From Mike Allen at Politico — so this is what Drudge said was the “developing” story:
Wright to Obama: ‘Coming after you’
The Rev. Jeremiah Wright said Monday that he will try to change national policy by “coming after” Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) if he is elected president. [...]
“I said to Barack Obama last year, ‘If you get elected, November the 5th I’m coming after you, because you’ll be representing a government whose policies grind under people,’ Wright said.

OT: That’s it. I blocked MSNBC. Mitchell was on with some clown telling us we have to let the Wright thing go, that Wright said those bad things not Obama. I only caught a moment of this as I surfed by. I bet he conveniently left out the part of 20 years. Then the tease for the next segment was Mitchell with that smirk on her face saying something about Bill Clinton being the gaff machine.
Fuck you Mitchell and fuck you MSNBC. Your channel is now blocked.
I guess Mitchell did not get the memo from the American people stating Obama is toast.
Ditto. This morning, Mitchell told us that Obama’s speech on race was “beautiful” (she didn’t say that she specifically enjoyed the “beautiful” shot at Geraldine Ferraro) and backed down when Axelrod challenged the very IDEA that this whole situation might be hurting Saint Barack.
Enough. I don’t know who the fuck Mitchell thinks she is, but I can decide for myself what’s important, thanks anyway you self-satisfied little toads at MSNBC.
You are BLOCKED. And you WONT be missed.
“You are BLOCKED. And you WONT be missed.”
What’s the point of “blocking” them–so you don’t slip up one night and “drunk-dial” MSNBC? Don’t you have the self-control to simply avoiding tuning that channel?
Jeff, don’t you channel surf? Now when I channel surf I don’t see MSNBC at all. I take great pleasure not seeing Andrea Mitchell’s smirk even for a second.
actually is is none of your business. capice!
Andrea Mitchell is another Obama leghumper for McCain. You can smell the neocon stench a mile away.
Oooooohhhh…..Juicy…….Thrash…..well said…..
Actually, she was a decent reporter until she got her own show.
BTW-her real name is Mrs. Alan Greenspan.
Who’s her daddy? ‘ole greeny loves him some McCain. You know she could not cover the Fed as long as he was there. Now that he is gone, she has not covered much of anything with any objectivity.
“Fuck you Mitchell and fuck you MSNBC. Your channel is now blocked.”
What’s the point of “blocking” them–so you don’t slip up one night and “drunk-dial” MSNBC? Don’t you have the self-control to simply avoiding tuning that channel?
Jeff, don’t you have the self control to not post here? You’ve never said anything relevant or interesting.
Why don’t you go hang out with the other little boys who are busy stenciling Andre the Giant around town. Maybe help them plan a riot or two. Go hear one of your messiah’s inspirational speeches. Volunteer to assist Rev Wright on his 08 Tour.
So long, farewell, Auf wiedersehen, good bye.
“You’ve never said anything relevant or interesting.”
Yes, and your contributions to our national conversation rival The Federalist Papers…
Jeff, don’t you channel surf? Now when I channel surf I don’t see MSNBC at all. I take great pleasure not seeing Andrea Mitchell’s smirk even for a second.
GOOD GOD.
What we have seen all weekend IS what Barack Obama saw for TWENTY YEARS in that church.
This is nothing NEW to Barack Obama. Jeremiah Wright hasn’t said anything this weekend and today that he hasn’t said hundreds, probably thousands, of times over the 20 years that Obama sat in those pews.
The media are so clueless.
Susan,
Are you seriously saying (again) that all Wright has preached in those 20 years is just what was encapsulated in the snippets that have been mindlessly and with out context run over and over again? If that’s the case, how come there aren’t more examples to cite?
That’s ridiculous…
Kevin–
My pastor would only have to say any of those things ONCE, and I’d be outta there so fast the collection plate would like like frisbee as a ran by.
And sane and decent person would not sit in that church the minute Wright started in on the 9/11 victims, or perhaps the pelvic thrusts, or perhaps blaming US for AIDS, or calling us the US of KKK.
Is the love soooo blind for Obama that people have forgotten that Wright called “white people” the “enemy”. I watched the tapes…
So.. Kevin and Jeff and the trolls, et al, would obviously be fine in a church where the Pastor screamed that “black people” are the “enemy”. God.. you are such racists!
