He is the man!! I wonder how to get a hold of this video. He is very well informed and I am seriously enjoying his engaging and lively delivery.

Yes! This is Wright!!

He is the best

That was supposed to link to Sam Cooke's Change gonna come soon

CNN showed the entire intro and all of Jeremiah Wright. I wonder if people will take soundbites of this and place them in republican ads. Bastards.

Too deep for average consumption. Welcome to a different world. It's all about tolerance and acceptance of the fact that no one group can take possession of America. It belongs to us all. Rick Sanchez is taking a positive view so far.

Wow:

O'Brian: "NOT ANGRY AT ALL"

"THAT GUY'S A LOT DIFFERENT THAN HOW HE'S BEEN PORTRAYED BY THE MEDIA"

Even though it's not posted on the C-Span schedule, they often replay events such as this, especially in light of the fact that Rev Wright will speak to the National Press Club tomorrow, which C-Span will broadcast live.

Reverend Wright is an asset to Senator Obama.
Definitely NOT a liability.

The media have egg on their collective corporate faces for the dangerous hate inciting hatchet job they did in (mis)portraying him at best as a caricature, and at worst as an America hating dangerous Black separatist.

I think it's a matter of time before they issue a formal apology to Reverend Wright, the church, AND to Senator Obama.
I know. It's naive wishful thinking, but they owe him one huge apology at the very least.

If I were David Axelrod and David Plouffe, I'd get with Barack and figure out a way to bring Jeremiah back into the fold. Fortunately since Barack did not "disown" him... he can bring him home again.

I'd put it right in the media's and Hillary's, Bill's and McSame's faces.

Well, y'all, I think we're pretty much "the faithful" on this thread, and I'm not surprised that Rev. Wright goes down well with us.

I do think it will help for the American people to realize that he's actually a smart, funny guy with a balanced perspective.

But I don't know about him being an "asset" in the general election . . . it's easy to overestimate the American electorate . . . so let's not reschedule all the Wright-Obama photo ops *just* yet, okay?

Am i the only one who finds Solodad O'Brian voice annoying?

Soledad, Roland Martin and Rick Sanchez got it wrong! I couldnt believe that!

Change in coming

Amen

Monday will be interesting. Can't wait to watch the MSM grapple with this. I bet they will trivialize his message and use his various voices as mocking. They are in the edit rooms right now reducing it to 30 seconds.

What this also does is to reaffirm Barack's judgment. His political opponents were using the Rev. Wright flap to question Obama's key claim for why he was the best choice for President.

A first look at some feedback from the critics

Sorry did not finised, this man is too intellegent for them for them

You know, Rev. Wright being on the front pages again is actually a good thing for the country. We keep trying to hide race and racism under the rug. We don't want to talk about it. We treat those "different" as deficient, and act like that's the norm. We act like things can but compartmentalized. The assumption is "if black people would just be more 'white,'" everything would be just fine. If Barack Obama would just be more like Hillary and Bill and John McCain, everything would be okay. If he could be less black, that would be better.

Rev. Wright is too brilliant for these people.

Can you believe the spin from the Hill supporters like Debbie Schultz the FL should count advocate.

It's not a problem but they want it to be a problem. So the Republican attack ads still have legs - they ads would be ineffective if their definition of wright is changed.

Why are they behaving like the man was calling on God to damn, America - he wasn't.

He was speaking from a biblical perspective that says if you do wrong and sing God bless America, God is not going to listen after he becomes weary of the rebellion to His word and "it's in the bible" that God will send damnation for the unrepentant who continue to sin. He is a preacher and most [all colors] do preach this message of damnation for the unrepentant, it's a bedrock of the Christian teaching.

Where are the Christians on this, why aren't they speaking, it's the same message delivered differently?

The mighty Reverend KICKED ASS! The truth shall set us free, for those who want to hear it. Nothing scaaaaaary in his words.
I was doing a Hallelujah stir on the treadmill.
I thought Rick Sanchez and CNN gave it pretty fair coverage for a change.

Let's see what tomorrow brings. Wonder how the Clinton's will turn his words into a racial burn against Barack? Who gives a damn about McSame and his clueless lemmings.

One more thing... remember also that on one of the eight or nine daises (sp?) sat Sen. Carl Levin, Gov. Jennifer Granholm, Sen. Debbie Stabenow and several other Michigan pols who SUPPORT Hillary. Now surely if Rev. Wright was so toxic, Hillary would have told her supporters to stay away lest they be poisoned by his "divisive" "hate-speech-filled" "diatribes".

From Hillary's mouth: "You can't choose your family, but you can choose your pastor. I wouldn't have sat there for 20 years." But her supporters were there tonight en masse and KNEW ahead of time who the keynote speaker would be.

Hmmmmmmmmm.......
