23. :::knocks on Monitor:::
Rev. Wright isnt running for President of the United States. And correct me if I am wrong, but people have the right of free speech, even in the pulpit.

I dont see why this matters. Obama has denounced the statements. distanced himself from them. Obama didnt say them, His pastor did.

Should I hold Hillary to the same standards and refuse to vote for her because of what Ferraro said? Hillary didnt say it, Ferraro did. Oh I know, Hillary had made a fine speech, and apologized. But why should I accept that?
