"I can no more disown him (Jeremiah Wright) than I can disown my white grandmother."

What a cynic you are. :-) I agree with you 100%. Wright is done preachin’ hate, lives in his multi-million dollar house in an upscale neighborhood. Obambi is trying to look tough by condemning wright, he gets to give “great” speeches. It works out for them both. Libs won’t care and are counting on America to forget, and will claim hatred & racism if it’s brought up after he gets the nod.

Hey Charles, he has already dissed his white grandmother. You need to get ahold of Hugh Hewitt as he has the tapes.
