The million dollar question to Obama is why now ... after 20 years ... do you find this rhetoric offensive?  Obama's problem is that he puts on an empty suit and tries to define political correctness. 

I don’t know why the Catholic Church puts up with this guy.  He embraces “black liberation theology” … something their last Pope said was something like “Marxism disguised as Christianity” and preaches hate.  This is not the message of Jesus Christ.  They should fire him.  Yeah, I know he is a single father (he adopted a couple of boys) but life’s tough when you make a living hating.

A: Because it is in the best interest of his career.

Update: Michael Pflueger explains his comments this way:

He didn’t think the service and his “conversation” — a more casual address than a classic sermon, he explained — were being broadcast live online, as Trinity often does.

“They told me it was down,” Pfleger said. “Their live streaming had been down all day, and they didn’t know whether it was back up. . . . I regret the dramatization that I was naive enough to believe was just going to be kept among that church.”

Translation:

It's OK to incite the locals to hate whitey and America, I just didn't want everyone else to know I am a racist, socialist, whack job.

Yep!

He strokes his ego as he preaches hate.  It is a real shame that the message of love that Jesus Christ has is lost in the translation of this verbal masturbation.

I just wrote Michael Pfleger at St. Sabinas (saintsabina.org) a note.  From what his "apology" at their web site stated, he has received tons of death threats and ... imagine this ... called a raciest and a sexist. 


Thanks for the apology. 

I still don't understand why you preach hate instead of His Word?  Your ego and willingness to placate people with your verbal masturbation is not Christian. 

Didn’t you have just the slightest light go on when you wrote that sermon (and others) that what you were saying … whether it was recorded or not … was wrong? 

Again, it appears that it’s either your ego, ignorance of faith or combination of both that binds you to the same punch line. 

All the same, you are in my prayers.

Bottom line, if any person in the business world said what he said, they would be fired.

Just saw on Yahoo news, The Bishop told him to take some time out, I mean off    But it was for saying Hillery felt she was "entitled" to the nomination
