Like the other Africanist, George Stallings of DC (although I will say that Stallings actually was black, unlike Minstrel Pfleger), he will go off and sink into obscurity.

One of the reasons these guys want to stay in the Church is not because they believe in it or its doctrine or, to come right down to it, in Our Lord, but because - as a leftist feminist once said of her university - that’s where the Xerox machines are. In other words, the Church gives them a forum they could never get on their own.

Let him go. If he wants to come back as a Catholic, leave the door open...but the current situation is good neither for the Church or for him.

"Worked for Martin Luther, but Michael Pfleger is no Martin Luther. "

Yes. The difference is that in the case of Martin Luther, it wasn't all about "Martin Luther"!

Pfleger looks like a homosexual.

Is there a particular reason why you would know what homosexuals look like?

Which one of Obama’s fire breathing preaching buddies will be the next one to insert his foot in his mouth?

Nothing to worry about. His “exile” will only last into early November.

Why, you worried?

Send me your picture.

He's been thumbing his nose at authority -- secular and sacred -- for years in pursuit of what he believes God has called him to do: fight for the poor and the oppressed; battle injustice in whatever form it appears

So he's been extremely active in fighting abortion, then?

Staunchly opposed to the dissemination of contraceptives among Chicago teens?

Taken a bold stand against the "stop snitching" movement?

No, Mikey Pfleger has been fighting for TV cameras and radio interviews and newspaper profiles for almost 30 years now. That's all he ever wanted - to be known as the most righteously self-hating white boy in Chicagoland.

“Why, you worried?”
(That was a joke...btw)

He looks like a homo, because he is overly well groomed, flamboyant, a radical leftist, overly concerned with how society has hurt people (including himself) and he has the look in his eye of a predatory homosexual. And hist statements since his takedown sound very effiminant.

Well, I don’t know about looks, but he sure sounds like one to me, in the video I saw.

I even posted these words when I first saw the video:

A faggot version of Jeremiah Wright.

Blame your problems on Whitey, Father Phlegm. It worked every other time.

Obama’s leaving a lot of dead bodies in his wake, so to speak.

It’s almost Clintonesque.

One of the things that I find extremely ironic about the Pfleger episode is that after the decades of ranting from Jeremiah Wright in this institution in Chicago called a church, that it is a white man who gets called on the carpet. And by a church which has too often turned the other way when its clergy has swerved from the path of God’s word. I find the Archbishop’s action entirely appropriate. It’s too bad that Trinity Church did not exercise the same kind of oversite over Wright years ago. Wright might not have discouraged countless people about what was good about their country and how they could use their freedom to help themselves. Not to mention how they could appeal directly to their heavenly Father.

He adopted and reared 3 young boys, too. I thought it was pretty eyebrow-raising when he said that being taken to task over his comments was more devastating than when his adopted son was killed.

you are so right. Stallings has not been heard from again since he started his own church. a fitting end for pfleger as well.

Maybe he thinks young boys are like buses. If you miss one, they’ll always be another.
