The Obama Factor - The Spin Zone

"Turns out the Wright show was not that complex after all. Everyone understands it now. Even Obama."

"Brilliant and devastating, this column demonstrates why Charles Krauthammer is the pre-eminent political analyst in America." - Ted West

Yesterday, Glenn Beck presented Reverend Wright "in context." That is, he took the lines about which Wright has protested that the media was presenting out of context, and Beck showed a few minutes of each sermon surrounding the Wright quotes.

Context didn't help. in fact, it only made his quotes seem far worse... and it didn't do much for the congregation either. As my wife observed, "I saw some children sitting there."

So today, Beck spends the whole hour of his CNN Headline News show "with" Reverend Wright. It promises to be a real treat... a wonderful lead-in to the Diamondbacks-Mets game for me.
