Jeremiah Wright received more coverage than the Iraq War
or the economy for weeks because it was important to Fox News
and the Clinton campaign to make damn sure that the voters
understood that Barack Obama is black, really black.
I am the only person I know who was appalled to learn that George
W. Bush consulted with Pat Robertson on Supreme Court appointments, and that he talked to Ted Haggard every Monday.
But that is just me. I am so old I can actually remember when
there was separation of church and state.