“started in on the 9/11 victims, or perhaps the pelvic thrusts, or perhaps blaming US for AIDS, or calling us the US of KKK.”
Cat, why don’t you start by citing exact specific references rather than putting words and meaning into his mouth? “started in on the victims”???
And please - where in the tapes does Wright call “white people the enemy”? So, you “watched the tapes” - I presume you mean you watched those clips that were run over and over… not the entire taped sermons. So - you can point to a time signature on said YouTube “tapes” that backs up what you believe you heard and saw right?
Just curious - because what I’m getting from your comments is not so much what was actually said, but how it’s been taken and then re-echoed throughout the blogosphere.
Also, since you brought it up - is it your contention (as she stated) that Hillary would immediately disassociate herself from a pastor who said something she personally disagreed with? And think carefully… she herself had to backtrack from that statement after she made it.
Again - we have this mischaracterization that ever single sermon was nothing but “Hate Whitey”… when that’s not the case - which was my only point to Susan.
And before you deign to even try and presume what my religious, let alone personal beliefs would be - let alone how I’d react to someone saying something I vehemently disagreed with - ya might want to actually realize you can’t speak for me or for anyone else. You can only speak for yourself.
The trouble with being Kevin;
A Separate Reality
The Ghost of Obma future is not to far off now Kevin, he is beckening, standing in the cold mist with a skeletal middle finger. Hark, he call you now…be ready.
“hasn’t said anything this weekend and today that he hasn’t said hundreds, probably thousands, of times over the 20 years that Obama sat in those pews.”
pretty damn presumptuous on your part… or is it merely that to broach anything other than that framing would be to expose your premise as being fatally weak?
Keep in mind that what we’re hearing is the cleaned-up version! This &^%* would seriously warp your brain if you were exposed to it for any significant amount of time. And I give you Exhibit A - Barack Obama!
That was only chinless Bradley!
He’s a Loser shill like Kerry, Kennedy & Leahy.
Although I have NOT seen Leahy out cheerleading for Barry lately.
Oh I never watch MSNBC any longer. I tune into Dobbs and click CNN off and on depending on the face I see. Cafferty goes Click. So does Roland. Mostly, I have been tuning into FOX, for the first time in my life.
what is going on here?
With me or the spam or? I was just blowing off steam.
I’m bewilder by the reality that this man exist, for so long, and inflict this kind of wound to the American racial unity. I think he fancies himself as the civil right movement hero and want to bring America back to the sixty.
Rev. Wrong…I’ll join up with your church anytime….
I try to speak the outrage others may be afraid to.
Your 10 point tithe can be made in easy weekly payments. 
LOL…..I’m poor will you accept crackers….
LOL “crackers” was that a Freudian slip?
Ehemmm……No…..Given the soaring price of Grain on the world market…..I promise to send them in a moisture proof tin….Remember kids….Horde your rice….Chuckle….
Susan is there is a workaround to the spam problem so people can post whatever is getting filtered?
No, dammit. I asked our WordPress expert about it several times. It’s a system-wide WordPress issue and they’re trying to fix it.
HOWEVER: In some cases, if one uses a very common name, it’s really hard to find and retrieve one’s legit comments. E.g., Simon was getting caught in the spam filter but when I searched for Simon, I got all of the PORN sites that use the word Simon. So Simon began posting as SIMON TOO in order to make it easier. It also seemed to cure his issue with getting caught in the spam filter, I think …. but am not entirely sure.
Drats!
You’ve discovered my secret career as a porn star!
Hey, we all have to make a living…I’m kidding…
Anyway, yes, it did seem to work, perhaps the word “too” hasn’t been co-opted yet by the character recognition systems, but I expect it soon will…
Simon…Did you try “Simon Says..” “Simon Sez”
“..??
“Socrates Simon” or “SimonDidIt”….??
Jest….Wunderin..
I like “simon, too,” but I suppose I can do the variants.
I Like Simon Too…
Templer maybe?
I like “SAINTS” too..theres` a long story behind that..
Be sure to watch the short video that’s embedded in the Politico piece.
