      This is why we should put more thought in who we are voting for. If he agrees with this man…our country will go down the drain.

      CONTINUES?

      This video is from 2003 Perez.. Did you even watch it?

      Or were you it too much of a hurry to post something that you think might hurt Obama… who is STILL kicking Hillary's tail despite your attempts to stop him.

      We're all on the same team here. How bout you focus some energy on MCCAIN?

      He doesn't "continue" to make these comments you fucking idiots. If you were real media members you would at least know he is retired…AND…Barack has repeatedly publicly disagreed with a lot of the things this man says. We understand you want Billary to win so you can be closer to gay marriage, but stick to celebrity news and don't try real reporting, because you suck at it.

      oh and ps…obviously this guy is passionate about his ridiculous beliefs, crazy, but passionate…but that's his right as an american isn't it?

      This is sooo horrible. This was Obama pastor for THE LAST 20 YEARS. He is part of this congregation. This preacher married him and his wife. Look at the audience. Obama is a part of that. Obama could chose any pastor he want and he goes with this guy. When America sees this he DEFINATELY WILL NOT WIN. I SURE AS HELL WON'T VOTE FOR HIM. This guy is fucking nuts!

      Perez,

      Not once did I see you comment or blog about Ms. Geraldine Ferraro's negative, derisive and hateful comments about Sen. Obama. Rev. Wright's comments are equally out of line and Sen. Obama has not assimilated with his opinions at all.

      It's obvious that you support Sen. Clinton and that's fine. She would be a good candidate, if she had not made this campaign so ugly and negative recently. At the very least, I suggest you become more fair and less biased on how you report information. It would give the message that you are very adult, mature and responsible on.

      God bless…

      This is the guy who Obama said was his spiritual advisor, mentor, and role model. He is as much a nut job as Farrakhan and I have to believe Obama is pretty much in the same boat. You really can't put Obama in some bubble and say it doesn't matter. He has gone to this wacko's church for over a decade and listened to this drivel and must have approved of it in some sense or he would have left (like anyone with any sense). People always compare Obama to Kennedy because of his charisma - well, Hitler was charismatic too. And the more we see of the real Obama and not the crafted image, the less Kennedyesque he looks.

      52

      whoa, I was way off…
      Just a note to Hillary supporters: Calling Obama a terrorist and such just makes people want to vote for him more, Carl Rove even said this!
      And if you support Hillary you should spend your time building her up on tearing Obama down, it will come back to bite you in the ass later…
      Get a clue Hillbillies!

      Barack definitely needs to distance himself from this guy a bit if he wants to hang on to the white vote. This Wright guy reminds me of Sharpton. I'm from WI & white and trust me there's nothing we want more than to see Obama go all the way, but he needs to ride the wave of peace not anger!

      Perez, it is not right that you ONLY choose to post negative things about Obama. You failed to post Ferraro's negative and racist comments - c'mon now. You are perpetuating negative stereotypes. It is fine to be a Clinton supporter - but why are you so one-sided? Why would you continue to attack Obama and perpetuate the divide among Democrats? Why not focus your energy on McCain? I'm very disappointed in the way you've taken advantage of your powerful place in the media.

      Well, I haven't been to the states for a few years now, but last I remember it was allowed to criticize the government.

      Just because he is Barack's pastor doesn't mean he agrees with what he says. Do you agree with everyone in your family? Does everyone in your family [PEREZ] approve that you are gay? I love gay people and my husband is homophobic..do I agree with him NO. Stop making it appear that Barack is endorsing him. I am a black woman and do not agree with what the pastor says. The media shouldn't sensatilize (spell check) every time someone brings up the race issue because it is detracting from the real issues at hand.

      You Obama supporters are retarded! But that's no surprise. Yes the Pastor is retired and yes Obama wants us to believe he doesn't agree with these hateful rants. The whole point is this was Obama's Pastor, a hateful racists who is anti-American. If Obama didn't like this man's views he wouldn't have been a faithful follower of that church!

