So Barack Obama is finally denouncing the pronouncements of his mentor, pastor Jeremiah Wright, and distancing himself from him. But what did he say at the National Press Club or the NAACP or in the Bill Moyers puff-piece interview that he hasn't already said?
He (Wright) said Obama is distancing himself because he is a (pardon my language here) "politician"!! EGAD!!!! Barack Obama is supposed to be a new type of leader, not a politician, but somebody who will bring everybody today in a big, national group hug.
So, did Obama attend that United Trinity Chuch for 20 years to establish "street cred" but really didn't believe what was said, or is he throwing his mentor/pastor under the bus because he no longer serves his purposes?