In regard to the post below, how can anyone heart this guy? Rev Wright is a nasty man. His ugly, arrogant and self-aggrandizing comments CAN’T be helping Obama.
good question?
FOUND IT… and added it to the story. Thanks, Mary jo!
“Fuck you Mitchell and fuck you MSNBC. Your channel is now blocked.”
That’ll show ‘em!
Yes it will. I can and will email them and my television service provider and let them know I have blocked that network and why. Never underestimate the power of one especially with the viral nature of the Internet. Someone could view this discussion and take the idea and expand upon it. Ironically you are too shortsighted to have left my comment alone and look what you did: You inspired me to write this. Thanks!
The hubris of you and your candidate continue to amaze me especially considering the deep trouble your campaign is in. Don’t count on your shills on MSNBC to bail you out.
“Ironically you are too shortsighted to have left my comment alone and look what you did: You inspired me to write this.”
Don’t worry, I’m comfortable with the infinitesimal impact your commenting and television viewing habits have on the national discourse.
Here you go again ignoring the power of the individual. I think if my “infinitesimal impact” was of no real concern you would have stopped harping on this already. But I think you are very concerned.
So people: block the channel if you want and let MSNBC and you television service provider know and let them know why. And please do tell them Jeff said not to worry as you will only have an “infinitesimal impact” anyway.
“I think if my “infinitesimal impact” was of no real concern you would have stopped harping on this already. But I think you are very concerned.”
No, I just find it hilarious that you so lack the self-discipline to simply not tune a channel you abhor, you have to “block” it.
And you ignore the two times I replied to that:
Keep laughing if it makes you happy. And I am making a statement by announcing I am blocking it. And a statement you seem quite perturbed about.
Jeff is biting his pillow…..Shapin up to be an EXCELLENT WEEK
for Sen. Clinton….
Yo, Jeff. You might want to hurry outside NOW. I heard that Obama has a bus he’d like to throw you under.
Kristol in the NY Times this morning.
“But he’s not willing to have a real debate with the real person he’s competing against for the nomination.”
Even though there have already 21 frigging debates thus far.
Four.
“Four.”
Twenty-one (we can do this all day!)
Tastes Great! Less Filling!
I can understand why he doesn’t want to debate her for the 5th time.
One on ONE of course you understand.
He can’t win for losing with Hillary.
If he gets rough with a women it just wouldn’t look right and by turning it down for the 5th time he only looks like a coward.
I guess he figures that’s the lesser of the two.
Jeff..Do Your Homework son, there have only been four debates between senators clinton and obama..thats the point..now OBAMA IS AVOID MORE WHEN THEY MATTER MOST…THAT INDICATES HE IS AFRAID OF THE Possible issues that can be raised ..like these curent comments By pastor Wright..He isin a Damage control mode..
What’s the point of another debate? So some pundit can ask if he was really giving Hillary the finger in that video, or just scratching his face? According to everyone at No Quarter, this is one of the paramount issues of the election.
If they start asking some legitimate, policy-oriented, non-gotcha questions, maybe he and his supporters would be interested.
Spin all you want, Obama was challenged to debate one on one and has shown us his cowardice.
“Spin all you want, Obama was challenged to debate one on one and has shown us his cowardice.”
Right, even though he’s participated in 21 debates thus far, including the “four” that meet your approval.
More spin same non-result for you Jeff.
What’s the point of another debate? With you not much apparently. As to the “less filling” comment. BO has backed away more ebull than a Texan with a shovel could suvive.
Say who are the Rev Wrights bodygaurds…NOI ? It isn’t Blackwater…
Ibeer’s all around; on me folks!
Nothing like brand new string.
That’s the best you can do? You don’t matter. Most people want to see more debates one on one and I think the Republicans will use Obama’s cowardice on the one on one debating issue against him.
You really do need to get a new script. When I mention the debate issue I always say “…the 4 debates they have had one on one…” to preempt the 21 retort. Do we really have to say this evey time? This 21 thing, yawn.
” Do we really have to say this evey time? This 21 thing, yawn”
I know the truth is boring to you.
YES there have been 21 debates. The point we are making is there have only been 4 one on one debates. We know the 21 number is the truth. And the more pertinent truth is Obama is a coward and won’t stand on the same stage as Hillary. Keep harping on the 21 thing as it shows the inherent weakness in your argument.
