After months of dodging the question of his association with the Reverend Jeremiah Wright, finally Obama disavowed him and disowned him yesterday.
Why?
Not because he disagrees with any of Wright’s inflammatory sermons.
No, it is because Wright made a comment about the fact that as a politician, Obama will do or say anything to be considered electable.
Obama claims that this is untrue, and that Wright does not know him after 20 years.
Quite the contrary, Mr. Obama. He knows you only TOO well.
After all, he married you to your wife, baptized your daughters, and as your pastor, has probably had some very private conversations with you about you and your life which few others would ever have been privy too.
And you did, after all, attend these inflammatory sermons yourself for how many years? Can I hear an Amen?t
The headline in the New York Daily News today says it all–BARACK STABBER
You have stabbed your friend and mentor in the back on a national, if not global scale and shown your true colors even to those who were once dazzled by you.
You are a hypocrite, and THAT is what makes you unelectable. You’ve managed, in a few short months in front of the media, to go from meteoric rise, to spectacular fall, all on your own.
It was your election to win or lose, and you are losing, because you were arrogant enough to think you could weather the storm or controversy, and now hypocritical enough to try to dump the very person you described as a fatherly figure only a few short weeks ago.
There is no room for this level of dishonesty in Democratic Party when we need every vote we can muster to beat the Republicans and end the insanity of 8 years of mismanagement. There is no room for this level of open dishonesty before you ever even get anywhere near the White House.
And there is no room in the hearts of the American people for someone who has shown himself to be as UnAmerican as you are by association, despite all your trappings of flags behind you every time you make a speech these days, as if you are already president.
You have gone from media darling, to media sham,and slam, in only a few short weeks. You will go down in history as the most promising president that never was, and you have only yourself to blame for it at the end of the day.
Amen!
