If I were Barack Obama, I would start shopping for a new church. What kind of Christian church allows preachers to rant, using racist and sexist remarks?
The newest "bimbo eruption" or in this case "preacher eruption" was another "old friend" of Obama's from the south side of Chicago. He also happens to be a Catholic priest. I grew up Catholic, and let me assure you, there were things that just didn't happen. One, we didn't have guest preachers of different denominations, and we certainly did not have sexist and racist rantings coming from the mouth of a priest.
So Fr. Pfleger and Obama have been friends since Obama's days as a street organizer in Chicago. After watching the video, me thinks Obama doesn't know his "friends" very well.
Claire:
The scarier question is, did he know his friends all too well? It can be a problem with a blank slate candidate. It is easy to denounce and repudiate.
