3. I don't think that a high enough percentage of whites are masochistic

enough to welcome the pummeling from Wright and the Obamas that we will be in for, if he ever gets in, which he won't.

If someone insults you endlessly, do you just take it, ask for more or walk away?

Your attempts to blur the lines of real racism is doing nobody any good. Of course you took your lead from your great leader, the uniter.

5. "...to be remembered simply as a good and decent man, who saw wrong and tried to right it..."
"...saw suffering and tried to heal it, saw war and tried to stop it."

Where would we be if everyone who saw them didn't try to right wrongs, heal suffering & stop wars - because IT's JUST TOO HARD! :cry:

Thankfully we have people who are braver then that.

7. Are you referring to Wright, the one St. Obama just disowned?
