Wright is speaking at the National Press Club?

What am I missing? Why has this purveyor of hate all of a sudden become the toast of the liberal media?

I guess I just answered my own question.

While at Trinity he developed nearly 100 active ministries/outreach programs and seven separate corporations that continue to serve the greater Chicago community.

Anyone care to guess if any or all of those seven corporations get their funding from taxpayer dollars via Chicago 'Rat party "grants" and other government allocations? I also have to wonder if the Wrong Revrrrund Wright gets any salary from those seven corporations?

Gosh, I can sure see how he would be a heroic figure to the DC "press"! I think the Wrong Revrrrund Wright, Barack Hussein Obama and the MSM would call me a gun-clinging, bible-reading, bitter, cynical, conservative.
