Obama's Pastor - A Review

The Times: Has an in depth look at the comments of Obama's Pastor. Obama has been lucky with the press up to this point, one gets the feeling the press is out to get him, they think Hillary Clinton can win and she would be a better President.

General Election - Ohio

Rasmussen: Interesting poll from Ohio, shows that Senator John McCain leading by six points in a match up against Clinton and Obama. The poll shows the following results:

McCain 46% - Clinton 40%

McCain 46% - Obama 40%

If McCain can keep Florida and Ohio it wont go well for the Democrats on Election night 2008.

Obama's Pastor and the N word

The Pastor uses a racial term that is racist. Reader WARNING about the content of this clip. This is why Senator Obama has been on the networks to reject his pastor opinions.

Obama and his Pastor

RCP: When your in a earthquake better find some solid ground, thus Senator Obama has stated the following on his relationship with his pastor, " Let me say at the outset that I vehemently disagree and strongly condemn the statements that have been the subject of this controversy....In sum, I reject outright the statements by Rev. Wright that are at issue..... ( Wright ) has never been my political advisor; he's been my pastor. " This should get Obama Campaign through the weekend, depends if any more Wright TV Clips come to light. If they do and Obama is seen to have been in attendance he is in trouble, he could lose the nomination. Either way it works for the Clinton Camp, Obama in the future will be seen as just another politician.

Elite Meida and the Pastor

The Politico: A very good article that looks at how the Media has treated the relationship between Obama and his pastor. Bit of worry it takes a talk show host through jokes to get the media to pay attention. So thank god for the late night talk show hosts and Bill O’Reilly of Fox News. Mr O, was right about this issue he stated that the media would now have to deal with the story, that's why Fox News is the best in the business.

NYT and the Pastor

New York Times: A odd article by the NYT, one gets the impression that the paper supports Obama's Pastor in his views, e,g America is racist, 9/11 was the fault of the USA. The article seems to go out of its way to justify his opinions, the article states the following on the pastor " ...beloved figure in African-American Christian circles and a frequent guest in pulpits around the country....he has built a 6,000-member congregation through his blunt, charismatic preaching, which melds detailed scriptural analysis, black power, Afrocentrism and an emphasis on social justice;......which interprets the Bible as a guide to combating oppression of African-Americans. " The Liberal New York Times is torn, on the one hand its carries by its own need white guilt, no asked it to be our soul. On the other hand it states that Obama has rejected his pastors views and then the Times has the gaul to quote the Pastor in attacking the Clintons. Poor Elite Media!!

Money

New York Times: A very interesting article by the Times, donors to the Democratic Party want delegates from Florida at the National Convention or else they wont give the DNC any money. Money is the mothers milk of politics. Who thought putting Howard Dean in charge of the DNC was a good idea needs to quit politics.

Obama's Pastor

The Obama Campaign has been sidelined due to the stupid comments of the Pastor of Senator Obama, the comments that are being shown on the TV and net do not help the campaign. The theme of the comments is Anti American and it can be argued a negative view of whites. The Obama Camp has tried not to make race a issue in this election, more than can be said about the Clinton Camp. Lets hope this is a weekend story only. LBJ had a good view, if you have a one eyed relative and that is in the centre don't keep him or her in the parlour.
