We serious types have to learn to lighten up – it helps people feel comfortable with us, and listen to what we have to say.

Obama comes off like a dork in his defense of Wright. And why are the libs rushing to the defense of racism and anti-Semitism?

BTW regarding the WeightWathers ad. I’ve lost 47 pounds using them online. WeightWatchers ROCKS!

Ok, you need a better title like Amanda. What’s with the suit? How about a special Capt’s Hat? Kinda like Tom Landry. I liked the backdrop!

PS: Could you get me Amanda’s phone number?

When you add the pandering white “say anything to get elected” liberals like Hillary into the mix, they just reinforce the myth that all the problems blacks have worldwide can be traced back to whitie.

Stark, frank, and honest conversation on race is impossible, even for honest black people with a different view.

Pseudo victims don’t have it in them to blame their own performance even though deep down they know who’s to blame. A classic example was New Orleans and Hurricane Katrina.

The Super Dome crowd put that city government in to maintain the vote farming payola. But, when the going got tough, the local government was standing around like a bunch of cows and utterly useless. But, the victim mentality had them trained to blame a whitie. Look at Kanye West’s remarks.

Well, I mean really. By far the most masculine spokespersons in the DNC are their women, some of whom I find very easy to … admire.

But is this really that one-sided? I mean KP and … Jane Fleming? That’s it?

If McCain had been sitting in Falwell’s pew for 20 years, had a close and personal relationship with him, considered him part of his family and designated him as a spiritual and political advisor, then the argument holds.

And this isn’t even true either. Falwell apologized for the comment immediately after he said it about 9/11. That’s the comment they always equate to Falwell about America bringing 9/11 on itself. . . Falwell APOLOGIZED IMMEDIATELY and included the caveat that NO MAN KNOWS GOD’S WILL. He specifically said that the DAY after. Falwell was not a hateful person. He was a Baptist preacher.

Now, can you see Reverend Wright apologizing for ANY of his statements?

And the Christian thing is appropriate in terms of comparing Wright with the KKK as well. The KKK is technically the ‘Christian Knights of the Ku Klux Klan’. Just because you call yourself something doesn’t mean that you are representative.

Answer: In the absence of any substantitive legislation, sponsorship or record we are forced to evaluate the man purely on his background and associations. It’s intellectually dishonest to compare McCain/Falwell to Obama/Wright, but it’s the tactic the left is trying to distract the media and it will probably work for their supporters. If McCain had been sitting in Falwell’s pew for 20 years, had a close and personal relationship with him, considered him part of his family and designated him as a spiritual and political advisor, then the argument holds. As it is…not so much.

Not a new point, but just had to be made once again.

(Sat through most of the commericals in the clip before realizing…what am I doing, I don’t have to watch that!)

It had to be said. We were all thinking it.

What’s after Beta-male? Omega-male?

It would be helpful if the networks could put up a disclosure and chart with all of their relationships prior to uttering a word.

For example, Claire Shipman Jay Carney are married and both were commentatrors on This Week With George Stephanopoulos.

I’m just say’n

Also, I have to say, CNN treats its guests very, very well.

Are you saying CNN are the ones that framed Eliot Spitzer?

Words are paramount and windows into the soul.

Examples: Ma’am its a boy! sort of…
I love you, Kinda…

The more Black liberation theology gets put out there for Americans to learn about the more they will see how destructive and pervasive it is.
Its the political correctness bacteria coursing its way through Americas gut.
Another instance of sunlight being the best disinfectant.

Ed I thought you did great and more Amanda anytime she did great too.

If he doesn’t believe it, he is guilty of supporting and enabling hate in order to get elected. If he does believe it he is a loon. Either way he shouldn’t be PoTUS.

Even in his speach he asked for everyone to forgive and tolerate this speach since Wright was still mad about things that happened 40 years ago. This is how Obama expects to bridge the races?

Reverse this once, if a Republican listed a Grand Kleagle of the KKK, who happened to be 70 years old, as his mentor would Obama accept that as okay, since the Kleagle is just acting on beliefs instilled in him as a small child? No, of course he wouldn’t.

Just a side note, in the above paragraph I had to specify that you had to be a Republican canidate since apparently it is okay if you were yourself a kleagle in the KKK and are elected to the Senate as long as you are a Democrat.

“What kind of person who sits in that church for 20 years and doesn’t absorb that.”
