The hysteria over Obama's former pastor's attacks on America shows we're still in thrall to knee-jerk patriotism.

    It doesn't sound like you know what you're talking about--do you?

    With all due respect, it seems as if you've not been paying attention.

    I didn't know anything about Wright before all this either, but in the past few days I've managed to read some informed posts explaining in three dimensions the kind of pastor Wright has been, his legacy, his message, etc.

    You're perfectly welcome to offer your opinion, of course, but it sounds ill-informed.

    In fact, I believe there was at least one comment on this very thread offering a more three-dimensional view of Wright and his ministry.

    Please take a few minutes to read it, perhaps you'll find you're misinformed or at least, are only seeing one side of the picture.

    This issue is too complex to treat lightly. I mean, we can, but as Obama said so eloquently in his speech, that will get us nowhere.

    Don't you want to move forward?
