Obama’s flaky clergy friends doing Hillary’s work for her.

Well, you’ve all heard about the latest “pastor eruption” from Trinity United Church o’ Christ, Barack Obama’s church home for the last 20 years.

This outburst was from the famous or notorious  Father Michael Pfleger, pastor of St. Sabina’s, a Catholic church on Chicago’s South Side. In a guest sermon he gave Sunday at Trinity, the radical priest delivered a racist rant against Hillary Clinton, saying she expected the Democratic nomination because of “white privilege,” a concept that white, liberal guilt-mongers have been pedaling for a couple of decades now.

Sound bytes of this “sermon,” along the congregation’s enthusiastic agreement, were instantly “Hannitized” and spread like wild fire through the talkosphere and blogosphere. Then the fire spread to the fossil media.

Hillary doesn’t have to sabotage Barack’s campaign. His church does it for her!

I think it’s time for Mayor Daley to intervene: Send a legion of city code inspectors to Trinity.

    Yep, Chuckles, we’ve heard it.
    And some of us are even wondering…well, just how many other weirdos are in the Obama Orbit?
    And how many of them will land administration jobs?
    Because, I am sure you know that one of the most important jobs of a president is to hire good people, right?

    Right?
