As I said, if the issue was just Wright, I wouldn't sweat it. The problem is the pattern - it seems like all of Obama's associates are socialist and/or anti-American.<BR/>2. Obama didn't leave Wright's church until basically forced out of it by his advisors during the campaign. Palin left Kalnins' church more than 5 years ago of her own accord.<BR/>3. Kalnins doesn't seem like a socialist, unlike Wright and Black Liberation "Theology."<BR/>4. You seem to be forgetting that the race is between Obama and McCain. I'm perfectly comfortable with McCain's religious views.Brethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15063508651955739056noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5806884.post-7634400262403543542008-10-13T17:09:00.000-07:002008-10-13T17:09:00.000-07:00Bret, why would you worry about Obama's pastor but...Bret, why would you worry about Obama's pastor but not Palin's.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5806884.post-9673237576519072372008-10-13T08:16:00.000-07:002008-10-13T08:16:00.000-07:00More interesting in information in this article by...More interesting in information in <A HREF="http://www.pickensdemocrats.org/info/TheAgitator_070319.htm" REL="nofollow">this</A> article by Ryan Lizza.<BR/><BR/>My only hope is that the polls are skewed both because the questions are deliberately misleading and the pollees are not being candid when answering them. Perhaps it's a vain hope because lately we've had a dozens of working people in and out (we're doing large scale remodeling and landscaping) and my husband has been chatting them up about the election.<BR/><BR/>Everyone of them is convinced Republicans are for the rich and Democrats for the little guy like them. Only one actually declared for Obama and my hope is that the others just don't bother to vote.erphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09826044412670324694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5806884.post-91308385034781749922008-10-13T06:52:00.000-07:002008-10-13T06:52:00.000-07:00Fact checking just makes it look worse for Obama. ...Fact checking just makes it look worse for Obama. The NY Times article on Obama and Ayers is a modified limited hangout effort to conceal a much deeper involvment. For instance, the "coffee" hosted by the Ayers wasn't just a coffee, but the official campaign kick off for Obama. Then there's the whole Annenberg Challenge.<BR/><BR/>Here's the question to ask — of the close friends and political mentors of Obama, which ones are <B>not</B> crooks, terrorists, racist, or anti-American?<BR/><BR/>P.S. Obama's autobiography claims he specifically sought ought Marxists and radicals as friends at college and afterwards. It is truly stunning that someone with a background like that has gotten to where he is.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