“The point we are making is there have only been 4 one on one debates. We know the 21 number is the truth. And the more pertinent truth is Obama is a coward and won’t stand on the same stage as Hillary.”
You just did an end run around your own argument. You agree that Obama has stood on the stage with Hillary one-on-one 4 times (not to mention 17 others). Then you say he “won’t stand on the same stage as Hillary”. Sorry, buddy.
Sorry, I typed that in a hurry, should be:
Obama is a coward and is no longer willing to stand on the stage with Hillary.
Oh thanks for pointing out my error.
Why do you make ridiculous arguments? You know what he means, and you’re wasting our time. Perhaps that is your goal. You don’t really seem to have much of an emotional stake either way.
Here’s one for you (thanks to PMS for the reference to this article, above):
Will it be left to conservatives like the estimable blogger “Allahpundit” (at hotair.com) to (sarcastically) state the obvious? “What’s the most efficient way to communicate with voters? Surely not at a massively promoted, televised, highly watched debate. Much better to hold a few town halls and meet and greets.”

Thank you. Very well said!
My pleasure and thank *you*!
Jeff…Trying to find the TRUTH is not Boring..Yes, it can be Tiring..Everyone approaches the Search differently..
Since Obama ansd His background have raised so many Red Flags, its best to VETT him Now..
There too many ties to Radicals, Corruption and Extremists to ignore..when you have to consider he will Control the Government like Bush has..
That was “REVULSION..”
I am Now Concerned about “REVOLUTION”
“I am Now Concerned about “REVOLUTION””
After 8 years of Bush, we need a revolution in this country. Before I am taken wildly out of context, I am not speaking of a violent revolution. I am speaking of a non-violent sociopolitical revolution. Who’s going to lead it? Hillary? McCain? I don’t think so.
We need revolutionary change, not a McCain continuation, and not incremental holding actions ala the Clinton years.
This country needs change that is tempered by stability…..
Revolution is not always a good thing….Ask the Romanovs….
Jeff, if you really think Barack Obama is going to lead ANY kind of revolution, “sociopolitical” or otherwise, or for that matter that he’s capable of any kind of leadership whatsoever, then you’re even more naive and/or dumber than I thought possible, even for an Oborg.
Arroint thee, troll.
I know the truth is boring to you.
I once asked a 747 pilot, “what was “exciting” about flying a 747.”
His response was, “If flying a plane is exciting, it usually means that some shit is about to hit the fan. I want it boring. At least until I land the sucker.”
Jeff; You ever listen to the “Soft Parade”?
non-violent socio political revolution.
Is that what is being televised now? I thought the real deal would not be…
Four debates between Obama and Hillary. The rest were called debates but they were forums where everybody got to say VERY little. But you already know that.
Incidentally ELEVEN MILLION PEOPLE tuned into the last debate. The highest viewership since the campaign started. I kind of find it hard to believe that people, other than Fearful Obama and his friends, are sick of debates.
I agree with you there Uppity….Besides the locals love it…
This has been one of the most territorily inclusive elections in recent history…Folks like it….
Uppity Money!.. “can’t touch this” …
There is nothing I enjoy more than the rel’s going at it over the wish bone.
(But then again, I am couped up in a Marriot debating on room service)
Uppity I bet cha if the heat dies down on this Wright controversy BO may change his mind.
He’ll feel like one of the “untouchables” if he survives all this.
But Obama claims that the voters of Florida “did not know him well”. Even though 17 of those debates were prior to the FL primary.
So which is it? There is nothing left to be learned about the candidates after 21 debates, or 17 debates is not nearly enough for the voters to know the candidates at all?
10 million people tuned in to the last debate. I guess 10 million people felt there were still things to be learned. Who are you to decide that they know enough?
Apparently he’s not happy to have ANY debates.
my heart flutters at the idea of a Lincoln Douglass debate. Do the rules disallow Hillary challenging McCain directly at this point?
i am trying to remember just how long the lincoln douglas debate went on. any help here? i read somewhere it was a longgggg debate.
