He’s outraged…now

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.

  2. 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

  3. 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!!!!
