Use other people to attack Obama's judgement because a number of people in his close circle have turned out to have problems. Pastor Wright, Michelle Obama and Samantha Power are just a few.<BR/><BR/> Yes, I have realized this for quite a while as Clinton's M.O. but it ain't working. Clinton will get the votes of some uneducated underclass whites that think Obama only got this far because of affirmative action "and I could be president if it wasn't for reverse racism", but educated, even middle class, whites aren't falling for that crap she pulls. I've even heard some pundits claim that some people that were pro-Hillary now switching to Obama,because of the nasty attacks. In the end, Hillary lost, the mainstream may make it seem like she has a chance, but the delegate count Obama got is increasing(leading Clinton by 131), Obama can still pick up a state here and there,(like Wyoming), and Billary can talk all they want about winning Texas and Ohio, but Billary only won those a close margin to Obama 50.89%-47.37, she really needed to win those by a large margin to stay in the race, she ain't gonna win. And I predict the stuff with Rev. Wright will blow over, like the stuff with Michele Obama, its just soundbites and Barrack Obama's image as a friendly Black man is infrared in every one that accusations of Black separatism won't stick. Besides, Rev. Wright no longer works at that church, which is very involved in community service and has a few white members. Samantha Powers is extreme, but she's just a staffer, not a cabinet member or advisor, and Obama would never apoint someone so extreme. Besides, considering how screwed up the Pakistani-Israeli situation has been for fifty years, and continues without <BR/>signs of abatting, its going to take something radical to get each side something they agree apon.<BR/><BR/><BR/>Keep in mind that the general election is going to be hundreds of times tougher than the Primary. And much of what is keeping Obama in the race, his vagueness, isn't going to fly in the general election.<BR/><BR/> BHB has shared some of his positions on things like globalized trade(against) health-care(compromised and weak,something I take issue with)illegal immigration(for building the virtual wall) among others, main, I'm getting sick and tired of this lie that Obama is "all style", when he does speak about the issues, its just that the mainstream ignores them, just like his Wyoming victory. Besides, considering McCain is Bush clone with mental problems, Americans may vote for Barack regardless of how "vague" he is. Damn, I'm even willing to bet that if Obama were to lose his voice, he would still beat McCain(the poll I used was from a few years ago, and McCain's prospects look grim).<BR/><BR/>Personally I've never heard of a non-muslim attending a Madrassa. Why would a non-muslim attend a Madrassa? The primary purpose of a madrassa is the education of young muslims in the Koran.<BR/><BR/>What was a Christian doing there?<BR/><BR/> Well the smear attack was based on the assumption that Obama is secretly a Muslim sleeper, or some other such nonsense.<BR/><BR/>I only watch Olbermann when nothing else is on, otherwise, he fulfills a niche: the leftist Rush Limbaugh, and everybody knows it wouldn't hurt for progressives to have their own attack dog to balance it out.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4486244714643027014.post-7562887244782603612008-03-14T18:37:00.000-07:002008-03-14T18:37:00.000-07:00We are an African people, and remain "true to our ...<I>We are an African people, and remain "true to our native land,"</I><BR/><BR/>This is really, really stupid shit. <BR/><BR/>Especially when you consider that most of Wright's ancestors have GOT to come from Northern Europe. <BR/><BR/>Fuck Reverend Wright.

McCain hasn't been a member of either parish for the last 20 years.<BR/><BR/>2. McCain wasn't married by either guy.<BR/><BR/>3. McCain's children weren't baptized by either man.<BR/><BR/>4. Parsley's worst comment was that Islam was a false religion that must be destroyed. Compare to what Wright's been saying that's pretty minor.<BR/><BR/>5. Hagee's worst comments are that Katrina was punishment for NOLA's sins and that the Koran has "a scriptural mandate to kill Christians and Jews.". Of which the first isn't that unusual for a preacher to say and the latter is actually true.<BR/><BR/>*shrug* good luck with that. But here's something else.

