Politics on YouTube: The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly |
|
This topic came to our attention when hearing about a staff member of Republican candidate John McCain being fired for a deplorable video he made and posted on YouTube, details. That video is the last one posted here.All this week has been a concerted effort to link Barack Obama to words spoken by the pastor of his Christian church. (Note: the previous smear campaign was that he was a Muslim; now he's a member of a hate-preaching Christian church and, too, somehow an anti-Semite!?) This week we'll let the videos (mainly) speak for themselves.

Politics on YouTube: The GoodThis video the 4th most watched of all time on You Tube

Politics on YouTube: The BadPerhaps 'tasteless,' but NOT mean.

Politics on YouTube: The UglyMean-spirited, disgusting, unfounded and poorly made video intended to unjustly wound and hurt. This is an attempt to smear someone by association, flashing pictures of Obama before and after unattractive and radical pictures of his retiried pastor, or firebrand radical from the Sixties, Malcom X, or the black athletics giving the Black' Power to the People,'salute after their victory at the 1968 Olympics But in any way is this type of radical defiance or the words of Malcom X the spirit or ideas of Barack Obama? Are the words and ideas that come out of Barack Obama's mouth the same as his previous pastor? Are we to be held accountable for the words and ideas of everybody else we know? No. Yet it was perhaps all the more amazing, therefore, when he refused to meet mainstream media demands and 'disassociate himself entirely,' from his pastor or these ideas; while at the same time condemning words or ideas that appeal to hate. Why? Because anger at oppression is a reality. But it is not Barack Obama's reality, his spirit, nor his message. Quite the contrary. He asks us to move forward, to go beyond the past.

Bonus Photo: It seems Bill Clinton, while President, also met and knew this pastor. So Bill Clinton also espouses such firebrand talk?
