May 4, 2008 -- The Rev. Jeremiah Wright, Barack Obama's loose cannon of a spiritual adviser, stole the wife of a parishioner - after the man sought Wright's help in saving his troubled marriage, the former husband told friends.
Delmer Reed, 59, confided to pals that he believed the minister moved in on his wife while Wright was counseling the couple at his Chicago church in the early 1980s, The Post has learned.
"That's exactly how he said it," Reed's divorce lawyer, Roosevelt Thomas, told The Post.
"It looks like Delmer might have been right," he said, because after Delmer and Ramah Reed were divorced, she got remarried - to Wright. "Either that or this was the biggest coincidence in the world."
Asked about the relationship between Wright and his ex-wife, Reed told The Post, "Oh, the things I could tell you."
Initially, he didn't believe the rumors.
"People were telling me that my extremely attractive wife was seen with the pastor," Reed said. "But I didn't believe it. I thought, 'So what?' "
Was he wrong in the end?
"Well, yeah," he said.

As we reported, the reverend will soon move into a multimillion-dollar home. And now "The Factor" has learned he drives two Mercedes Benz automobiles worth about $142,000. In addition, Wright's church has access to an astounding $10 million line of credit.
Follow the money. Maybe a wife isn't the only thing the good rev's made off with....
That looks like Joe Friday without a hat.
[Just a minor slip mind you, anyone could make it. After all, what's a Commandment here or there.]
He looks to have the goods ... why not a wife?
:D

wonder how much is running down chrissey mathews’ leg these days????
The man’s former wife, now wife of Wright, doesn’t look too good in my eyes, either. She “went” of her own volition in demanding a divorce, and then dating and wedding Wright. “My way or the Highway”. Maybe she and Wright are a fit after all.
Is that an actual photo of Obama smoking?? If so is there any background about the photo?
Rev. Wright had Mrs. Reed sit on his lap, and they talked about the first thing that came up.
Must be adultery is a part of Unity Church's Black Liberation Theology.
Either he’s a big man forgiving, or he knows he got off easy, and is lucky to have lost her before she did real damage.
Time for a 24-hour buffet.
And his chickens are comin' home to roost."
Poor guy must still be suffering from hysterical blindness.
Oh come all ye faithful!
“Is that an actual photo of Obama smoking??”
It’s an open secret that Obama smokes like a chimney. No kidding.
