I was out of commission for a couple of weeks, so I'm coming to the Obama/Wright story from behind.

I started with Obama's speech, declining to read any reviews or analyses of it beforehand.

Then I sought Jeremiah Wright's sermon that was at the center of the controversy.

I found nothing there that was so inflammatory, nothing that would have prompted Obama to give the speech that he did. But I guess that's what I get for not getting swept up in the media spin.

Edit: As others have pointed out, I ran across a different Wright sermon--however, one that was very cogent and uncontroversial. So, as for the one that is at question, can anyone tell me its name so I can search for it properly?

Further edit: ljdemocrats had this nearly 10-min clip of the "9/11 sermon".
