Well I would this these comments by Obama along with how he views our society, really undermines this image he has tried to craft of himself. He seems to be to me, just another Wright, except more careful and only speaks his true feelings around certain people.

That's YOUR brainwashing.

It's a scientific fact. AM radio is dominated by the right, Sunday talk shows have an overwhelming ratio of right wing guests/hosts compared to left wing, and newspapers feature more right wing columnists.

The "liberal media" is your scam excuse for voters not latching on to your party's racist, bigoted, rich worshiping, platform.
You're funny. I'm not sure if you're trying to be or not.
Talk about being "brainwashed".... deny the surveys/stats (which show much of the media leans liberal.... Sunday shows and radio are not the main stream media) and then go on with a hateful, exaggerated sweeping generalization....

How is that a "Democrat belief system"? That is to ask, how is that individual's remark indicative of the Democratic party?

What a sad thing to have someone like that as our President
You honestly believe that there is a scandalous tape like that just sitting around that was somehow overlooked for the past 5 years?

The speech is from 2007 and its been posted before. It was posted on conservative blogs, and look what wonders it did on the outcome of the 2008 election!

As far as Im concerned, if the right decides to start beating the Rev Wright drum...then the Obama campaign has every right to beat the "oh btw Mitt Romney is a Mormon look at some oddities about his faith" drum.

Um news flash pal, this was in 2007. Wait to you see what he thinks of our society today. He thinks we are a racist white society that profits off screwing over black people.

Ok. Show me where it is then. Ive yet to see this or any 40 minute video of Obama talking to Wright and the crowd Wright preaches to, about race and how society is racist. If its out there now, show me.

You can blame the media for this not being found earlier.

And it looks like yes, PART of this video was out there, along with PART of a transcript. Guess what was scrubbed from the video and the transcript?

That's it! I am done reading or responding to your hateful, anti-white, bigotry and lies, smears and exaggerations about the majority on the right! And you have the nerve to call the right, racists? Look in the mirror! You should be ashamed of yourself as an American!

Quite simple, it is the Democrats that have always wanted to hold black people down. It is democrats that didnt used to think black people equaled one white person. It is Democrats today who believe that welfare reform is racist because they believe black people need welfare to survive. It is Democrats who believe black people need Affirmative Action because they believe we can not make it without their help.
