C’mon guys, all he said is that “if…blah, blah, blah,” he “would feel UNCOMFORTABLE” hanging out at TUCC. This is just slimey lawyer psychobabble and means virtually NOTHING. Why there is a lot of hoopla thinking Obama has somehow disowned or repudiated Wright makes me think all of yall have forgotten all you ever knew about lawyerly-like Clinton-speak.

Obama needs the street cred with black voters, so he hedges his words very carefully whenever he talks about Wright. “Uncomfortable” is the well worn psychological escape word. It is prescribed for people who won’t be responsible for their likes, dislikes, or behaviors.
