I am finally going to discuss my take on the Rev. Wright situation. I do not understand why this is as big of an issue as it is. First off, why does what Obama's pastor says have any effect on him as a presidential candidate. Just because that is what the pastor believes, it does not mean that that is what Obama believes. I know in my church, everyone has a different idea of what is going on, though we all get the same message. Second, first Obama is a Muslim so he shows the public his church life to prove he isn't, then his pastor has said some controversial statements in his time and Obama gets hit on that too. No one even knows about Hillary and McCain's church life at all. There are Republicans who are mad about Rev. Wrights statements that listen to Pat Robertson and Jerry Falwell. I actually agree with Rev. Wright about his statements on 9-11, how we attack other countries and now they have attacked us. I do not agree that gays caused Hurricane Katrina.
It seems like all the little things that could be bad for Obama are stretched to be really bad things, when all the real bad things that should be bad for Hillary are not to be talked about.
At a recent college meet and greet. A man asked Chelsea Clinton if she thought the Lewinsky scandal had hurt her mother's credibility. Chelsea told him it was none of his business. Okay, so he should not have asked the daughter about it, but I think that it is his business. Why it is it not to be talked about. It seems like a big elephant in the room. But if Obama was to point out the elephant, he would ripped apart. Yet, Obama's preacher makes a comment a couple of years ago and Obama is hurt because of it.
Obama has been open about his taxes and schedules and life, yet Hillary is very secretive and will not release stuff until she has to. What is she hiding? We really don't get much of Hillary's personal life, but you get all of Obama's.
Obama now has to keep his distance from Rev. Wright, and Rev. Wright's credibility has been hurt. Yet Hillary has said nothing about the fact that Jim Carville called Bill Richardson "Judas." And she continues to make comments about Rev. Wright, when it should now not be an issue.
