Apparently, Barack Obama’s pastor, Rev. Jeremiah Wright, was quote-mined for controversial remarks, and he had a few choice ones, and, of course, conservatives such as Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, and Bill O’Reilly are calling for Obama’s head, or at least for him to unequivocally condemn Wright.

The article reveals the conservatives’ hypocrisy by showing videos where Republican politicians / candidates accepted endorsements from much worse, and nobody called for them to distance themselves from the endorsers. We’re talking about people who have made anti-Semitic comments, blamed 9/11 and Katrina on “teh gay”, and so on… and yet endorse candidates and advise presidents. I think this should be widely known — ignorance and obscurity only helps those vermin to thrive.
