He might feel just fine in those expensive Italian loafers!

Are you accusing the Huffington Post people of being conservatives? Did you fail to see that I found that thing on today's Huffington Post. If you want to accuse them of that kind of thinking it is ok with me but I don't think they would take that very kindly.

I would guess that you have just accused me of being a racist. If so, maybe you need to watch that one again and listen to his words. I heard all kinds of racist sounding things there, but they were also aimed at me because I am not black.

Did I imply or tell you that your a racist? Checking my previous post in this thread says no... If the shoe fits than wear it but I myself did not call you a racist. Maybe you think yourself as a racist, do you, I dunno?

I didn't say anything about where you found it, I said you have nothing new about Obama to complain about.

You know what you meant by that statement about being in his shoes, unless you were wanting me to be a ranting raving minister which I can't do especially in his shoes.

Why I thought that posting that rest of the story about the context of the GD America rant was doing you and yours a favor. Hmm, I guess I was wrong.

Do you consider Obama not seeing anything at all racist in that rant by the Reverend as truth from him? I guess when The Man does anything it is right, huh?

If you saw America through his eyes (Rev Wrights) you might have a different take on how you envision America. That's basically what he is conveying to his congregation. Get over it already... It it's not the stupid rant on the Teleprompter it's a rant on this. Don't know how Rev Wright is even relevant today? Is that all you got, must have to reach the bottom of the barrel. Why not bring up Bill Ayres?

Who's me and mine? Do you come here for mindless rant, or to discuss real issues.

First you want me to wall in Wright's shoes and now you are asking me to see the world with his eyes. I don't even know where his palace is located so I guess I can't do those things.

Do you actually look at this rant and think that he is trying to smooth race relations? I fail to see that but then I am not using your eyes either.

I wonder why that thing was put on the first page of Huffington Post today. Surely some writer out there thought we all needed to see what he said. I guess you left leaners just can't go along with the writers at Huffington. I can't believe that as often as I see lefties reference them.