The principle problems though for any response is the length of time the Obamas were associated and the nature of Barack Obama's campaign, which promises unification.<BR/><BR/>At this point I'm unclear as to how much, if at all, Barack Obama has bought into Wright's black nationalism. It's clear that his wife Michelle has gone completely in that direction but no idea how it's affected Barack.<BR/><BR/>IMO it would be a disaster for blacks if Barack gets elected to President and then turns out to be a dedicated black nationalist in the vein of pastor Wright. As much as I condemn it white guilt has the potential to help enact change American culture and racial relations. If there's anything that would poison that would be a dedicated black nationalist elected under false pretenses.<BR/><BR/>2. So. What about the issue of Michelle Obama getting a $195,000 raise from her employer with a subsequent $1.5 million dollar earmark by her husband for that employer?<BR/><BR/>Keep in mind that Michelle Obama got her raise in 2005, the same year that Barack Obama got seated as a US Senator, and that the hospital got it's $1.5 million in 2006. Since the fiscal year for the federal government starts in around September of the preceding year this means that the budget for 2006 was setup in 2005.<BR/><BR/>The year that Barack was seated as a US Senator and could give earmarks and the year that Michelle Obama got her $195,000 raise.<BR/><BR/>I can assure you that it looks very bad, is unlikely to have a good explanation, is compounded by Michelle Obama's complaint about living within their means on a $500,000 combined income and most definitely will be used as a club to beat Barack like a baby seal.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4486244714643027014.post-78789173012818927282008-03-14T08:14:00.000-07:002008-03-14T08:14:00.000-07:00Don't sweat the Jeremiah Wright stuff.

In his day, and in that context, he was considered against the American way. <BR/><BR/>Another minister from the same church, David Eaton, was the target of a FBI investigation. Agents were planted in the church as members to disrupt the organization and eventually to have Eaton arrested and placed in a special political prison for his comments in the pulpit re then Prez Nixon's unwarranted searches to which Eaton replied if anyone came in his house without a warrant, he'd have something waiting for them on the other side. What would ABC think of that sermon? When the real members realized the FBI had intentionally planted people to disrupt the church, the church sued and was the first civilian organization to win a case against the FBI (that's what I was told). <BR/><BR/>I guess when you run for office, everything is under the magnifying glass. I've seen members of churches like Wright's who are the most upright citizens, are serving in Iraq, attending college, working jobs, and are very invested in the American dream (however that's interpreted). I have enjoyed sermons from charasmatic ministers from time to time, but wasn't compelled to join their church; and I've have gone to my own church after a night of clubbing (sunglasses on indoors) and forgetting everything the minister said the minute I step outsie the door. A lot of people say they tune out totally consumed with the thought "what's for dinner tonight." <BR/><BR/>For the "unchurched," as I think many ABC News people are, most people carry their own spirituality that may be informed by something the minister says but for the most part is not dictated by the minister. And church is a social as well as cultural construct. I can't really speak to all of it because there are so many levels to it. But I am sure, candidate Obama is not getting marching orders from his minister. But I guess he needs to put these people at ease. I just don't think any answer will be good enough unless you know what it is to go to church.

