What if the shoe were on the other foot.....

Regarding the whole controversey over Jerimiah Wright and what appears to be his Anti-White tirades in the form of sermons. Is he right that White have historically not treated blacks equally? Is he right that Whites have discriminated against them in the past? Yep, it's true. However, trying to change things now doesn't mean continuing to bring up the past. How can you keep moving forward if you continue to live in the past? Can you change things in the past? Nope. But, you can learn from it, you can work to try to keep the future from looking like the past.

As for his claims that 9/11 was Americas fault, well, c'mon. We've heard this argument from Liberals fairly frequently. It's America's fault, and henceforth the ends justify the means apparently. America deserves to be punished, so hey, let's crash some planes into buildings, attack the Pentagon and go after the White House. Ok, well, what did that solve Mr Wright? Are things better now? Nope. Particular Imams (Muslim Priests) are still preaching hate, still preaching that Kaffar (The equivalent of the "N" word, except applied towards non-Muslims) must convert to Islam or die. To be fair, Christianity did that too though, converst to Christianity or die. Then again, that was the Crusades and this is the 21st Century, so, you know, it's justified. NOT!

So you see Mr. Wright, when you preach something that sounds a lot like what the Imams are preaching, then it's not much of a suprise when people get upset. As for is it justified that Obama doesn't disown his pastor? Well, that's a personal choice. The question is, is what Mr. Wright preaches mostly good or bad? Hard to say as we've only seen the bad stuff thus far. He makes some good points about the past, but again, we're looking forward not back. Hating "Whitie" isn't solving problems right now. Unless you have something better to offer, you're not very helpful.

I wonder if Mr. Wright is against slavery, even slavery from the past? I would assume that he was given the speech we've heard from him thus far. So, if he TRULY is against slavery, then I'm wondering exactly when he will condem the Africans for enslaving the Jews back in Egypt, which is documented not only in the Bible, but in history as well. So Mr. Wright, looking forward to your condeming blacks for enslaving the Jews way back then. Can't wait to hear it....... I'll not hold my breath though.

It's a valid question....

I think that Chelsea should simply answer the question. Did the whole Monica Lewinsky scandal hurt Hillary's credibility. It's a valid question folks. Remember that Hillary defended her husband, Slick Willie, with everything she had. I have no problem with her standing by her man, something incidentally, that she made fun of others for stating "I'm not like one of these Tammie Wynette types, standing by their man." Yet, that's what she did. But, that aside, a woman who has faith in her husband, of course, she will defend him against accusations like that. However, the problem I had with it was that she wrote it off as a "vast Right Wing Conspiracy" of which I was thrilled to be a part of. For the love of all that's holy, they had DNA evidence! You can't fake that!

However, this is a valid question that Chelsea should answer because by Hillary referring to the whole thing as a Vast Right Wing Conspiracy, and then the truth coming out that the affair was true, well, that made Hillary look like an idiot. Now, she's telling us to vote for her because she's got experience, she's got the know how and she's the best person for the job. She's the one who should be answering that phone at 3am! Well, I'm guessing you would be answering that phone at 3am, cause Bill just might be out with an intern if you get in the White House Hillary!

Seriously, her credibility is damaged from that. Not once did Hillary ever apologize to those that made the accusations. Not once did she ever say that she was wrong to call it a Vast Right Wing Conspiracy. Not once! So, absolutely, her credibility is called into question. Can we honestly see her as credible due to the way she handled the accusations. After all, if she's not able to handle that, which I absolutely do not mean or intend to minimize the trauma she went through with being humiliated by Slick Willie, but I just don't see how you can say "trust me" when you're not even big enough to admit you were wrong to call others names (members of the Vast Right Wing Conspiracy for example which is implied by her accusation that the whole thing was the result of a Vast Right Wing Conspiracy).

So Chelsea should absolutely answer, or refuse to answer, the question. Telling people "it's none of your business" is not an answer. Cause you know what Chelsea, it is my business when your mom refers to people who want to know about this and people who thought it should be investigated, as part of a Vast Right Wing Conspiracy and then not apologize to me for it. Crap, your dad apologized for the whole thing, but, not the Vast Right Wing Conspiracy part of it.

Chelsea should answer the question or refuse to answer it because when you tell people it's not your business, you're making the situation worse. Just tell me "no comment" instead. You're not helping yourself by avoiding the issue. It brings back memories of a huge scandalous cover-up that reminds me of Clinton Part I. This is just one of a ton of reasons why I would never vote for Hillary.

I would honestly feel better if you would just tell me you're not going to talk about that issue. But to tell me it's none of my business when it WAS part of the country's business so many years ago because Slick Willie was selfish, well, that just irks me. Just answer the question, because this isn't going to go away!
