Hatemongering, Racist Minister Resigns From Obama Campaign

From MSNBC:
Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., condemned racially charged sermons by his former pastor Friday and urged Americans not to reject his presidential campaign because of “guilt by association.”

Obama’s campaign announced that the minister, the Rev. Jeremiah Wright Jr., had left its spiritual advisory committee after videotapes of his sermons again ignited fierce debate in news accounts and political blogs.
When the "association" lasts twenty years, including marrying you and your wife and baptizing your kids, supplying the title for your book, and being your "spiritual advisor," the "guilt" is yours as much as his, Barack.

There's also little doubt that this creature would still be a part of the Obama campaign if those pesky videos of him spewing his bile hadn't hit the internet. A decent man would have told this hatemonger off and left his church, oh, about twenty years ago.

Nice try, though.
