On Tuesday morning, following Rev Jeremiah Wright's incendiary National Press Club appearance, former House Speaker Newt Gingrich said on ABC's Good Morning America that Rev.Wright "went out of his way to weaken Obama...I think Reverend Wright has a greater interest in his self-importance". Indeed Rev Wright is deliberately damaging Barack Obama-but for a more cynical reason than ego preservation. snip
Rev Jeremiah Wright's worst nightmare would be Barack Obama as president. Rev Wright's entire raison d'etre would evaporate. But this should come as no surprise.
The politics of indignation, sans solution finding, fueling fund raising and fostering a permanent underclass voting block has been the far left modus operandi since Gene McCarthy, George McGovern and Jimmy Carter hijacked the Democratic Party from Scoop Jackson and Pat Moynihan.
Rev. Jeremiah Wright is but the most egregious practitioner of the far left's politics of indignation. The democrats' approach to the energy crisis is far more typical.
The US could be energy independent in ten years if we resumed building nuclear power plants and drilling for oil and gas in Alaska and the offshore waters of the continental shelf and constructed new refineries.
Moreover the bold target of reducing greenhouse gas emissions 80% by 2050 could be easily attained if every coal fired power plant were replaced by nuclear. Why won't the democrats agree to it? Because it is a solution.
Solutions are not the foundation for fund raising by democrats, environmental extremists or global warming activists. And that's why Rev Wright has no interest in seeing Barack Obama as president. Because it is a solution.

There may be a lot of truth to that. I've always wondered what would happen if the race pimps and libtards actually got everything they wanted. I would LOVE to lurk on DU that day :-)

I heard a talking head say they thought the whole Wright/Obama thing was staged. Obama would appeal to the voters by standing up to Wright. It kinda made sense.

That was no talking head. It was me posting yesterday.
