Obama ditches pastor

For the full story, read it here: Obama Story!
In short, Obama is saying he doesn't "share the views" of the man who "Officiated his wedding, baptized his two daughters, and has been his pastor for 20 years"

Excuse me? So is that his game? When a CRUCIAL piece of his life becomes inconvenient for him, he just distances himself from him and acts like he doesn't even know them? Is he planning on treating our nation that way? I AM not an Obama supporter, I am not a Clinton supporter, and i think McCain is nuts, but this raises some SERIOUS questions about Obama.

He's already shot his mouth off with at least one doozy, and it wound up losing him Pennsylvania, where I live. If people THINK about the ramifications of this, it is quite disturbing. If something, or someone, as the case is, does something to embarrass Obama, or harm his publicity, all of the sudden, he acts like he doesn't know them? So what, if Congress passes some law that other countries don't like or approve of, what is Obama going to do?
"I am afraid I do not share the same views as this body of men. I am trying to mend gaps, and they are tearing them down. I have known them for a long time, but the decisions they made were clearly not themselves."

You can't do that. If Obama treats our country the way he is treating his church, well, dang, we're screwed.
He claims that he knew his pastor for 20 years, and the man he "saw yesterday was not the same person [he] met 20 years ago." One problem. The footage was SEVERAL YEARS OLD! This is not new! Rev. Wright has been bashing "crackers" for YEARS now. He's even accused AIDS of being an engineered disease to "destroy people of color."

Excuse me? I am I the only one who is A) noticing inconsistencies in Obama's claims, and B) thinking the honorable Reverend is a little loony? AIDS kills ANYONE who gets it, black, white, red yellow, beige, purple, heliotrope, etc. AIDS is rather unbiased.

However, I AM willing to give Obama credit where credit is due. Unlike most liberals, he didn't sit there trying to justify himself and his pastor's actions, and he did accuse his pastor fairly accurately. To be honest, for Obama, it is a lose/lose situation. No matter what he would have done, he would have wound up with egg on his face. On the other hand, when considering a political career, you MUST remember that anything you have ever done, CAN and WILL be used against you.
Obama did not look ahead, and is now forced to try and dig himself out of a VERY deep and VERY muddy pit that he walked STRAIGHT into. Obama, old boy, you had best get started.



Hillary? Sheesh. Don't get me started. We could be here for days. That is for ANOTHER blog, ANOTHER time.
