"He says what he has to say as a politician"

[Seeker30]

I guess Wright really does speak the truth.

1. If your attention span could grasp more than 1 sentence, you'd already know that

[Seeker30]

4. I already knew Obama only says what people want to hear

But now we have confirmation.

7. Dude you better stay away from the violent TV and movies

you are ripe for being manipulated into committing mass murder.

[Seeker30]

9. That would apply more so to the Jonestown type cult you follow

Nice try though.

[datopbanana]

11. you HRC peeps sure have a lot of reasons why you lost.

oh well. maybe she will be a vibrant 69 year old and have another shot.

[EmilyAnne]

23. Do you know ANYTHING about the Jonestown cult? ANYTHING at all?

[Cessna Invesco Palin]

2. Indeed.

[bunnies]

19. oooohhhhhh.

The Labyrinth. I love that movie. Spawned my young-girl crush on Bowie back in the day. *sigh* :loveya:

[Skidmore]

3. So Hillary is a nun and John McBush is a saint?

What's your point?

Ah, methinks we've fallen through the looking glass, Alice.

5. Wright spoke the truth by his statements

He clearly said Obama was just another politician with old style political tactics. And he said america has blood on it's hands. How sick is that?

[ellacott]

15. America does have blood on it's hands

How can you deny that? Many posts on this board have stated the same thing. Our foreign policy along with our treatment of American Indians is a testament to that.

[ScarletSniper]

16. Uh America does have blood on its hands...

[thunder rising]

6. The public will surely watch the entire sermon to understand the context. No? They didn't. They

take Faux Snooze word as gospel.

8. count sneeker30 as part of the congregation

17. Thanks!

10. Funny, that's in sharp contrast to what Wright said last year about Obama

In a letter to the New York Times following an interview Wright felt was not reported properly, Wright wrote:

"For two hours, I shared with you how I thought he was the most principled individual in public service that I have ever met. For two hours, I talked with you about how idealistic he was. For two hours I shared with you what a genuine human being he was..."

Maybe Wright is now bitter because he felt Obama threw him under the bus, even though Obama took a huge political risk by refusing to disown him. Kinda sucks, IMO.

[datopbanana]

12. did you watch the whole interview?

its not like that at all

[democrattotheend]

13. No, is there a transcript somewhere?

[jefferson_dem]

14. Video posted in our video forum.

18. Quoting Rev Wright like bible scripture? Like it is some sort of absolute truth? Good grief.

[Seeker30]

20. No, quoting his words

Whats your problem with Wrights words?

[EmilyAnne]

22. He's not Obama. I'm not voting for him, I'm voting for Obama. You act like he's a resource of

insight into Obama's beliefs and character that can be tapped into any old time. Pick a Wright quote, any Wright quote, and there you have OBAMA! Good grief.

[Seeker30]

26. Uh..actually he is an insight into Obama's beliefs

Or do you know him better than Wright?

[redqueen]

21. Are y'all so fucking stupid you don't get that the man is a politician?

Honestly I don't know if these people can get any more idiotic... but I'm sure they'll show me how it's possible in the next few weeks...

[Orangepeel]

24. Don't be obtuse. The next sentence: "and I say what I have to say as a pastor"

is Wright calling himself out, too?

He has to say what he says because it is what he feels. Otherwise the second half of the statement doesn't make sense.

[AX10]

25. A broken clock is right twice a day.

[Forkboy]

27. Shocking! What does that make Hillary?

If you try to tell me she isn't exactly the same you lose.
