What a drama queen! I love that he's telling US to deal with OUR racist & sexist biases! Too rich!!

Watch the video at the link. The next video report after that is on Trinity UCC's reaction to Obama's departure.

“I apologize for the words that I chose. I apologize for my dramatization that was for many who do not know me simply typical dramatics that I use all the time in sermons,” Pfleger said.”

That was a sermon? Because I failed to notice the love of Christ anywhere in it.

[Virginia Ridgerunner]

Pfleger sounded off giving a sermon entitled "Beyond YouTube," chiding the media and the Web site, saying the clip of his sermon at Trinity United Church of Christ did not convey the meaning of his message.

Who does this guy think he's fooling? His remarks at Trinity were crystal clear, and now he' blaming Youtube because they blew up in his face? What a loser!

Whenever someone goes way overboard and essentially attacks millions of people, they always try to turn it around and pretend THEY are the ones being attacked, and they always bring up e-mailed death threats.

As if every person who ever gets into public doesn’t get an e-mailed threat once in a while. Once I had nice people suggesting it would be great if buses carrying troops home would have run me over.

[Mr. Mojo]

he's received more than 3,000 threatening emails – some calling for his death.

What goes around, comes around you POS.

“..............simply typical dramatics that I use all the time in sermons...........”

So your sermons are embellished BS is what you’re saying?

[TCats]

"chiding the media and the Web site, saying the clip of his sermon at Trinity United Church of Christ did not convey the meaning of his message."

What other meaning could anyone with above a 70 IQ attribute to this disgusting display of hate and racism.

Obama has some very, very unbalanced and hateful associates - A fact that will undoubtedly get full play in the coming months. As well it should.

[Albion Wilde]

Defended himself. Complained that he already apologized. Guess that’s it for him in the penance department.

[Mr. Mojo]

Father Pfleger also said that the last few days have been more painful than the murder of his foster son.

Pretty sick sentiments.

[ishabibble]

That was an apology?

[RDTF]

Exactly. He needs to be ex-communicated.

[2ndDivisionVet]

How does a Catholic priest have children, foster or otherwise? Could someone explain this to me?

[Non-Sequitur]

Pfleger told the crown he's not racist or sexist...

Of course he isn't.

[Altura Ct.]

Pfleger told the crown he's not racist or sexist and called on the nation to deal with those biases.,p> Do they not know any other mode? In typical fashion blame anyone but yourself.

[ButThreeLeftsDo]

Atta boy, Mojo.....

Keep this story front and center!!!

[kcat]

“...more painful than the murder of his foster son.”..........Whaaaaaaat??????????? What IS going on here?

[jmaroneps37]

The Roman Church is short on priests, but we would still be better off without this one.

[Miss Didi]

Doesn't your parish website look like this?
