I was going to post the exact opposite. I'd never listened to one of his speeches in full but if this is what all the young moonbats call ‘ inspiring ‘ I just don't see it.
This speech is flat out boring and does not in the least explain Obama’s 20 year association with Reverend Wright.

I've listened/watched many of Obama's campaign speeches, which are "flowery", but lack any kind of substance whatsoever. What you heard today is (IMO) one of his better and more clever speeches. (Don't take my words the wrong way, I don't agree with him at all regarding the issues.)

Agreed. I came away from this speech thinking that he really didn't "disassociate himself" at all from the Rev. Wright. 20 years is a long time to be a member of this church with the same pastor (Wright). I can't believe Obama and/or his wife Michelle wasn't in the pews at least once during one of Rev. Wright's more offensives rants. And as Fox News has noted: Rev. Wright's "sermons" (rants) on DVD have been readily available for sale in the church gift shop for years.
