for a good long while. They actualy thought it was going to be some moving speeches, the entire democratic party would jump on board, and then glide to November and win by landslide.

The Best Part Of The Fraud
[Read the article: King Kaufman's Sports Daily]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Is when it's over. Then we can finally, for real, determine who the best conference was, and second best and third.....by the results of just a handful of very specific one 40 minute game matchups of one tournament.

Sorry To Disappoint You
[Read the article: Barack Obama delivers make-or-break speech on race]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]But there's just a little too much holier than thou in Obama and his supporters for my nostrils. That's the thing I detest most about the right wing. But fear not, if Obama is the nominee I'll hold my nose and vote for him.
