  • Ilk or Actuality?

    I have to question the premise of Hitchens' argument. It seems he prefers to remain among those who feel they haven't heard enough renunciation and distancing in Obama's ''handling'' of his ''pastor situation.'' The senator actually demonstrated integrity treating the Rev. Wright and his comments with more seriousness than a mere political ...

  • Re: 'White folks greed' not responsible??

    Kaus and so many commentators have demonstrated a lack of intellectual understanding of what it has taken in the country to struggle to get past racial resentments. I don't think these Wright sermons have demonstrated ''racism'' by either Wright or his detractors -- but a lack of education about civil rights. Any person who has made the most ...

  • I DON'T think Rev. Wright is racist/unpatriotic, this is why

    ''I can no more disown him than I can disown the black community.'' -Barack Obama This statement really resonated with me as an African-American/Black woman. When the senator spoke those words, I knew them to be true. In the days that have followed the airing of Rev. Wright's sermons, I have watched the media and heard some white americans ...

  • WHITE ON WRIGHT

    The crux of all this indignant fury over Rev. Wright's sermons seems to be that they are specifically ''un-American'' in their fiery, pulpit-powered rhetoric; as one blogger put it, with typical insightfulness: ''those comments are just plain WRONG!'' Wrong indeed, I won't for a moment excuse the deep wrongness in Rev. Wright's fury, however ...
