THE BLOGGERS WHO

are looking closest at the Jeremiah Wright - Barack Obama relationship are fairly uniform in their considered judgment that Barack Obama is not being honest in his comments about his 20 years of close political and "spiritual" association with the anti-white and anti-American minister of Obama's self-chosen church -- see for example the analysis of Tom Maguire, Steve Sailer, Sister Toldjah, AllahPundit, Little Green Footballs and Protein Wisdom.

And let me concur.  Obama's dishonesty jumps off the screen if you now the details of the Obama- Wright relationship, very often as described by Obama himself.  Most particularly, Obama has identified Wright as one of his closest political advisers, and he's described a bit of the context and significance of that advice.  Yet in this piece Obama completely denies the existence of that relationship.  With the record being so public and so well established, the audacity of the Obama lie astonishes.

For those of us who are paying attention, what becomes most striking about the Obama personality as his character comes into view is Obama's extraordinary talent for b*ulls*tting people (I use b*llsh*tting in the technical sense of philosopher Harry Frankfurt).

UPDATE:  Speaking of an extraordinary talent for b*llshi*t, I noticed the same thing Rich Lowry did.
