Inconsistency Or Blatant Hypocrisy?

This is what Barack Obama had to say about a white guy joking that a mostly black female basketball team looked like "a bunch of nappy-headed ho's."

Compare with his defense of Rev. Jeremiah Wright's racist and anti-American sermons that "could be considered controversial."

I can't say for sure, but I just imagine that his daughters would be less harmed by what an idiot like Don Imus said than by the sermons of a fanatic religious leader like Jeremiah Wright.

A Case for Reviewing the Tax-Exempt Status of "Churches"

In a telephone interview with USNews & World Report, James Dobson made some disparaging remarks about Fred Thompson's possible run for President. The article will give you a glimpse of Dobson's holier-than-thou attitude.

"Everyone knows he's conservative and has come out strongly for the things that the pro-family movement stands for," Dobson said of Thompson. "[But] I don't think he's a Christian; at least that's my impression," Dobson added, saying that such an impression would make it difficult for Thompson to connect with the Republican Party's conservative Christian base and win the GOP nomination.

I don't much care for Dobson or others who flaunt their "moral superiority," so if he doesn't like the idea of Thompson as President.......well, all the more reason to vote for Fred.

Muslims Offended -- what, again?

The Christians are at it again. An AP story in today's Star-Telegram reports on a Christian campaign urging Muslims to convert to Christianity.

According to the story, "Many Muslims and others consider campaigns like these offensive in both their timing and their goals." If I were a Muslim, I wouldn't be offended. I would just say "Thanks, but no thanks, you stupid infidel."

That was, in fact, my reaction to the recent admonition by Al-Qaida for all infidels to "convert to Islam or die." But I don't recall reading (in any newspaper) about any Christians who were offended by that statement. Maybe the Christians, rather than trying to convert people to Christianity, could simply teach Muslims some lessons in civility.

Lord knows, somebody should.
