Obamarama . . .

Back in town: White House political strategist David Axelrod and wife, Susan, hit the Gene Siskel Film Center Sunday night for a screening of the film "Radical Disciple: The Story of Father Pfleger" -- followed by a dinner at Petterino's eatery accompanied by a low-key Secret Service detail.

I don’t know much about Axelrod, but this canonization of Father Pfleger suggests that Axelrod is another radical leftist.

Father Pfffffffffffffffffleger is an abomination
to the Catholic Church and to God. How he can be
allowed to administer his bastardized brand of
Catholicism and fuel the fires of racial hate by
the Cardinal is simply beyond me.

Ebert is a far-out liberal.

Cardinal George has received death threats.

Pfleger is tied to the gangs and other criminal elements in Chicago.

Connect the dots.
