Response to Original message
22. So, what of it?
Obama likened his pastor to an old uncle that he doesn't always agree with. Are you telling me that you agree with every single thing that is said by every single one of your relatives?

And, in his "god damn america" sermon, he blames 9-11 on our government's foreign policy. Perhaps Wright's way of delivering the message leaves something to be desired. But, do you not agree that our foreign policy had something to with those attacks? Or do you buy the bs line that they really hate us for our freedoms?
