Jeremiah Wright Is Everywhere

Why is Jeremiah Wright all over my television, but I can't find John Hagee anywhere?

Wright is defending himself, and says the attacks on him are an attack on the black church. He did an interview with Bill Moyers which aired Friday night, then spoke at the NAACP dinner in Detroit, then this morning at the National Press Club -- which was broacast live, complete with a fiery question and answer session.

He was passionate, sometimes funny, sometimes completely on the mark -- and sometimes completely off. He certainly has all of the media all over the Wright controversy again, which is not a good thing because of the sensational way they deal with these issues. This cannot be what the Obama campaign wanted right now, but perhaps Wright feels he's been wronged by the media needed to respond now rather than later. Certainly the Clinton campaign, and John McCain, will be taking advantage of this -- McCain is already going after Obama on Wright. We'll be talking about it on the show. What do you make of it all?
