one last thought on this issue...
Ya know, who's to say that Obama and Wright haven't openly disagreed with each other about these issues for many years? For all we know the two of them have had many a debate over coffee hashing out their respective world views?
I mean, I have a good friend, a buddy I've known for, lemme count...15 years now who believes some truly stupid shit. I mean really dumb tin foil hat, xenophobic bullshit. I can't begin to tell you the number of times we've gone round and round the mulberry bush on how we view the world and politics and theology and philosophy. I mean, by now it's become par for the course...after a few beers and the requisite catching up, we get into our well worn corners and debate, but always in a friendly manner.
He thinks I'm a naive idiot and I think he's a delusional moron.
but dude, we're still friends. We both realized long ago that you don't need to agree on everything your buddy thinks in order to be friends. (this especially helps if you have differing "types" of women you find attractive :)
what I'm getting at in a rrreaaallly roundabout way is; for all those who someone think Obama believes the stuff that Wright said, and use his staying in the church for all those years as proof - look at your friend group, any kooks in there? Probably is I reckon. How's that old saying go? "Lest ye that is without sin?"
cheers
