Rev. Wright Trying to Kill Obama Campaign UPDATED

What do you do when the cow is threatening to die? Its wheezes are becoming weaker and weaker, its eyes glazing, its strength fleeting. What do you do if that cow is the proverbial cash cow, the cow on which you have staked your fame and fortune?

If you are Jeremiah Wright, Barack Obama's spiritual adviser for over 20 years, you prop up that beast with every means at your disposal. Jeremiah Wright is, as we speak, resuscitating his cash cow of victimhood, caring little about whom he takes down with him.

Mr. Wright gave speeches over the past couple of days that have done nothing but further clouded the Presidential candidacy of his church's most famous member.

Rather than apologize for his lunacy conspiracy theories, Wright wrote more chapters. Rather than take a step toward embracing the country that has heaped fantastic financial and social benefits upon him, Wright has thrown down the gauntlet. Rather than quietly retreat from Barack Obama's Presidential campaign, Wright has attached a grappling hook onto the pant leg of Obama, and Obama cannot distance himself, regardless of how diplomatically he might try.

Rev. Jeremiah Wright does not want Barack Obama to win the Presidency, for with that high honor, an honor that is impossible without the support of tens of millions white voters, the cash cow of victimhood will have given up its last drop of financial elixir, and the good Reverend, Dr. Jeremiah Wright, is still thirsty.

UPDATE 9:41 PM.

It looks like Obama is going to try and distance himself, and not in a diplomatic fashion. (Not that it will work.)

Anyone who thinks that Barack Obama has finally seen the man hiding behind the curtain is deeply intoxicated or daft. What Obama has finally recognized is that that Dr. Wright was doing serious damage to his campaign and that he was not going to go down quietly.

Are we to believe that the man that Obama saw speaking yesterday was not the same man that he met 20 years ago? Or should we instead believe that Mr. Obama was too gullible to believe that which America figured out the first time it saw the raving Reverend rooster banter on about whiteness, AIDS, America and slavery?

This is nothing more than damage control on Obama's part. Too bad it didn't take place 19 years ago.
