This "Reverend" justifies all of his hate because this is , "the United States of white America", and we deserved 9/11 because this corrupt country was founded on racism.

All this garbage comes out of the mouth of this 'reverend' without Obama upholding the values he preaches all around the country in his campaign. All this one America stuff? This is total hypocrisy, reguardless of how good or bad Bush is doing thing, or all this 'issues'. All of this stuff is irrelevant if he has a man like this in his live, who he calls a spiritual mentor.

Even more he said he would distance himself from this man because it might hurt his campaign. This obviously means he will still be onboard with the reverends hate agenda, only put on a different face in public.

The New York Times quoted Wright as saying:

"If Barack gets past the primary, he might have to publicly distance himself from me. I said this to Barack personally, and he said: 'Yeah, that might have to happen.'"

This guy is smooth talking, but underneath it all is utter ruin. Don't look at all the distractions, if you are considering supporting this man first look into this "reverend" yourself!

Don't be taken in by all the charisma!

Oh, geez, here we go again – another fundamentalist on a soapbox, spewing self-righteous judgements and claiming justfication.

How about taking responsibility for the part we all have in destroying our earth on a daily basis, rather than point the finger at others and screaming "God's revenge is at hand," crap!

This is exactly the kind of garbage that gets us nowhere fast.

Oh, and separation of church and state is still a great idea.

BARACK THE VOTE!!!

I'm just so thankful to hear a Democrat who is not afraid to pretend he has faith in a higher power. People of Christian faith have long been led to believe that they were "supposed" to vote Republican... I've been in that camp, and I used to identify myself as a Republican... but now that I've actually started to think through some of the issues without being force-fed my beliefs by the religious powers-that-be, wow, there truly are valid reasons why a Christian could choose to vote for a Democrat. Thank you, Mr. Obama, for reinforcing what I already knew in my heart. That being "pro-life" could and should really encompass a bigger picture, including being against unjust wars, and being for the alleviation of hunger and poverty, and working for the protection of our environment.

And as for the comment where he is being compared to Bush... maybe you should brush up on your research.

I incourage you all to go to this website to see the different issues and views of all of the presidetial candidates not just Democrate but also Republican.

And thank you for responding, you're really fascinating. Honestly.

Political candidates not only have the right to discuss their faith, they have the duty to do so. How else can we make an accurate judgement of their character?

I'm not republican but I don't think all or even most republican's are stupid. Half the country is republican. Who am I to judge them? More that half of the country is Christian and their voice deserves to be heard. I don't believe we've elected a non-christian president yet.

Liberals should be overjoyed that someone out there is reaching across the aisle to get something done. He is simply telling people that our mission to make the planet better for ALL people is not much different from theirs. No political party can get anything done without support from christians, because this is a democracy. Majority rules is one of the pillars of democracy.

Whats wrong with that?

Uh, it already does. That's exactly what "man-made global climate change" is all about... it's religion for people who claim to hate religion. You know, like "Faith for the Faithless."

I am not Christian, however, I also respect my Christian friends by not wearing symbols of my beliefs around them. They in turn, do not attempt to force-feed me their views. This has NOT hindered/altered either of our beliefs. It is a simple matter of tolerance and respect and the sooner people practice those simple considerations, the sooner the "religion wars" will end.

Separation of Church and State.

Your pastor doesn't make your religion and beliefs you do. That's why Obama got away from his pastor.

GoBAMA 08!

Cary, Hillary just said on the view that if she becomes president she would use Al Gore to help her end global warming. It looks like all of the candidates believe in Global Warm not just Obama and the majority of Democrates believe in it anyway.

Zizi out

Global warming is due to the water transfer cycle, while pollution relates mostly to a poisoning effect.

The point is we are intelligent enough to alter the atmosphere and shift land masses.

The climate will always change, and in truth our pollution, while toxic and contributing to molecular conversion carbon, does not contribute in mass to the greenhouse effect so much as the loss of land locked fresh bodies of water do; this is seen in the Caspian and Aral Seas, and the growing Sahara.

We as a sapient species, must convert salt water to fresh and work to replace the lost fresh water sources and inland seas. With a great increase in global humidity: glaciers will reform and the ice-caps will gain precipitation. With that water evaporate, heavy atmosphere hurricanes will have a harder time forming in the rising oceans. Yes, oceans are rising and will continue too as the ice melts and as we drain ground water sources into them; water is not easily release from such a deep cold and churning mass body. Shallow inland seas feed the weather cycle, but without the environmental contribution of water to the atmosphere heat retention is reduced so it gets colder faster...

The only way Dems can lose this race now is to make Barak Hussein the Dem candidate.

You really think the Republican attack machine will leave Barak Hussein alone ? They'll bring out an attack on his middle name that'll make the "Swift Boat Veterans" look like a picnic. Who knows what skelteons are in Barak's cupboard from his time at a madrassa in Indonesia. Jehadi ties maybe ?

Think ! Don't be fooled by the Politics of False Hope !

With that said,
God will judge and destroy you all. You cowards live your lives serving money and immorality. I've been guilty of it too. Very soon we'll feel the pain of our ways and it will be too late to turn back. Repent to God, come home to your brothers and sisters.

I resect religion, but please don't go to far to telling atheist to repent. You'll seem crazy. This is about the enviroment and whether faith should play a role in. I think it should, all people, black, white, asian, arab, indian, religious, atheist, non-religious, democrate and republican, liberal and conservative, all people should play a role in protect our planet.

Obama, Bravo, Bravo. Thank you for help bring up the issue of Global Warming in this race. I hope more candidates bring it up soon. And thank to Al Gore for making this an issue in this election!

Let me remind Hillary Supports that Hillary has a religion as well and so do the other candidates. If Obama talks about religion that means that, unlike Hillary, he will say what he truly believes. Hillary on the other hand will say anything to get a vote. She's a robot.

What we need is a leader that is not so arrogant as to accept religion's view of our significance in the world. Statements like "God gave us dominion over animals" and "God created woman for man to have a servant" remind us of the arrogance that has created religion. How about a leader that simply accepts we exist, does not need a reason for it and therefore works to improve the here and now?

Sorry Hillary, but I will not be voting for you this year.

Sorry Obama. I'm not buying it.

Jeez no wonder Americans are the ridicule of the world – they can't even put simple things into perspective.

This isn't LaLa Land .. we need Patton, we need Churchill , we need a man who isn't afraid of what some socialist European country "thinks" of us! We need to take off the gloves and go whole hog in Iraq before we have to change our nameplate to "United States of Muslim"
