Imagine, if you will, that John McCain sat in a church and declared as his spiritual advisor, a man who preached from the pulpit that the devastation Hurrican Katrina inflicted upon the black communities in New Orleans as "chickens are coming home to roost" and went on and on with hateful, racist attacks against black Americans.
Does anyone with an once of brains think that John McCain would not have been dogged with questions about this from the very beginning of his campaign? Does anyone honestly think that the media would have ignored what would be obvious, even to the most obtuse observer, racist rantings that might be linked to a Republican?
But that is exactly what has been happening with regards to Rev. Wright's racists, anti-American "preaching" that Sen. B. H. Obama has been listening from his beloved "spiritual advisor". Rolling Stone magazine reported this stuff back in February 2007. The rest of Main Scream Media is only now paying attention. And that is mostly because conservative radio and blogs have drawn attention to the "Reverends" insane rants.
I guess MSM was, as Chris Matthews stated, to focused on the "thrill running up [their] leg" watching Obama to notice the crazy preacher Obama consciously chose and admired.
