[Sosfbay-discuss] So Much For Our 'Conversation' About Race

[Tian Harter]

I tried to post this comment, but it won't let me for some reason:

I saw some footage of Rev. Wright on the PBS News Hour. He briefly
mentioned something to the effect that "we deserved 9/11." (I'm
paraphrasing) He also said something like "I speak for the Black Church,
not Barak Obama."  His words got me thinking "At least this is an
American voice speaking for a decentralized institution." A big
improvement on the Pope in Rome speaking for the Catholic-Americans.
Then I thought "nobody else on the campaign trail is saying that."
Hillary and McCain are pandering with talk of a gas tax holiday.
I'm liking Barak's entourage more and more, even if he is spineless
enough to disown them for speaking truth to power.
