Personman - Latest Comments on Palin's Pastor Problem http://personman.com/?disp=comments en-US http://backend.userland.com/rss 60 dan [Member] in response to: Palin's Pastor Problem Mon, 22 Sep 2008 04:38:53 +0000 [Member] c81678@http://personman.com/ <p>If Palin would come out and deny that witches exist and condemn Muthee&#8217;s witch hunts, I would totally agree. I don&#8217;t think it was inappropriate to ask Obama to reject what Wright said. Once that happened, people should have dropped the subject. But I&#8217;m not sure that Palin doesn&#8217;t agree with Muthee. That&#8217;s what may make this a very different case.</p> If Palin would come out and deny that witches exist and condemn Muthee’s witch hunts, I would totally agree.
