Hitchens on Wright

This was a featured quote of the day in the WSJ's Political Diary. Thought I'd pass on:

"The consequence [of Barack Obama's speech on race], which you can already feel, is an inchoate resentment among many white voters who are damned if they will be called bigots by a man who associates with Jeremiah Wright. So here we go with all that again. And this is the fresh, clean, new post-racial politics?"

--Christopher Hitchens, writing at Slate.com on Barack Obama's relationship with Rev. Wright.
