Hillary: Wright "Would Not Have Been My Pastor"
Talking Points Memo ^

Hillary: Wright "Would Not Have Been My Pastor" By Greg Sargent - March 25, 2008, 1:21PM

Okay, here we go. In an interview today with reporters and editors of the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review, Hillary made what I think are her first extensive critical remarks about the Jeremiah Wright controversy, suggesting that Obama should have moved to another church in response to Wright's comments...

"He would not have been my pastor," Clinton said. "You don't choose your family, but you choose what church you want to attend."...

The Clinton campaign has refrained from getting involved in the controversy, but Clinton herself, responding to a question, denounced what she said was "hate speech."

"You know, I spoke out against Don Imus (who was fired from his radio and television shows after making racially insensitive remarks), saying that hate speech was unacceptable in any setting, and I believe that," Clinton said. "I just think you have to speak out against that. You certainly have to do that, if not explicitly, then implicitly by getting up and moving."

Here's to keeping Obama’s spiritual advisor in the news until the election.

"He would not have been my pastor," Clinton said.

He would have if he'd written her a big enough check.

He would have been her pastor had she been an aspiring black politician from Chicago. It’s all part of the Chicago machine.

“I wouldn’t have ducked under sniper fire”, said Obama, “I would have stood, brave and tall”.

Since Hillary would not have Wright be her pastor, we should look up the career of ultra-liberal Bishop Joseph Sprague, recently of Illinois also. Sprague was a Methodist, as is Hillary, and I’d bet they have contacts.

My guess is that Sprague also had contacts with Wright. Anyone know?
