lol - don't tell me that this is the only aspect of the good Rev's speeches that you are familiar with? Please, if that is the case, then search some and you will find a wealth of racial and other hate filled sermons that this gentleman spewed forth - and while Obama was in attendance.

The next afternoon, Mr. Obama held a news conference and denounced his former pastor’s views as “divisive and destructive,” giving “comfort to those who prey on hate.” And so, with those remarks, a tightly knit relationship finally came apart — Mr. Wright had married Mr. Obama and his wife, Michelle, and baptized their children.
Yes, I give Obama credit for finally distancing himself from this man of the cloth... but the question remains - why so long? Why wait until this moment of his relationship to finally break these ties?

I wasn't judging anyone I was asking a question. I'm not sure what you were getting at.

I want to get my thread back to the beginning "watching Obama's commercial"
You're right. it was a good show. Obama should receive some positive numbers from the infomercial. I'm sure his supporters are happy with the money they donated being used to fund this.

Yeah yeah you've told us before, you think he's an Arab.

He's not afraid to go to church, he's probably at a Mosque.

It wasn't an open invite to show how ones are anti-Obama
It wasn't an open invite for those who didn't watch to weigh in opinions not based on the commercial
It wasn't an open invite to talk about past bias in the media (on either side)

It wasn't an open invite to talk about anything other than where those below middle class should be considered.....BY THOSE WHO ACTUALLY WATCHED AND CONSIDERED OBAMA'S MESSAGE.

I'm sick of seeing threads derailed because the topic is tossed of track.

If you're only going to bash Obama, please don't reply to this thread.
If you haven't watched the commercial, but already have an anti-Obama agenda set, please don't reply either.

Thank you.
Thank you.

So anyone see it that has not commented yet? I wonder if there is anyone who saw it and didn't like it.

I'm saying a Christian can judge but he/she will be judged by their same standards of judging.
