For the life of me, I cannot comprehend how Glenn Beck, the others, so many FReepers have chimed in with this *exoneration, enlightenment, redemption* idea they claim from the speech. How can they NOT hear/read her using terms like "one of his own", that whole bit on "the Bushes" (still want to know why the plural) and this tired baloney of how the only reason anyone objects to 0bama is that he is a black president and hear a viewpoint that continues to put things in terms of black vs. white, regardless she claims otherwise? And yes, the audience reaction to her words is of major import, along with the fact that for some reason, she felt it necessary to tell of her supposed eye-opening to the NAACP.
Thank you for your post, CL.
Have you ever seen or heard a sermon in a “black” church?
Glenn Beck is not thinking straight lately.
I think he’s on the verge of another breakdown.
