re: #114 MandyManners

I don’t get it.

BHO attended a church for 20 years in which Wright was a leader.

Now, pleaee apply that to the GOP.

I certainly wouldn’t make any excuses for Wright, nor for Obama’s long association with him. It appears that one of the defenses offered during the campaign, that Obama went to Wright’s church purely to advance his Chicago political career, is actually true. This was cynical and sleazy, to be sure, but it was not dangerous: The sincere acceptance of Wright’s detestable principles would have been dangerous. This is borne out by the ease with which Wright was tossed under the proverbial bus during the election campaign, and his ideology’s apparent lack of influence on the administration.
