Father Pfleger: Tact is for Suckas

I especially want to hear from you ministers and community leaders on this one.



By now you've seen it. If not, here it is. Most will agree with Father Michael Pfleger, and no one will disagree that he is a prophetic figure in our country (he's an angel in Chicago, trust, he'll NEVER lose St. Sabina). But MORE THAN THAT, how do these comments help or harm Obama's campaign? I'll save my thoughts until a couple of you respond, but I know that after 8 years of Bush, nobody (black or white) even wants the IMPRESSION that our next president will be surrounded and advised by...um...charismatic types. I love them dearly and view them as my mentors in good ministry and community leadership, but I know America.

Are they scaring the majority away? What should Obama do? I think this is ESPECIALLY interesting considering that most of the folks who tune in to PureMusic everyday are ministers and folks who think that Wright and Pfleger are the bee's knees. I know I do.

I really want Obama to beat McCain.
