Here again We Need To Win contradicts itself. In one response he says that elitist isn't defined by how much one makes (while citing how stupid I am...) then turns around and EXPLAINS how Bill and Hillary were basically broke until Bill started making money giving speeches! Why the explanation if income has nothing to do with it?

STUPID IS...as stupid says!

The fact is millions of working class Americans support Barack Obama as well as high-income Americans. Go figure, he has supporters of all types but nimwits like you can't see that. The fact is Barack Obama has gained the support - of many Clinton defectors. Go figure.

The fact is, just because Obama made "comments" does not make him an elitist. Only the Clinton supporters and campaign organizers would claim he's an elitist while raking in over $100 million dollars...as if they truly understand middle class Americans. HA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We Need To Win said:
Oh that's right! The "white folks" are racist!

You said it, I didn't!

Bill and Hillary Clinton are not elitists. They never were; they were basically broke until Bill Clinton started making money giving speeches. Bill was also called the first African-American president and was incredibly popular with the African-Americans counnity at large. As was Hillary.

They were and are progressive heroes who have made mistakes along the way like we all do. Barack Obama is the elitist.Proof of that is his comment in San Francisco stating that working people are religious and own guns because they are religious. He got trounced in PA didn't he?

I know you hate facts - but the facts are millions of working class Americans support Hillary and high-income Americans support Obama. Now who is the elitist? Oh that's right! The "white folks" are racist!

The word is "bye" poopbutt - good riddance!

Of course you evaded the "elitist" point...typical!

Yawn. By little man, you bore me to tears.

You are NO intellectual or moral match! Your responses reveal this.

Pandering politician applies to those in politics and includes Hillary Clinton. I rest my case, again.

White folks . . . white folks . . white folks . . . white folks . . . white folks . . white folks . . . . were you always a bigot? Were you taught that at home? Or was it learned?

By the way, why is Barack only now distancing himself from Wright? Today was the first time he really did so in strong terms. Oh no! You mean he is just another pandering politician?

Are you that stupid? As if Hillary Clinton has not said things to "make her case" for the presidency?

After all - she and Chelsea ran for cover over sniper shots. She "mis-spoke".

She voted for the Iraq war, granting Bush authority to go when in fact - ALL OTHER AMERICANS expected our service men and women to go after Osama Bin Ladin. What happened? Bush went after "the guy who tried to kill his daddy" as he put it! Clinton supported this.

Obama has denounced, rejected and distanced himself from Wright. We accept this. White folks have had a hard time doing so...then blame us for not voting for Hillary. Dumb shit.

Obama twenty minutes ago:

"I am outraged by the comments that were made and saddened by the spectacle that we saw yesterday. When Reverend Wright states and then amplifies such ridiculous propositions as the U.S. government somehow being involved in AIDS, there are no excuses. They offended me. They rightly offend all Americans and they should be denounced."

Yesterday Reverend Wright stated again that the United States invented the HIV virus as a means of genocide against minorities. "Based on this Tuskegee experiment and based on what has happened to Africans in this country, I believe our government is capable of doing anything," he said. And perhaps even worse for Obama, Wright suggested that the Obama secretly concurs!

"If Senator Obama did not say what he said, he would never get elected," Wright said. "Politicians say what they say and do what they do based on electability, based on sound bites, based on polls."

Oh my! What did I just see on television! Barack Obama angrily denouncing Reverend Wright. Now either Reverend Wright is as bad as Obama just said, or Barack is just another pandering politician who will say and do anything.

No...more like "I exposed this fool for what he is!"

There was NO PRESSURE for me to crack under. You really are full of yourself, aren't you?

Smile. Cracked under the pressure did 'ya?

Yes, I would have felt BETTER if Wright had said the government purposely introduced CRACK cocaine into our communities - would be right on point!

I think you are despicable for saying "many of his flock who also believe..." when in fact you DON'T KNOW WHAT THE HELL you are talking about since you don't know his congregation. Here again exposes the point that people like you are despicable and should be dismissed.

Again, intelligent, thoughtful, progressive people CAN'T have an honest discussion about anything with nimwits like yourself infecting the discussion.

You insist on calling me a bigot and racist - so is your mother, father, and from the likes of your responses - so are you! Now, feel better?

I never said I was a Clinton supporter did I? Do you know who I voted for? No you don't.

Tuskeegee has nothing to do with anything that Wright said. He is despicable for suggesting that the US government purposely introduced AIDS into the African-American populace. You know why? Because many of his flock who also believe that jesus walked on water will also believe this crap.

