Noonan not bothered by Wright

In today's columns, published in the Wall Street Journal, Peggy Noonan says she thinks Preacher Wright is wrong but she isn't bothered by him. She says it's OK for blacks to cling to their anger over slavery because she and her fellow Irish cling to their anger over the treatment the English inflicted on them. Really, both are symptomatic of paranoia. Both need to get over it. The Irish most likely have, despite what Noonan says.

Wright is a threat to black people if other black preachers are like him and black church-goers believe what such black preachers preach. Wright-thinking and preaching keeps blacks down. To rise up, they need to abandon such thinking and preaching.
