Wow. Not only did Barack deliver one hell of a speech in response to his pastor's hateful rhetoric, but apparently he wrote the whole damn thing himself. That just doesn't happen in politics anymore. At all. Not since Nixon in 1969, according to the Library of Congress. This was probably his most important speech in the campaign to date, and he didn't have someone write it, he didn't have someone help him write it, he didn't have a team of publicist scour it for damage control. He sat down and spent 2 days writing it himself.

There's something that would make me admire my President (and yes, I admire it in Nixon).

If it's true, I do indeed admire it. But simply having the press report that he wrote the speech himself, does not make it true. Of course, until that's demonstrated otherwise, I believe he did write it ... and wrote a damn good one.

In fact, I think this pastor fracus may have turned out to be the best thing that's happened to the Obama campaign, as I think the speech was the most substantive thing Obama's ever said.

Hopefully that link works. It's the speech.

Okay, I'm only about a third of the way through this speech, but I have to say if he wrote this himself, he's an eloquent fvcking genius.

Agreed. The fracus was the subject of To The Point today on KCRW. There were people trying to make Obama look bad for attending the church, but those people did an awful job of it. On the other side, those who supported Obama made some excellent points. It's worth listening to.
