Long overdue! This should have been done months ago.

Interesting...I wonder if his wife was making him look bad he'd divorce her....or his kids acted up, he'd disown them?

Another example of his desperation and shallowness. He said he did it for the good of his church congregation since they are under scrutiny because of him. Ha! We all know the real reason and it's all about the votes.

If I didn't think she was a greater threat to McCain I'd be cheering Clinton on in an attempt to overthrow Obama for the nomination.

What's sad is that his disassociation is obviously because it's bad publicity; however, by the reaction of the congregation to the other minister (as the Nightly news showed the clip) it's pretty clear that this type of rhetoric is not new or unfamiliar to them. This means that as a member of this church for 20 years, Obama has been fine with this type of atmosphere...until now.
