Well...I am concerned anyway, though.

Jody — 3/18/2008 11:23:11 PM (archived)

Granted we saw only snippets but to me, that has been enough to tell me that this is who Wright is. A preacher going off at a sermon with that much volcanic fervor speaks volumes about his belief system in general.

TB is correct...the right would NEVER be able to get away with this. I see double standards...and it bothers me ALOT.

We have been criticizing the right with all the religious implications....is this any different?

I want to believe in Obama....but I will not put blinders on.
