HILLARY CLINTON

Meet Barack Obama’s Crazy White (But Maybe Black) Guest Preacher One Time!

Ruh roh, it appears they don’t only have crazy black preachers at Barack Obama’s church! Here is a crazy white preacher (first in history!), Michael Pfleger, guest-preaching at Trinity recently. He’s NUTS! Look at what he says about Hillary, ha ha: “When Hillary was crying, and people said that was put on, I really don’t believe it was put on… I really believe that she just always thought, ‘This is mine! I’m Bill’s wife, I’m white, and this is mine! I just gotta get up and step into the plate.’ And then out of nowhere came, ‘Hey, I’m Barack Obama,’ and she said, ‘Oh, damn! Where did you come from? I’m white! I’m entitled! There’s a black man stealing my show!’” Pfleger is such a fake whitey that he preaches at his OWN black church in Chicago, because there are several! The point: why is Barack Obama saying these things? [ABC News, YouTube]

    I’m going to use the phrase “I’m white, and this is mine” with much more frequency than usual from here on out. Now that I know it’s Clinton-sanctioned and all.

    Meh. Call me when he starts going off about the various differences in the manner in which African-Americans and caucasians drive their automobiles.

    @AnnieGetYourFun: That’s going on my family crest.

  4. SocialList says at 4:30 pm, May 29th, 2008

    This is the end of Hillary,because when you’ve lost the Caucasian Black preachers,you’ve lost.

    That is the blackest man I have ever seen in my life.

  6. bitchincamaro says at 4:35 pm, May 29th, 2008

    Yeah, he’s got his own house o’ god in Chicago. I think it’s in Wigger Park.

  11. floraway says at 4:54 pm, May 29th, 2008

    No one is going to care about this. He’s a white priest. They’ve done worse…

  12. AngryBlakGuy says at 4:56 pm, May 29th, 2008

    …but he is a WHITE preacher so this doesn’t count!

  13. AngryBlakGuy says at 4:58 pm, May 29th, 2008

    …after the whole Rev. Wright debacle why in the hell do they still video tape sermons in that church?! It should be like a McCain/Bush fund raiser and camera and reporter free!

    Father Michael Pfleger?? He’s probably not too popular at his catholic church. How the hell can you sleep during his homilies?

  20. bitchincamaro says at 5:47 pm, May 29th, 2008

    Man, I clicked on those random posts and got taken to hellenback. Wtf?

    Very apt, fem.

    I thought I was a caricature of white liberal guilt, but this “prophetic powerful pulpiteer” is a loon. Any guesses as to what’s posessing him?

    Squeezing back into the intertubes was harder than getting into those Chole jeans from five years ago. I’ve got to lose a few pounds.

  30. I don’ completely agree with everyhing he’s saying, but I understand his point. I am also from Chicago and he’s done a lot for the city and is loved by a lot of people.

    Jesus H. Christ! Trinity, you done did it, again!

    It’s official, Hillary Clinton operatives have infiltrated Trinity.

  36. omg, I’m reborn. Once I was SCROTUS, now i’m…

  37. Factionista says at 11:01 pm, May 29th, 2008

    Father Pfleger is great. A total nut, yes. But great. He’s done a ton of stuff for poor people in Chicago. I’m shocked he hasn’t been ex-communicated yet. He’s not your everyday priest.

  38. Cicada says at 11:25 pm, May 29th, 2008

    It’s just not as fun with a white guy. I don’t get that same delicious bolt of fear and hatred in my heart. Slap a glittery dashiki on him, and maybe we’ll talk.

  39. hazmaq says at 11:27 pm, May 29th, 2008

    Another youtube video from Trinity Church?
    What the f**k? (I’m afraid of the new server)
    Does it occur to anyone else that there must have been some little republican operative camped out in that church with a camcorder for the last 11 years?

  42. capitol-hillbilly says at 12:14 am, May 30th, 2008

    the Rev. Y.T. Pfleger amuses me!

    I’m thinking of a duet they could both sing..

  44. AudicityofHope says at 12:31 am, May 30th, 2008

    I just re-registered. Has the new site been up all day? Because I checked it a few hours ago and it still looked all funked up.

    Michael Pfleger is the bomb! Why aren’t there any preachers like him around here? Oh yeah, I live in the racist south.

  45. AxmxZ says at 1:56 am, May 30th, 2008

    Barack should just come out as a Satanist. At this point, it’ll probably give him a ratings boost.

    Best. Sermon. Ever.

  47. greatwhitebear says at 8:53 am, May 30th, 2008

    Hon, dontcha know, the road to Hell is lined with unauthorized videos made in church. Apparently the makers were not concerned with their own eternal damnation.

    Maybe Trinity will sport a transgender Native American former commercial sex worker as a guest preacher soon. Then, then nutjobs will really light up!

  48. Sirened says at 2:43 pm, May 30th, 2008

    ‘Show Time at the Apollo’ with a white comedian…Hell’s yeah!

  49. TheMac says at 11:15 pm, May 30th, 2008

    “This is mine! This is where my babies come from!”

    No, seriously, that white dude needs to relax. White entitlement and supremacy- very real. Hillary Clinton’s sense of entitlement- I don’t see it.

    Take the blinders off, Mac.
