Rev. Wright Seeks Revenge for Obama’s ‘Betrayal

Wright first became disillusioned with Obama last year when Obama unexpectedly barred him from participation in the public announcement of his presidential campaign.

“After 20 years of loving Barack like he was a member of his own family, for Jeremiah to see Barack saying over and over that he didn’t know about Jeremiah’s views during those years, that he wasn’t familiar with what Jeremiah had said, that he may have missed church on this day or that and didn’t hear what Jeremiah said, this is seen by Jeremiah as nonsense and betrayal,” a source with ties to Wright told the Post’s Fredric Dicker.

After Obama was “embraced by this congregation as a brother in Christ, after his pastor was a father figure to him and gave him credibility in a city he had not grown up in, and in a black community that was suspect of someone from Hawaii and Harvard, he thanks him by not allowing him to speak publicly at his announcement last year?”

“Rev. Wright, as well as other senior members of his church, believe Obama has betrayed over 20 years of their supposed friendship.”

Update:

will he betray America as well?

    This is so stupid and irrelevant to him being worthy or capable as a president. I am a black woman who has a very close white friend who is married to a man who still uses the "N" word on a regular basis! Do I disassociate with my friend because of her husband's racist language or views? No. She is not him. She is a great person married to a man who she differs from on many issues. We all have friends and associates that have views that we do not necessarily agree with, this is common. Move on!

    I'll take Hillary Clinton. Obama is tied to Rev. Wright and McCain is tied to John Hagee and Rod Parsley. Hillary has no such baggage.
