Yes, we can.

Re Trent Lott: I assume you mean his suggestion that if Strom Thurmond had been elected president in 1948, the country could have avoided a lot of problems.

I don't know what Wright said about Jews and Italians. I think most of the discussion has focused on what he said about America. As far as John McCain's church goes, since he apparently now goes to a baptist church, I'm guessing they have a few things to say about gays. In general, my expectations about what is said in houses of worship is pretty low.

Before switching affiliation to a baptist church, McCain belonged to Bill Clinton's church, the Church of Flagrant Infidelity. Interestingly, when I checked the Wikipedia page to see what church he went to, I could no longer find the discussion of all the cheating he did on his first wife.
