I disagree.
I am no Obama fan, but I respect the fact that he condemned the questionable statements made by the pastor, but didn't go as far as condemning the man. I think that showed a lot of character.
I am sure we ALL have had influencial people in our lives that have made comments that we don't agree with or that we down right disliked. I'm a good Catholic, but I don't always agree with everything my priest says or everything the Pope says.
As a Republican, I was John Mccain in office. But if I had to choose a democrat, it would certainly be Obama over Hillary. And this whole issue would make that decision much easier for me.
