    I am “rooting” for Obama to win the nomination. We can’t beat Hillary the way things stand now. Obama is beatable.

    I say those chicks have come home to roost…..

    No Mr. Obama this does not contradict everything you are about.

    What it contradicts is everything you want us to believe you are about.

    Liar , Liar , pants on fire…..

    Meanwhile, Osama Obama continues to sit in that church with the same congregation that laughed and shouted and cheered and clapped at those anti American, racist remarks. What’s funny is to hear Alan Colmes refer to them as snippets. I didn’t hear any snippets. What I heard was a liberal diatribe.

    The worst part of all of this is that Wright has been propelled to the national stage and won’t be going away any time soon. We’re going to have to listen to his lunatic rantings again and again.

  8. little mike on April 29th, 2008 at 4:57 pm

    This is SOOOOOOO contrived I literally burst out laughing in my office and had people running in to see what was going on.

    They laughed too.

    7. raiderdav,

    His comments are music to my ears!

    ;P

    His uncle had Nation of Islam body guards around him when he went to the press event. OH I just love it when light is shed.

  11. trl3 on April 29th, 2008 at 5:05 pm

    The polls say Obama should be outraged, and walla Obama is outraged more than anyone has ever been outraged before.

  12. HomerJ on April 29th, 2008 at 5:11 pm

    Do ya think that Rev. Wright decided that he likes microphones and his newfound pulpit?

  13. FourAlarm on April 29th, 2008 at 5:15 pm

    The irrelevant O’s only excuse I’d believe would be that he was sleeping in church. His press conference reminds me of the lines from Casa Blanca… “I’m shocked, shocked to find that gambling is going on in here!”

    Wright is far from the only Marxist Obama hangs around with. Damn near everybody close to the guy is either a virulent racist or a marxist or both. No wonder he didn’t want to talk about what he believes in…nobody would dream of voting for him if he did. He ALMOST rode that whole peace love hope and change fantasy wagon to a nomination. It is pretty clear now that his entire political career has been guided by people like Wright, Ayres, Cone, etc. and he took great pains while in the Illinois legislature to not vote on anything even remotely controversial so that nobody could attack his voting record. His candidacy has been a cult of personality since the very beginning and as each successive member of the cult is revealed, he gets scarier and scarier.

    I never would have dreamed that there would be a candidate in this election that would make me HOPE for Hillary to get nominated, but Obama has succeeded.

  15. Big45Iron on April 29th, 2008 at 5:15 pm

    Little Mike, that’s the trouble with these people. They are such blithering idiots that you really can’t tell when it’s contrived, staged, etc., or when they are really at odds. Now obviously Obama’s remarks are contrived. But was the whole thing a set up by Obama to begin with?

  16. blackgirl on April 29th, 2008 at 5:44 pm

    Big45Iron, I also wonder if this is a plan.

  17. Big45Iron on April 29th, 2008 at 6:57 pm

    blackgirl, I’ve always felt minorities who were conservatives had an extra burden that they put on themselves. Somehow feeling like they had to make up for others of their own ethnicity - which is totally unnecessary - and at the same time being ostracized by those they grew up with who decided to go along to get along, not do what was right, just to avoid criticism from others.

    When I was growing up, I had many military heroes, and three men who were not military that I looked up to. Those were Booker T. Washington, George Washington Carver, and Glenn Cunningham, the runner for Kansas. The fact that two of these men were black and accomplished so much in an era and place where so much was denied them by society simply magnified their achievements and raised them up to a level to be admired by all people.

    I am afraid if today’s liberals were to read BTW’s book Up From Slavery today, he would simply be decried as a race traitor who was trying to “act white”, or an Uncle Tom. But if you read that book from 1895, you will see in there his repeated warnings of charlatans who would try to use the black race for their own gain - financial or political. BTW knew and did all he could to prepared people for life in real society in a meaningful way that would advance them and all they came in contact with.

  18. blackgirl on April 29th, 2008 at 7:17 pm

    Big45Iron,
    It took me a long time to figure out everything that looks good is not necessary good for me. It would really suprise you that there are many black conservatives out here that no long vote the straight D ticket but try to see what is best for them and their family. I am disappointed in this entire presidental race. We are going to get a president and most will not know what they stand for. I have learned to look over what one thinks of me. Most of the time I keep my politics to myself and don’t discuss it with other, that way I don’t have to keep explaining myself.

  19. Rahman on April 29th, 2008 at 7:27 pm

    What combatant Hillary could not do to Obama , Rev Wright did him in.
    still all is not lost for Obama, he can still be # 2 on the ticket.
    Beggars can’t be chosers.

  20. Big45Iron on April 29th, 2008 at 7:38 pm

    blackgirl, first I look at what is good for my country. That might not necessarily be in my best interests or the interests of my family. Liberalism is good for neither. That sure simplifies matters.

    Iron, tell that to Cheaney!
    His first loyalty is to his party and SECOND to his country and you guys love him.

    What these blithering idiots do is keep thinking that because we are stupid enough to cling to our guns and bibles that they can dress a Liberal up as something he’s not and we’ll vote for him.

    John F’n Kerry the War Hero? (Reporting for Duty!)

    rack bama the Racial Healer (I could no more disavow him than I could the whole Black Community)

    News Falsh for Obama:

    You shouldn’t have thrown Gramma under the bus instead of Reverend Wright.

    You only needed him to get votes in Chicago.

    New kind of politics my Aunt Fanny

  23. Big45Iron on April 29th, 2008 at 8:12 pm

    Rahman, is that your best noodle argument? And after this many years, you should have Cheney down by now. What have the Dems done to this country since they took over congress? Higher inflation, interest rates were going up until the Fed stepped in because the economy was going to pieces. Gas prices through the roof - I thought Dems were going to cure that? Oh, that’s right. They were going to make oil prices go down by taxing the profits of the oil companies. Never mind again supply and demand. Dems block drilling, refining, block intelligence gathering, tell our troops they are wasting their time and malign them at every turn, sit with racist ministers for 20 years, tell lies about getting shot at….and on and on and on.

    ” Dems block drilling”
    This talking point has no leg to stand upon.
    The truth is IT IS the oil company not interested and the reason is not all that difficult to understand.
    Have the temporary oil shortage which will translate into bigger pofits.
    Did you hear the first quarter earnings yesterday from 2 oil companies?
    $40 Billion.
    No, it is not typing error, it is with a big B.
    Same goes for refining. Oil companies are putting obstacles, not the dems you would love to mention!

    I know this is kinda late but I have been busy and so couldn’t get to my computer. So here is my “Top Ten” list of captions for this picture:

    1) The Reverend is really my father who left us when I was young.

    2) Reverend, you need to imply that HELLary put you up to this.

    3) Remember “BO”, you told me I could do the invocation at your inauguration.

    4) I’ll bet you didn’t know that “BO” wrote those sermons for me.

    5) Yeah, we have been in a lot of Father/Son events, why do you ask?

    6) Dad, you need to hold down the rhetoric if you want me elected President.

    7) Reverend, I want to show America that our people don’t need affirmative action.

    8) Son, you have to watch your back. That HELLary is one sneaky b*tch.

    9) Son, I don’t need to be Vice-President. A cabinet post will be okay.

    10) Yeah, I think we can pull it off. We’ve got them fooled so far.

    I hope everyone enjoys these.

    Unfortunately we lost the Nov 2006 election:

    Thanks for the clarification (Cheney = Cheaney).

    I was wondering if rahman had a problem with the NBA player Cal.
