McCain Reverses Course on Obama's Pastor

Days after denouncing fellow Republicans for producing a television advertisement linking Senator Obama to polarizing comments made by his former pastor, Senator McCain is softening his opposition to political use of the issue and is even stoking the story by publicly condemning newly published inflammatory remarks from the Reverend Jeremiah Wright Jr.

Speaking at a news conference in Coral Gables, Fla., the presumptive Republican nominee for president linked his new view to Mr. Obama's statement in a television interview that it was "legitimate" for his opponents to seize on Rev. Wright's sermons.

"I was interested that this morning Senator Obama said it was a legitimate political issue," Mr. McCain said, repeating the phrase "legitimate political issue" three times during the brief session with reporters. "If he believes that, then it will probably be a political issue."

"I saw yesterday some additional comments that have been revealed by Pastor Wright, one of them comparing the United States Marine Corps with Roman legionnaires who were responsible for the death of our savior — I mean being involved in that," Mr. McCain said, referring to the death of Jesus Christ. "Then, of course, saying that Al Qaeda and the American flag were the same flags. ... I can understand why people are upset about this."

Mr. McCain said he did not believe that Mr. Obama shares Rev. Wright's views, but the Arizona senator's response to a question about the issue moved seamlessly into a critique of Mr. Obama's statement about "bitter" small-town Pennsylvanians clinging to their faith. "Again, Senator Obama: out of touch," he said.

Mr. Obama's presidential campaign reacted by accusing Mr. McCain of claiming to be above the fray even as he exploits questions about Mr. Obama's ties to the clergyman.

Wright is a bigoted, anti-American, hate-filled, race baiting marxist running around in a preachers robe spouting an absolute perverted ideology/theology that turns the Truth of God into a lie.

His interpreted version of Jesus Christ as a oppressed black man fighting against whitey who is as much interested in political revolution as he is in spiritual salvation is actually much closer to what the Islamics teach of Christ than what Christianity teaches of Christ.

And this is the well that Obama has been drinking deeply of for over 20 years.

THE AUDACITY OF TRUTH - BLACK LIBERATION THEOLOGY AND OBAMA'S CHURCH

"Not God Bless America, no, no, no, God Damn America!" "911 is America's chickens coming home to roost"

"AIDS was created by the US for black geneocide," "If God is not for us & against whites, then he is a murderer, and we'd best kill him."

"Black theology refuses to accept a God who is not identified totally with the goals of the black community. If God is not for us and against white people, then he is a murderer, and we had better kill him. The task of black theology is to kill Gods who do not belong to the black community ... Black theology will accept only the love of God which participates in the destruction of the white enemy. What we need is the divine love as expressed in Black Power, which is the power of black people to destroy their oppressors here and now by any means at their disposal. Unless God is participating in this holy activity, we must reject his love."

THE AUDACITY OF TRUTH - OBAMA'S LACK OF PATRIOTISM TOWARD THE FLAG

THE AUDACITY OF TRUTH - OBAMA'S IDEOLOGY ON DISPLAY

Che Guevara was a radical, murderous Marxist revolutionary in Argentina, Cuba, and Bolivia. He became Fidel Castro's executioner.
Why, then, is his picture proudly diplayed at Obama election Headquarters? What change does Obama intend. What is his hope?

Expect that McCain, once president, will wait until AFTER a missile successful attack to assure it meant a war had started.

That'll work.

One has to have the patience to know that a foe means business before bloodying our good name, right? /sarcasm

The best case scenario is to wait until after the fact and talk to them and show some compassion toward their frustration that drove them to use such murderous actions. (big time sarcasm)
