So did Obama attend the Wright " I hate America " Sermon afterall?

I read the transcript of the Rev.Wright speech and I don't see anything racist in it at all. What he said is true. Why are people so upset with it?

...it's called sensationalism. When reality fails to produce the results you like, stir the emotions of the easily swayed through lies and hyperbolic spectacle. It's won many a campaign...
