But to merely call what the reverend has said to be "controversial" I think is wrong. It's one thing to be controversial, it's quite another to say that America deserved to get 9/11 and that white America is to blame for all that is wrong in the black community.

The hard part is that Obama considers this man to be a mentor, and if you are in a relationship like that with someone who spews hateful things for so many years, and yet you choose to continue to be friends with him, that says a lot about you as a person, and not in a good way. Obama made a statement by sticking with this guy for so many years, and not rejecting him yesterday, 5 years ago, or 15 years ago.

Hi Newsislame --

I'm not on anyone's payroll but this company. And whose payroll are you on newsislame?

How do you get so much time to troll around this website and endlessly repeat your observation that Obama's middle name is Hussein.

Can't you attack Obama on his health care plan, his Iraq plan? His speaking style? Who he gets his money from? Issues related to campaign finance. Who can put together a Electoral college majority to win the Presidency?

If you're a voter in a state like California, who you vote for President is of little importance because this state is expected to go into the Democratic column, if the candidate is Obama or Clinton.

Can't you freshen up your anti-Obama rhetoric a little bit newsislame? There is more than one way to skin a cat.

Bill Bennett brought up Obama's middle name on CNN like in January, after Iowa.

hope everyone now sees who Obama really is..a complete lie with racist influences ..its no wonder Farrakhan endorsed him ..its no wonder he had a racist American hater pastor not only as his mentor and spiritualist but a member of his campaign..until he was doing well its no wonder his wife was never proud to be American..the only reason he most likely voted against the war is he hasn't a patriotic bone in his body only loathing for the military and this country while they shed their blood for cowards like him so he can run for the presidency while he calls racists his friends ..and say God damn America..

Jay,

It was the Clinton surrogates who brought up the "Hussein" Obama thing first...at least get it right...

"...Every Sunday thousands of right wing white preachers (following in my father's footsteps) rail against America's sins from tens of thousands of pulpits. They tell us that America is complicit in the "murder of the unborn," has become "Sodom" by coddling gays, and that our public schools are sinful places full of evolutionists and sex educators hell-bent on corrupting children. They say, as my dad often did, that we are, "under the judgment of God." They call America evil and warn of immanent destruction. By comparison Obama's minister's shouted "controversial" comments were mild. All he said was that God should damn America for our racism and violence and that no one had ever used the N-word about Hillary Clinton.

Dad and I were amongst the founders of the Religious right. In the 1970s and 1980s, while Dad and I crisscrossed America denouncing our nation's sins instead of getting in trouble we became darlings of the Republican Party. (This was while I was my father's sidekick before I dropped out of the evangelical movement altogether.) We were rewarded for our "stand" by people such as Congressman Jack Kemp, the Fords, Reagan and the Bush family. The top Republican leadership depended on preachers and agitators like us to energize their rank and file. No one called us un-American."

To dfdeportation - TIP: Critique the author, and what he says, not the link.

and to dfdeportation - you're 100% correct, Hillary Clinton's campaign is pushing this stuff as hard as they can. They have the most to gain. Seems both Obama and Clinton are pretty confident they can beat McCain in the general election. Which is very likely.

The numbers to look at are in the ELECTORAL COLLEGE. National polls don't mean anything at this point. The question for McCain is can he keep all the states Bush won in 2004, and the electoral college victory needed to take the White House. Doesn't look likely. Ohio and quite a few Southern states look really dicey.

Jay,

Are you suggesting I shouldn't make a judgement call on somebody like....Roger Mahony? On May 1, you and the misses can take your new baby out to meet him, and say, "see precious, what a nice man this Roger Mahony is". I'm sure he'll be ther too. As for McCain, he can't get any money or volunteers for his campaign. ha ha ha ha He's over in Israel and England trying to get as much money as he can get. ha ha ha And Democrats had TWICE AS MANY Repulican voter so far in these primaries...Sorry Jay, I'm NOT a kool-aid drinker.

No matter what color a person is, when they make as much of a big deal racially toward anyone regardless of color like Mr. Wright does I think it says something about the way their character- duh. And I think it says something about Barack Obama having this guy as his pastor for so many years. I mean, if you dont like that way someone is and what they preach why do you spend every sunday with 'em? I say hope for the best and expect the worst. God Bless America.

ddain...You don't make enough money at Fox News for it to be in your economic interests to vote for a Republican.
