Part of the defense of the “good” Rev was to throw his grandma under the bus and compare her private and relatively benign comments to the spew of his racist pastor. Nice job Obama.
That's the first time I heard him acknowledge any of his white relatives. Of course, I am not an avid student of his speeches, so I probably missed previous references.
Grandma must be in show business, where any publicity is good news.
Not all pastors like him.
