From CNN's Jack Cafferty 
Rev. Jeremiah Wright addressed the National Press Club, Monday in Washington, DC.
 FROM CNN's Jack Cafferty: It seems like Reverend Jeremiah Wright is going out of his way to make sure the United States does not elect its first African American president. Which is strange in light of all the complaints Rev. Wright has about the way white people have done things in this country. Just as the controversy over Wright was dying down, he showed up at the National Press Club in Washington yesterday with a can of gasoline and got the fire going again. Among other things he praised Louis Farrakhan, the leader of the Nation of Islam who also reportedly provided Wright's security. He accused the United States of terrorism, said the government created the AIDS virus to cause the genocide of racial minorities, and defended the view that Zionism is racism. And this is from someone who is supposed to be Obama's friend. To read more and contribute to the Cafferty File discussion click here Filed under: Cafferty File |
