It's not really Reverend Wright the corporate media are trying to "make look bad", it's Obama, of course. Guilt by association was perfected by the WashPost, and TV bloviators like MSNBC's Chris Matthews back in the 90's with their attacks on the Clintons. Now their using the same propaganda tactics to undermine Barack - - and Hillary hasn't helped. McCain may be a hapless opportunist, but he is at least not taking advantage of this sneaky Wright charade. And speaking of MSNBC, check out that angry, overheated weasle, Dan Abrams. He's been milking the Wright/Obama "furor" to death. With half wits like Abrams, it's no wonder more people are flipping off their TV channels and watching DVD's. I AM !
