How can Obama get away with going to a church that is led by an fervently rascist preacher?

How is that so? If a White canditate went to a church where the preacher or priest or even rabbi was openly screaming his rascist views he or she would be "lynched" by the media for any sort of association. It is absolutely bonkers to think that Obama is allowed to slide on this issue! Why is there such a horrible double standard? Isn't rascism and biggetry wrong for everyone? Or is the Black community immune to such high standards?How can Obama get away with going to a church that is led by an fervently rascist preacher?
You should google Jeremiah Wrights new house. It is 10,000 square feet, and on a golf course. All that anti-american rhetoric and he is a millionaire. What kind of "preacher" makes millions of dollars? My preacher probably makes 40,000 a year. My point is that all of these people are crooked, Obama included.
PEPOLE SHOULD WAKE UP OBAMA IS BAD FOR ARE COUNTY. HIS GOING TO BE THE NEXT HITLER. I DON'T TRUST HIM AND HIS A LAIR.

biggetry LOLHow can Obama get away with going to a church that is led by an fervently rascist preacher?
Apparently he is not getting away with it.
How can Obama get away with lying to the American people? He is a smooth talker!
I think this is where the word "freedom" comes to play.
He gets away with it because he's black. Like you said, if a white person tried it they would be labeled racist for the rest of their life and slandered all over t.v.
wright's retired--and i don't think obama will be sitting in service every sunday--after all, he'll be living in D.C.



maybe he can attend bush's old church, huh?
You need to educate yourself about what Wright actually said. Listening to the spin by the right wing media is causing you to embarrass yourself.
The media won't touch it because he's black (and liberal)
by using the fact that he has a different skin colour,

It is fine for him to insult whites, if hillary called him black hed say it was racism its like that with all different coloured people.
Ummm I would say that alot of the preachers that the Republicans are going to church are slamming propaganda that is false and is destructive to helping the poor in America
He can get away with it because most people who THINK know that a person is not responsible for the words of their pastor, REGARDLESS of whether those words are in or out of context.
He won't get away with it, but anyone against him will be called a racist or a uncle tom
I think deep down, honest people know that most folks arent in church every Sunday so to pin him in the front pew at 11AM for 20 years is a strrrrrrrrretch. They also know that old people have different views...they are old..they experienced something else...times have changed. They also know that Obama never said any of those things himself nor has he exhibited anything REMOTELY similar..therefore the guilt by association isnt going to stick. If Obama had said the words HIMSELF....he'd be done.



He didnt.
Because he is Wright.
If you know anything,. he's not getting away with it, even though he did not like the preacher!!!!
Who are you to judge anyone. How informed are you? How many people go to a church where pedophiles are in charge. We haven't looked at all the tapes from all the churches of all that candidates, nor will we.



If you went to the church site and looked at the videos you would see a different story.



So good luck on your prejudice and take care of you.
People have just gave up on quality. Look at what else Obama has done (truth and proof): http://blogs.abcnews.com/theblotter/2007鈥?/a>
How can John McCain get away with saying that "I hate gooks" in reference to Vietnamese people?



Obama's pastor saying something is one thing, but McCain did utter those words.



Just run a google search on McCain, gooks.
because most voters can see beyond the limited sound bits that FOX and CNN have been looping for weeks



don't believe everything you hear on MURDOCKS FOX NEWS or TURNERS CNN



why? when cnn + fox are 24 hour non-stop news channels but they could not find the time to play LONGER VERSIONS rev wrights speaches?



the loops they played need to be heard with the words that lead up to the statements and the words after for a TRUE UNDERSTANDING of his words



obama is been attacked because he will be THE PEOPLES PRESIDENT and it scares the corporate powers
If you think he got away with it with the American people, just wait until the nomination. This racist will not be our president.
Uh, helloooooooooo! Don't the words "double standard" mean anything to you?
Racist or not. Hard to tell and Obama is whatever you want him to be. Something like the song "Margarietta Vill"



Again, the Democrats are going to put up a losing candidate for president as the Republicans havent even got at Obama as of yet.
He is free to worship where ever he wishes.....He cannot object that the public in general questions his judgment.
Since when did it become "wrong" to go to the closest church to your home of your respective denomination? I'm sure my pastor isn't perfect, but I'd rather not travel another 100~ miles to find a Lutheran church with a perfect pastor.
