He is neither racist nor Anti-american. He asks America to face up to its shame-that equal rights for all American Citizens is less than fifty years old.
The shame is Bill's and JJ's. Obama's speech was brave, and onest. It's possible to move forward from the entreched positions expressed by Bill and JJ. if Americans is prepared to open their hearts.

I think Obama is the victim of a racial hatred. I believe, if he fails to confirm the nomination after these racial odds and even after leading to date in terms of popular votes, pledged delegates, and the number of states he won, the America will be devided nastily, a devision that can't be healed in near future, a devision which is not that worthy at the time when America is struggling with its Foreign Policy, its Economy and its credentials to the rest of the world... and if it becomes domestic mess, America will colapse, surely

jj newman, it's ignorant fools like you that make people think Texas is a backward state.
Frank Schaeffer, son of the powerful religious leader, Francis Schaeffer, recently penned these thoughts. "When Senator Obama's preacher thundered about racism and injustice, Obama suffered smear-by-association. But when my late father denounced America and even called for the violent overthrow of the U.S. government, he was invited to lunch with Presidents Ford, Reagan and Bush, Sr.....Take Dad's words and put them in the mouth of Obama's preacher (or in the mouth of any black preacher) and people would be accusing that preacher of treason. Yet when we of the white Religious Right denounced America, white conservative Americans and top political leaders called our words "godly" and "prophetic" and "a call to repentance."
John McCain was endorsed
John Hagee:
"All hurricanes are acts of God because God controls the heavens. I believe that New Orleans had a level of sin that was offensive to God and they were recipients of the judgment of God for that."
"Do you know the difference between a woman with PMS and a snarling Doberman pinscher? The answer is lipstick. Do you know the difference between a terrorist and a woman with PMS? You can negotiate with a terrorist."
George W. Bush was endorsed by
Rev. Jerry Falwell:
blamed civil libertarians, feminists, homosexuals, and abortion rights supporters for the terrorist attacks of Tuesday, September 11, 2001
"It appears that America's anti-Biblical feminist movement is at last dying, thank God, and is possibly being replaced by a Christ-centered men's movement which may become the foundation for a desperately needed national spiritual awakening."
"I do not believe the homosexual community deserves minority status. One's misbehavior does not qualify him or her for minority status. Blacks, Hispanics, women, etc., are God-ordained minorities who do indeed deserve minority status."
Rudy Giuliani was endorsed by
Pat Robertson: blamed civil libertarians, feminists, homosexuals, and abortion rights supporters for the terrorist attacks of Tuesday, September 11, 2001

To me, the key issue is that Obama lied to the American people about Rev. Wright. The Friday the videos started playing, Obama went on every TV show he could, saying he knew nothing, heard nothing and was surprised that any thing was said that was contorversial. Then during his speech on Tuesday, he admitted he did know that such controversial statements had been made. Also, if he did not know anything about controversial comments, why did he ask Rev. Wright to not give the invocation in Feb. 2007, when Obama announced he was running for president.
I have a great deal of trouble supporting a politician whose first response to a crisis is to lie about it.
As for his big speech, it could have been a great speech if he had just left out the cheap politics he kept injecting into it. So instead of a great speech it became just another campaign speech. Too bad.

"I always look at my work as trying to measure the distance between American promise and American reality," Springsteen says. "And I think (Obama's) inspired a lot of people with that idea: How do you make that distance shorter? How do we create a more humane society? We've lived through such ugly times that people want to have a romance with the idea of America again, and I think they need to.

Is this a joke? Obama infuriates a lot of whites at this point. Only a black would get away with a 20 year relationship with a racist anti-American hate monger and still be a candidate. Tell me this: would Clinton or McCain even still be in the race if they were aligned with a white hate monger? Of course not, Obama should not be allowed to give a speech and have the "audacity" to call for racial healing after associating with a racist/seperatist. Disgusting.
