Re: Will We Ever Be Rid of This Meddlesome Priest?

posted by on August 13 at 11:07 AM

As PopTart points out, the New York report about a forthcoming screed by Reverend Jeremiah Wright is being disputed by Wright’s daughter.

I got this from Ben Smith, by the way, PopTart, but I’m terribly curious about where you found it. What kind of tawdry websites are linking to something this boring?

Religious types never stop their incessant blather. You know that. They think just because they believe something it must be true and everybody else must believe it too. This guy will not shut up. And Obama is the one who judged this man as "a good friend" in the first place. So who's judgment should we question?

Give it up, Vince. Anybody who's been paying any attention knows Obama had to join Wright's church to get anywhere in Chicago politics. A little cynicism is actually helpful when you're attempting to judge someone's character based on their diplomatic comments about their associates. Big fucking deal.

Nobody should be subjected to the filth I read, Annie. It is unseemly for a good liberal girl like me to admit to the degradations that I subject myself to.

@1
yeah @2 is right. Obama is a shrewd and amazingly successful politician. Why can't you recognize this is valuable @1?

He knows when to join the church, and when to dump it. He knows when to preach unity, and when not to. He can dance with the best of them.

You do realize that his typical move is fake right, then move left?
Well, guess what, he can also fake left, for twenty years, then move right.
Cool!

You better fucking respect that. We don't tol'rate any dissing of Obama here 'bouts, pahdner.
Unity,

Vince, don't be such a retard. Who the fuck cares about the Reverend Wright?

PC, we already know you're retarded. You don't have to keep proving it.
