Lemme see...you have made it clear you think of me as stupid, arrogant, and spewing hate. And now you want to ignore my rudeness??? Ya know, I have gopne out of my way not to be rude to you, except in the rare instances where you have directly and overtly said something insulting, because I admire your independent spirit and point of view when you are not being spiteful. But I can be easily persuaded not to extend any more olive branches if you really prefer playing dirtball.

As for the point of the thread, you err in identifying Wright as a surrogate. And as for your point about friends, I think it says a lkot about Obama that he is willing to stay in commubnication with people who have tripped up politically, because he knopws perfectly wellt hat the knee-jerk reactions of the media do NOT reflect wither the ground truth or the way most people would actually feel, were they fully aware of the details of the story, about them. Because he demonstrates a personal loyalty independent of his political decisions is no reason to predict cataclysm for him.
