Obama's popularity appears to be unphased by the latest focus on Jeremiah Wright.

It is disappointing, though, to watch a Black preacher stab a former member of his flock in the back. Jeremiah Wright claims to be defending the Black Church," but he seems more focused on defending himself, grabbing headlines, and promoting his book. Mostly, though, he's proven that you can count on a Black pastor to do a lot of things, but shutting up is not among them. >
Ecclesiastes 3:1 says "There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under heaven." Apparently, there is a time to preach and a time to shut up. It is time for us to tell Wright that his time has passed.
Senator Obama was wrong when he said that Wright is like a crazy uncle. My crazy uncles know how to act in public. They know when to shut up, and most importantly, not one of them would dream of hurting my career for personal gain. My crazy uncles care more about the success of the next generation than they do about their own future. None of these statements apply to the current Jeremiah Wright. Calling him a crazy uncle is an insult to crazy uncles.
