Denver Post steps into Obama/Wright controversy, ignores McCain/Hagee

The Denver Post had to open their big mouth and try to impugn Barack Obama with the Reverend Jeremiah Wright's ignorant statements. Or rather, Dean Singleton probably forced Dan Haley to do the dirty work:

Obama's handling of this mess not only calls into question his judgment, but eventually could strike at the core of whether he's fit to be president.

Obama explained his change of heart with regards to Wright:

"The insensitivity and the outrageousness of the statements shocked me and surprised me," Obama said. Wright's rants, he continued, contradict "everything that I'm about and who I am. . . . The person I saw yesterday was not the person that I met 20 years ago."

The Post didn't believe him and questions Barack's judgement:

Instead, the senator has struggled to explain away his relationship with Wright for months, and it's only raised more questions for voters about who Obama surrounds himself with and who might have his ear as president.

Do they have the same questions of John McCain's judgement? Not yet.

Here's a whole compendium of stories on McCain and his favorite End Times Pastor John Hagee, including McCain courting the endorsement, Hagee saying girls can get abortions in public school, and more that the Post can use to start the process:

Plenty of material there for the Denver Post and our local media covering the Prez's. But Media Matters is right in questioning when, if ever, they'll step up and ask similarly tough questions of the man whose endorsement John McCain actively sought.