You remain a bigot and a racist. Sorry that you are so proud of that.

You say "I'm wrong almost across the board" without delving into exactly what you're talking about! This is typical also from Clinton supporters.

Tuskeegee WAS IN FACT a different era but black people have not forgotten. We have forgiven, but not forgotten. Get it right. It's a valid argument and only those with itty-bitty minds with few brain cells would see this any different. Black people see this as relevant to this discussion.

Here goes this same Clinton supporter: pointing the finger and saying "we spew hatred for whitey and nothing more" without one iota of evidence to back up such a claim. Don't confuse our interest in TRUTH and HONESTY as being anti-white or racist. You can no longer fool us with that type of childish argument!

It sure is a shame when intelligent, thoughtful, progressive people want to have an HONEST discussion about race and interrupted by people like you! You're dismissed.

Anonymous - you make me laugh. Don't go there? Screw you little chile. I am pushing it. Don't like it? tough. You are a bigot and a racist; the color of one's skin does not preclude that assesment. You have no idea who I am or who I voted for or what I believe and you are wrong almost across the board. No surprise there.

Tuskegee was a different era, different media environment, different in every respect and to integrate that into this conversation about what Wright said about AIDS is absurd. That would be impossible today and you know it. That statement alone renders anything else he says dubious at best.

It's a shame that when intelligent, thoughtful progressive people want to have an HONEST discussion about race in this country that divisive and bigoted people like you can only spew hatred for whitey and nothing more. You are dismissed.

Here is another Reverend Wright gem! Talk about being divisive and racist! In his speech to the NAACP, his whole theme was “different does not mean deficient.” He talked about how blacks and whites were “different” in everything from language to music to religious worship. He even imitated the sharply different styles ofcollege marching bands. Michigan State, he demonstrated, simply did not “move” on the field the way the Grambling Band did.

Now I wonder what that was supposed to mean! The inescapable answer is that a band that is comprised mainly of African-Americans has better rhythm than a predominantly white band does. That not a racist and divisive comment? Can you imagine the outcry if a Clinton supporter said the same thing? I supposed the basketball analogy is next?

We Need To Win - I'm glad you acknowledged the fact that racial bigotry comes in all shapes in colors - as I mentioned to you before - it takes one to KNOW one!

You don't know HOW I may judge someone nor do you know what's in my heart and mind. This is simply typical of Clinton supporters to espouse false information and then run with it! Follow the leader...

Anyway, you use the argument that I would vote for Obama simply because he's AA. Never mind all the whites who have voted for Hillary under this same pretext, people like you ignore this. The polls exposed this, but you leave this out of the discussion. Typical.

I am in fact defending Rev. Wright despite the opinions of whites and the media who don't understand him or Black Liberation theology. Wright is preaching the TRUTH and that's what whites like you are scared of, the truth. Sad for you. I've made the same statement to you before and I'll make it again since you have amnesia: I agree with MOST all of what Wright says, I never said I believed his statement about AIDS created to destroy blacks. However, we know FULL WELL the role our government played in the Tuskeegee experiment so don't act STUPID when we might question these things! Don't act STUPID.

You obviously don't know WHAT I've seen, so lose the arrogant attitude and ASK ME rather than tell me, first off. I know there are black people out in the world who will dismiss Wright and his comments. Duh. There were black people who told MASSA when the others were going to burn the plantation up - there's traitors in each group of people. EXACTLY. So I'm not concerned about those against Rev. Wright. I'm MORE CONCERNED with the truth in his messages and dealing with that, the MESSAGE. Not the messenger...and here lies our difference. You attack the messenger, I'm attacking the message. Oh, but whites would rather ignore the message! Typical and unacceptable!

What I do for my community is none of your business, mister big mouth! Grow up and lose the name calling because you don't want me to go there, TRUST ME! I can and will, don't push it.

Anonymous - I am not going to be sucked into defending myself by the likes of you. Racial bigotry comes in all shapes and colors and you my friend are representative of why the Democrats are going to lose this year. You judge people by the color of their skin no matter what is in their heart and mind. You vote for someone because they are an African-American even though recent polls show them losing by 9 points. You defend a hateful, angry, insulting pastor who preaches a fairy tale every Sunday to comtrol the masses.

You obviously didn't see the literally scores of intelligent, liberal, educated, socially activist African-American leaders on television yesterday decrying the idiocy of Reverend right and stating clearly that there is NO BLACK CHURCH IN AMERICA!
I have also seen countless African-Americans interviewed who have nothing but disdain for Wright.

