Sorry about that Sandy. I just took another Freepers word for it on 8-16 without checking out what other Freepers said about his comment. I just now checked and see he was totally wrong. Here is the thread and his posting is #8 Thread

Note to self. Do not pass on statements without checking them out first. :-(

Middle class conservative blacks are a very small minority, unfortunately.

Since you can’t provide other evidence, I’ll assume the Pew guys are more or less accurate.

Thomas is one of the least popular blacks in America, among his own people. Attacking him is a political positive for Obama with black people, not a negative.

No problem. There’s a contingent of Warren haters on this board who say the strangest things!

He was my pastor for several years, so I have a slightly different perspective.

Hildy, Obama is already backtracking from his America is selfish statement.

Yesterday I heard part of his live appearance and he was praising how generous the American people were.

You would think that by now Team Obama would have come up with an answer to the abortion question that would have been honest AND made him look diplomatic. I mean, this was a Church forum...what did they think he was going to be asked? Public opinion would have been better if he just said what he thought, decisively and directly, regardless of how it went against the audience. Everyone there knew his stand on abotion. Doesn’t make sense.
