From today's SouthtownStar's Always Right column . . .
"We can do that. ... But if we do, I can tell you that in the next election, we'll be talking about some other distraction. And then another one. And then another one. And nothing will change."
It's true, Sen. Obama, racial strife will not cease if we as a nation don't directly face destructive teachings, such as those emanating from mosques and churches, including the one with which you so proudly identify. While Wright has every right to preach as he wishes in his pulpit, we have a responsibility as fellow citizens to challenge irresponsible demagoguery.
Our self-righteous junior senator should be reminded that over the past 130 years, the United States' laws and regulations slowly have been corrected to ultimately rid our nation of racial discrimination.
Change has taken place in America already, senator. Despite what Trinity teaches, there are no captors or captives. There are only good folks who desire to move ahead toward a better day for all who follow - no matter their color, race or creed.
