Vote for whomever you wish, The Rev. Wright bashing is just spin to pander for your vote. He has faced good, bad, ugly things in his life in the real world , He is not from a cookies and tea and everything is beautiful world , which everyone wishes. When the repeated loop is shown on TV my mind races back to the Little Rock, marches, police dogs , water hoses turned loose on women and men doing nothing , beatings , 41 rounds in a innocence person ect . No the world is not pretty , yet this man found the courage to face his congregation every Sunday for many years. I have no problem understanding his frustration and anger at times.

How can the people support Obama when he is a racist. This man is as phony as a three dollar bill. Come on people, wake up. Just because he says nice things that people want to hear, like a chicken in every pot, does not make him any better than the KKK guy from Louisiana a few years ago. I remember the 60s SDS and the like and all the young adults that were going to make a difference, color blind and all. That was 40 years ago. Everything is close to being the same. Just that the government has hired more minorities.
