its funny from my side of the fence Spence. I bet many many lefties would agree with you, but I remember when Don Imus made a crude joke and was dragged by liberals across the media as a raving racist. Yet the guy built a ranch for poor kids with cancer, a high percentage african american and he and his wife devoted their lives to this. yet that was not important to the talking heads. They were more upset that a shock jock, comedian made a deragatory racial slur. the guy was fired, lost his network and sponsorships. I believe Rev. Wright continued chugging along?
