Scott at Powelineblog.com goes there, offering quotes from Rich Lowery at NRO. . .per small excerpt here:
[. . .] At NRO's Corner, Rich Lowry discovers an admiring allusion to this vein of Wright's rhetoric in Obama's 1995 memoir Dreams From My Father about the first sermon Obama heard Wright give:
And so it went, a meditation on a fallen world. While the boys next to me doodled on their church bulletin, Reverend Wright spoke of Sharpsville and Hiroshima, the callousness of policy makers in the White House and in the State House. As the sermon unfolded, though, the stories of strife became more prosaic, the pain more immediate. The reverend spoke of the hardship that the congregation would face tomorrow, the pain of those far from the mountaintop, worrying about paying the light bill [. . .]
There is more; and more to come on this, without a doubt.
[. . .] It is this world, a world where cruise ships throw away more food in a day than most residents of Port-au-Prince see in a year, where white folks greed runs a world in need, apartheid in one hemisphere, apathy in another hemisphere Thats the world! On which hope sits!

No question, Obama is inspired by his mentor; and his sermonizing familiar . Bottom line; the dream has been interrupted and seems a nightmare may be unfolding.
(Can only wonder what his more outspoken wife is saying about the latest turn of events.)
