Once again the media is giving Obama a free ride in the guise of not being perceived as racists. Here is a man who has attended a church that has been the bully pulpit of a racist, Rev. Jerimiah Wright. Now the people who want you to believe that he is not a racist will say that Rev. Wright was only trying to promote black pride, now there is nothing wrong with that except when it is at the expense of other races, ethnic groups and religions. Rev. Wright could and should have promoted black pride in a positive way - not by damming America. Now for 20 long years Mr. Obama has been sitting in the church pew listening to all this talk. Although I have never been there I could bet that this wasn't the first time Rev.Wright has spew hatred in the name of pride. Mr. Obama did not want to throw this man under the bus because of his close father like relationship with him. So what if this man was really his father? Does that mean Mr. Obama can't distance himself from the man from the first time he said words of the nature he spewed. Mr. Obama wants it both ways.... When something is said of him in a critical way he cries racism.... When someone he knows spews racists remarks he cries pride..... Wow... in the old days this was called flip flopping. He needs to get a thick skin in order to take the critics remarks. What would he do if a foreign leader makes a critical remark about his leadership - cry racism or have Rev. Wright include the incident in his next sermon.
We need to find out who is this man Mr. Obama. We have to stop being afraid of being called racist if we question our leaders of their actions. That is right, if Mr. Obama wants to be our president - then he better be ready to answer all of the people questions, good or bad, supporter or not.