I suspect that This is all a Game being Played by Obama, His Sponsors, and pastor Wright, and His Hate and Anger Message expressed in The “Black LIBERATION Techology”..that is basically Racist Hatred toward the ” White” People..He considers to be Oppressors and Terrorists..
Obama knows what Wright believes in His Rants against the United states Government and White People…Obama Understands The Black Liberation Movement and the NOI Thinking and who they Intend to Empower by Inflaming thier audiences..As we Saw of Jeremiah Wright, he is a Master at Manipulating Peoples Emotions, we Saw it in His Church, We Saw it At the NAACP Dinner how He played on emotions, We saw it at the Press Conference today..and He is Sneaky and a Liar ..with the Way He always turns things around..
This is not an “Attack on the Black Church”,.it is Really an Attack and Accusation Against White America, White Europeans, and The Government of the United States..Pastor Wright has made His Feelings very well know..Then Lies about it..
saying it was a “Sermon”…and that He really didn’t say what he Said and that wasn’t what he meant, its all Media Manipulation through “Sound Bites..”..
Reminds Me when Satan asked EVE in the Garden of Eden…”Did God really say that..??”
Rember, Obama is Not Strongly and Emotionally distancing Himself from Jeremiah Wright, His Church or Doctrine…Reverend Wright is accused all day of Damaging Obama…but then there are still hints of Love and fondness for Obama in all of Pastor Wright references to Obama..
Let us not Forget, The Theme of The NAACP Dinner that Jeremiah Wright Spoke at..and got Rousing applause was ..”CHANGE IS COMING..”
How about That..??
Pasor Wright kept yelling in His Closing Lines…”CHANGE IS COMING…CHANGE IS COMING..’
What is Obamas Big Theme, Posters and All..??
“CHANGE YOU CAN BELIEVE IN”
CHANGE….CHANGE…CHANGE..
There is a Pattern of Unity among all of them and Thier Message and Posturing is Radical and Revolutionary..Thats thier Big Inside Joke about “Bamboozling…”
It is an Accusatory Attack on White America..
and Sounds More Thretening than Healing..in My Opinion…
^
^
^
Why Don’t You tell Us What You ReallY Think
I don’t know what You consider a Long time, but when the Debate started Abe weighed 240 Pounds…and you have seen all the Pictures of Mr. Lincoln when the debate was Over..
So, What can “President” Obama do to “Change Things”..enough to Satisfy Pastor Wrights desire to Pay Back the Oppressive United states government.. … .Once Obama has Control of the Executive branch of Our Government..What Power would Obama really Have to “Change” things..like Pastor Wright Predicts…What possible Scenarios about that can Be Developed…What damage Could a “President Obama” do…even without the support of Congress…
Pastor Wright seems to really have alot of support from his NAACP and Press Club audiences so far..and its reaching every corner of America and Africa and all over the World…it sounds like Pastor Wright is sending Out “Code” Words and messages..to various Groups..
One has to wonder not only about the timing of 9/11..the Posturing of Iran, the Conflicts in Africa and S. America..but the Timing of the Obama Campaign, backed by the Likes of William Ayers and a Black Liberation Theology..that despises Anglos, a blaming European and American Governments and White People for being “Oppressors”..who Grind people under thier Boots..
Thats Pure Propoganda..Rradical aand Revolutionary..
and Its Raises all Kinds of RED FLAGS..
BeWare of RED FLAGS…
The kind of changes that Wright and his disciple Obama would bring to this country are the reason why I have said that NcCain may be the less bad of two bad choices. Don’t bother telling us that Obama has separated from Wright. As Wright himself has said, Obama said what was necessary as a politician.
Sorry - McCain, not NcCain.
I think Moses could Sell His cars…and Build an Ark …..Teak…he can always Fish and eat Oysters…
I Wrote a Poem about the Garden of Eden..When Satan was Slinking around…showing his VANITY..
thats why I said that about Forbidden Fruit..
Reminds Me when Satan asked EVE in the Garden of Eden…”Did God really say that..??”
What an angel you musta been to over hear this!
Down thru the ages we have seen the false prophets proclaim “Change is coming”.
What is Moses to do?
Maybe the men in white coats group?
oh, joy! this should send all those republicans and even independents RUNNING to Obama.
