Sal, I think that Michael Moore may be overstating the Clinton/Wright penitent/priest relationship. There was a Youtube video,
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hED5h5EAl28 that shows Bill Clinton shaking hands with Rev. Wright who was one of dozens of clergy invited to a very public prayer breakfast just as the Ken Starr report was being released, but I don't think that there was anything of a spiritual advisor relationship more established than that. The commentary in the video is from an MSNBC edition of Countdown, I think. ** --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, Sal Sunshine <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > On Apr 21, 2008, at 9:40 AM, Marek Reavis wrote: > > > Thanks for posting this, Louis. > > I agree, Marek--a great one.