Do you think the US government introduced AIDS in the Black community? Answer that question! If so I want to see the proof. I am positive that won't be forthcoming will it. By the way what do you do for your community mister big mouth?

These last two comments show clearly why Democrats lose elections. Many Obama supporters are lousy, disloyal Democrats.

In a new AP-Yahoo poll - which has tracked the same 2,000 people since November - Barack Obama supporters with negative views of the New York senator have grown from 35 percent in November to 44 percent this month, including one-quarter with very unfavorable feelings.

Those Obama backers who don't like Hillary Rodham Clinton say they would vote for Republican candidate John McCain over her by a two-to-one margin, with many undecided.

OBAMA SUPPORTERS WOULD VOTE FOR 100 YEAR MCCAIN OVER HILLARY CLINTON BY 2-1.

Now that I've seen the quote in context, I can support it more. Wright is nowhere near the loony that everyone seems to think he is, as seen by this white Jewish college student. I rather like how Wright explains himself in this interview

First off, you can call me a racist or insecure bigot but it takes one to know one! Again, this is too simple and too often pulled by folks just like you. OK, now you've got that off your chest!

Let's deal with the reality. There are black churches. You see it one way, fine. But black churches exist all across America BECAUSE whites were not sane or morally right to allow black people into the white churches. Oh, but by your standards, there are no white churches! They're all just churches - who DENIED attendance by black people. You my friend simply are ignorant to the history of the church!

Your points are very small minded. They border the "typical white racist" response. You provide an explanation and then DECLARE - so you see there is no "black church". Yes there is, you just don't understand it is more like it!

Overall, I know you're a Hillary supporter. This is really about your undeniable support for her even through all her lies. No matter that she says she's ducked sniper shots and all that or whether she'd leave her pastor if he was like Wright. Who knows, she didn't leave Bill over his fornications with Lewinsky, how can we trust her on her statements about Obama's ex-pastor? We can't trust her! You can, but you probably also voted for Bush too and look what mess he got us into! Congratulations smart voter - "We Need To Win"!

You are here to defend Reverend Wright? You mean the idiot that believes in the fairy tale of jesus? That's who you are defending?

There is no such thing as "the black church". Some African-Americans are Baptist, some are Catholics, some are Muslims, some are atheists, some are agnostic. So you see there is no "black church".

You agree with Wrights that the government created AIDS for the black community do you? You really believe that?

You are a racist and I for one am sick and tired of not being able to challenge a black person in this country on the merits of who they are without being accused of being a racist. You my friend are the racist. I see no skin color; I see the deeds of a man. You only see skin color, and you are a bitter, small, insecure bigot.

For We Need To Win: I'm here to defend Rev. Wright because after all, he speaks TRUTH to all whether you like him or not. I'm about the message, not the messenger! If I concerned myself with the man as you have done, I'd call him those names too, but this isn't about him. This issue is really about how white Americans have viewed blacks, and the black church.

You thought WRIGHT was going to stay silent when white America was using all kinds of talking points AGAINST him AND his church? At the same time holding Obama accountable for Wrights statements - is one of those 'playing the dirty dozen' tricks! As a black person - I'm totally DISGUSTED with this type of idiocy. No, I won't call you racist because that's what you EXPECT. As a matter of fact, it's not racist at all to expect blacks not to vote for Obama based on his skin color while most whites according to your polls have voted for Hillary because she is white. Your standards always seem one-sided and blacks are smart enough to see this.

The news media - playing the dirty dozens - will ASK "what does Obama need to do to make this go away?" as if Obama brought this on himself. How about, MEDIA SIMPLY GO AWAY and so will Rev. Wright. You placed Wright, right into our hands because before you brought all this out, I didn't even know Rev. Wright. Thanks media!

Wright acted pompous and his attitude was a bit to be desired, but I don't blame him for his approach to white media. After all, white media has acted like the devil incarnate with how they have exploited people, especially black people so I have little love for them. Wright, was right on!

White America is having a hard time accepting the truth, is my opinion.

It's all good to quotes stats but be clear that they are polls.

It's beyond belief to think that anyone would defend this pompous, narcissistic religious ego-maniac Reverend Wright. Instead of going quietly into the night this insignificant, unimportant little man on;y seeks to extend his fifteen minutes of fame to the detriment of the entire country.

No wonder the Obama campaign is imploding and
Clinton, now leads McCain, 50 percent to 41 percent, while Obama remains virtually tied with McCain, 46 percent to 44 percent.
