Maturity: "Despite trying to debunk anti-Obama e-mails, the one thing that stands in my mind is how, for 20 years, Michelle and her children and her husband attended services at the United Trinity Church..."
Love the dry wit of your name. Anyway, I think it's funny you say that "for 20 years" in the same sentence as "Michelle and her children," which means you must think Michelle's children are in their 20s. Work on your math.
Maturity: "...whose pastor spewed such hatred of America and Israel."
Do your homework. He didn't spew hatred of America and Israel. He was critical of some U.S. policies throughout history, such as a little thing called "slavery" you might have heard of.
Maturity: "How can they not be influenced by such rethoric???"
Why can't you spell "rhetoric"? More importantly, why do you think you know what they heard, or what they were influenced by? Also -- why does it matter to you? And finally, what is your opinion of the emails (both of them) addressed in this article? What is your opinion of the practice of purposely sending out false and misleading information to prey on people's fears and ignorance? I would like to know what you think of that, instead of your obviously ill-informed opinions about Obama's former church.
Maturity: "If I went to a Temple and listen to such speeches I would have leaved right the way and protest."
You would have "leaved right the way"? Sure you would have.
James T. Kirk: "Hows that martyr complex working out for you?"
How's that lack personal integrity working out for you?
