Sean Hannity, the right wing propagandist mouth piece, a loathsome and evil fellow, worked hard to launch Jeremiah Wright as Obama's version of the swift boat attack scheme.
It's quite clear what the overall strategy of the Jeremiah Wright plot is all about. Having observed that Barack Obama is a formidable candidate on the brink of demolishing the vaunted Clinton political machine, the right wing republican operatives have kicked off vicious personal attacks against Obama in order to weaken and destroy him.
Guilt by association is the obvious tactics being employed by the right wing and neo-con operatives. The idea is to invoke racial hatred and incite the anger of the fragile independent white voters to turn against Obama the black candidate.
Choosing Jeremiah Wright as the bait for the hate Obama campaign is a grievious mistake because Jeremiah Wright is a brilliant, fearless and combative preacher with a mission to remain the conscience of America that keeps on ticking.
Jeremiah Wright is being demonized for telling the truth about the ills of American foreign and domestic policies that have brought great harm to the country. The future security and economic prosperity of America is in serious danger if things don't change in the positive direction.
Attacking Jeremiah Wright to get to Obama will backfire. The reverend Wright will not be silenced. He will continue to tell the bitter truth that will continue to prick the conscience of a nation entrapped by ignorance and apathy and lead by a bunch of reckless, mindless and corrupt politicians.
The Obama campaign is worried sick and wish that the reverend Wright disappears into dark matter. This is wrong thinking. That's what the right wing republicans want. They want to be able to spin the issue without contest and force Obama to be on the defensive.
The best way to counter the republican onslaught is to go on a full scale counter offensive. Turn the reverend loose and let him keep delivering his message to the people. The republicans don’t want the reality of their failed policy to be pronounced so vigorously as only the reverend can.
What the Obama camp can't do is to play weak on any game the opponents present. Obama is in a position of strength and he should drive his adversaries into the earth. Don't dump the reverend. Let truth reign

Stop the war, Democrats can't do
What war? This is not war. Somebody aptly called it "Bumper sticker war" and indeed, that's what it is.
To call the Iraq escapade a war is a mockery of the highest order and an assault upon our collective intelligence.
There are lots to be gained from this military adventure namely, money, power and influence.
Those who profit from the spoils of this adventure are the privileged few found along the corridors of politics in Washington and corporate boardrooms across the globe.
Just as well, there are losers as a result of this misadventure. Losers are the soldiers who continue to lose their lives and limbs and their families and friends who pay the ultimate price.
Losers are the tens of thousands of innocent Iraqis who die without a cause other than being the unfortunate victims of circumstances thrust upon them by the cruel hands of fate.
Losers are the American people who continue to work hard to build fortunes that are squandered without accountability.
Losers are Americans whose quest for national resources to invest in their future education, health care, infra structure and economy are considered entitlements slated to be chopped by pandering politicians.
Losers are Americans who continue to be stripped of their liberties in exchange for security that can't be guaranteed.
Losers are Americans who continue to live in fear of a bearded monster that can not be sighted, ensnared nor silenced.
Losers are Americans who vote to effect change only to be disregarded as hapless morons with chips they are bound to cast without the benefit of a return on their investment.
With all things considered, what incentives are there to stop this "war"? So long as winners continue to win and losers continue to lose and there is no shift in the balance of power, the status quo will remain.
So, ask your leading candidates for president what they can do for you and not what you can do to give them power.
If a candidate ever voted to put you in the loser column by voting for the Iraq war, remember that as you cast your vote. I have not mentioned Hillary, not once in this diary.
