Barack Obama: On My Faith & My Church

[TML]

This is Barack Obama's response to the Rev. Jeremiah Wright video nonsense. If you choose to still bash him after reading this, then it's obvious that you'll never like Barack Obama no matter what he says or does.

1. good strong statement

by obama. nice job

2. Will it satisfy DU?

Will it satisfy Clinton's supporters that are all up in the air over this?

[Fresh_Start]

3. doesn't matter about DU...matters about GE voters

and I'm not a good predictor about what happens in the GE. I still cannot believe that America elected GWB twice.

5. Just have him make a ad

it will sell to the public.

It is a perfect pitch statement.

Just like JFK comments circa the Pope in 1960.

:dem: :toast: :toast:

[we can do it]

6. Take a Pill

It was troubling because 1- I'm a woman whose had PLENTY of dicrimination directly affect my life. 2- I want our candidate to represent EVERYONE in the USA, not just blacks. So chill already, we're supposed to be on the same team.

9. Wouldn't that be something..

if we were all on the same team? Maybe the human being race team. What a concept.

10. You haven't had the same kind of discrimination

I am a woman also, we don't face the same kind of bigotry, sorry, but it is different. He does represent EVERYONE in the USA, his church doesn't have to though. His church is in a black community, and the majority of the members are black so that church deals with black issues.

Don't try to make this seem like Obama is only out there for black people, that is ludicrous.

4. COOL - OUT STANDING

Way to get on top of this thing and snuff it out.

No wonder why I want him to get elected.

No one can argue with his statement.

:bounce: :party: :yourock: :patriot:

7. Well I hope this put this subject to rest...

[OnceUponTimeOnTheNet]

8. In article~ Wright was a Marine.

?! First I heard of this, thanks MSM(sarcasm). Looked for a pic of him in uniform, no luck. He ought to put an old photo on cyber space in uniform, that way it can be turned into an Clinton attack on a black military service member.

11. Someone can both serve and critique this country. It is not at all odd.

p.s. I don't think what Wright said was "for" black people. If someone recalls something please post it (meant sincerely).

[madrchsod]

12. people hear what they want to hear

no matter what someone has to say.

it`s never been about wright, it has been an effort by someone to smear obama by bringing up these video snips at this time. who is benefiting by this at this time?

13. Typical Religious Prevarication ...

His Faith is in God; not in Jesus, not in his Pastor, not in his Church.
