Barack Obama Watch: Jeremiah Wright ” A Legitimate Political Issue” Part Two

Jim Garaghty weighs into the Flap: McCain, Up To Speed on the Latest Wright Sermons (U.S. Is Same as al-Qaeda, etc.)

Also, note that McCain… okay, more likely somebody on his campaign… reads the Campaign Spot and/or listens to Hugh Hewitt, because McCain is now quoting the recently-discovered new recordings of Wright’s sermons.Also, note that McCain… okay, more likely somebody on his campaign… reads the Campaign Spot and/or listens to Hugh Hewitt, because McCain is now quoting the recently-discovered new recordings of Wright’s sermons.

• I saw yesterday some additional comments that have been revealed by Pastor Wright, one of them comparing the United States Marine Corps with Roman Legionnaires who were responsible for the death of our Savior, I mean being involved in that. It’s beyond belief. And then of course saying that Al Qaeda and the American flag were the same flags. So I can understand, I can understand why people are upset about this. I can understand why Americans, when viewing these kinds of comments, are angry and upset. Just like they view Senator Obama’s statements about why people turn to their faith and their values. He believes that it’s out of economic concerns. We all know it’s out of a fundamental belief, a fundamental faith in this country and its values and its principles. Again, Senator Obama, out of touch. I can’t control, and will not in future, control. I will voice my opinion. And I will continue to say that I think that ad should not be run. But I won’t continue to try to be the referee here.”

Now that McCain has decided that Jeremiah Wright may indeed be an issue, what about the North Carolina Ad Flap and the firing of Soren Dayton?

Will Senator McCain have an epiphany of embarassment as to who is “out of touch with reality?”

The Senator needs to apologize.
