Is Rev. Wright trying to sabotage Obama?

The more I think about it, the more the following speculation makes sense: that Obama's spiritual advisor, Rev. Dr. Jeremiah A. Wright, Jr., is trying to sabotage Obama's campaign.

Rev. Wright has multiple reasons to do it:

1. Spite: Obama dumped him at the last moment from his big spot on national TV giving the invocation at Obama's kickoff rally in Springfield last winter.

2. Glory: Wright craves attention the way Britney Spears does.

3. Ideology: Wright despises the idea that whites would give a black man like Obama an even break. As he told Obama when they first met (p. 283 of Obama's Dreams from My Father):

As far as my limited searching can tell, Steve Sailer has been alone in mining Barack Obama's two autobiographies for insight on the man. Please note the date of this post, it's from 3 months ago and please read the whole piece over at the iSteve Blog.

Yesterday I posted another item that originated with Steve Sailer about how Obama changed the story about his grandmoter fearing black men, who passed by. That's not how Obama told it in his book, his grandmother became afraid of an aggressive panhandler, who she thought might hit her over the head.

In the latest Rev. Wright flare up, Wright may end up sabotaging Obama, but it won't be on purpose. The fault my dear Obama, lies not in the stars, but in you.

Yes, the fault like in Obama. His lame speech fell short.

It would make some sort of logic if the good Reeeeeverend was trying to sabotage Obama. Look at it this way, if Obama succeeds and is the Democratic nominee for POTUS, the good Reeeeeeeverend is out of a job. His shtick of race baiting drivel will be revealed to be the total frenzied, manipulative bs that it is, used to take advantage of his congregation and line the coffers of his “church”. The schtick also guarantees the good Reeeeeverend the power that he obviously craves. Hello Obama, bye, bye, Rev.
Wright. LOL.

For what it’s worth, I believe that Obama has little or no faith in this “church”, but instead used it as a political platform within the black community. So, in effect, both Rev. Wright and Obama were/are using this church and congregation for their own purposes.

This is an interesting idea.

Obama did throw Wright under the bus, along with his Granny.

I’ll be back later.

Interesting theory, especially in light of the date it was written (thanks for pointing that out. I didn’t pick up on it until you noted it.).

My initial reaction would be to dismiss the idea, but I might have to think on it a little more.

Hannity pounds the Farrakhan connection as to ‘how couldn’t he have known?’. And what did Farrakhan do in ‘07 to warrant ‘Man of the Year’? Sailer has also pointed out that Barack went to the Million Man March. But does he know the significance of the number 19? And has Barack bought “Million Man Math” to teach his kids? We want to know.

Don’t you remember he witnessed President Bush blowing up the levies to flood the NO...oh or was that earlier?

[budwiesest]

He wouldn’t do that to a MacDaddy.
