In an interview that aired Friday on ABC's "The View" -- excerpts of which aired on CNN on Thursday night -- Obama talks about Wright's reaction to the controversy.

"Had the reverend not retired and had he not acknowledged that what he had said had deeply offended people and were inappropriate and mischaracterized what I believe is the greatness of this country, for all its flaws, then I wouldn't have felt comfortable staying there at the church," the senator said.

Get it? Barack Obama said that had Jeremiah Wright not acknowledged that what he said was offensive, inappropriate, and untrue that he would have left TUCC. In other words, Obama is claiming that Wright expressed regret about what he said. The problem is that the Wright we have all seen recently does not seem to regret anything he has said. Please explain this to me.
