Obama to Hillary: “Don’t Tell Me Words Don’t Matter”

We all remember the stink that erupted when Hillary essentially said that, yes, Dr. Martin Luther King’s speeches mattered but it took an LBJ to get the Civil Rights Act passed. Part of the reason why we remember it so well is because Sen. Obama replied by saying this:

“Don’t tell me that words don’t matter.”

NHale Media just put together a devastating YouTube video based on that theme. Here’s that video:

Barack Obama would be wise to learn the lesson that actions matter, too. Frankly it would’ve been nice to see Sen. Obama stand up to Pastor J-Wright for the saying the inflammatory, hate-filled words he said.

It’s difficult to respect someone who won’t stand up to that type of hatefulness until it’s a politically necessity. That isn’t a portrait in courage. That’s a portrait in political damage control. You’ll forgive me if I don’t feel particularly inspired by that.

Obama is as crooked as his past, drug dealing, gay in his youth,bombing with his gang,going to a church that blasts whites and our country, when our white folks are the ones that fought and died for the blacks to free them from slavery when in fact Africa is the ones that sold blacks to our country

Obama has himsef on a fine line. If he really stood up to Wright’s political sermons, he could gain some support among whites in his own party that would just as soon not see Hillary as President, but he would do so at great risk of loosing much of his support among blacks. If he doesnt, he makes himself look weak among any principles support from anybody, and all the coddling and coochy-coo treatment from the press wont do him a whit of good.

You couldn’t get better hubris than that in an Italian opera.

Obama has distanced himself from this sermon because he disagrees with it, for both political and personal reasons. He’s said so more than enough times. Why would Obama stand up for pastor Wright if he didn’t agree with him? And do you really expect him to believe and follow 100% of everything his pastor says?

If that’s the most controversy that video can dig up, including the pledge of allegiance and pin wearing bullshit, then Obama’s got this election made.

Oh, and don’t forget that Barack Hussein Obama is a Muslin, pearl elliot.

I suppose Im lucky I’ve never had a pastor that I knew almost half my lifetime go as ballistic as Wright has over politics.

It may not hurt him with everybody, but the fact hat he’s lost some percentage points support wise indicates his armor has been chinked nonetheless, and he still has to be a lot more substantial than flowery before he gains credibility with more than a few.
All Ive seen so far is a lot of glittering generalities.

Obama also has very poor judgement. Yesterday and the few days over the weekend were the first time I have ever seen him give speeches in front of the American Flag. Oh and don’t forget, he is going to talk to terrorist, but I wonder which group he means. Will it be Al Quaeda in Pakistan, the Phillipines or Africa” It might even be those in Germany or England.