Didn’t wright say during Bill Moyers interview that he and Obama never discussed politics? Someone please correct me if I am wrong. Now he is saying that he told Obama last year if he is elected he is coming after him on american policy, huh? Wright also was on one of obama’s presidential candidate committees and wright consulted Obama before he made his announcement to run. What is going on here where are/is the reporting on this issue?
Wright has drawn the connection that will sink Obama either in the primary or general which is How much influence will wright have over obama’s policies and by extension all the other radicial characters influence as well?
Obama is in deep do do on this one.
You are right! Another conflicting statement from O-camp.
Where and when does it get any more clear , Mostest and JoeySky?
This meme is so “off world” only the Ori (BO supporters) want the address of the gate.
The contradictions are like trying to climbing a Scottish “grease pole” …and IF YOU BELIEVE!! it won’t matter because after 8 years of corrosive fear, Hope is being used as a political weapon. Reality is like the tide.
ot….Speaking of NC…..the PPP poll which seems to poll unusually high for Obama has a new one out today….12 points up for Obama in NC which bodes well for Clinton. This to me means she is very close to taking NC.
http://www.publicpolicypolling.com/pdf/PPP_Release_042808.pdf
If She can take both states..big is to small a word.
Thanks for that….I think she’ll take both IN. and NC. despite the conventional wisdom….
i am thinking folks who might give the primary a pass just might make it a point to vote due to the uproar the good rev has caused.
Wright is so into his own view of America that he doesn’t know he is hurting Obama. Check out the wild shouts of approval in Detroit last night, Wright is on a roll. He is, after all, “answerable only to God,”
he doesn’t know he is hurting Obama.
He knows ,is angry and does not care. He said today, if BO is the matchstick he proclaims himself to be , the Rev is planning on lighting his fuse.
But then there is this oddity! Another example (imo) of how the World has flipped!
Hillary Clinton a favorite among Louisiana donors
Pollsters say N.Y. senator’s regional ties helped bolster campaign fund
Ana Radelat-Gannett News Service
-snip-
Barack Obama swept the Louisiana Democratic primary, Republican John McCain may be a state favorite in November’s general election, but Hillary Rodham Clinton has raised more money than either of them.
Clinton, a New York Democratic senator, raised nearly $750,000 in Louisiana as of March 31, according to an analysis by the Center for Responsive Politics.
Hmmmm……That is interesting…..GOP is talkin up the new Indian Gov. as the possible GOP antidote to BABY-O….He’s very popular….
Is that what he after? An apology from the by gone government? Should we dig Stone Wall Jackson and General Lee off the grave and demanding their apology?
How absurd is that?
Ever heard of REPARATIONS….Ever since the Japanese won their San Fransisco law suit and the Jews get their art back….This has been a political theme that is popular…..I’m just sayin’…
and this
Poll: Clinton leads McCain
By LIZ SIDOTI, Associated Press Writer Mon Apr 28, 10:56 AM ET
WASHINGTON - Hillary Rodham Clinton has a better chance than Barack Obama of beating Republican John McCain, according to a new Associated Press-Ipsos poll that bolsters her argument that she is more electable in the fall than her rival for the Democratic nomination
I’m doing CARTWHEELS!!!
(in my minnnnnnnnd) lol
Not a big FOX fan, of course, but I’m so glad Sean Hannity will not shut up about this. Every night, night after night, he keeps saying, to every guest that tries this same crap of “Well, it’s Wright saying it, not Obama,” Sean replies, “HE WAS THERE FOR 20 YEARS!!!” He really gets his panties in a wad. And he’s right!
There are some others, of course, that point out this obvious fact, but Sean, bless his whacked-out Republican heart, just shakes this like a bulldog and won’t let go for &%^$!
[...] Comments Reverend Wrong on Politico: Wright to Obama: ‘Coming after you’ [+ SPAM / ADMIN UPDATE]Talktruth on Politico: Wright to Obama: ‘Coming after you’ [+ SPAM / ADMIN [...]
If you take into account how off PPP has been with their polling…..Clinton should be really up by 1 point in NC. As stated by another person from TalkLeft.
Let’s hope so.
I only recently found out how many AA Dems are here in NC. The only way BO won’t win NC is if half of them stay home.
