ON SECOND THOUGHT

The latest YouTube video in Obamaland was released today. This time it features an ANTI-Barack preacher railing about the "Obama Girl" video and, well, "chest sizes". Calls the Senator a "pimp", then it gets worse.  Interesting how it shows up on the internet the day after Obama's big speech, which is being treated like Moses-with-the-tablets by people like Chris Matthews.  

Conventional wisdom may have it that the Clinton camp found this clip and helped make it available. But: On second thought, knowing things in politics are rarely as they seem, what if Obama's friends did this? Why?  To increase perception that such ranting is simply "cultural", that all black churches are as off the chart in rhetoric and theology. Could be.  It's no more tasteful than Rev. Wright's sermons we've seen so far. And the Obama fans want the dbeate to shift back to "We are the ones we've been waiting for"... not this distasteful "racial stuff". It all points out this fact: Sen. Obama should hold a press conference and answer those festering questions out there.
