Obama’s recent disownment of Wright reveals his Philadelphia speech to be an exercise is disingenuous political expediency. Wright’s antics call Obama’s character into question.

Conservatives get a media free pass for associating with radical white preachers (Obama has not gotten anywhere near the same treatment).

In his Philadelphia speech, Obama was condescending towards Wright and he was condescending towards white working class Americans. This is a problem.

  •  5/2 Wrap: I simply do not see how Wright is “racist,” as Krauthammer (quote below) asserts. Am I missing something?

“Poor Geraldine Ferraro, thrice lashed by Obama in Philadelphia as the white equivalent of Wright’s raving racism, is off the hook.”
