[COLOR="Blue"]It is simply beyond me how someone can have the gall to run for the US Senate, let alone win that race, and not have left the congregation years earlier.

That's a good point. We're now at an almost insane period in American history where a presidential candidate need not be patriotic, and not even pro-America.

And, as insane as it is to have someone like Obama being a front-runner for president, it's even more insane that a considerable part of the country agrees with him.

I suppose that the Obama crowd is similar to Israeli leftist Tali Fahima, who went to console the family of the Muslim terrorist who mass-murdered yeshiva students in cold blood. It's unbelievable, but people like that exist in droves both in Israel and in America.

Why would Americans, particularly of the leftist persuasion, be bothered by Wright's statements, when they agree with them and say similar things daily? I just saw a poll released today that says among Democrats 50% support Obama and 42% support Clinton. Obviously Wright's comments don't bother them at all and many on leftwing blogs are singing this guy's praises.

Exactly right. Leftists who hate America are actually delighted with Obama and his mentor.

I'm pretty sure that if they ever did a poll among people who would describe themselves as being ashamed to be an American, the percentage of those who intend to vote for Obama would be much, much higher than 50%.

And Republicans who are villifying Obama like he was Satin and identifying him with the evil Muslims and the evil blacks are going to have a long term surprise when they get 0% of that demographic. That's really what they wanted anyway.

The surprise is that blacks are so ungrateful to the Republican party -- and Bush in particular -- under whose presidency they made bigger strides forward than under any other administration. (Blacks at the highest levels of government, like Powell and Rice, highest black home ownership in history, highest percentage of college enrollment, etc).

As for Muslims, they have a very different agenda than most Americans, although their alliance with anti-American haters like the Reverend Wright (and Obama's Nation of Islam advisers) is to be expected.

Let's be honest - most blacks and Muslims turned their backs on the Republican party a long time ago. If I were the Republican candidate, I wouldn't waste any time or effort on a lost cause. Instead, the best move for Republicans is to try to rally the citizens who might actually cast their vote for a Republican candidate.
