I have all along questioned the story behind the story of the Obama-Reverend Wright relationship. I have questioned the statement and retractions made by the infamous Rev. Now comes this news piece. In a radio interview today, Obama's controversial former pastor back peddled fast and furious to clarify his latest incendiary comments after a sermon Tuesday night at Hampton University in Virginia. He told a reporter covering the event for the Daily Press of Newport News that he hasn't spoken to Obama since he became president. "Them Jews ain't going to let him talk to me. I told my baby daughter that he'll talk to me in five years when he's a lame duck, or in eight years when he's out of office," said Wright. "They will not let him to talk to somebody who calls a spade what it is. ... I said from the beginning: He's a politician; I'm a pastor. He's got to do what politicians do."
In the interview today on SIRIUS XM radio, Wright said he meant to say "Zionists," rather than Jews and that he was taken out of context during a rushed interview as he was walking to his car.
"I am not talking about all Jews, all people of the Jewish faith. I’m talking about Zionists," Wright said.
If you may recall, Obama resigned from Trinity Church and cut ties with Wright after videos surfaced during the presidential campaign showing Wright in the pulpit shouting "God damn America" and accusing the government of creating AIDS.
