Obama Calls for Racial Unity


www.boston.com
"For some, nagging questions remain," Obama conceded. "Did I know him to be an occasionally fierce critic of American domestic and foreign policy? Of course. Did I ever hear him make remarks that could be considered controversial while I sat in the church? Yes. Did I strongly disagree with many of his political views? Absolutely -- just as I’m sure many of you have heard remarks from your pastors, priests, or rabbis with which you strongly disagreed."

I don't understand what this means? You obviously can't choose your family, but you can choose your spiritual advisor. Obama chose Jeremiah Wright, a racist.

Obama is not a product of his background but has risen above all that was negative to make something of himself.

Has he risen above all that? Why then did he continue to associate with Wright for over 20 years?

What did they teach you at your church ?

I can honestly say the there has not been a single instance when my priest(s) ever uttered a single racial word.

I have not heard the speech. I'm sure it was nice. Obama's problem here is his original denial of ever hearing Wright's inflammatory rhetoric.

But he atoned for it, I'm told, by throwing his white grandmother under the bus during the speech.

Repubs will do no such thing because they would not be able to get away with it. Plus the Dems are doing a good enough job as it is.
Both Hillary and Barack are involve in some type of political drama while McCain is the only one looking Presidential with all his recent activities.

How can Obama unite a country if his own people are divided?
