You have to be smarter than to play into the hands of the enemy. Black folks may have been laughing and applauding, but Americas puppetmasters were dancing a jig.

Black folks who can think beyond their asses weren't really laughing and applauding, though.
Tom Joyner talked about Wright again today and was shaking his head at Wright throwing up the hooks and acting a fool. Wright gets props for being influential in Chicago and other places. That's not forgotten. But his image is overshadowing his hard work and now he's no better than those flashy Cleflo Dollar-type pastors, as far as I'm concerned.
