I have to wonder why there was a thread a couple of days ago that talked about the different religious leaders,their controversal comments and links to other presidental candidates just died and this one keeps going?

Could it be because there were grains of truth in that thread and some people who frequent the forum don't want to own up to it?

I also keep hearing how racism is in the past but certain members of the forum keep rehashing the statements that Rev. Wright made.

Why the double standard? Or is that question too difficult to answer and will just be buried by more of Rev. Wrights quotes?

Double standard indeed!

rev Wright's statements are racist, but some who are Obama supporters/agree with the statements refuse to acknowledge that they are indeed racist.

Yours are the only statements filled with xenophia and hatred. You are the one with the issues surrounding the truth about America atrocities against people of color globally being spoken aloud. Rev. Wright is merely the scape goat for delusional racists in denial who simply wish to fast forward and omit reality.
Pardon me, but you are the one who throws around the racism card when some don't agree with you.

You are the one who refuses to admit that most of the atrocities committed against people of color are done by their own.

Rev. Wright is the delusional racist living in the past, perpetuating the "victim/racism" card.

I guess it is hard medicine to swallow that so many people actually do believe that Obama is a liar. We are the general public and we do believe that he is a liar and this poll is as representative as any other poll would be.

ROFL, since when did Obama bashers become the general public? 95% of the posters who voted no in the poll have a history of bashing Obama.

Hmmm so Rev. Wright statements are the only ones that are racist when you look at the thread I mentioned? Did you even bother to look in the thread?

Are some Hillary supporters that keep bringing up the race issue racist as well? Maybe on this board, but I'm going to say that the general public (which this board does not represent) are not.

He is one of two things, a liar ( which we all know he lied ) or he is plan and simple a racist pig like his racist pig pastor and doesn't understand the hate the idiot pastor is teaching and pushing the younger generations to hate like they do.

So, yes he lied to us once and the lord knows how many more times he has and will lie to us.

Again, it comes down to his lack of judgement, he is not qualified to be a President or a Senator for that matter. He accomplished "zero" as a Senator and yet people think he can run a country when he cannot control his own mentors mouth of hate.

Give us all a break, he is a liar racist pig just like his mentor pastor.

Oprah Winfrey went to that same church and left it because of this hate filled trash, but then again she is above and beyond Obama in many ways.

We do not need a liar or a divider like Obama in the White House.

Sour grapes or sore loser? Your just upset because the poll supports the view that Obama is a liar. I am just an average voter and not a fanatic by any means. I could have just as easily voted for Obama or McCain depending on an assorted number of things. I decided Hillary was the best candidate. Aren't you one of the more outspoken Hillary bashers? Get a grip... this is REALLY how most of us feel about your wonderful candidate.

And 100% of the Obama followers cannot stand for the truth to come out.

I do not like Hillary either but you Obama fans seem to think everyone who dislikes Obama is a Hillary fan, it's 100% not true!

I do not like either of them and Obama is a liar period. Listen to the tapes again.

No, i have never bashed hillary, besides polls on here are worthless. You should have seen the number of polls ron paul won on here during the republican primaries.
