Reverend Wright Watch Jumps the Shark
While I recognize that Obama’s association with Reverend Wright will reverberate still and continue to harm his campaign in one manner or other, there is a sure sign that the fight to change the election to one against Reverend Wright has “Jumped the Shark”. It is this.
Here you see someone working for Hugh Hewitt at Townhall.com with the intention of posting up Wright’s Trinity church’s old newsletter during the time Obama attended. Now, under normal circumstances under normal rules of political attacking, you would think that the pages they decide to post would be the more incendiary ones. But, apparently not, or we have come to a point where just ripping out everything from Reverend Wright’s back stock is incendiary enough. These newly uncovered newsletters for this “Pastor Watch” feature uncover the shocking requests for a Kidney donation for a sick member of the congregation, and a request for charity to send for the relief of Katrina victims. Surely these uncovered church documents will sink Obama’s campaign.
I may as well add I found this via here.
There was a brief bit of muttering when Obama finally disassociated himself from the church of the cynicism in citing Harrassment of church members, including invalids. It struck me as a sort of true enough that was not Obama’s main concern — which was political damage control — but who cares? It was a fair enough concern and whatever the purpose of calling Media out to quit hovering around that corner of church happenings went back to a fair point indeed.
