Well, Wright resurfaces - calls Hasselback "that dumb broad" & Obama made a '"bad decision" by distancing himself from the Rev. Jeremiah Wright and his church, Wright said in a sermon Sunday — but that’s OK.' He (Obama) is also "hanging out with people giving him "bad advice."'

Wright: Obama made 'bad' choice to distance self, but it's ok

BY MAUREEN O’DONNELL Staff Reporter
President-elect Barack Obama made a "bad decision" by distancing himself from the Rev. Jeremiah Wright and his church, Wright said in a sermon Sunday — but that’s OK.

"He’s still my child," Wright said in a sermon in which he expressed pride in Obama’s longtime association with Trinity United Church of Christ.
His talk was spiced with Wright’s trademark blend of history lesson, mimicry, and — depending on your point of view — insults, or telling it like it is.

This time the object of his contempt seemed to be Elizabeth Hasselbeck of The View, whom — while not saying her name — twice referred to as a "broad," including once as "that dumb broad."

Wright, speaking on the church’s 47-year anniversary, said he was proud of "the only church that produced the first and only African-American president in the 211-year history of the United States. No other church can say that.
"The hatred of the media and the haters in politics may have caused him to distance himself from us, but the love of Christ will never allow me to distance myself from him," Wright said of Obama. "Hey, hey, hey. I can no more disown him than I can disown any other child of mine makes bad decisions. He made a bad decision but he’s still my child. I am the old uncle."

And an old uncle cannot turn his back on his nephew, Wright said, even when the nephew is hanging out with people giving him "bad advice."  Wright retired from Chicago’s Trinity United Church of Christ this year but was invited back to speak on the church’s anniversary.

I'm sure Elizabeth will be in fine form tomorrow.

1. How Obama sat through 20 years of this I do not know. Oprah could take it only for two.

2. Another fifteen-minuter desperately trying to extend his allotted portion of fame. Keep at it, Rev. Wright, and soon you'll be the Billy Carter of the Obama administration.

11. He needs to stfu...

He loves attention....also, I doubt his sermons were of this variety when Obama attended his church. Obama is not a dummy. Also, how do they know who he was talking about if he never said her name?...hasselbeck is a dumb broad but there are a few more out there he could have been referring to.

18. There is no way that Wright was like this when Obama attended.

None. He may be acquiring Alzheimer's, anyone know?

19. Wright is a pitiful excuse for a man, a friend and a pastor. **** him.

They're showing their hypocracy.......... again.

Wasn't that long ago that Wright was the toast of the DUmp speaking truth to power.  Now he's just senile and in the way for saying things that shed a poor light on the liberal savior.

I'm sure they will kiss and make up and Wright will find himself as guest at the White House.
