Video obtained exclusively by The Daily Caller shows Illinois Senator Barack Obama, then campaigning for Democrats before the 2006 midterm elections, praising Reverend Jeremiah Wright and telling an audience that he “stole” the title of his book “The Audacity of Hope” from Wright’s sermon of the same name, which he “loved.” Obama also referred to Wright as “my pastor.”

Whoa, is this vetting? Is this what it looks like?! Well...a wee little bit of vetting maybe? A smidgeon? Hey, at least it's something...better late than never I guess right?

I would guess this falls under common knowledge.  I beleive the book itself admits this little factoid ( Yeah, I tried to read it- got to chapter 3 on Constitutional law, and decided I knew all I needed to know about this guy- that he was an anti-american, anti-white racist, un-proven  fascist socialist marxist who would be a disaster of a leader - especailly at the cross orads we found ourselves at last election. Sadly, he is worse that I thought he would be. He is a true beleiver in the Eric Hoffer sense, and all the more dangerous for it.

Common knowledge? Yeah, to those of us that examine all of this stuff. But it's not because we saw it in the MSM or heard it there. It's because we read about it in some obscure blog or something that we intentionally went looking for. Granted, the Daily Caller isn't exactly CBS or anything but still, your average person just doesn't know this stuff and they really should be exposed to it on the MSM no matter the political leanings of the candidate!

None is this will hurt him in the least, his true believers don't care and the apologists will only shrug.  Only an avalanche of information could bury this usurper!!!
