Obama/McCain Quickies
Someone in the media (last links) actually listened to and summarized the two main speeches that got Rev. Wright in trouble. The result provides a complex look that still is troubling, but in part because he is right enough to trouble. This should have been done ALL OVER, but that's too much to ask these days. Nice words on a "decent respect for the opinion of mankind" McCain, but consistent support of Bush etc. makes them thin ones.
