my bad. I didn't read your post very closely and I thought you were asking me to explain the context of each. I didn't really care to explain the context of the pastor's remarks. so I posted a link to someone that does. after all, if anyone dislikes the pastor that much, my advice to them would be to not vote for the pastor in November. but anyhow, the link explains the context and the sermon, for anyone that's interested. I might add that there's kind of a thing with black sermons where the pastor gets all fired up in the middle and says crazy outrageous things, and then ends sorta peacefully. that's what Wright was doing. he was essentially saying governments are flawed, you can't count on government, but that God is not flawed.
here's the key portion of the sermon. knock yourself out.
YouTube - Tell the Whole Story FOX! Barack Obama's pastor Wright
when you watch the whole thing, be sure to note the "as long as" condition, mentioned by Wright, following the oft-quoted objectional remarks. I doubt they've been shown on Fox news. context.

then you're being dishonest.
"I'm hungry."
"I'm really hungry."
same thing?
how about this?
"I'm proud."
"I'm really proud."
question: why did Fox News edit out the "really." why does a news organization edit out words and misrepresent what people say?

I'm referring to the words in bold from the part of Obama's speech I quoted.
would you agree that some, not all, people are bitter in the way Hussein is saying? had you ever heard that part before?
