Beecher Frasier Speaks On Barack Obama’s Connection To Terror, City Paper Reacts

By Kleinheider Posted on June 13, 2008 at 3:06 pm

No one in their right mind, including me, believes Senator Obama has ties to terrorism. It is truly ridiculous for anyone to try to make hay out of these comments.”

The City Paper’s Brewer and Rodgers react:

City Paper reporter Rodgers and editor Brewer are adamant. Brewer said he and Rodgers “stand by this story,” certain that the tone of Frasier’s comments was portrayed accurately.

Beecher frazier worked diligently for Harold Fords senate bid. I personally have sought his help when trying to get healthcare benefits for minorities in my community and he has always given no less than 100% to that goal.
The incident regarding Sen. Obama was simply a poor choice of words, similarly to Michelle Obamas ,”for the first time…..proud American” statement.To take his statement and use it to calculate it into some racist/obama slam is malicious and does harm to the battle against real racism that is alive and well.
Beecher Frazier is quite simply a champion who represents the least among us. He is more than one sentence the right-wing takes and twist out of context
