Oh.... Well, then....
look what happens overnight—on a Friday
First, Wright leaves Bn/mO’s campaign:
Spokesman Tommy Vietor emails:
“Rev. Wright is no longer serving on the African American Religious Leadership Committee."
The Old, “if someone says something controversial, I just dump ‘em and everything’s puppies and unicorns again” tactic. Yeah.. that’ll work.
Now, Bn/mO responds to the statements / charges / outrage about his pastor—in 8 paragraphs—at HuffPo!
[oh yeah—this’ll work real good]
bla bla… I vehemently disagree and strongly condemn ... bla bla bla… I categorically denounce… bla bla
...The statements that Rev. Wright made that are the cause of this controversy were not statements I personally heard him preach while I sat in the pews of Trinity or heard him utter in private conversation. When these statements first came to my attention, it was at the beginning of my presidential campaign. I made it clear at the time that I strongly condemned his comments.
...Michelle and I look forward to continuing a relationship with a church that has done so much good.
“I didn’t know” ??!?!?!?!?
Sorry, Bn/mO. I believe I hear some chickens....
coming home....
to roost.
.
Yet More:
“Didn’t know,” eh?
