I have been following the controversy on Barack Obama and his pastor and spiritual advisor of 20 years, Jeremiah Wright, who Obama now apparently claims complete ignorance of. The website Newsmax reported that Obama was actually at a sermon that he previously claimed he was unaware of. The Obama campaign struck back, with convincing evidence that he was elsewhere, he was speaking at a convention of "La Raza" The Race, the controversial (to say the least) Hispanic identity group.
Well, OK, the guy running as the person to bring all the races together wasn't at a speech preaching black power, he was at a group that promotes Hispanic power. Why does that not make me feel any better?
“Writing a book is an adventure. To begin with it is a toy and an amusement. Then it becomes a mistress, then it becomes a master, then it becomes a tyrant. The last phase is that just as you are about to be reconciled to your servitude, you kill the monster and fling him to the public.” -Winston Churchill-
