Well whadda ya know, Rev. Wright did exactly what everyone expected him to do at the National Press Club meeting; he embarassed the crap out of Obama. Here are the best quotes from the good Reverend:
“I said to Barack Obama last year, ‘If you get elected, November the 5th I’m coming after you, because you’ll be representing a government whose policies grind under people,’ Wright said.
…
Whoever wrote that question doesn’t read or watch the news,” Wright said. “He did not denounce me. He distanced himself from some of my remarks, like most of you, never having heard the sermon, all right? …
“He didn’t distance himself. He had to distance himself, because he’s a politician, from what the media was saying I had said, which was [portrayed as] anti-American. … He did, as I said, what politicians do.”
Somewhere in America, Obama is cringing.
