      Seriously, what kind of idiot thinks the electorate didn't know who Reverend Wright was at the time of the election?

        I knew, but I was skeptical - I looked for the whole video, and found it easily, and saw the major difference between what was being reported and what was real - the minutes before and after the part of the sermon that identified it AS A QUOTE, as well as who was being quoted.

      Beck disagrees, it is Obama's mom that could have brought him down. Or Roger Ailes and his paid followers.

      Tucker, good luck with this line of attack in the upcoming 2008 presidential election.

      Boy. Even without a bow tie Tucker is still an idiot.

      The head of a national home-grown terrorist group and a reverend in Chicago are the same? Please.

      Clearly it's not the style of tie that's the problem. Loosen your tie, Tuck--you're cutting off the blood supply to what I'll laughingly call your brain.

      Right, Tuck -- just as Michelle's "proud" comments, Tony Rezko, Bill Ayres, and Rod Blagojevich were ALSO supposed to be the "one story" that could have destroyed Obama . . .

      Oh, rrrrrrright. The Rev. Wright freakout wasn't effective because it just didn't enough get play in the media. Seems the right-wing professional liars at Fox can always depend on the amnesia and ineptitude of its most devoted audience members.

      Obama consorting with Wright is tantamount to a while candidate consorting with the Grand Dragon of the KKK??? Interesting when you consider that the right-wing doesn't seem to have much of a problem with the author of the Arizona's infamous immigration law, state senator Russell Pearce, who peddled neo-Nazi propaganda and is pals with a prominent Arizona neo-Nazi.

        Now, he's getting a bit of bite back, with Salon having registered TuckerCarlson.net, and awarding e-mail addresses.

      I keep hearing these idiots talking about Obama set there in that church for 20 years listening to Rev. Wright saying radical things.ok they found about a half a dozen things he said that was radical but the thing is there is thousands of hours of tape of this man preaching going back for years.where is the other crazy stuff he was saying when Obama was in his church?we know one of the tapes went back 7 years.all they found was 6 sermons with radical things he said?..the Rethugs want you to think everytime Rev.Wright preached he said anti-American stuff.he did not.most of his sermons could have been preached in any church in this country.

      Really and seriously? Because, the Wright story was ALL OVER THE PLACE before the election, during the election, and after the election, and still today we hear about it.

      I just wonder if "The Media" is going to now take a look at all the "leaked" video of what have been, to me anyway, clear targets of the "wrong" (can't bring myself to call them by their claimed direction, due to its other meaning), and perhaps - just perhaps, even if very highly unlikely - either put 1 and 1 together to get one and not 8 billion (bitwise anding) or *gasp* expose the stuff being spewed as worse than toxic waste with a 2.4 billion year half-life leaching into our nations crops.
