Elizabeth Payne, 37, said she had a steamy sexual affair with the controversial, racially divisive man of the cloth while she was an executive assistant at a church headed by a popular Wright protégé.

When word of the unholy alliance got out, Payne's husband dumped her, and she was canned from the plum job at Friendship-West Baptist Church, she told The Post.
Who cares?

I look at the process as a court case, each candidate enter evidence into the case, once they do, its open game. Plains family for example. She brought them on stage, she announced her daughters pregnancy, its open game.

Obama has used his church as a majort influence in his life. He has noted his pastor as a spiritual influence and good family friend.

Secondly, one of Obama's key points for his candidacy is "Judgement"
This is based on his one vote against the Iraq war.

So, Wright and Obama's judgement are open game.
If Obamas judgement is so good, even from a political, if not personal stance, how could he be involved with a racist, extremist pastor who is also cheating on his wife? Just like in a court case, it raises doubts about Obama's judgement.

How well will he just Iran's leaders? Russias?

So Obama's libel for something he had nothing to do with and knew nothing about?

Wow, those are pretty tough standards to live by.

I heard Palin's first dude is a world champion snow machine racer.

Are you sure he's her first dude? National Enquirer begs to differ

Here's the ad the McCain campaign released over the lipstick remark.



This is pretty pathetic stuff, and pretty dishonest. Talk about taking things out of context...
