Clintons, are they friends of Rev. Wright?
April 29, 2008 | Vetting explained
iReport — 
When my contact sent me this picture, I was pretty shocked. Yes, that is Rev. Wright, the former pastor of Barack Obama, on the left, shaking Bill Clinton's hand. And get this: 
My contact who sent me these documents is a "Washington Insider." She attends and creates a lot of events in D.C., and knows the kind of people who would come across documents such as these as a part of doing political business. A friend of my contact sent her these documents with the note: "President Clinton and Rev. Jeremiah Wright... at White House breakfast during the 'Monica Mess.' I have no problem with Rev. Wright. I do have a problem with Clintonian hypocrisy." Not just anyone gets invited to a White House breakfast where they can shake the hand of the President. These events are carefully engineered to curry favor with people politicos think can help them.
