Wright Speaks….

Yes, He did speak.

Yes, I did listen to the WHOLE thing.

Yes, he did have some valid points.

Yes, there are people who do not like what he said, which is no surprise to me.

The only people who will just reject outright everything that he says, are racist bigots, who are haters. To that I say, they can, frankly, go to hell. They know who they are. 

The reaction seems to be mixed, so far. Which is no surprise.

As someone who grew up in Southwest Detroit and grew up around Whites, Mexicans, and yes, Black people…. I can see where Wright is coming from.

Do I think his comments, that were made right after September 11, 2001, were okay???  No. I think that they were misguided, hateful and just plain wrong.

But the one’s made last night, were justified, and made a good deal of sense. At least to me, this is because I came from a multi-cultural background. Most people that will listen to this and take critical stance, are the pasty white people, who have never hung around anyone other than their own kind, and quite frankly, belong on the forums over at Stormfront.org.

That is all….

Update: I also listened to the second speech. I will make this absolutely clear. This man is a believer in "Black Liberation Theology", which is a derivative of "Liberation Theology". This doctrine is, in fact, a Marxist Theology. So, as far as I am concerned, Rev. Jeremiah Wright is nothing more, than a black communist. If Barack Obama agrees with ANY aspect of what this man says, Religious or Political, he is, in fact, a Marxist, and I will NOT be voting for him, should he secure the nomination of the Democrat Party. I do not want to be responsible for the election of a closet communist in our White House.

Editorial: I just lost all respect for Hillary Clinton

Undoubtedly, you already know what it is that I am referring. The statement by Hillary Clinton that she would obliterate Iran, that country attempted an attack on Israel with nuclear weapons.

Here is the snippet of the interview, that is coming up on Good Morning America.:

She did, however attempt to back off the statement on MSNBC:

 

My friends, this is nothing more than a page out the George W. Bush playbook.  Was it not Hillary Clinton, when confronted by some facts about her policies, fly into a screeching premenstrual rage, about Barack Obama’s tactics being right out of the playbook of Karl Rove?  Now, with the table’s turned and Hillary being under the gun, Hillary herself does the same exact thing, only notches up the rhetoric more.  Yet, she gets a free pass, because she is trailing, because she is the underdog.  Not from this writer she does not.

This Nation, for the last 6 years, has been in quagmire called Iraq.  We were lead into this war, based upon intelligence that, in fact, was found to be false.  Yet, this administration has continued to move the goal posts as to the reason we had to remain in Iraq.  Yet our President in his stubbornness and blind allegiance to a totally flawed and poisonous political ideology has almost strained our Military to the point of almost breaking the back of those of whom we entrust our safety, our lives, our well being.

Now we have some so-called underdog Presidential candidate who is attempting to compare herself to Franklin D. Roosevelt, or John F. Kennedy, both paramount leaders in the annals of the history of America, all so she can attempt to appeal to those who think striking Iran might just be a good idea.

The tough reality is, that involving this country in another military escalation of this sort would do nothing more than further strain and possibly destroy what military we have left.  This is outside of the scope of instituting a military draft.  Not to mention, any sort of Military action, outside of the approval of the United Nations would result in further destabilization of that very region.  Not to mention the United States relations with our allies in the region.

I am not sure exactly what Hillary Clinton is attempting to do, but it could spell the very end of her bid for the office of President of United States.

Latest Gallop Poll – Clinton 46% Obama 45%

Quote:

Gallup Poll Daily tracking shows that Hillary Clinton now receives 46% of the support of Democrats nationally, compared to 45% for Barack Obama, marking the first time Obama has not led in Gallup’s daily tracking since March 18-20.

These results are based on interviewing conducted April 16-18, including two days of interviewing after the contentious Wednesday night debate in Philadelphia and the media focus that followed. Support for Hillary Clinton has been significantly higher in both of these post-debate nights of interviewing than in recent weeks. The two Democratic candidates are now engaged in intensive campaigning leading up to Tuesday’s Pennsylvania primary and are under a continual and hot media spotlight, increasing the chances for change in the views of Democrats in the days ahead.

Not that this really matters, because Obama’s ahead in the delegates and unless there’s a major shift with those people, I doubt Hillary will be able to pass Obama. It’s just interesting to see the sudden change in the percentage of people who supported Obama and now don’t.

Here’s how Obama does when match up with McCain:
