I admire the black guy who had joined their protest. Blacks get a lot of crap from the bomb throwers when they go against the orthodoxy of perpetual complaint and victimization. The only reason that Obama is not rejected by the orthodoxy is that he co-opted it by joining Wright's church for Southside Chicago Street Cred.

On Jeremiah Wright.

1963 Navy Corpsman school, 1966, Bethesda Navy Hospital, on team that treated the Lie Don Johnson.

Now 1963 to 1969 what was one of the most needed things in Vietnam, ya, Navy Corpsmen, due to the high casualty numbers
almost all served 1 turn in Nam, "Jeremiah Wright" did not.

I, taxfreekiller smell Chicago Democratic hands on this .

Hi Ma! I have to say I was very glad to see the people protest weren't Hillary's people and not all of them were white. I wonder why some of Write's supporters though it pertinant to yell 'Long live Palistine'? What does that have to do with anything?

Even MSNBC sees the damage that Rev. Wright is inflicting on Obama's campaign:

There's still plenty of room under the bus, Senator Obama

*** You’re so vain, you probably think this campaign is about you: After addressing the NAACP yesterday in Detroit, Jeremiah Wright travels to the heart of the media beast -- the National Press Club in DC -- where he has been speaking this morning. At this point, no matter one's political inexperience, Wright has to know he's not helping his friend; his decision to go public and defend his reputation at this point in the campaign is doing nothing to help Obama, if anything, it's leading some to believe he's actually trying to sabotage him. He's hurting him and hurting him very badly. Frankly, it’s as selfish of a move as we've seen in some time. Imagine, for example, if Norman Hsu or Vicki Iseman were doing publicity tours right now. Maybe, if there's a silver lining for Obama, he's giving Obama a very easy chance to simply walk away. Remember, Obama didn't toss Wright under the bus, but Wright appears to be doing that to Obama’s candidacy. Still, if Wright Vol. 1, “bitter,” and Pennsylvania didn’t move superdelegates, what will? Nevertheless, Obama seems to be starting off this week in about as bad of shape as we've seen in him in some time.

Wrightm isn't running for public office, and clearly he loves the attention.

Meanwhile Obama is stuck with this albatross around his neck, since he refuses to dissociate himself from Wright.

As I see it, the more Wright foams at the mouth, the worse for Obama.

Look, even if he had disassociated himself from the get go from this stooge, the fact still remains and cannot be erased that he has sat and listened to this man's hateful screed 52 weeks a year for twenty years - more than 1000 times! There is no way that any claim that he "didn't know about Wright's views" could hold the first drop of water.

In fact, Obama clearly agrees with Wright, no matter what his mouth says. He has had his precious children indoctrinated into Wright's hateful and hate-filled philosophy from the day they were born!

I think its win/win situation for Rev. Wright. Obama wins and Wright has direct access to the President. Obama loses and Wright continues his career of creating fame and fortune blaming the white man for the ills in Black society. Any attention is good attention for the opportunistic Rev. Wright.

You don't have to convince me. Nothing Obama says can erase his decades long association.

That's not my point. The point is, the more noise this clown Wright makes, the worse it is for Obama.

So I say grab the popcorn and let him keep blabbing on. Let *everyone* see EXACTLY what kind of lunatic Obama has been hanging with for 20 years, is STILL hanging with, and let them see it every day until the election.

I learned a few threads back that i iz 2 unedjukated to blog corrxly and that Mr. Wright iz beyond my int-lectual grasp.

But I still think the man is a disgrace who uses communism (liberation 'theology') and race for self-promotion and to divide good American people. I think most people, regardless of their intellect, regardless of whether they take Mr. Wright's statement's out of context, regardless of whether they can understand the subtlety of his oration, know the man is asinus stultissimus.

Racist Farrakhans bodyguards protecting Wright. It's in the last inning and Obama is fading faster and faster.

Obama has only tax-payer funded Secret Service agents at his side. But the Rev. Wright is now accompanied by Nation of Islam henchmen, in stark contrast to the security detail visible during the Pope’s recent visit. How odd that a Christian pastor requires the security protections of Islam... Wasn’t it Islamic Jihadists who attacked our nation not so long ago?

Took a look over at AMerican Thinker at Obama's Voluntary compulsary national service plans.
He wants Peace Corps to be doubled in size and be open to other nationalities. Apart from the point that it's to get Americans out there, a different perspective CAN be useful, even at the village level, any country that has a population inclined to volunteering already HAS a volunteer corps, modelled on Peace Corps. England, Canada, Japan, Denmark and so forth. Even the United Nations has the U.N. Volunteer program (UNV), though as one would suspect, their pay looks more like a real salary and it's really entry level. A problem with such systems is that Peace Corps in the USA as an option means GIVING UP the cushy life for a while. In another country, as in most Third World countries with high unemployemnt, it's a PLUM JOB. Heck, in Europe, an international posting even on what we would consider a low salary is a great deal, too. Their unemployment rates are high, too. It makes for an odd mix - idealistic Westerners versus someone with high, usually family connections. It would also be a sneaky way to insinuate more jihadis around - shifty regimes using their rolls to get pay and relocation for their radicals.

Obama is soaked in what is already screwing up the schools, FORCING kids to "volunteer" in busy work, called "community service," which like all the other prison terms that schools have adopted, like "lock-down" and "weapons screening," is actually a term that means a legal punishment of "community service hours" in lieu of jail time, but in the schools is supposed to be enriching "volunteering."

Sum of it - the impression is that Obama wants to enslave the entire productive population of the United States via forced labor at bureaucrat-concocted work. It would of course devastate real volunteering.

ANd all this talk about an international Peace Corps with other nationalities is a sign that Obama is a Global Man, a ONE World Government Guy. He bee-bopped around the globe, he has no real affinity for the USA as a nation, and has easily bought into the borderless world. Isn't that what the no flag pin issue is really all about? He thinks global, not national. He would not protect AMerica's right to be an independent nation.

The scary thing about Obama is that he's young enough to keep running for President for the next two decades easily.
