Obama's speech was the bravest, most eloquent statement on race relations on America we have seen in our lifetime.

GAAAAAAAAH

Okay, I managed to pry that chip out of my neck. What the hell was I saying?

Registration's open? I'll pop the popcorn, but it's too early for a beer.

I love Obama acting like he didn't know anything when he's been recorded giving Wright a glowing introduction. So he's admitting he lied when he said all those nice things about Wright because he couldn't possibly known the man well enough to know if they were true or untrue.

The fact it's taken him this long is telling. Not that I needed anymore evidence that Obama has no business even running for president, much less being elected.

Obama is having a Daley Moment. That happens when Da Mayor is caught in the middle of something and goes on air to deny it. For some odd reason, the gambit works since it provides a diversion.

Don't be so certain. Obama is a snake like most of his Illinois Combine comrades. Saw a poll this morning on NBC-5 (WMAQ-TV) that showed over 50% of people claimed that the whole Wright episode would not affect Obama's candidacy.

What you are seeing now is what has been going on in Illinois for the better part of four decades, and in Chicago itself since the early 1930s. Obama is a product of this Machine, this Combine, and acts the part.

Another One Rides the Bus

Rev. Wright makes me ashamed to call him a fellow Marine.

We all have flaws.. countries have them too. Is this nation perfect? Of course not. Our flaws have been well documented. But America, which provides so much opportunity to all, and has given Wright such extraordinary blessings during his life.. for him to constantly pick at the scabs at the expense of all that is good is such a tragedy. If it was only about Wright and his coming book, and his million dollar palace out with Whitey, we could only shake our heads and mutter about his ignorance and hypocrisy. But the influence he has on younger generations of black people is so profoundly detrimental, he and others who spew his form of bile are just plain evil.

Rev. Wright... go F**ck yourself.

Gergen said that Obama HAD to immediately denounce/remove himself from Wright AND that Obama HAD to express ANGER. That was the "emotion" Obama needed to display if Obama wanted to get back into the race...During the Obama "speech" I noted that Obama claimed "anger" at one point -- but I didn't find it to be genuine...He didn't sound angry, he didn't look angry, and he certainly didn't sound outraged. Just the usual -- "doin' what's expedient." yeah, and "Wright didn't show much concern for me." Spoken like a true narcissist.

Are we really supposed to believe that bloggers, journalists, columnists and talk show hosts -- who have never even met Jeremiah Wright -- knew more about the Rev.'s extreme views than Barack Obama, who's known him, sat in his pews, and listened to him for twenty years? Is this really what his campaign and their MSM apologists want us to believe? How stupid do they think we are?

Not a word about the speech on the front page of Daily Kos yet.

They must be burning up the email bandwidth settling on their talking points.

re: #120 vagabond trader

Also curious to know if the Obama will be quitting Trinity. After all, the new rev is basically a younger version of the old one.

Not exactly. Wright is old school, generic racism.
ZThe new gut is hip hop. Honest to God he does tupac from the pulpit.
He is New school hate

BZee,

Even IF it were true
all that proves is he is far too fucking dumb
to ever be POTUS

Spoken like a "Typical Mediterranean Beige Person".

re: #24 Dirk Diggler

As a person of color I can safely say that Rev. Wright does not represent my views.

And as a Christian, I can say, with complete certainty, that the Ayatollah Wright does not represent my views.

Obama, Clinton and McCain are three of the worst candidates put up for the presidency in the history of our country. And they're all running at the same time! What the hell is happening to us?

I still say we need to line up about 4,000 Rome Plows in northern MD and bulldoze the whole shootin' match into the Potomac. Nothing left but the Constitution. Start again from there.

This batch of cookie dough we've been working on for 200 years or so is ruint...and, as any cook knows, a ruint batch of cookie dough can't be fixed by adding more crap to it.

re: #176 JammieWearingFool

I'm thinking the same thing. Media will gush over today's speech and say it's time to move on.

They'll say it's time to MoveOn.org.

"Yes, my friends, even though I have written that the first sermon I heard Rev. Wright give - the 'white-man's-greed' one - changed my life forever, I had absolutely no idea that he thought that the white man was greedy!"

Moreover, while Obama cannot be blamed for the sins of his father, I was also waiting for him to speak on his father's communist leanings "I can no more disown the teachings of my father than I can disown the entire Muslim-polygamist-family-abandoning-Communist-goat herd community!"

Heh.

hate consumes a person's ability to think rationally. none of these people: rev wright, michelle o,. osama himself, and the rest of the howling congregation in the big box church, are reasonable people. the ideology that holds them together is vile. it is counter to what most americans believe. these black separatist are a three ring circus and their dog and pony show of anger is not good for our country. it was inevitable that they would unravel.

re: #182 Charles

There aren't many diaries on it either. Just a transcript and a poll saying what a good job Obama did. It'll be interesting to see what talking point they settle on.

Fox re-running some of Obama's speech - egads, he was awful! Hesitant, sometimes with darting eyes back and forth, and nothing at all strong about it!

Obama's trying to rescue the TWPs he lost with his San Fran rich folks' party remarks. But I still think he has ticked off more than a few Wright lovers, and I'm thinking he'll end up losing more than he gained.

