I heard CNN going with this crap at lunch, though pretending to actually be "journalists" and admit it was old news. Oh but those references to Reverend Wright are sooooooooo damning to the President!!!! (Please)

Our media just makes me sick, Limbaugh and the right wing idiots spew and the so-called mainstream media clean the worst of the filth off and go with it. Disgusting. The good part is that without going full racist, and in admitting this was old news, CNN managed to create the most confusing mess of a non-story I've ever heard. I seriously doubt anyone who heard it that wasn't a 'bagger or a birther would not pay it any attention, it just wasn't worth trying to figure out what they were getting at.
