"The superior man, when resting in safety, does not forget that danger may come. When in a state of security he does not forget the possibility of ruin. When all is orderly, he does not forget that disorder may come. Thus his person is not endangered, and his States and all their clans are preserved." -- Confucius

Obama's former pastor says media exploited him

Wright's comments were a stumbling block for Obama's campaign. In an impassioned speech about faith and race, the Democrat at first expressed support for Wright, saying that "I can no more disown him than I can my white grandmother."


Ironic, since he threw both Rev. Wright and his grandmother under the bus for political expedience. Note that nowhere in the woe-is-me article was it mentioned, by neither Wright or the writer, that Sen. McCain, foolishly in my opinion, took the preacher off the table as an issue to be discussed.
