Here is what Obama said: "Let me say at the outset that I vehemently disagree and strongly condemn the statements that have been the subject of this controversy. I categorically denounce any statement that disparages our great country or serves to divide us from our allies. I also believe that words that degrade individuals have no place in our public dialogue, whether it's on the campaign stump or in the pulpit. In sum, I reject outright the statements by Rev. Wright that are at issue." http://www.huffingtonpost.com/barack-obama/on-my-faith-and-my-church_b_91623.html ---------------- What he did do was reject the words, what he didn't do was reject the man. THAT TOOK BALLS. And that's what I want from a candidate: balls. cajones. jewels. You see, here is everyone throwing a shit storm at him. He could've pussed out and threw the guy under the bus but he didn't; knowing that it might strengthen the shit storm. Isn't that what we bitch about all of the time? Pussy politicians that bend to any breeze? What Obama did was stick up for his friend and went further to tell everyone who didn't like it to shove it up their ass. And he even went one step farther: he WROTE HIS OWN SPEECH ABOUT RACE! and in it, again, he didn't wuss out. So all this controversy has done for me is tell me that this jug-eared black dude has some real balls and ain't afraid to tell assholes to suck it. It's about time we had a candidate with a brass pair. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;160198600;22374440;w Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/message.cfm/messageid:257243 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5
