[...] Wright, Donklephant hasnâ€™t said a lot with which youâ€™re likely to agree. Justin Gardner has defended and praised Obama. Iâ€™ve more-or-less given Obama a pass as Iâ€™ve tried to grasp the complexities [...]

I might be biased, but I think that my assessment and analysis of Barack’s speech is better than Michael’s. Although my blog is relatively new, I have gone for quality over quantity. There are over a dozen thought provoking posts at http://progthinker.blogspot.com. Several are about Barack Obama.

I put a lot of time an energy into my posts and I think it shows. My blog might be new, but I do much more than simply quote other articles and give one or two lines of opinion on them. I seek truth. I give facts and have links to back them up. I also offer my opinion. Since truth regarding people is sometimes more perceptual than objective, some people might not agree with my truth. However, that doesn’t make it any less valid.

In closing, I urge you to read the posts in my blog. Whether you agree or not, I think you’ll find them thought provoking.

Yet Obama still refuses to release his attendance dates so that question could actually be settled, doesn't he? ;-) Even Brian Ross at ABC isn't buying it. Instead he sees Wright as Obama's Spiritual Rezko.

Good words, Justin. Michael didn’t use to be this way. He has been getting on my nerves for a while now. I am not a big fan of Obama, but he is just unfair to the Senator.

Well put Justin, I’ve noticed these repeated contentions too, that Obama is now admitting what he denied. And at this point, those contentions are false. It is just as you have said regarding the youtube sermons. Unless we see actual evidence that suggests otherwise. Which we haven’t.

MVdG has been embarassing himself for weeks. Combine that with their balky interface and there’s little reason to go there these days so long as MVdG is dominating the posting.

You and Alan have been doing a much better job of covering political news these days.
