The defenses keep rolling
in for Rev. Jeremiah Wright. Perry Mason himself couldn’t come up with such
creative cases. Have you heard the
latest? Wright loves America. Honestly, he does! That’s why he’s so critical of America.
Wow! Hmm…Yeah...That’s a good one. I have to wonder though: If this is the way
he talks when he loves America,
what on earth would he say if he hated America?
I don’t think there are any hateful, bitter, or inflammatory words left. He’s
used them all up.
Let’s see: Because Wright loves America,
he said that America
is deserving of 9/11 and America
invented the AIDS virus. That’s how he expresses his love for America.
This is like a man calling his wife a prostitute and then saying, “Now I can
talk like this to you because I love you.” No, I take back the analogy. Because
the explanation of “harsh talk due to tough love” has never been offered by
Wright. It’s only offered by Wright’s supporters who are learning that “denial
is more than a river in Egypt.”
I suppose anything is possible. Maybe this is the way
Wright shows love. If so, I guess when he gave an award to the NAZI, Louis
Farrakhan, that was his way of showing disapproval.
