Yeah, it’s a Fox story, but, still, expect Barack Obama to get more scrutiny over his church pastor, Jeremiah Wright.
Is what Wright saying any more offensive than anti-Catholic comments by McCain backer John Hagee or newly uncovered anti-Muslim ones by McCain “spiritual advisor” Rod Parsley?
No, they’re not. Are they any less offensive, though?
No, they’re not.
And, does Obama have a longer relationship with Wright? Yes, he does.
It will be hard for his campaign to play the “repudiation” card against McCain with this.
A skeptical leftist's, or post-capitalist's, or eco-socialist's blog, including skepticism about leftism (and related things under other labels), but even more about other issues of politics. Free of duopoly and minor party ties. Also, a skeptical look at Gnu Atheism, religion, social sciences, more.
Note: Labels can help describe people but should never be used to pin them to an anthill.
