Obama appears to be just like the rest

Obama first stated that he never personally heard his pastor say the racist and anti-American remarks, but now he "changed" his story and admitted he was there to witness some of them.

Obama first stated that he had only slight contact with Tony Rezko, until recently, when he "changed" his story about the purchase of his house and the amount of money Rezko donated to his campaign.

Obama should ask himself what his white mother, who raised him because his black father took off when Obama was 2 years old, would think if she heard the racist and anti-American remarks.

Would he take his mother to hear these remarks if she were alive? If not, he should have walked out of this church when he heard them.

Obama should ask his 6- and 9-year-old daughters what they think about these remarks, because he stated Don Imus should be fired for his remarks due to how it would affect children like his daughters.

Obama in his many speeches talks about "change" and decision-making and stated that they are not just words. We now know that his words and decision making are questionable at best.

I do not believe that Obama's mother and God approve of his association with this racist and anti-American minister and church.

I have "changed" my opinion of Obama. Not because of his race, but because of his actions and his dishonesty. It saddens me because, like others, I thought he was a uniter, not a divider.
