Barack Obama, in this story, commenting on Rev. Wright. (March 2008):
In his Philadelphia address, Obama stood by his friend. “As imperfect as he may be,” he said of Wright a month ago, “he has been like family to me. He strengthened my faith, officiated my wedding, and baptized my children. … I can no more disown him than I can disown the black community.”
After losing a primary, his numbers falling in the polls, and trying to save his political career, Obama said April 29:
And I want to be very clear that moving forward, Rev. Wright does not speak for me. He does not speak for our campaign. I cannot prevent him from continuing to make these outrageous remarks. But what I do want him to be very clear about, as well as all of you and the American people, is that when I say I find these comments appalling. I mean it. It contradicts everything that I’m about and who I am.

the past is in the past and i’m sure we all have quite a few skeletons in our closet let it go>>>< HREF="http://www.getcreditsavy.com" REL="nofollow">credit repair<>
auntie lib: Thanks for visiting. You are probably correct in what you wrote when you said, “the good pastor nailed it when he said that Obama is a politician and says what he has to say to get elected.”>I don’t really believe that Obama is a racist, but I do believe he has a lot more explaining to do about his past. We’ll see if the voters let him slide. It should be fun to watch.>-Jack
Right. >>I think the good pastor nailed it when he said that Obama is a politician and says what he has to say to get elected.>>I say actions speak louder than words and twenty years of support for Rev. Wright drowns out the momentary verbal whisper to put some distance between the two. >>Obama is just like the Rev. Wright – an America-hating racist!!!!
