Andy Borowitz breaks the story in the Huffington Post:
In an act that campaign insiders said indicated an irrevocable break with his former pastor, Sen. Barack Obama today de-friended the Rev. Jeremiah Wright on Facebook.
It looks like all the fears about the divisiveness within the Democratic party are, if anything, understated. I didn’t realize how bad it had gotten. According to Obama campaign strategist David Axelrod:
“Every day, Rev. Wright was sending Sen. Obama new Facebook applications like ‘What Superhero Are You?’ and ‘What 1980’s Toy Are You?’” Mr. Axelrod said. “After awhile, enough is enough.”
Yeah really.
The One Million Strong for Barack group is reeling over the news. Discussion here. Thanks to Wintana for posting this — there’s been a disgraceful lack of coverage in the mainstream media.
