Following the Rev. Jeremiah Wright’s controversial public addresses earlier this week, several television commentators were quick to say that the feisty Chicago preacher had thrown his former parishioner under the bus.
Several said it. Several times.
Then Sen. Barack Obama responded by separating himself from Pastor Wright and the positions articulated in those addresses. How were the presidential candidate’s comments received?
Talking heads said Sen. Obama had thrown Rev. Wright under the bus. Surprise, surprise.
How about thinking of something new to say? Give it 110 percent. Life wasn’t meant to be easy. We’ve been there; done that. We are not happy campers.
