Title: Rev. Jeremiah Wright to release a book in October
Post by: Wretched Excess on August 12, 2008, 01:19:44 AM
I found this in another article about The BarackStar!
Quote
In October, Obama’s former pastor, Wright, will publish a new book and hit the road to promote it, an occasion that might well place the topic of Obama’s blackness (along with his patriotism and his candor about what he heard in the pews in all those years at Trinity Church) squarely at the center of the national debate. How Obama handles that moment may determine whether he becomes the next occupant of 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.

this should be fun. :-)

I saw that on NRO with the link to the story about the Messiah.

I wonder if they will include the book of Jeremiah once they publish the Obible, or it will be considered Apocrypha or Blasphemia  ?

Obama's pastor, touring America while the Barackstar! tries to get elected to the White House.

Yeah, that's gonna go over real well with the folks in flyover country.

I'm thinking that he won't be appearing on any of the normal shows to promote his book..  OTOH, I'm sure that Oreilly and Hannity would love to have him on their shows.  :fuelfire:

I'll bet this guy hits every talk show imaginable.  unless the obama campaign sends him on a sabbatical to shangrilockistan (or wherever they "disappeared him to last time), he'll be the hottest booking on the planet. :-)

Title: Reverend Wright plans an October surprise

New York Magazine has done a special issue this week on race and the US election. There’s lot of good stuff in the package but this line from John Heilemann’s cover story stood out to me:

“In October, Obama’s former pastor, Wright, will publish a new book and hit the road to promote it”
 

This is a huge problem for Obama. It means that the whole controversy over Wright’s racialist sermons and his friendship with Obama is going to be returning to the news agenda just as undecided voters begin to make up their minds. ...

Double agent for Hillary?

More of a double agent for the likes of Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson.

Daughter: Rev. Wright NOT publishing book in October (http://essence.typepad.com/news/2008/08/daughter-rev-wr.html)

His daughter says he's not publishing a book...

A New York magazine cover story last week reignited the debate over Rev. Jeremiah Wright when it stated - without attribution - that the former pastor of Sen. Barack Obama was releasing a new book.

But his daughter, Jeri, told me today that the story is absolutely false.

"The only book we're working on is the history of Trinity (United Church of Christ) and I haven't even started editing that," Wright told Essence.com.

After I reached out to her, she called her father, who is teaching and ministering in Ghana (I ran into him last month when I was in the West African nation) and said he "laughed" when she asked about the book.

someone needs to tell him that it will be a best seller if he gets it out before november, but birdcage liner thereafter. :uhsure:  cha-ching, baby! :-)
