I deliberately...
Write out of context, because my foot is is in my mouth!

You know, seriously......this whole thing is becoming so ludicrous and his supporters have so much at stake in being loyal to him (seem to, anyway) that this has the potential of becoming uncomfortably racially divisive......and that is really sad; his bungling hypocricy and misreading of white voters with this is showing he simply does not have the political maturity for the job now.....all questions of his ethics/readiness otherwise/etc. aside.  Plus, one gets the strong feeling he only speaks for one color "minority".....I don't think he really gets the big picture in a lot of areas.....he's good at saying what he thinks people want to hear, but I haven't seen solid results from him in any decernible pattern that is remotely noteworthy, in his voting record or his reactions to the issues that have come up in the race....he's a good "photo op", gloss and no substance and a lot of retouching.........

Love it!
I've never thought of using this line, I've always backed out of my 'oooop-ez' with, so sorry, I was wrong, but now I have a new thing to pull outta my empty bag, 'you must have taken me out of context.'! Love it

sshhhhh....

The only way what Jeremiah Wright said could have been taken out of context is if we missed the part at the beginning where he said, "Everything I'm about to say from here on is going to be absolute, unmitigated, and demonstrable bullsh*t."

You just watch...the Obamanots are probably scrambling to find a video where he says that. No wait - they did. Too bad they sent it in to America's Funniest Home Videos and mistakenly kept the one where he said the US imported AIDS to kill black people instead.

Putting any political inclination aside, you have to ask yourself, if the other presidential canididates were caught up in this appalling situation, don't you think they be hung by the heels now for high treason?
