The usual witch hunt
This witch hunt is the Standard Garden variety. Here's how a witch hunt works:
1) You find some teensy flaw in a candidate. In this case, the "flaw" is that someone, we do not know who, invited someone who said something once upon a time that Some Powerful Group does not agree with.
2) You use this to flay the candidate with.
3) Here's the fun part. Once a person is a witch, all who defend them are witches too. Thus, Obama can do nothing to escape the witch frame.
He actually has done something to atone for Marginal and Possible Witchyness. He invited a gay pastor. But GUESS WHAT! that makes him MORE OF A WITCH.
It's amazing. You can be sure of one thing: I won't be contributing, ever again, to any gay-advocacy group. Way too wack for me.
