Thread: Barrack and Hillary

    Barrack and Hillary

    Ah, the wonderful world of politics. Isn't it lovely!

    I'm very noncommittal when it comes to national politics however I do like to observe especially now that we have a black man and a white women running for president.

    This entire Rev. Wright thing is very interesting. I don't know the entire story and history on Rev Wright but I believe he's probably been preaching ever since the civil rights era. In any case I listened to all the controversal sermon sound bytes they have showed. I have no problem with any of them. As a matter of fact I agree with everything the man said. Granted he's not very diplomatic but sometimes you just got to tell the truth as you see it.

    In any case kudos to Barrack for standing by Rev Wright and trying to explain to the American people why he is doing so. It's not going to do any good. More or less he got up yesterday and told white America, "Yes, white people I am a black man." Bravo! However it's not really what a lot of white people want to hear. I think until last week many saw Obama as not really being a black man...That has changed.

    Will it cost him his opportunity to be elected president? Unfortunately now the answer is "more than likely". That said you have to hand it to the man for standing by Rev Wright and being honest with the people. Would Hillary have done the same? ......No. She would have left the church and condemned the preacher...that is if the polls told her that would be a good thing to say...sad to say Hillary has run the poorest campaign I've ever seen. Some of the things she has done and said simply defy imagination. "The results were fair and should be honored" comes to mind. Also, Barrack is simply not qualified to be president (she doesn't say it's because he is black but one has to wonder) however she says he's qualified to be VP....She says it's because he is inexperienced......well, one just has to look at Sen Clinton's record in congress to know that she's not exactly a major player either.

    In any case I would like to see Obama win but we will see. It would really be sad to see McCain benefit from all of this and get elected.....

    That Rev Wright guy is a disgrace. How you can claim to be spreading and teaching God's word and then say those racist, inflammatory things is ridiculous.

    If more clips of him come out, I'm certain they will contain anti-Semitic remarks.

    At this point, the question is how far away can we keep ourselves from hell. You should vote for the one that will screw things up the least when you don't like the choices.

    It may be that the man is outspoken. However not one thing that I've heard in any of these sound bytes is racist in any way.

    What?

    You're saying that America is both too stupid to realize Obama is black and too racist to elect him because of it.

    why isn't this moved or deleated by our great board moderator? I come here to check out what people are posting about KUNG FU and I see this crap. If I want CNN then I'll turn on the tube.

    Obama is a master politician. However you always see him in almost totally white crowds or mixed crowds. I don't think I've ever seen pictures of him in a crowd that was 100% black. This is not by accident. Do you think they are going to show him maybe campaiging down in Harlem? Maybe playing a little street B ball or rapping with some homies on the corner? Hell no they are not going to show that. They don't want Barack to appear too black to white America. In fact before his speech on monday I was wondering if this guy could really appeal to Blacks who felt he might not be black enough....I think he answered that question.

    Is America too racist to elect him..........the answer to that one is a big yes. If the GOP manages to group him with Jesse Jackson or Rev Al then you won't be able to elect Obama for dog catcher. Of course much of this is human nature. It's just natural that we are going to associate with people who are like us.

    In any case race is something that we tend to ignore in this country. It's refreshing someone such as Obama has the guts to actually say "Let's talk about it frankly"......For too long the conservatives have tried to promote this "color blindness" crap. It's time that someone stood up and said "You know, there are differences between black people and white people".

    because it is on the semi-official off topic forum.
    "George never did wake up. And, even all that talking didn't make death any easier...at least not for us. Maybe, in the end, all you can really hope for is that your last thought is a nice one...even if it's just about the taste of a nice cold beer."

    "If you find the right balance between desperation and fear you can make people believe anything"

    It's simpler than you think.

    Greetings..

    Trace Obama's spiritual lineage, from Wright to Cohn.. James Cohn of New York union's theological seminary.. who says, and this is a quote "Black theology refuses to accept a God who is not identified totally with the goals of the black community. If God is not for us and against white people, then he is a murderer and we had better kill him. The task of black theology is to kill all gods who do not belong to the black community. Black theology will accept only the love of God which participates in the destruction of the white enemy. What we need is the divine love as expressed in black power which is the power of black people to destroy their oppressors here and now by any means at their disposal. Unless God is participating in this holy activity, we must reject his love." Something just seems a bit skewed, here.. Now, Obama first said he didn't hear the kind of talk shown on the video clips of Wright, then.. well, maybe.. then, okay, so he did, but he rejects it, but not the man (Wright).. The problem is that people are too concerned with "political correctness" to utter the truth.. Obama needs to be accountable for 20 years of indoctrination by Wright..

    McCain? He's too confrontational and OLD... he has trouble keeping simple things in order, and.. very little economic comprehension.. The US is facing another depression and everyone is ignoring it, hoping it will go away.. it won't.

    Clinton? Best of the worst.. looking at the big-picture, she's has the best chance of easing the pain of the economic mine-field ahead.. as for the war(s), remember the Soviet Union? they couldn't afford to fund their military. It's closer than we think..

    The future is dim, it will take great courage and hard work to re-establish the US our forefathers envisioned.. and, the time to start is now.

    Be well..

    Wow, liberals on KFMO talking about the wonders of voting Dem, who would of ever figured

    Your kidding right?

    Rev. Wright is a American hating, idiot racist. He believes in black separatism and has actually stated that the HIV Virius was created as an act of genocide to be used against people of color.

    You actually have no problem with that......wait your from Boulder right

    Obamessiah is done kids, and it is his own fault for hanging out with jerk off's like Rev. Wright, and it has nothing to do with us "white devils".

    The guy was a empty suit anyway, nothing of any real content besides being able to really speak well, even if one of his speeches was pure Plagirism. If Obama was elected he would of destroy the military and technology edge America has in the world.

    Clinton? Best of the worst..
    Hilary is a disgrace as a human being.

    The only First Lady to testify before a grand jury in response to her white water scandal. That would be a horrible move to get those two criminals and their corrupt administration back in the Oval Office again.

    McCain is the best bet we have for what is on the table now, I wish he was much more conservative for my own taste, but out of all three, he has the most political experiance and is a true American War Hero and patriot.
