Sir...I would have less respect for Obama if he completely disavowed the man based solely on his words and at the exclusion of the 20+ years of service and commitment to the minority community in Chicago.

Just as I have loss respect for McCain (who I would not have voted for any way because of policy positions) for his hypocrisy regarding Robertson, Hagee, et al....calling them "agents of hate" in 2000 when trying to appear tolerant to the less self-righteous side of the GOP..then actively seeking their endorsements eight years later to secure the conservative GOP base.
