I wonder if Hillary Clinton will be asked to reject and denounce the endorsement of Gov. Ed Rendell. This diary will be short because what I am about to show you , needs no explanation. But for rules sake , I'll add some text below the fold and I'll throw in a poll so you can weigh in.
Ed Rendell, Clinton Surrogate, Passionately Praised Farrakhan in 1997
SNIP:
At issue is Farrakhan past remarks which have been widely criticized as anti-Semitic, including calling Judaism a "gutter religion." Obama has both "denounced and rejected" Farrakhan's praise for his candidacy. While, in contrast, Rendell, back in 1997, touted the need to reach out to the Nation of Islam so as to bridge the cultural and racial divides within cities.
"There were many people," Rendell proclaimed, "who [said] we were running a great risk by sharing this platform with the National of Islam. But you know, I know and everyone here knows the terrible toll that racism has taken in our city. And we know that the real risk is not being able to talk about our differences and try and make progress. And if everyone cares about ending racism and I believe they do, if anyone cares they should have been here. They should have been ready to talk and they should have been read to listen."
