Is this true? My God if it is, Hillary Clinton should be ran off her campaign IMMEDIATELY! She is sabbatoging Barack Obama (and possibly the Democratic Party's) chances of winning in November.

I was not a big advocate of the attacks on Reverend Wright, but like Senator Obama's admission today, I did see it as a valid political discussion. I was impressed the day after the original story broke when Obama crafted, or rather, delivered an inspirational speech to denounce and claim ignorance of Reverend Wrights comments in the now famous sermon at his church.
I was caught up in the questions, and followed in the belief that it would be impossible to divorce Senator Obama from Reverend Wright. I didn't believe that Obama could be 100% clear of the commentary as this preacher brought him to Christianity, married him, and baptised his children. To claim ignorance of his brand of preaching and the content therein seemed highly unlikely to me.
Further, I found myself as I tried to decide on a candidate to wonder about Obama's real intentions, and what we really know of his inner beliefs? I questioned how someone so great could be associated with some so low? How could the great politician be associated with a man who says from the pulpit: "God Damn America"? How could this great lawyer have kept company, no matter how briefly, with the likes of Bill Ayers? And why didn't we know about this forever ago? This seems to have been a non-story, but it got legs after the comments of Wright.

Why is Reverend Wright doing this media blitz? It's on every news outlet- "Breaking" right now on CNN. I just don't understand why this man is so intent on rehashing this issue right now. It is destroying Obama, and it seems as though Rev. Wright doesn't care. Am I wrong? I totally understand that he wants to defend himself- and I do agree that he was unfairly attacked in the media. I just think that he should wait until AFTER the election to do this. He can have his time in the media then, when it isn't so detrimental to the Democratic Party. He's completely off-script, and even Obama aides have said that he's not helping Obama with white voters. I just don't get it. Do you think he's mad at Obama for throwing him under the bus? If he continues to stay in the public eye, he will continue to be front page news. No other issue gets the media going like Reverend Wright. Please, please, someone ask him to stay quiet for just a couple of months!!!

You may ask why so many people have a problem with the "unity" candidate. It's very simple; Obama talks the talk but doesn't walk the walk. In my opinion, Obama is a hypocrite.
I hear Obama speak about how bad racism is and yet his mentor, the Reverend Wright is a racist.
Here's an example of Obama's double standards:
Pastor Wright was one of the first people Obama thanked after his election to the Senate; he consulted him before deciding to run for the presidency; and then he selected him as his spiritual adviser.Contrast this with Senator Obama's reaction when radio host Don Imus uttered his infamous slur of blacks last year. Then, Obama didn't hesitate to say Imus should be fired and asserted, "There is nobody on my staff who would still be working for me if they made any comment like that about anybody of any ethnic group."But when it came to Pastor Wright, he passed him off as "an old uncle who says things I don't always agree with."This kind of double standard raises serious questions.http://www.usnews.com/articles/opinion/m

Obama's "historic" speech was basically "damage control"
Much of Obama's speech covering 400 years of race relations in America was remarkable and thoughtful. It served to reassure many white voters that they had been right in not tuning him out the way they had tuned out other black candidates. It would have been more reassuring, though, if the speech had not come in the context of damage control, for it left the impression that Obama was broadening the subject to all race relations to deflect questions about his two-decade involvement with a radical anti-American.http://www.usnews.com/articles/opinion/m

Obama was never at the top of the list when it came to Democratic candidates. However, I was more than willing to support him if he became the Democratic nominee. Now I'm not sure that I could support him; Obama's relationship with Reverend Wright really bothers me. I can't see how Obama is suppose to have good judgement. Going to Rev. Wright's church for almost 20 years is not good judgement, IMO. I've been to many churches throughout my life and have NEVER heard a pastor preach like this.
