FATHER MICHAEL PFLEGER Sticking Up for Rev. Jeremiah Wright and Min. Louis Farrakhan

PFLEGER: He has — first of all, he has not called Judaism a gutter religion of bloodsuckers. That is not what he has said because I have heard that talk. I stick up for Louis Farrakhan because he is another person that the media has chosen to define how they want to do it. And they demonize how they want to demonize somebody. I know the man, Louis Farrakhan. He is a great man. I have great respect for him. He has done an awful lot for people and this country, black, white and brown. He's a friend of mine. BERRY: But he's also a bigot. PFLEGER: No, no. BERRY: He's also a hater. PFLEGR: He didn't say he's a big — he is not a bigot and he's not a hater. That's what you call him. It is interesting to me that when white people criticize America, they're critical. When black people criticize America, they're haters of America.

His guy is so full of poop, he may as well be Obama and Selma or Hill and Bosnia. He rants during the interview that he "knew MLK Jr". Exactly what type of kinship did this snotty nosed jr high student form with one of the most sought after civil rights guru of the 1965?

What disingenuous dilbert.

There are a handful of white people that I have to take my hat off to and Father Michael Pfleger is one of them. It's a shame that some white man have more b...s than some Black man when it comes to standing up and speaking out on behalf of Freedom, Justice and Equality. John Brown was another great white man, who will always be remembered for his stance against slavery and injustice.
I believe there are a number of young white males who no longer believe the ideology and racist teachings of their demented fathers. Do I believe there are enough of them to make a change, to make America a "color blind" society? NO. http://www.foxnews.com/video2/video08.html...

Wow he believes that Farrakhan isn't a bigot? Wacko alert, this guy probably thinks Hitler was mis-characterized by the media as well.

There is one main difference between Father PFLEGER and John Brown. John Brown wasn't against the use of guns for self-defense while PFLEGER is against anyone posessing firearms unless your the police and military.

The thing that farrakhan and PFLEGER have in common is gun control.

TRUFAX - Get life. You too Magi. One would think being dumb, def, and blind like yourselves would be very dangerous in American cities like Chicago & San Diego, but you're both still here. Everything is subjective, and based on your perspective, which is obviously that of the elite, historical oppressors and dominant culture of this nation, who will throw a white-washing conservative slant on the most menial news story. Do the world a favor, dink the Clorox from the bottle instead of putting it on your white sheet.

No worries though, Trufax, you are not mis-characterized...you're clearly and inbred, redneck, asshole, racist. Sure wish we could meet up in real life.

Yo, Timmers, didja not get memo? Obama just threw Wright under the bus with Grammy...Grammy for being a typical white woman and Wright for being a bigoted nut case.

What are your bona fides in this area of discussion? You speak with all the credibility of a sophomore who is over his head in his lower division classes.

Your syntax, by the way, sucks. Excuse the use of the vernacular, it's been a rough day in the real world.

Nice big Maggie, very clever critique. I like that, especially your preception of how I sound (although didn't know these comments emitted sound). You however, speak like a privileged coward with dick in his mouth (excuse the vernacular, but that's what a cock sucker is...wipe ya lips pussy). I'm sure your sister/wife is real proud of her good ol' boy.

Obama is on damage control right now, what else can he do, internet though guy? In all likelihood, it's too little too late, to reverse the damage. The media and 'others' such as yourself have been waiting for a weakness to exploit, here it is. You're running. This is America, the greatest country in the world. Unfortunately, there's still more red states than blue, and it seems more rednecks than enlightened and evolved human beings. I'm not sure if this country will ever be progressive enough to embrace a black man a President.

Reverend Wright is a bigot because of the 30 second sound-bytes the media has pumped to the public. Reverend Wright is a bigot because speaks of the Black Experience, the experience of historically oppressed people in this country (the hate, that hate made, like it or not, it's real). What do you know of the black experience Maggie (other than avoiding certain neighborhoods and locking your door at the sight of black youth)? How could you fathom such an experience. Allow me to help you with this one Maggie, you can't, and why would you want to? I'm sure it's GREAT having your sense of entitlement is very comforting.

Society and the media does not want to have open discussions on the division of race in this country. The history of murder, rape, injustice and the mystery of inequity is still very alive today, socially and institutionally (I'm sure you'll disagree; but how could you understand). Doing so could break down some of the barriers between all human beings, the enlightened and the ignorant. Then we may see racially harmony across all dividing lines, even in Rancho Cimmichanga CA...imagine that Maggie.

That's it, that's all, you're too rude, crude, and unprepared for a discussion of all but your subjective victim-based reality.

Calm down Maggie, be easy.

Nice escape...

Cowardly elitist bitch.

Welcome to the real world. Say 'hi' to your wife/sister for me.

Fr.Pfleger may be against firearms in private hands, but that does not prevent his advocating homicide. At a demonstration trying to shut down a legal firearms dealer he called on the crowd to "snuff out" the dealer by name, in addition to other violent remarks. He was rebuked by his Bishop for urging the killing, but the state took no action against him for an obvious effort to incite the crowd to violence. There is no evidence of any apology to the victim of his hate speech.
hello you guys

I understand what Wright is saying, and I know he knows what he is saying, but to continue to try and make a point to the white community at this point, when we may very well see history being made with the 1st black President, takes away all that we have fought for, the white community and others will never understand the struggle like we do, but lets come together at this time, and still take a stand!! dont you guys see what all of this is doing, it is setting us back once more and moreover Rev. Wright should especially understand what he is doing,, Its wrong to continue to appear on TV talking about sound bites that he knows the rest of the world will never get, and this is tareing down our 1 chance to make history in this way!! I hope he gets to read my message

This is Br. Asifah,a.k.a koshawn1@blackplanet.com
I just wanted to commit on the ignorant minded persons that support the arguement that the white media isn't controled.
They have a web site call Jews against Obama, now if that isn't enough, let me ask this real question. Who controls the media? Hey Magi have you for gave the man that beat you up in class or the first person that took your candy in school. Lets see if The Jews forgot the Holocust or 6 million life lost compared to 600 Million+ lives lost in the first Trans Alantic Slave Trade. White America has always been the innocent for the crime that they created. Slavery was sponsored by the Zionist Jews, The Colonist, and Arabs. I dare to call them "Muslim" more like hypocrites. lets check the historical records "Magi".
As a matter of fact Obama should be man enough to say America was wrong and White America benefited from this world crime called Slavery. How? check out your institutions, your banks, your corporations, that drained world economy.
I make no appology for my people being mad, I can't smile in a White mans face the rapes my Human Family.
I know the truth hurts, lets face it what do you benefit defending the wrongs of you fore father.
I know you get to have easy access for all the imigrant Europeans to ride off of the Black Mans struggle. Imigrant Europeans didn't come here in slavery, our people did. Europeans Imigrants didn't have their land stolen from them, their culture, their system of belief. We the Black People have suffered to long.
Reparation HB.40 the legal basis for the case of Reparation for the CRIME of Slavery.
Bear and weep, White America
