    Hillary claims to represent the middle class. Should she really do that?

      Obama winning the election isn't Wright's concern. The truth is his concern. What everyone got their panties in a bunch for is Wright said God Damn America. Now everyone is making him out to be crazy, talking about all kinds of other things he said. Those other things are totally irrelevent. The fact that Wright kept saying those things is irrelevent. He has every right to keep saying those things, and he's got every right to speak the truth about Obama. If Obama can't handle it it's because he's a liar.

      This is all because the press and the public can't address the God Damn America comment. It's like Hillary on the O'Reily show. Wright is put down for saying it, and Hillary agrees, but there's no discussion about it. Everyone goes on pretending that God is real and America is his favorite nation because it is so moral.

      • Wright has a bigger concern than whether or not a Black man gets elected President or whether or not a member of his congregation gets elected president. He has an opportunity to raise issues in the media in a way where they might be discussed, which he won't have after the election. If he was willing to sacrifice his principles for the sake of getting Obama elected, he wouldn't have been a very good pastor, would he?

              That's why it's so ridiculous to condem him for speaking out. Keeping quiet wouldn't have earned him any points with you, would it?

                I would have thought mixing Masrxist ideaology with his theology would have been evidence of that.

                  • Well drawn. Much better than the idiots the college gets to do the cartoons here but really doesn't answer the point of why Liberation Theology should be a respected ideology within the broader Christian church. I assume that's the point you were trying and failing to get across if you wanted to take up che's claim of him being a good pastor.

                    • I understand that he has the rare opportunity to use this for a national platform for his issues, but when you listen to Obama's initial comments he metioned the the good rev was more to him than just a rev but a friend.

                      If the rev considered Obama his friend, then taking advantage of the situation at his friends expense is a pretty crappy thing for a friend to do.

                      With friends like the rev and Resco, Obama doesn't need any enemies.
                      It's almost as if all his overconfident, absolutist assertions were spoonfed to him by a trusted website or subreddit. Sheeple

                          Given that I'm not a Christian, I'm in any position to answer that question. But I respect religious denominations which advocate justice for the poor and equal rights for women and gay people a lot more than those that don't.

                          • Comrades,

                            "... I thought of the blinded, armless, legless soldier in Dalton Trumbo's novel Johnny Got His Gun , who, lying on his hospital cot, unable to speak or hear, remembers when his hometown gave him a send-off, with speeches about fighting for liberty and democracy. He finally learns how to communicate by tapping Morse code letters with his head, adn asks the authorities to take him to schoolrooms everywhere, to show the children what war is like. but they do not respond. "In one terrible moment he saw the whole thing," Tumble writes. "they wanted only to forget him." In a sense the novel was asking - and now our returning veterens are asking - that we do not forget. "