      85

      Yes this particular comment was from 2003, but his comments against Hillary and Bill are more recent then 2003. The point is Obama has YET to come out and say that he completely disagrees with what this minister says. This isn't just a peer of Obama, this is Obama's MINISTER and FRIEND. This guy married Obama and his wife!!! Obama should be ashamed to be supported by this guy and Obama should come out and apologize for these comments and say that he doesn't agree with them, not one bit!

      VOTE FOR HILLARY!!!

      why is it always a black thing? why? WHY.

      and to say that we basically deserved 9/11 so disrespectful. dumbdumbdumb.

      i know plenty of black people who work hard and succeed. if you ( and i'm talking about ANYONE black,white,anything else ) just sit there and bitch about your life because "america hates (insert race here) people" . it's not a 'black thing", buck up and BREAK THE CYCLE if you don't like it.

      Oprah also happens to be a member of this man's congregation. As are many, many other people.

      Being part of a church does not mean you have to automatically agree with everything they say. I am a Christian, but I support equal rights among everyone, including homosexuals. I am a Christian, yet I do not support evangelical fanaticism. My mentor was my father…a devoted Baptist who was unfortunately from a place that instilled racism and intolerance in his mind. I disagreed with him, but he still did so many things for me to look up to.

      And an important thing was becoming my own person. Any mentor is there to guide someone, not shape them into lackeys. Judging Obama based on this man's remarks would be like judging Hillary based on Ferraro's racist comments.

      stop acting like fox news, perez. obama doesn't have this guy out campaigning with him, he has said that he disagrees with him. this is really manipulative. why don't you put up clips of bill o'reilly and ann coulter endorsing hillary. she didn't ask for their support either, but with your (fox) logic, we should blame hilary for everything they say!

      Perez, you're a fucking moron. Don't you understand that posting this crap is only going to help put McCain in the White House. We understand you support Hillary. But you don't have to keep posting negative stuff on Barack. If he gets the nomination, your posts are going to hurt him. And you've said you would support him if he does get the nom. What is wrong with you?

      Not to mention, these sermons are from years ago, so your comment about 'Barack's pastor continues to make very controversial remarks' is totally misleading. This guy is retired … which they mention in the clip you posted. Did you even watch it?!

      Seriously, if you want to help the Democrats, stop bad mouthing the party. I'd think as a gay American, you'd know better, and realize how critical it is to get a Dem in the White House.

      You should be ashamed of yourself for fueling this kind of fire. You're no better than the Sean Hannitys and Rush Limbaughs of the world.

      I love watching all of Obama's sheeple mindlessly making excuses for him. OK, the guy retired a few years back and Obama has "distanced" himself from these remarks but that's only because he is running for office. He didn't distance himself when they were said and that would have been easy - just go to another church! Instead, he stayed and named this clown and his mentor and allowed his children to be exposed to this garbage. What does that say about him? I don't care if he claims he disagrees with the statements now - that's only for the idiots who are hypnotized by his media image. If Clinton or McCain had atteneded a white suprmacist's church for a decade, do you think saying "I disagreed with those statements" would help them? It only works for the morons who have put any critical thinking on hold and revel in some "feel good" charisma while Rome burns.

      Give me a break. Did you even LISTEN to what this man is saying? Sure, he is a bit histrionic, and I would never say he has the most sophisticated understanding of American history or politics….However, in his "God Damn America" Speech, what he is saying is true, our treatment of marginal people has been ABDOMINABLE. And yes, fuck America for that. But that doesn't make some one Un-American. GROW UP.

      I think by now, we've ALL dealt with racism including white people. When I was at the airport, a black woman was trying to find a reason to hit me because I supposedly looked at her funny.

      I hope Obama supporters realize that Obama adores this guy, which probably makes him a racist, self-righteous, black supremest too.

      GO HILLARY!!
