strange i remeber you wanting a stronger rebuke of Geraldine Ferrara, oh yes she is a white republican woman....


Geraldine Ferraro said very direct things about Obama personally in order to sway support towards Clinton (as did Bill Clinton). This Wright fellow would fall more along the lines of say Falwell saying 9/11 was on account of the gays.

McCain actually did call Falwell an agent of intolerance once and then proceeded to flip-flop and speak at Liberty university when it became politically advantageous to him later on. So I have to admire Obama's honesty on this one and not just making the expected disingenuous calculated political move. It would have been easier to just throw him under the bus publicly for everyones benefit. Instead he chose a gutsier move and made a historic move in the process.
