Father Michael Pfleger Defends Jeremiah Wright
YouTube - fox news owned

Video of interview with Fr. Michael Pfleger, talking about his friend Jeremiah Wright. I don't know what the reporter from Fox expected, but he sure didn't expect this.

(He put Fox News In Their Place!)

that was good. that reporter was indeed the classic 'bumbling idiot.' his questions were based purely on conjecture with no real intelligent presentation.

I saw this a couple of weeks ago....I wonder if that rookie they sent up to get that tongue lashing is still employed. It sounded like he was about to cry at one point. Father Michael just owned him throughout the whole thing.

Well...what else can be said? I'll tell you this. FOX news has an entirely new perspective about Catholic priests and who they send to interview them having obviously underestimated Father Pfleger. I have to admit, I watched this clip with a pair of biased eyes-I have no love for FOX news, especially that Bill O'Rielly, so I rather enjoyed watching the script being flipped and Fox put on blast. I hope I'm not wrong for that. The other thing that I found rather amusing....Who was the guy standing behind Pfleger? Was he the father's muscle? LOL! Peace and blessings family!

It is illuminating to keep in mind, as you listen to this video, that Obama referred to Pfleger's now infamous sermon as "devisive, backward-looking rhetoric."

And, also, as you watch Pfleger's defense of Wright, keep in mind that Obama's characterization of Wright's words were "a bunch of rants that aren't grounded in the truth".

And, as you watch this video, keep in mind that Obama's characterization of Wright was "what mattered to him was commanding center stage".

And, yet, most black people will vote for Obama come November, as will both Pfleger and Wright. There is something _seriously_ wrong with the way Americans think.

Yes. But, as you can probably tell from my posts, I am on a journey of Self realization which leads me away from identifying Self as a black man, or as an American.

There is no greater external threat against world peace in this mortal realm than the United States of America. American citizens, including black american citizens, have the power to reign in our government. But, so far, we have collectively failed to live up to our responsiblities.

In particular, black americans among all americans are best positioned to lead America away from her wicked. For, who knows better than us the dark side of the Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave?

To our shame, we are currently failing miserably to live up to the role we were raised up, in the belly of Babylon, to perform.

Istlota,

What you just said is undeniable and compelling. But what's even sadder, is that many of us don't even care. It's too easy not to. And because we, as a people keep doing what's easy, our kids will continue to harvest the unhealthy seeds we have sown.

Blacks can't even see what is happening right before their eyes; we are rebuking and turning our backs on spiritual leaders of our nation. leaders that have helped us go from slavery to the freedoms we enjoy today. We have chosen to verbally beat down these leaders that have long and verifiable records of great deeds in our community, for a half-breed that has self-serving and political motives. This is the modern black psyche. Because we have drank the collective Koolaid of mediocrity and cognitive laziness, we want our spiritual leaders to 'tone it down' and do the same.

So next year, let's see how blacks will be 'better off'. I'm waiting to see the Koolaid drinkers show the minority of blacks that dare not poison our minds with ignorant slave/herd mentalities, the error of our ways.

Many of us wouldn't know what Pro-Black was if it rode up on a bus and opened the door to invite us on board.
