    •  then he lied to America (0+ / 0-)

      last night when he said on every interview that he was not.

      Nobody believes that.  He is insulting our intelligence.

      garbage that has been pumped into our houses (and brains) 24/7 by the White House, Rove, Faux, Drudge, Novak, Hannity, the Clinton race baiters, Mark Penn, etc., I think it timely that this bullshit get called for what it is is.   It's bullshit.

      Who here hasn't thought many of the things that Wright had said at some time or another?  Maybe we haven't had a congregation but I know that MANY of us would have said similar things at times...and would have loved a congregation.

      The HRC supporters here know it's bullshit.  If they don't, they have serious problems.  Rather, they are gleeful about the possibility of Obama taking a hit.  Seems pretty sick in my book to endorse such tactics, which when thought about, really do undermine free speech and the American liberal tradition, but they have to live with their consciences and duplicity.  Myself, I call it bullshit.

        Man, you said it.  Maybe they aren't racists, but they have no problem reveling in it and exploiting it.

    •  I agree (0+ / 0-)

      I heard some of his remarks on KO last night and I thought, "Yeah, so?"  I didn't hear anything that particularly offended me.
