Who knew one guy could have so many blatant racist friends as Barack Obama has? Who knew one guy could have so many friends on the far extreme of leftwing society?
Father Pfleger, a Louis Farrakan loving, America hating, white racist priest from Chicago has made recent infamous remarks at the pulpit of Barack’s church (you can find video in the May 31st post). But these are not his only racist rants, there’s more below (email viewers go here):
After these appalling tapes came to light, BO forced his friend Father Pfleger to issue a non-apology, apology. And today, the leadership of the Catholic church finally acted. This from the AP:
Priest who mocked Clinton told to take a leave
CHICAGO – Cardinal Francis George asked a Chicago priest on Tuesday to temporarily step down from his post to “reflect on his recent statements” regarding Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton and her bid for the White House.
Last week, the Rev. Michael Pfleger mocked Clinton at Sen. Barack Obama’s former church, saying the New York senator felt “entitled” to the Democratic nomination for president
George asked Pfleger to take leave from pastoral duties at St. Sabina Church in order to “reflect on his recent statements and actions in the light of the church’s regulations for all Catholic priests,” according to a statement Tuesday from the Archdiocese of Chicago.
Officials have said the Catholic Church does not endorse political candidates.
The leave was effective Tuesday and was scheduled to last about two weeks, said Archdiocese spokeswoman Susan Burritt.
“This is the Cardinal’s way of hopefully relieving some of the pressure, to step away and reflect a little bit. That is the intent here,” she said. “This has been a difficult week in light of everything that’s happened.”
Pfleger, who has promised George he would no longer mention any presidential candidates by name, did not believe “this to be the right step at this time,” according to the statement.
“While respecting his disagreement, I have nevertheless asked him to use this opportunity to reflect,” George said in the statement. “I hope that this period will also be a time away from the public spotlight and for rest and attention to family concerns.”
Good riddance to this arrogant little jerk… he should be excommunicated.
