The Rev. Wright has been labeled a national joke by the high priests
Advertisements [?]
of our sickened national discourse. Like Jesse Jackson (ha!), Al Sharpton (ha ha!), Ted Kennedy (ho ho!), Al Gore (hee hee!), and Jimmy Carter (snort!) before him, the MSM-ites have declared that his very name is a punchline, that no matter what he says he is not to be taken seriously, that he should know that he has been silenced.

Have you all noticed how their eyes bug out with Disbelief! and Anger! that Wright should appear on television and be interviewed and make speeches!! What an Outrage! After he has been Silenced by the corporate media, to have the gall to not just be quiet and stand in the corner and never be heard from again, there's a good little angry person, but to instead stand forward and continue to speak out!

"This hurts Obama!" "Why won't that guy shut up?!" "He's not doing Obama any favors!" "Why won't Obama make Wright go away?!"

You see, the media thinks it controls Who Gets To Talk - and Who Doesn't.

It isn't what Wright says so much that maddens them, but that having decided that he Doesn't Get To Talk - they get absolutely infuriated that he doesn't seem to get it - or won't play their game.

Oh how the animal rages when it doesn't get its way. Imagine - Faux news carried Wright's entire speech to the NAACP Detroit chapter, salivating for another reason to slap its muzzle back on him. When has Faux ever cared about a black preacher, or the NAACP, or anything else, enough to give it 30-40 minutes of uninterrupted coverage?

Three cheers for the Reverend.
