    Did rev wrights bigoted remarks make any difference for obama?

    I dont see anything controversial in Cruz's fathers remarks. It seems rather obvious to me.

    I would say so. Certainly there were folks who claimed that after the perceived racist remarks from Wright were made public their likelihood in voting for Obama changed.

    Yes, it would appear there was a difference. That was your original premise. See below.

    So I an not sure what your argument is at this point. Clearly, as I have stated in the OP, it is my opinion that this continued rhetoric of someone so close to Cruz can have adverse political consequences, and there is certainly a precedent for that in regards to Obama with Wright.

    Apparently, Cruz thinks Catholic priests are atheists.

    Maybe it shows hypocrisy by Rightwingers who want to link Obama to his father....but try to get distance between Ted and his father's wacko comments?

    Well, Palin is considering calling out the Pope for being a lib'rul, doncha know?

    Again, the Right will go off on their tangents and dodges....but I'll bet...right now?


    There's a senior aide to Ted Cruz telling him, "Ted, I know you love him...but you have GOT to shut that old man of yours up...fast! Or kiss 2016 goodbye!"

    Cruz is not my guy. I am not a republican. Both fathers have said some wild (*)(*)(*)(*)...........something they have in common.

    I doubt that, but the teachers in the teachers union rape far more kids than catholic priests.

    >>>MOD EDIT: INSULT<<< In the US alone the John Jay Report, which BTW was commissioned and funded by the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, found almost 11,000 allegations against 4,400 priests, who engaged in sexual abuse of minors from 1950 to 2002. >>>MOD EDIT: INSULT<<<

    Allegations =/ proof ... Lol . But lets just say that 100% of them are true , and 4400 Christians molested children ...

    The world has 2 billion Christians . 4,400 / 2,000,000,000 = 2.2 x 10^-6 ...

    Believing your actions are right because favors you can lead to social decay too.

    The middle east and medieval Europe should be proof enough of that.

    Any actual evidence of that?

    Even if you could provide statistics, they would likely be completely off because the catholic church loves to play world wide shell games with pedo priests and preform cover ups of such incidents.

    Hard to argue with that stance. Democrats have repeatedly conned Blacks into voting for them, only to do harm to them after being elected. Obama is the most recent glaring example.
