In an interview scheduled to air on TV today (03/29/08) Senator Obama said," Had the reverend not retired and had he not acknowledged that what he had said had deeply offended people and were inappropriate and mischaracterized what I believe is the greatness of this country, for all its flaws, then I wouldn't have felt comfortable staying there at the church." Soap Box Ravings believes that Senator Obama's ability to instantly realize his error and modify his behavior makes him the perfect Presidential candidate to answer the phone at 0300.
On 03/25/08 Senator Obama made his famous race speak and now only three days later (not then but three days later) he says had his Pastor NOT retired and had his Pastor NOT acknowledged he offended people, than he, Senator Obama WOULD have left his church. I think this country really deserves Senator Obama.
Talk about double speak and hind sight. At least Senator Clinton (yuk) has the guts to admit she did and still would vote to enter Iraq knowing the information she had at the time.
