The Rev. Wright

Submitted by Bill St. Clair on Sat, 2008-05-03 06:03.

Charley Reese at LewRockwell.com - Mr. Reese respects Reverend Jeremiah Wright. From what little I've read of his opinions, I do too. I certainly don't agree with everything he says, but he has the temerity to say unpopular things and stick to his guns about his opnions. I respect that a lot. [lew]

Quote:
Now, in the first place, this was the old guilt-by-association gimmick – Sen. Obama, you either have to denounce this man or we will assume you agree with and condone all of his views. Bull. The Rev. Wright is not part of the Obama campaign, doesn't write his speeches and doesn't speak for him. Obama should have said: "Look, we have no connection except a personal one. I've told you I don't agree with all of his views, but I cherish his friendship, and if you don't like that, you can go to hell. And if you have any questions about him or his views, ask him, not me." Then he should have stuck to his campaign message and ignored any questions about the Rev. Wright.
