Rev. Wright Apologizes - Or Does He?

Did Senator Obama mis-speak?

In appearance taped for airing this morning on "The View," Senator Obama makes news by saying he might have left Chicago's Trinity United Church of Christ if the Rev. Jeremiah Wright had not retired.

In a clip posted by ABC, Obama says: 'Had the reverend not retired, and had he not acknowledged that what he had said had deeply offended people and were inappropriate and mischaracterized what I believe is the greatness of this country -- for all its flaws -- then I wouldn't have felt comfortable staying there at the church."

In Obama's speech in Philadelphia last week, he said: "I can no more disown him than I can disown the black community."

According to Senator Obama, he would have left if Rev. Wright had not resigned AND apologized, or acknowledged that he was wrong. The Politico seems to miss it, and apparently, so did the crack investigative news team at "The View" who never asked, "When did Rev. Wright apologize?"