My money is on them going for the "Wright's a hired gun for Hillary" theory, Huffpos' already jumped on that.

From the previous thread:

To give just one example out of many: Wright traveled to Libya with Louis Farrakhan and met Muammar Gaddafi. Are we supposed to believe that Barack Obama never even heard of it?

Barack: He, uh.... I never... umm... we did not hear about... Umm.... Can't I just eat my waffle?

Careful. When you reference the Bible, be sure to clear it through the Rev......in case you're taking it out of context.

You can bet HILL wished this had all come out 6 months earliers now i am not sure she can pull it out.

OBAMA GOOSE WILL BE COOKED IN NOV. not sure hill can get it though,. i for one hope he gets the nod he would be the weakest of the two running against John McCain hill can get some of the TYPICAL WHITE PEOPLE vote obama can't

That is the problem. You think if we had all of the primaries that Obama won a few months ago now, he would win? I think not. I hate Hillary almost as much, but geez. Nobody knew anything about this guy until Hannity started talking about him because the MSM did not do it's freaking job.

re: #18 vagabond trader

and the LLL call W slow? 20 years to figure out Wright's character? This guy thinks we the people are so dumbed down and mesmerized by his brilliance that we'll let him piss on our toes and tell us it's raining.Condescending little prick.

He knew. This is just taqqiya.

From what I saw of the speech I thought he did a decent job of disavowing Wright's statements but why didn't he do this before? Why did he stay in the church all these years? After the 911 stuff and "Goddamn America" becasme public he still stood by Wright and refused to denounce him. Why now? I suspect it's because Obama told privately Wright to shut up and go away for a while but Wright refused. Obama's not denouncing Wright because of his statements, he's denouncing him because he can no longer control him.

It may not stick, but I think there's enough to bury him.

Hey, the Obamanation is lying right now -- "He was never my spiritual advisor." Yeah, sure, tell us another one why doncha?

Wholeheartedly agree. Makes me ill.

Rev. Wright received a standing ovation at the NAACP appearance.

I see this as a lose-lose for Obama. Voters of all shapes, sizes, and colors are jumping ship now.

re: #217 BabbaZee

Where do you FIND this stuff?! That was hilarious.

A quote from FoxNews.com comments:

"All you have to do is listen to Michelle Obama to realize that the Obama’s agree with Rev. Wright’s views. Is he going to divorce his wife if it is politically expedient?"

Couldn't have said it better myself. All of BHO's previous comments of record are REALLY going to come back & haunt him.

re: #251 cblesz

The Democratic party ought to pay for this by joining the Whigs IMHO.

Mr. Cookie brought up an interesting point regarding this beknighted primary cycle: President George W Bush had a 32% approval rating. That's pretty darn stinky as approval goes. The Congress under the Dems after 2006 had a 12% approval rating. That is abysmal! And yet, out of that deemed-to-be-pretty-much-worthless Congress, we have 3 of the suckers at the top of the presidential nominee page. Good grief, what the heck happened here? Who did this? It sure wasn't 'the people,' because 'the people' don't like the Congress, and don't think any of those bozos should be running our country. So how did this disaster occur?

Hey! Rev. Wright, how is it under the bus with typical white person grandma?

re: #232 RoughRider

Rome plows were large, armored, specially modified bulldozers used in South Vietnam by the United States military during the Vietnam War.

Huh, I thought they were from da big one, doubleya doubleya two. My mistake.

Does this mean Obama has disowned his Grandma and the whole black community?
"I could no more disown Jeremiah Wright than I could my own grandmother..."

re: #228 opnion

Think maybe these two are running a scam?

I would say that is an extremely safe bet. Yesterday morning early I ran across an article that stated that Obama had spent his campaign money to hire a PR firm to represent Wright & vet his speeches. (Written several days before I saw it.) And then within days/hours of that time he speaks to the NAACP - broadcast in entirety - and then the National Press Club - also broadcast in entirety - and now Obama disowns his remarks. Though as Shep Smith is currently pointing out, specifically NOT disowning Wright.

That looks to me like just a different version of the old shell game.

re: #211 Roger

I don't think they're going to settle on that one. They'll eventually settle on praising him for doing the right thing. Everything the Messiah does will be the right thing.

re: #248 Killgore Trout

Obama's not denouncing Wright because of his statements, he's denouncing him because he can no longer control him.

Exactly. He thought he nipped it in the bud with the 'race speech' in Philly, but that didn't stick. So then he tried blaming the moderators of the ABC debate and that didn't work.

Now he is forced to do what he has been avoiding for so long....not out of choice, but necessity.

This creates a personal problem.
I just re-registered as a Democrat for the Oregon primaries. The theory was to vote for Hillary and make sure this goes to the convention.
But now, if Obama implodes too soon, what are the chances that Hillary will get the nod?
I think Obama is the weaker candidate (although many Dems, like my wife, refuse to give into the Wright stuff, "No, he didn't mean that").

So the question is, who do I vote for now?

Should I still try to wound Obama, or does he need support to limp onto that stage in Denver?
