Finally, Obama has made a speech that everyone has been screaming for…he has condemned in the strongest terms the remarks and actions of his former pastor, Rev.  Wright.  And I swear that this will be the last post on this subject I will make.

I have heard the pundits say the the situation is “very complicated”   I ask why?  It is a private citizen making outlandish comments and voicing his personal opnion.

It is complicated because the media wanted it to be so.  Almost appears, at times, that the media is attempting to assassinate the Obama campaign.  Why do I say this?  For instance, the Wright thingy is a person, not attached to the campaign is making comments, but he media keeps trying to make him a semi-major player in the campaign.  Making everything this man says as somehow important to the Obama plan.  But yet when a lie is told, an out right lie, not much was made of it and it was allowed to silently slip away.

One candidate has LIED–the other not so much–all politicians lie–it is in their genetic make up–but a voice from the fringe speaks louder than a falsehood from the middle.

IMO, Rev. Wright needs to shut the hell up–he is defeating his desire to empower African-Americans.  He is killing the every person that could make that dream come true. I have questioned his motives and still do so.

Obama has now done what all have wanted for a month–but will it be enough for the media to let it go.  Would be really nice if the media would let the candidates speak on specifics they have for the problems we all face.
