Much as the Obama camp and its various enablers want the issue of his twenty-year association with the Right Reverend Jeremiah Wright to go away, I consider it a civic duty to keep it in the mix. The fate of the Republic is at stake. Most of us ordinary mortals use a church to provide moral compass to help us navigate through crises of all sorts.
If we take Obama’s word at face value, i.e., that he did not have any idea Wright was preaching abominable anti –American sentiments, that simply means he was clueless for twenty (of forty-six?) years. Why should the American people want somebody clueless to occupy the Oval Office?
If he had some inkling into what Wright was all about and he has stayed in that church all this time, it means he subscribes to the anti-American abominations. Why should America put at the helm of state somebody who is against all the good that America stands for?
If he was aware of what Wright was all about but did not have the courage of his convictions to denounce it, why should America put in the Oval Office somebody so spineless as to not even have a hiccup through twenty years of such insults to America?
I am a first-generation American and I am deeply offended. Is there anyone out there who feels the same way as I do?
