THE DENIAL OF WRIGHT - OBAMA IN FOCUS

Senator Barack Obama has repudiated his former pastor Jeremiah Wright - or has he. Obama has been able, once again, to have it both ways.

“I can no more disown him than I can disown the black community,” vs "“Had the reverend not retired, and had he not acknowledged that what he had said had deeply offended people and were inappropriate and mischaracterized what I believe is the greatness of this country — for all its flaws — then I wouldn’t have felt comfortable staying there at the church.”

On one hand he stands by his preacher......... on the other he says if he did not go than I would have left the church. Does he get challenged for this. Of course not. Despite 20 years of listening to his vile pastor who he has on his campaign to preach a message to black supporters that registered loud and clear, Obama is in the clear.

I wonder if Obama will visit Wright, who married him and baptized his children, at his new suburban Chicago home that’s valued at $1.6 million and was at least partially secured through a mortgage made by Trinity United Church of Christ. Sounds like quite a home for a person who made a career out of preaching that black values are incompatible with middle-class wealth.
