Since we're bringing up people's decisions and actions from 20 years ago, Clinton has a lot of nerve talking about who wouldn't be his pastor because apparently he hasn't been shepherded very well.

And since we are still talking about his church, I found a couple of interesting articles here:

Chicago Reader Blogs: Chicagoland

Chicago Reader Blogs: Clout City


Hmm...

Openly gay choir director?

Recipient of millions of dollars in grants from both Democratic and Republican administrations at the federal, state, and city levels for social services?

Sounds like the bastion of intolerance and hatred to me

Interesting that her husband chose him for council after the Lewinsky affair. Should Hillary denounce and reject Bill Clinton now? He could choose, after all...

I'm glad some one speaks out about the difference with choosing a church and being born into a family. I'm not voting for any Dem. and since I'm a foreigner not allowed to vote in this country, but hope one day I can vote in this wonderful country and for sure vote for a Rep.

Interesting that he did not. Wright was invited to a breakfast along with how many other pastors and was this not a yearly event.

Yep, in a time of personal crisis, Bill Clinton chose Rev Wright.

You got all that from a photo?

Or is it in your head or is there proof anywhere that he was going to Wright for help.

I'm not a big fan of smiley, eye-rolling, confused faces to show my intent. But I'm being tongue-in-cheek here, poking fun at a number of Clinton supporters on here who latch onto the extremes of any possible interpretation and run wild with them absent any logic or critical thinking applied.

Well Hillary that's not quite true. You can not choose your parents, siblings, or grandparents. But, you can choose your spouse. You choose to remain married to a man that repeatedly cheated on you. Gennifer Flowers, Monica Lewinsky, Elizabeth Ward Gracen, Sally Perdue, Dolly Kyle Browning, and who knows how many other women have had affairs with your husband and you have stood by him. The last time I checked divorce is still legal in America.
