Obama Denounces His Pastor's Comments


Sen. Barack Obama, writing on theHUFFINGTON POST, addressed theCONTROVERSIAL REMARKS by his former pastor, Jeremiah Wright.

“I vehemently disagree and strongly condemn the statements that have been the subject of this controversy,” Obama writes. “I categorically denounce any statement that disparages our great country or serves to divide us from our allies. I also believe that words that degrade individuals have no place in our public dialogue, whether it’s on the campaign stump or in the pulpit. In sum, I reject outright the statements by Rev. Wright that are at issue.”
