Barak Riefenstahl

Everyone who dares bring up the Rev Wright and his hate speeches is being accused of
1. Character Assassination
2. Bigotry
3. Ignoring History (presumably White treatment of Blacks)
4. Hate attacks

I assume there will be more of this. In typical Stalinist fashion all references to the good Rev have been removed from Obama's website. As of this AM there is no mention at all in either the LA Times or the NY Times. are but single small pieces in both the LA and NY Times. The Sunday talking heads all featured the report but did their level best to trivialize the situation. I include FOX in this which is now linking to Huffington Post for information (at least on the Wallace show) Weekend supervision doesn't exist. From NewsBusters:

The media was saying "print the legend," and suggested that when opponents try to vet the Democrat, when they try to do the job a supine media blatantly failed to do, it was then the media’s job to vet the opponents and question their sincerity, not vet the Democrat.

The news media doesn’t see its job as informing the electorate. They see their job as getting the Democrat past the electorate.
And if that ain't cool enough, here's the great man his own self on TV.
Then, in shades of Leni Riefenstahl, the famous Nazi film maker who said she was "out of town" when asked by an American reporter about infamous Krystal Nacht. Obama says he "wasn't there" when Rev. Wright uttered most of his awful phrases.

Here is Obama regarding a particular Wright sermon: "I wasn't in church during the time that these statement(s) were made. I did not hear such incendiary language myself, personally." Barak parrots Riefenstahl, he's learning from the best.

A note: Krystal Nacht is the night in Nazi Germany when Hitler's street thugs, known as Brown Shirts, infamously broke the windows on every Jewish business in the country.
