    Why was the Good News such bad news to me?

    It didn't work. I did seek and did not find. I spent years seeking "salvation" from hell and never, and I mean never got a moment's peace or relief. Why did God reject my desire for salvation, a salvation I was told was "free"?

    58% Say Obama Denounced Wright for Political Convenience, not Outrage

    Of course he did it for expediency. He's a politician, no worse than any other. One more thing; its silly to count Obama out. There is still six months left in the election in a nation that has a notoriously short memory. This will pass.

    Who is running Obama's campaign? Did they not know that in the age of the internet that the Rev's words would be hung out for all to see? Obama should have distanced himself from Wright from the get-go.
