It seems that Obama has finally spoken out against Rev. Wright.
Here is the Video:
Okay, I’ve watched the video and here is my official, right of center, political opinion about it.
First off, I do commend Senator Obama for coming out with the stern statement that he did, I think it shows that he doesn’t support this sort of mentality possessed by his Pastor.
However, personally, I could never look at Obama, the same way that I did before all this stuff came out about Rev. Wright. I could never trust him. I will not vote for him, should he get the party’s nomination. I will vote for a third party candidate, if there is one. If a libertarian is on the Michigan Ballot or a Constitutional Party candidate is on the ballot in Michigan, I will vote for that person, as I do not want the specter of knowing that I voted for a person that embraces Liberation Theology on my conscious.
I realize that he isn’t Rev. Wright, but I also know that he spent many years in that Church, and if he says that he didn’t hear that sort of stuff, he is either lying or did not pay attention.
I also believe that it speaks to the common sense of Senator Obama, he should have had the foresight to vet the sermons that his Pastor had made, even after he had left Chicago. He should have known, that even some of the more mild things that Rev. Wright has said would have been perceived as incinerary and radical by those who have not been exposed to the black culture and the black Church. His inability to do this, shows a lack of good common sense on his part. I do not wish this sort of a person to be my President.
I wish Senator Obama the best of luck in the remainder of this Primary, but as of this moment, I will no longer be someone who supports this man or his candidacy for President of the United States of America.
This is the last thing that I will ever publish on this Blog about this subject regarding Obama and his Pastor.
