A new poll finds the president is a bigger albatross for the GOP nominee than Obama's former pastor is for Obama.
  • What a crap analogy

    Even as she appears to critique McCain, Joan is still demonizing Obama using Wright.

    George Bush is not like Rev. Wright.

    Rev. Wright served in the military. His big mouth and incendiary opinions aside, his 30 years of service tended to the sick, the need and children.

    Rev. Wright did not authorize torture, lie in order start a war, head up a party which openly pandered to the religious right then install lawyers trained at a fundemenalist law school in the Justice Department where they proceeded to purge people in the name of a religious agenda. Rev. Wright did not systematically undermine every reglatory body.

    Bush is the most unpopular president in modern history.

    Rev. Wright is a big mouth who deeply offends some people.

    Also, unlike Hagee or the religious right, Rev. Wright's firey opinions did not blame natural disasters on gay people or push any political agenda to take away rights from anyone, not the white people he criticized.

    So let's cut that crap out.