Some of the consequences are the obvious ones -- Ferraro out there race-baiting can be no accident. If she's truly a Hillary supporter, and they didn't want her stoking the racial flames, somebody would have said, "Psst -- ixnay on the aceray." She did exactly the opposite -- doing the whole media tour to say that Obama supporters were playing the race card and picking on her because she's white.<BR/><BR/>So I'm only stating the obvious in saying that the Clintons are all too happy to see the stoking of racial antagonism.<BR/><BR/>And I'm not breaking any new ground in saying that even if that antagonism doesn't earn Hillary the nomination this year, the Clintons are probably fine with the idea of McCain beating Obama this year, and her staking an "I told you so" claim in 2012.<BR/><BR/>But here's the thing. By now, we are all saying, and hearing other people say, "If she gets the nomination, I'm not voting for her." (Has anybody heard anybody within the past week say that they'll still vote for her if she gets the nomination?) I think it's pretty clear that a whole lot of folks have become sufficiently invested in this campaign that they will be highly pissed and finished with politics if Obama loses -- whether it's the nomination or the general election.<BR/><BR/>Don't the Clintons have to be aware of that?<BR/><BR/>And are they necessarily considering that a bad thing?<BR/><BR/>We know the watchwords that identify the Clinton pandering to the DLC direction of the party: Sistah Souljah, Ricky Ray Rector, Lani Guinier, etc. The DLC types figure that they've conceded plenty of states to the GOP just because of the Democratic Party's perceived pandering to black folks. And they've been trying to figure out a way to move away from us without losing our votes -- and move close enough to the GOP direction to pick of a few at their margins.<BR/><BR/>It hasn't worked. The Democrats had a vulnerable dunce in Dubya to run against twice. There wasn't much substantive in the Democrat platform to turn Reagan Democrats off -- welfare as we knew it was pretty much gone; affirmative action is on its deathbed, and the only thing a Democrat needs to say to black voters is that it isn't time to pull the plug on it yet. Black turnout was higher than average in 00 and 04, and it went 90% to the Democrats.<BR/><BR/>And the Democratic Party candidate still couldn't win either time.<BR/><BR/>Maybe I'm slow, but it is just now occurring to me that this race-baiting and all the other attempts to kneecap Obama isn't necessarily the Clintons going out kicking and screaming.<BR/><BR/>Maybe this is the way the DLC crowd sees the perceived millstone of the black vote being snatched from around their necks.<BR/><BR/>Because if this election turns us off completely, and we are marginalized once and for all in presidential elections, they are free to go all the way with making the big splashes that Ferraro is just sticking her toe into right now. They can fight for white votes in the previously solid-red states by dissing the black vote even harder than the Republicans do. Once we're safely at home, what's the risk -- especially when compared to the insufficient reward they've gotten from staying within the polite boundaries of benign neglect? Turn off the black vote, and they're free to chase the Latinos and the "blacks have it too easy" whites.<BR/><BR/>Somebody doing the forecasting for the Clintons has to have seen this as a distinct possibility, and they have to have accepted that in clearing Ferraro to put the pedal to the metal.<BR/><BR/>I haven't ideated our get-back yet. But if this is the way they're playing it, we need a good one.CNuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14152640304402402884noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4486244714643027014.post-34297914773354344072008-03-13T19:31:00.000-07:002008-03-13T19:31:00.000-07:00Cnulan, thank you for commenting here.

I happened to be listening to Michael Medved’s radio show this afternoon, which I never do, and it was Topic #1 with him.<BR/><BR/>Medved played clips of Rev. Wright’s sermons today, and described Wright as “an America-hater” whom Obama must reject.<BR/><BR/>And I just caught the tail end of it on TV, but on Glenn Beck’s CNN Headline News show tonight, Earl Ofari Hutchinson – a black activist in L.A. – was, I think, attacking Jeremiah Wright as well.Undercover Black Manhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08704721024820668555noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4486244714643027014.post-20999810072548235972008-03-13T19:28:00.000-07:002008-03-13T19:28:00.000-07:00Hmmm.@ cnulan"If that's the case, then John McCain...Hmmm.<BR/><BR/>@ cnulan<BR/><BR/><B>"If that's the case, then John McCain is truly phukked; McCain's Spiritual Guide...,"</B><BR/><BR/>*shrug* good luck with that.

I just disagree.<BR/><BR/>My point is that Obama gets much more out of being black than Edwards did from being white. And Edwards being put into the VP position in 2004 in Kerry/Edwards proves the point.<BR/><BR/>Edwards white southern background wasn't useful except in a few areas where Obama has gotten votes, money and support from all across the country. Something that Edwards was incapable of doing even though Edwards in 2004 ran a very similar campaign.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4486244714643027014.post-16139630733232898232008-03-13T19:09:00.000-07:002008-03-13T19:09:00.000-07:00Use other people to attack Obama's judgement becau...<I>Use other people to attack Obama's judgement because a number of people in his close circle have turned out to have problems.
