Well, you can not help but notice that Barack Obama’s former pastor, The Reverand Jerimiah Wright is EVERYWHERE! EVERYWHERE!
First there was the insightful interview with Bill Moyers where Dr Wright actually appears rational
Then, of course, Reverand Wright spoke in front of the NAACP in Detroit. He actually appeared off kilter.
Then, he appeared at the National Press Club and quite frankly, in a packed crowd, appeared flippant, and just not positive.
Now, this blogger has been more accepting amongst collegues, because many caucasian people do not understand how people of other races and faiths worship. There was definitely some definite race bating on Fox News. This does NOT help in defining Barack Obama, or does not give any credience to how Barack Obama makes decisions. I know that Rev. Wright is an extremely intelligent leader of the community. Barack Obama is doing everything and anything to distance himself from the Reverand. One question: What the hell does this have to do with the current issues of the day? McCain sought after endorsements from Anti-Catholic and Anti-Semetic ministers, but we have not dragged this out. What is becoming more and more clear is that we would not be having this discussion if Barack was caucasian. However, given the paradigm of the situation, it will be used as a devisive tool to distract the people.
Issues worth noting: Why Gas is $4 a gallon, Why the economy is having difficulty, Are we winning the war on terror? How are we going to restore liberty and freedom? These are the issues. Not a reverand from Chicago. Lets see Sean Hannity address that!
The more Wright speaks, the more it damages Barack. It is simple as that. Many can not run on their records, so they need a distraction. But, if we want to get “real” let Reverand Wright retire and move on to more important issues of the day.
