Oh Roger, you are beyond help.
First, Obama was not suggesting Wright and his grandmother are the same (and by the way, being generally afraid of running into a black guy at night is not equivalent to fearing a mugging. Obama said his grandmother was afraid of black men writ large.). He was trying to make the point that people we love have deep flaws. Could Obama have said that better? Absolutely, but the comparison is far less sloppy than the one he made between Tom Coburn and Bill Ayers, I’d say.
The real issue here is that Wright, as shown by yesterday’s speech, has become an instant publicity whore hell-bent on bringing his congregant down by insisting Obama has been insincere all along.
Obama can still torpedo this prick.
