When truth becomes 'inappropriate' for campaign debate
The Washington DC Examiner Newspaper, The Examiner Apr 27, 2008 12:24 PM (589 days ago)WASHINGTON Aside from Hillary Clinton's comfortable win over Barack Obama in Tuesday's Democratic presidential primary, most of the Sturm und Drang of the week just past was incited by a television spot produced for the North Carolina GOP.

Jeremiah Wright's church for 20 years, Wright said the Almighty should damn America and, because of his apparent comfort with his pastor's extremism, Obama is 'too extreme for North Carolina.' The first two points are matters of undisputed public record. And one need not agree with the third point in order to concede that it is an imminently reasonable assertion, given the moderately conservative political preferences North Carolinians have expressed at the polls in recent decades.
