[T]he most honest speech on race in America in my adult lifetime. It is a speech we have all been waiting for for a generation.ÂÂ
Ewwww. A little too excitable.C’mon, what’s this going to go down in history as? The Ashley Speech? Gettyfuckinsburg it ain’t.
New discovery might lead to the creation of a more perfect onion.
Lowry is calling this “The Throw Your Grandmother Under the Bus” Speech.  I thought Billy Crystal was great in that movie!
Not to be outdone, Todd Gitlin:
The Reverend Jeremiah Wright, he said, had spoken in an “incendiary” manner, but Obama offered himself as the man who rises from flames and invites you to rise from your own. He took a grievous embarrassment and moved his lesson to the plane of prophecy. Talk about hope; talk about audacity. Tears came to my eyes. I don’t think I’m especially hard-hearted, but I cannot think of another time when the speech of a presidential candidate watered me up.
Yeah. I don’t think so, either.
He’s one of the only true conservatives left. It’s a shame he’s distracted by shiny, sparkly objects.
Andrew Sullivan is an adult?
Wait wait. How dare you cherrypick?
“this searing, nuanced, gut-wrenching, loyal, and deeply, deeply Christian speech…”
Hi. Awakened at 3 a.m. with the chills and various other symptoms of stomach flu or food poisoning. However, that means I stayed home and listened to the speech. Will have something this afternoon.
Great, Karl.
Sorry you’re ill. You mean that listening to Obama’s speech didn’t heal you?
We have to get Andrew on the American Idol judges panel.
Here’s an honest speech: guess what? while most Americans don’t give a crap about color, some still do. Now, in order to understand who is who, all one need do is look to see who profits from race-baiting. All people, by their very nature, are tainted by racist feelings. The Black and White and Yellow alike have demonstrated that, by and large, when push comes to shove, they prefer hanging out with others who look and act and speak and think like them. Diversity means that we recognize that marginal racism will always exist. It just is. There are racists of all colors. None are immune. None have the higher ground. What one race does to another has more to do with the technology and wherewithal they have to impress their aspects on others. That this nation has come to a point where the vast majority are repulsed by the potentiality of bringing the full weight of their wherewithal on another skin color means we have entered a new stage in human development. Perfect? No. Repeated outside of the Western world? No. Now suck my ball. Deal with it.
I am just glad that Ashley did not blame her mother’s cancer on welfare, illegal immigration, or racism.
You racist fucks.
You Protein Wisdom jagoffs would have liked the speech better better if he’d threatened to slap someone in the face with his cock.
McCain is very old – is that a gay joke?
This Baracky really is one disingeuous little shit. This little act that he did not know about any of Wright’s outlandish positions is laughable. Especially in light of the fact that he knew a long time ago that he might have to distance himself from Wright. Why?
Sad thing is that he would be able to broker an honest conversation on race. ‘cept he doesn’t want to do that. He just wants everyone that criticizes him to be branded racists, and he will be above the fray, absolving them of their sins.
Dishonest little crapweasel.
Is there something wrong with that, McCain is very old?
When Sullivan’s computer boots up, it has a video of Obama saying “I love the way. you. turn. me. on.”
Yup, had he said he would give someone a mushroom bruise, at least we could point to one single solitary specific concrete point he made. As is, it was sad puppies, not so fluffy bunnies, and white clouds – but he can fix that.
I want to know what Juan Williams thought of the speech. He’s been pounding Obama like he was a sophmore’s wiener on prom night.
McCain is Very Old is a former lover of mine – Lowry, Fred fredjr@lowryinc.com 967 East Pioneer Road Draper, UT 84020 US 8015018808
That’s not a real address, of course, right?
no, silly
I think excitable Andy just had an obasm.
I bet the excitable one wrote this piece in full cheerleader regalia.
no, silly
Thank God, because he would be my next door neighbor.
ProgLibTive Andrew says:
But … but … but … is he proud??? I think not, Michelle!
You Protein Wisdom jagoffs would have liked the speech better better if he’d threatened to slap someone in the face with his cock.
Oooh, me first! Me first!… waittaminute. I didn’t even see the speech.
I just thought Jeff was back.
Shit.

All I can say is…. that speech was freakin strong… Talk about putting a spit shine on a turd.. This silvertongued devil (said with a smile..) has turned this whole Pastor Wright fiasco into a win for himself…
C’mon, what’s this going to go down in history as?
the stop-the-loop speech.
an if it doesnt, there will be another speech.

The Ourbouros – My irony meter is on the fritz. Were I to assume that you were cracking a joke there, would I be right?

I will give him credit. He can talk, and talk, and talk, and never say anything. It is like eating at a Chinese buffet. You can sit there for hours, get full, and an hour later, your body realizes that was a pile o’crap, purges itself, and you are left hungry again.
Why does Barry O hate Chinese buffets?
nishi – find anything new to lie about today?
The Ashley Speech?
His “civil Wright” speech?
I think he should just say it was like a 20 year aversion therapy session, after listening to all that kil witey! screaming he has suddenly learned to embrace his white half and is at peace with the world. Of course, it would be more believable if he started attending a church with a sane philosophy.
Hi…to everyone interested to read and share my opinion(deleters).
Obasm. Ya, but did he figure out that the falling dream thing was really luciferian females trading males bodies? Is an obasm normal or was it created by females and lucifer(bodies)? Why can’t women have obasms(falling, seeing obasm) and, if males are having spontaneous obasms, then is luciferian females again or a natural thing or are they ‘making’ the obasm again and the body? like, if I’m seeing her during the obasm, did she plan that with lucifer or is seeing just wrong? Are all the people taken over by an Obasm luciferian hitler type of thing when they hear him speak?
Andrew have an obasm, see things, hear things or is he just plain scared of the pain?
Why do people hate each other? Lucifer worship competition. Is it better to stare through a head and hear or see things and hear things with eyes closed? Can the luciferian see the future? Use a human in the future? Use a luciferian space alien in another galaxy? Have they figured out that earth is supposed to be heaven, but instead a play place for luciferians, hell. So, if you offer to end the play place, do they say no they want to play in hell and do the clones waiting to be born by females rather than future cloning rise to protest? Have they figured out they don’t ‘matter’ and that all making is really an I’m the device of satan that collects all things in existence to end them? Do they cease? Does the device cease all things?
Obama is offering us what we already had with Kennedy , etc. He’s also going to give us what Bill gave us.
BCeD, I’d like to introduce you to Nishi. Nishi, this is BCeD.
Poor granny, reduced to being mentioned in the same breath as a vein-popping, conspiracy-peddling race huckster all because of a single mention of a fear of being mugged by a black fellow. And Baracky loves them both equally.
That’s what I call judgement.
Obama is offering us what we already had with Kennedy , etc.
Affairs with Marilyn Monroe? Cool.
He’s also going to give us what Bill gave us.
Herpes? NOT cool.
Ah Yes, Harvard’s SDS chapter head, who didn’t follow his own logic, into

Does anyone else get the feeling Excitable Andy would bob Barry’s knob, if only Chris “Tingling Legs” Matthews weren’t in the way?

Sooner or later, most people will tire of his clever dodging and weaving, and realize he just full of it.
Oh I have no doubt that the left loved his speech and ate it up like catfish. The middle American and the right leaning folks who were kind of thinking about Obama as a vote because it might help America to have a black guy in the oval office and he seemed like a decent fellow who eschewed the usual race card? Not so much.
I like catfish, too.
Don’t ya love people with no resistance to oratory?
I blame “modern education”…
