Change: Obama's Evolving Positions On His G-Damning Pastor

Andrew Bolt discovered a couple of controversial statements on the evolving Obama. I added a couple more.

Barack Obama is tripping over himself trying to explain why he kept race-bigot Jeremiah Wright as his pastor, mentor and advisor for so many years.

** Last year:

"I don’t think my church is actually particularly controversial," Obama said at a community meeting in Nelsonville, Ohio, earlier this month.
** March 15-- 10 days ago:

"When I saw these statements which I had heard for the first time. Then I thought it was clear that I had to make a clear and unequivocal statement. None of these statements were ones that I had heard myself personally in the pews. One of them I had heard about after I had started running for president..."
** March 18-- Last week:

Did I ever hear him make remarks that could be considered controversial while I sat in church? Yes. Did I strongly disagree with many of his political views? Absolutely...
** March 20-- Thursday:

"I told him (Wright) that I profoundly disagreed with his positions... And my belief was that given that he was about to retire, that for me to make a political statement respecting my church at that time wasn't necessary."
** March 23-- Sunday:

I haven't been going to church. I wasn’t hearing a lot of these comments. The ones that are most offensive are ones that I never knew about until they were reported on. I had had conversations with him in the past – in fact from the day I first met him -- about some of his views.
CHANGE We Can Believe In!

What I noticed was that Obama "cringes" at the thought of his grandma's fear of black men passing her by on the street, but twenty years of crackpot racism in his own church is fine and dandy.

People are now learning something that has been going on for decades but we could never talk about without being called a racist.

What is that?

That racism is an equal opportunity employer. Some of the most racist and bigoted people in this country are black and they are proud of the fact that they are.

It is about time we start treating all racists equally.

I agree wholeheartedly with what nahanni said. Of course, since I'm her sister, I would.
