Obama joined Wright's church to get a politcal power base and tried to push him behind the scenes when he advanced to the next step. He had to step that process up when the Wright sound bytes started being broadcast. Wright got mad and got even.
From the article:
"A lot of people in the church believe they were there for this man when no one else was, and a lot of people don't believe it any more when Obama claims he loves the man who did so much for him," the source added.
It never works out when a group of hysterical, apoplectic, America-hating racists try to get along with a politically-green Marxist with delusions of bringing The Socialist Miracle to America. It's a match that's doomed from the start.

The amount of coverage Rev. Wright got over the weekend and Monday morning was unusual to say the least. CNN continuously ran his NAACP speech all night, maybe 3 or 4 times in a row on Sunday night. It's all just a little too convenient for Obama.
I agree it is too conspiratorial, but at the same time Wright is on record knowing that Obama would need to distance himself from him and the church to be able to advance politically. He was well aware that something like “The Speech” had to happen and that Obama had to appear mainstream to advance his campaign. Why would Wright be so upset when it actually happened?
I think it is more likely that this blew up in the Obama camp’s face in the past week. I think the Moyers interview and subsequent appearances really were meant to moderate peoples’ views of the pastor to put the issue to rest. I think both the Rev, Obama and some top Obama campaign chiefs are so distanced from real world American thinking that they do not recognize that some things both men say are absolutely appalling to us typical Americans.
I beleive they come from a small subset of the population and believe the hype around their fawning leftist base. When he says things like he did in San Fran, or at rallys talking about ‘taking profits’ from private corporations, those things seem perfectly logical in their ignorant minds.
When the Rev goes out on tv and talks about the acts of America as terrorist acts equivalent to jihadist attacks on us, it reflects the thinking of their leftist friends and political supporters. I think despite the intention to present him as a reasonable moderate politician, they cannot conceal the radical elements that surrounds the campaign and inner circle because they do not realize that many of those ideas are not common.
The proof will be in what Happens now with Wright.How is Wright going to react to Obama ,Will he call him a Liar by saying Obama has known exactly who he was for 20 years and has been Lying to the Public for his own benefit or will he just fade away and try to make people think that Obama really is just dicovering Wrights true feelings to save his Butt

Exactly! No need for a complex explanation, when it is really that simple.
He associates with Bill Ayers for the same reason, to build his political power base of America haters.
