It has been a fascinating experience to blog.  My second and probably last time.  I was a fan of yours for two years and open minded to any of the democratic candidates (Biden in particular).  After watching your site and readers,
 I realize their is a lot of hatred out there. 
The war is a great concern and probably my biggest reason for getting out there and trying to find an alternative to the current lack of leadership.  Unfortunately, with your support of hate speech from a pulpit and your refusal to recognize that Wright is a bigger issue than you wish to address, I now know that there is a dishonest bent to your reporting that quite frankly scares me to death. 
News is news, would you allow your children to hear that hate, should that church pay taxes (as I feel Hagee, Dobson and the deceased Falwell's churches should) when he is politically active?  Would you choose to go there regularly?  Would you seek counsel from someone full of so much hate?
As much as I despise the war, I cannot trust Obama.  So as all of you Obama worshippers have fun with your attacks on Hillary, watch McCann get the vote and the vote of many of my centrist friends despite our hatred of the war. 
The democratic party is the only party that could be given an election and select a ticking time bomb as your nominee.  Your words will help this occur.  But words will not be enough in a general election.  In middle america, we love our country and while we do not like the war, we do not want a leader who will regularly attend a church (with children in tow) who seeks words of hatred.
 Rejoice in your attacks on Hillary and on your way to the Obama altar you will see losses that repeat the absurd losses by the past eight years.  Hillary did not deserve this from you.  Shame on you and I believe you will not receive a lot of responses as you noted not because people do not care but because you are most disappointing.

Shame on me? Shame on me?

Shame on you and your passive racism. Shame on you and your ignorance. Shame on you and the fact you have not actually researched what all of Wright's sermons are about. Shame on you you have not taken the time to look at some other sermons. Shame on you and the fact you put a handful of sermons as the basis for this church. Shame on you that you are afraid of a black man as President. Shame on you that you do not know that Hillary is a member of "The Family", an ultraconservative worship group.

Shame on you.

I wonder if you saw just the out-of-context snippets put out by the press. If you are truly trying to find "an alternative to the current lack of leadership" you can take a look at the video posted at the link and view it full length:

What the Media forgot to mention is that Wright was quoting words said by another person.
