Wkmac,
Some things require research and links to various sources. sometimes a little common sense needs to be applied.
Obama promises to be the guy that cleans up Wash Dc. I am all for cleaning up the DC BS games. I'm praying someone comes along with the leadership and conviction to do so.
The Reverend wright ordeal is more then some smut to be displayed on the front page of the enquirer.
In fact it shows someone who passively accepted wrights teachings. It then shows someone who quickly turned on his religious mentor when it was politically expedient to do so.
So to summarizes passively sits and accepts wrights lunatic ravings. Then stabs his religious mentor in the back when it gets too hot in the kitchen. Sounds like another DC insider to me.
The wright affair is a strong clue as to how Obama will operate. His track record in congress does not show an innovater but someone who follows the crowd.
thus I question his leadership and conviction for change.
Tie,
I thnk Obama and Wright had a symbiotic relationship for poltical purposes. You can read my comments to D on that in another thread.
As for Hagee, let's just say I don't buy his brand of eschatology and the use of US gov't might to foster self fulfilling prophesy to speed the return of Jesus and Hagee's idea of the Kingdom of God!
Wright is no Boy Scout and IMO an opportunist but Hagee is the far more dangerous IMO on many levels. I wouldn't go so far as to say Hagee is McCain's preacher in the sense Wright
"appeared" to be to Obama. Read my comments to D and you'll understand why I qualified the word appeared.
McCain should disconnet himself from Hagee but he won't, therefore this issue is a factor IMHO and thus some comments in the NY Times piece are valid!
