re: #81 Spare O’Lake

I’m sure you’re not intentionally defending Wright’s racist claptrap (which Obama himself has repudiated in no uncertain terms).
Also, I’m not so certain that Falwell’s career wasn’t seriously affected.

1. I absolutely refuse to get involved in the stupid hand-wringing over Jeremiah Wright. So no, I will not be defending myself from your surety that I am not ‘unintentially defending’ him. Also, I could give a good goddamn what Barack Obama has to say on the subject.

2. Take a gander. If Wright dropped dead tomorrow, and Obama said he had lived a life of ‘faith, family and freedom’ what would the reaction be?

Falwell said the 9/11 attacks were ‘probably deserved’, and he got away with it.
