I do, however, think it is rather hypocritical to be okay with this kind of lame opportunist attacking when it's against someone you don't agree with, but then be against it when it's against someone you do agree with.



Really?

See I think that if we paid more attention from the get go, to Wright, Obama, "racism typical of white people" like his grandmother, We could avoid seeing a racist being appointed to the supreme court.


On and on, we see Obama is about race, now I don't want to derail a thread. But lets face it. Hannity rejected the racist in his midst, Obama, not only hung around for 20 years, but defended him, called white people racists, and appointed a racist to SCOTUS.


This is a pattern that sadly, has just only begun.

I think a lot of what Obama has said has been misunderstood or taken out of context. I don't think he's racist in any way. Wright, on the other hand, is. Just because Obama sat in church for 20 years listening to this man doesn't necessarily mean that he shares his views. In that same way, I don't agree with Hannity, but I certainly think that he's smart enough not to share such extremist views of Turner. So, even if they are trying to tie together (which I honestly don't see) it's no different, to me, than people trying to tie Obama to Wright or Ayers. However, I do find it interesting that you haven't mentioned the obvious parallels between this and the Ayers issue too. In fact, I brought the Ayers issue up and you ignored it and instead chose the Wright issue. Is it because that's more convenient or do you really not see the parallels between this and the Ayers issue?

They've said far worse, much along the lines of "inciting violence".

Would you care to provide some examples? I'm honestly curious.

What other reason would he have for sitting in that church listening to that man's views?

One or two sermons--yeah, I'd agree with you. 20 years? No, that's agreement.

More instructively, I don't see where Hannity waited to bounce Turner from his show. Dear Leader waited until everyone was calling him on the carpet to throw first his grandmother then Wright under the bus.

If it was the right thing to do, it should have been done right away. If it was not the right thing to do, it should not have been done at all. In matters of right and wrong, delay is damnation.

I am aware of Farakhan calling Judaism a "gutter religion".

I am aware of Wright's odious polemics against the United States.

I am not aware of either saying "go forth and kill."

Turner said "go forth and kill" and then offered to provide the bullets.
