A Word About Barack Obama, Jeremiah Wright, Bill Ayers, and A Piece of Metal.
You know, much has been said about Barack Obama’s friendship with Jeremiah Wright, his professional relationship with his neighbor Bill Ayers, and the concern about his level of patriotism, because he does not adorn a flag pin on his clothes.
I’ve heard so many statements wondering how he could have stayed in Reverend Wright’s congregation for so long, and not have known what the man was preaching about. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeremiah_Wright
I’ve heard so many questions about why he was an associate and neighbor of Bill Ayers.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bill_Ayers
And I’ve heard many things about rather or not he loves his country.
Now I am going to try and effectively respond to these concerns one by one, and try to put these matters to rest before the primary tomorrow in North Carolina, and Indiana, and before all of the other primaries to come, once and for all.
I am troubled by the fact that so many of the so called “America Can’t Be Wrong”, “America has no problems”, and “America definitely does not have anymore racism” people, are bashing Obama for his personal, professional, and spiritual relationships with people that he knew before his bid for the presidency, and in his choice of accessories for his wardrobe.
I agree that these are important matters that need to be explained, however, it seems as if in Obama’s case, the importance has been exaggerated to the nth. Degree.
Why?
Obama’s relationship with the Reverend Jeremiah Wright is just as important as the relationships that George H. Bush had with the Saudi Government; a country where the majority of the terrorist who attacked our country on 911came from. http://www.newsaic.com/f911chap3-2.html
Obama’s relationship with Bill Ayers is no less important then George W. Bush lying about his military records, and his alcohol and drug abuse, (before he became a presidential candidate), and some might think during his presidency if you look at his irrational and counter productive behaviors during both of his stints in the white house.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_W._Bush_substance_abuse_controversy
They have even tried to make Obama’s clothing accessories a big issue as well.
As a matter of fact, there are those who can tell that he does not love his country because he does not accessorize his wardrobe with flag pins, and other superficial expressions of patriotism.
The fact of the matter is, that there have been many presidential candidates who have had bad associations, and negative incidents in their past, and they were given a chance to explain their positions, and to correct their faults.
And, they were not asked to do it over, and over, and over again.
Everyone seemed pretty dammed satisfied with the answers.
But, in Obama’s case, the answers and explanations seem to fall on deaf ears, no matter how much sense they make, and how many times he has to answer the same questions.
It seems that these conservatives have an insatiable appetite for bashing Obama, even if it is not justified.
Why?
There have been sitting presidents that have been involved in questionable business dealings, questionable associations, and other suspicious behaviors, who have been given chances to prove themselves worthy of the public’s trust.
What makes Obama different?
Obama has explained that he had a lot of respect for Reverend Wright, because of the family ties that he had established with Wright over a 20-year period.
He has said that in spite of his feelings for the reverend, he did not always agree with everything that the reverend said.
And after last week's fiasco by the Reverend, he has even publicly denounced him, and his politics.
And now these bastards still are not satisfied, and want to know what took him so long.
What in the hell is taking Hillary so long to declare the truth about her many shady relationships, business dealings, and lies?
Why did it take Bill Clinton so long to tell the truth about what he had already lied about?
And what in the hell is taking George Bush so long to tell the truth about the occupation of Iraq?
I don’t know. But America sure gave, and is giving them much more of a chance to do so, then they are giving Obama.
What’s the difference?
Obama has explained that Bill Ayers was a professional associate of his, when they both were members on the board of directors for the Woods Fund of Chicago, an anti-poverty, philanthropic foundation established in 1941. He also explained that Bill Ayers was a neighbor of his in Chicago, and that when Bill Ayers was an active radical, he was only 8 years old.
Unfortunately, because Hillary Clinton really does not have a solid plan for solving America’s problems, she has put many of these answered questions into the minds of her supporters as unanswerd important concerns that they should really be concerned with and afraid of.
Once again!- she does not mind deceiving even her most fathful supporters.
But here’s the real deal coming from someone who is not a politician who is running for President of the United States of America, or for any other poltical office for that matter.
When he was sitting in Reverend Wright’s church prior to becoming a candidate for president, no matter what he heard, or what the hell Jeremiah Wright said or did, ( a significant amount of which the black community knows as truth), not from opinion or theory, which is what the conservatives outrage of his teachings stems from; but from actually living, or should I say surviving, in the black community-something that none of these consevative bastards have knowledge of , concern for, or authority to speak on.
But anyway!- In what country was he sitting in Reverend Wright’s church in?
When he became a professional associate of Bill Ayers on a professional level while serving on the board of directors with him, in what country did this relationship take place?
And when Barack Obama decided that he did not want to wear a piece of metal to prove how patriotic he was, in what country did he make this decision in?
He made all of these dammed decisions in the United States of America. And, he had every dammed right to decide what church he wanted to set in. whom he wanted to be associated with., and what the hell he did, or did not want to wear on his shirt.
Now what bothers me is the fact that all of these flag waiving, patriotic preaching fools, who preach about the land of the free, the home of the brave, the constitution, and the bill of rights are the very same people who are condemming a man for the friends that he had before he had to distance himself from them because of his desire to run for the office of President of the United States of America, the boards on which he sat with people who he had no control over, and his right to wear or not wear what ever the hell he pleases.
So let’s just cut to the chase:
Isn’t all of this stupid bull-shit about Obama simply because of the fact that he is black?
Obama has answered these and other questions about who he is or is not on more then one occasion.
But it seems like since he is the first black candidtate to run for President of the United States, many people do not care that he is a viable, honest and sincere qualified candidate; only that he is black.
And these are Hillary’s core voters.
The ones that we must outwit and out number for the remainder of thees primary contests if we hope to help get Barack Obama into the White House..
So if you want to work together for a change fo the better in the inner workings of our Government in Washington, and across the country, please vote for Barack Obama, be you black, yellow, red, brown, or white.
Thank you,
Greg Coleman
