Also, this man is not a minister, at least not of christianity. And yes, his roots with farrakhan are deep
@claudelv250.......you need help

Well it is making the news because he is in FACT the PASTOR OF OBAMA. I am not blaming Obama for this guy's remarks but why would he want to be associated with someone like this?? Dont you think its crazy that Obama is associating himself with this person for 20 years and why recently he made him an advisor on his African American relations committee?? Of course you dont and I am sure you probably dont even care about the racist remarks he is making because of your one sided biased support for Obama. Obama needs to be measured with the same standards as McCain or Hillary, but of course Obama supporters dont think so.

@Claude. Great job ignoring the rest of my post! Wonderful!

Ignore the part that said I prefer Obama and then decide that I think he's a robot being controlled by his preacher! Wonderful.

You're still acting like an idiot.

Care to elaborate?

I ignored the rest of your post because it was irrelevant to my original post. So what if he hasn't distanced himself from the man? It's going to happen anyway, it always does. It's the same damn routine that's been happening for weeks, and months. Someone from Hillary's camp says something stupid, people get pissy until she denounces the person and distances herself, then a bit later someone in Barack's camp does the same thing and the process is repeated. The difference is that the person in question isn't even in Barack's camp, that's how desperate people are getting for this kind of drama.

Oh, and I may be "acting like an idiot," but you are an idiot. See, I can insult people too!! Weeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!

@Claude, no it was entirely relevant. You said that people were being hypocritical for attacking this guy and not attacking the chick from Hillarys camp, I explained why it was the case.

Obama hasn't yet distanced himself from this guy and I don't know if he will. Also this guy is closely linked to Obama, openly endorses him, Obama knows about him and Obama hasn't yet done anything.
Let me put it this way, if you were say, Hillary, and your priest went and joined the KKK and started preaching racial supremacy and how you should win because you were white. Wouldn't you distance yourself from him?

Same situation, I'm losing respect for Obama if he doesn't distance himself from a racist person who is endorsing him and who he is closely linked to.


Oh and I don't really care if you call me an idiot to be honest =\

 Ron Paul was no idiot

Really sucks being a white male, we are on the receiving end of the worst discrimination and racism in today's society.

We can't even say the word "black" without getting lawsuits

 No, he was a good honest man who would have made a terrible president.

I didn't say anything about hypocrisy, I said the people were trying to deflect Ferraro's comments by pointing at Obama's preacher instead. In other words it's damage control by shifting attention to something else. And like I said, Obama is obviously going to denounce the man, it's just ridiculous that people's 'respect' revovle around whether hedid it at 1:00 or 1:15.

All I can say is thank God people aren't trying to hold me accountable for the actions of everybody I associate with. I'm not sure I could accomplish anything if I had to worry about all of the decisions somebody I've met has made or might make in the future.