Well they could split along generational lines…it seems the older most folks get the more moderate perhaps…..We can only hope….
sorry OT for my song, Im sure others here could improve or add to it!
Hillary wants to debate,
Barack says,for that he’ll wait
She wants to debate but had no luck,
I’ll even debate you from a truck!
I will debate you,so please show up!
I can not believe he doesn’t have the guts to debate her.
rise Hillary rise
Reverend Wright said if Obama wins the nomination, then the election, he would come after him because “He would be representing a government whose policies grind people under”? What is that all about? Is it a ploy to disassociate himself with Obama, for the benefit of Obama? Please add him to my exile list, along with Ayers and Dohrn.
Wright’s controversy will hunt Obama till he drop from the race. Why not drop right now and give a chance to Dems to unify. Hillary has earned her nomination, and will fight to win the white House, she is more electable. Obama thought media will do it for him, now they want him to close the deal and He can not!!
“Hillary has earned her nomination”
I fail to see how losing in the delegate race to Obama means she has “earned her nomination”.
“Hillary has earned her nomination”
I agree in the sentiment intended. But you knew that already what the OP intended.
Let’s debate NOW!!
Obama: oh….I can’t! I don’t know how to fight….
What is martial arts style called, when fighting from a fetal position?
Wonder if people saw Milbank at WaPo today about Wright? goes with the video on this blog.

Wow Larry, your inner Republican is coming out here, that and a lack of understanding of what preachers are like.
Of course Wright will come after Obama, that is understood. Wright is not a kool aide drinker, he is a reverend minister, and if, as President, Obama does not do right as Wright understands right, that Wright will come after Obama, that is a given. Sheesh. Ministers are like that, especially UCC ministers.
None of this has anything to do with what you think of Obama.
Well, your support of Obama says a lot about you, and your values.
In the same way, Obama’s almost fatherly relationship with Wright is indicative of Obama’s values.
Taken within the context of his larger social acquaintances, it raises some disturbing questions, and conclusions.
And this doesn’t even include the corruption angle, ie what about Rezko, Ayers, Farrakhan, Qaddafi and Hamas?.
I mean, what if there is even more?
Americans don’t want as President a man who seems to agree with Wright’s POV, a man who sees them as embittered, and stupid, a man who doesn’t renounce his spiritual “father’s” entreaty that “God Damn America.”
And that corruption thing isn’t too hot, either.
Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain.
Mr Johnson, start chanting “oommmmmm” . Naw, come to think of it how many Buddhist Republicans you know?
So Obama can’t handle this 1st problem…..He needs Clinton to deal with HIS mess????
Why not, he copies or mimics her ideas frequently then calls them his own. Like at the debates, he will agree with some policy idea Hillary thought of then say “I agree” and add some bullshit to make it sound like he actually thought of something original. His speeches are also unoriginal. I wish he would not be such a coward and debate Hillary again as he is entertaining to watch in a sad way. Refusing to debate and the pitiful excuses why he won’t does not change the fact he is showing his profound cowardice and people do indeed notice. Obama’s bloggers would be better off lobbying him to debate than giving excuses why he refuses to,
Obama ’so called’ delegate lead should come with an asterisk for “unvetted” delegate lead. Let’s run those primaries again and then the asterisk can be removed.
Thanks, Jeff, I promised that every time an Elitist posts, I’ll donate $1 to Hillary. So just keep a-postin’! Cha-ching!
I’M even embarrassed for Obama now, with Wright’s ranting on every channel. At first, I took an evil pleasure in it, but now, it’s just horrible.
Here’s another reference to physically hurting Hillary. I believe that it rivals the KO comment about beating her up. This one is from CNN’s Jack Cafferty today. He stuttered after saying it, maybe because he was excited. I don’t know.
CNN’s Jack Cafferty on April 28:
“She says that she will debate him any place at any time, adding that it could even be done on the back of a flat-bed truck. He would probably prefer to run over her with a flat-bed truck at this point.” (emphasis mine)
Please! Someone help me with this…Would this comment be appropriate, acceptable, tolerated, describing any other candidate? Would a media spokesperson use this violent imagery to describe any other rivalry? Or even, switch the image, to imply anyone other than Hillary getting physically hurt? This terrifies me!!!
