    I don't quite understand. Wright's remarks were quite old and were only newsworthy insofar as they relected on Obama. The only news developments I can think of worth reporting on, outside of Obama's relationship with Wright, is when the tapes of his sermons were first "discovered" (and I'm sure everyone reported on it) and when Wright did the interview that made everything worse (and I'm sure everyone reported on that too).

    I'd drive a million miles
    To be with you tonight
    So if youre feeling low
    Turn up your radio
    The words we use are strong
    They make reality
    But now the musics on
    Oh baby dance with me

    Rip it up - move down
    Rip it up - move it down to the ground
    Rip it up - cool down
    Rip it up - and get the feeling not the word

    Chorus:
    Oh everybody have fun tonight
    Everybody have fun tonight
    Everybody wang chung tonight
    Everybody have fun tonight
    Everybody wang chung tonight
    Everybody have fun

    Deep in the world tonight
    Our hearts beat safe and sound
    Ill hold you so close
    Just let yourself go down

    Rip it up - move down
    Rip it up - move it down to the ground
    Rip it up - cool down
    Rip it up - get the feeling not the word

    Repeat chorus

    On the edge of oblivion
    All the world is babylon
    And all the love and everyone
    A ship of fools sailing on

    Across the nation, around the world
    Everybody have fun tonight
    A celebration so spread the word

    Wright's words are only newsworthy because of his relationship to Obama. Wright himself was never newsworthy on a large scale.

    IS there something similar between Tim McVeigh and Jeremiah Wright?

    I think you are having problems answering the question for some reason.

    Please don't dishonor the people who lost their lives to McVeigh in the terrorist act he executed, and a crazy guy who uses free speech, but never advocated harm to anyone, nor broke any laws.

    Yes I do see. Out of that list I count 7 blog or opinion pieces. The vast majority are from the news section. And as I said that list is not comprehensive, only the first 4 pages of the search.

    So when you said there was "no MSM reporting of Trinity" what you really meant was "there was a sh_t load of MSM reporting of Trinity but the stories did'nt meet my wingnut standards."

    just for you basso:

    You tell me theres an angel in your tree
    Did he say he'd come to call on me
    For things are getting desperate in our home
    Living in the parish of the restless folks I know

    Everybody now bring your family down to the riverside
    Look to the east to see where the fat stock hide
    Behind four walls of stone the rich man sleeps
    Its time we put the flame torch to their keep

    Burn down the mission
    If were gonna stay alive
    Watch the black smoke fly to heaven
    See the red flame light the sky

    Burn down the mission
    Burn it down to stay alive
    Its our only chance of living
    Take all you need to live inside

    Deep in the woods the squirrels are out today
    My wife cried when they came to take me away
    But what more could I do just to keep her warm
    Than burn burn burn burn down the mission walls

    Typical.

    McVeigh is the same as Jeremiah Wright.

    Anne Coulter wishing McVeigh had bombed the NYTimes building is the same as Michael Moore's partisan films.

    A Repub Congressman propositioning little boys is the same as a Dem Congressman being gay.

    Bush lying about Iraq is the same as Clinton lying about Lewinsky.

    Bush invading Iraq under false premises is the same as Clinton saying Iraq's a problem.

    As I said, typical... but no less disgusting.

    Or Bill Ayers saying he had regrets about his activities, and that he didn't intend to hurt anyone, or the fact that BILL AYERS ISN'T CONNECTED IN ANY MEANINGFUL WAY TO OBAMA

    I think you have a place in the D & D which is why I didn't vote in Batman Jone's poll but c'mon you know better than this.

    You kicked off a Wright thread with an article from the very MSM (ABC News) that you are now claiming didn't report on Wright.
