Wright is wrong
It's amazing to me to see the elaborate contortions of fact and logic many Salonistas go through in attempts to defend their anointed one Oblaham, now showing perhaps fatal flaws. The kind of racist, anti-American, anti-Semitic hate speech spewed regularly over many years one would think would be anathema to those fancying themselves as "true liberasls", whose ostensible concerns are for human dignity, respect, and inclusiveness.
But somehow when the hateful,divisive, bigoted speech emanates from someone whose position Oblahma supporters desperately wish to justify, they go to almost laughable extremes to find some way to defend this malicious garbage. Can you imagine what many of these posters would say if the same type of racist and prejudiced stuff came from a white supporter of McCain, and it was about blacks?
And Obama's long and loyal association with Wright is another clear piece of evidence that he is a major hypocrite, and not even close to being qualified for the world's most important position-- even though he told us he's really not that close with Wright, (only 20 years), didn't really know anything Wright had said, and in any case really wants to "move past" the controversy-- I'm sure he joins many disgraced politicians who would like to ignore embarrassing but significant revelations about themselves.
Oh yes--one more thing. Fred B. has it exactly right, as do Simmel, Robby, and many others.
