It's not Pfleger, it's Obama's church that is the problem
You know what really pops a person right between the eyes in seeing these Obama "friends and mentors".... It's how the Church where Obama went for 20 years cheers on these racists. This guy Pfleger plays to the gallery and the gallery whoops and hollers with frolicking glee - Seemingly egging each other on in their contempt for white America. Obama's church is racist. It's not Jeremiah Wright; it's not Michael Pfleger - It's the hate and the racism of these people in that church...
Obama comes from a place where RACE is the driving issue. It defines these people for ill. His church disqualifies Obama from being President - plain and simple. Twenty years there is outrageous. He has a complete and total lack of any sense of judgment - at all.
Prediction: Barak Obama, if elected, will be the biggest divider in American history. We now know from whence he comes - We now understand his pedigree.

Pfleger back in the spotlight

Rev. Michael Pfleger, the latest clergyman to offer a racially tinged commentary on the Democratic presidential race, has long rattled nerves in Chicago with his outspoken activism and his firebrand message of social justice.
His rebellious style has set him apart from Chicago's Roman Catholic clergy as far back as Pfleger's seminary days, when he protested the Vietnam War and befriended Black Panthers on the city's West Side.
But it also helped the priest, who is white, turn the once-dwindling congregation at St. Sabina into a thriving, predominantly African-American parish. More than 2,100 parishioners call St. Sabina, at the corner of South Racine Avenue and West 78th Place, their spiritual home.
The priest's latest controversial remarks underscore the long-standing tension between Pfleger and Chicago's power brokers, including its archbishops.
