Well, let's just say that the consequences of that combination would just about ALWAYS be bad.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6152307338772205194.post-92085280023154997962008-10-08T19:44:00.000-04:002008-10-08T19:44:00.000-04:00Lisa - Obama did defend Rev.

Wright. However, Rev. Wright then did some things that are not defendable in a weekend spree of personal indulgence at Detroit NAACP dinner, DC press club speech and media interview. I think that Rev. Wright put himself in the line of fire and Obama needed to cauterize that relationship if he was to ever hope to beat Hillary in the primaries...<BR/><BR/><B>Randall</B> - McCain does scare me...<BR/><BR/><B>Viqi French</B> - It is always good to know that we're sharing new information with our blog readers!<BR/><BR/><B>Fitness Diva</B> - After awhile you can't ignore what is placed in front of your face.

People often do not respect those who do not exhibit mental and emotional discipline.<BR/><BR/>Obama is graceful but I am not certain that he exhibits emotional discipline...he is a people-pleasser and a kowtower and THAT DOES NOT mean he is any more noble than a loose cannon like John McCain.<BR/><BR/>I keep thinking about Obama DENOUNCING a man who was his friend and confidante for 20 years (Dr. Wright) rather than defending the theology of his own church.<BR/><BR/>If he won't defend a person who was in his life for TWENTY years then I doubt he will stand up and defend black men in general.<BR/><BR/>Peace, blessings and DUNAMIS!<BR/>LisaLISA VAZQUEZhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13583559303233985031noreply@blogger.com
