See? It's Not Just Me

It seems I'm not the only one peeved about Jerimiah Wright being invited to Selma's Bloody Sunday event.

Alabama Democratic Rep. Artur Davis is criticizing Selma organizers for inviting President Barack Obama's former Chicago pastor, the Rev. Jeremiah Wright, to this year's commemoration of the "Bloody Sunday" civil rights march.

Davis said giving the pastor a prominent role in the event is inconsistent with its theme. Wright's comments about whites and racism in America sparked outrage during last year's campaign.

Organizers announced this week that Wright would be invited to the march.
