"I have already condemned, in unequivocal terms, the statements of Reverend Wright that have caused such controversy. For some, nagging questions remain. Did I know him to be an occasionally fierce critic of American domestic and foreign policy? Of course. Did I ever hear him make remarks that could be considered controversial while I sat in church? Yes. Did I strongly disagree with many of his political views? Absolutely – just as I’m sure many of you have heard remarks from your pastors, priests, or rabbis with which you strongly disagreed. "
Maybe, but has anyone heard their priest or rabbis claim America is responsible for aids, was responsible for 9/11 or say "God damn America". It's one thing to disagree with your religious mentor on "political views" but these aren't political views - they're anti American views.
