"I'm outraged by the comments that were made and saddened over the spectacle that we saw yesterday," Mr. Obama said.
What was it about Jeremiah Wright's speech at the National Press Club that so "outraged" Barack Obama?
It wasn't about "God damn America!" because Obama had already heard it, and he didn't get "outraged." He threw his grandmother under the bus instead.
It wasn't the federal government inventing AIDS to exterminate black people, because Obama had already heard that, too.
But Obama's mysterious "outrage" is easy to understand for anybody who knows a few actors.
"The fact that Reverend Wright would think that somehow it was appropriate to command the stage for three or four consecutive days in the midst of this major debate is something that not only makes me angry, but also saddens me," Mr. Obama said.
"Get off my stage!"
So the political actor Barack Obama finally showed some genuine emotion, instead of his usual "inspirational" posing, and it wasn't about politics, because Obama had already heard all of Jeremiah Wright's politics a long time ago.
Obama had a hissy fit because another drama queen upstaged him, and now...
The show must go on!
