Look who’s “counseling” Obama and Wright
You’ll recall the name Michael Pfleger. He’s, you know, the white Jeremiah Wright.
Now, it appears the radical, hate-preaching Pfleger is playing therapist and go-between for newly-divorced couple Barack Obama and Jeremiah Wright.
You almost can’t parody this mess.
But Iowahawk can and does so again brilliantly with “Advice for the Lovelorn.”
Can this campaign be saved?

Like asking William Jefferson for ice?
Oh, the MSM and the moonbats in general will keep hope/change/lyingBS alive and well way past the obvious expiration date. Bank on it.
From Gatewaypundit:
Hilarious! What is this, a campaign or a soap opera? Get over it fellas! You’ll love again ~ someday.
Wright: Obama just threw me under the bus! (waves to Obama’s grandma.)
Obama: And don’t let the bus hit you on the way out!
See how racist I am? I thought it was going to be Farrakhan.
Okay. So, Obie
turns against, err, I mean, denounces his black mentor, radical pastor and friend of twenty yrs and jumps into the loving arms a yet another radical preacher, only this one is white.So much fodder…so little time.
UMMMM, isn’t minister
Pfleger666 a white guy? Just asking?God-all-mighty….what a mess….And in spite of this, Hillary is worse, conniving, duplicitous, scheming, shameless, and, well …..You know all of it from this websight….MacMidget couldn’t have drawn to an inside straight any better than these two….And still I anticipate a surging, stinging pain in my a**….er….elbow as I pull the lever for the “R”
Soap,
I guess that whitey (Pfleger) has the seal of approval that only white folks who haven’t been thrown under the bus by Obama earn… Is there room for one more?
I admired the late playwright August Wilson. The Obama/Wright
kerfuffleimbroglio would have made great drama.“Mayor Richard M. Daley called the current flap a dangerous distraction.”I’ve read this comment, made by pundits and politicians, over and over. Do the people who say it believe that the electorate can keep only one thought in their heads at a time? This is a patronizing and insulting presumption even for a liberal.
Republicans should be ashamed of themselves. They could have run my dog against these fools and won. He would have done a better job than McCain, too.
Oh well.

You mean Chicago’s Mayor Richard Daley?
That guy could write books about corruption and how to get away with it. He should shut his monkey-trap.

Sure it can, by the MSM and other apologists. Even O’Reilly keeps giving Obama the benefit of the doubt about what Obama did and didn’t know and why Obama didn’t give yesterday’s speech sooner when the Wright hate speech has been around for a year. “None of us believe that Obama believes what Wright says.” Right….he only stayed in the church for 20 years oblivious to the hate being preached and the cheers from the congregation when it was said. Doesn’t say much for Obama’s paying attention to what is going on around him, does it? Sure will make a good president with that kind of observational skill.
All in all, it astounds me. Like one guy said…Obama is the teflon candidate. Nothing seems to be sticking. All Obama’s lies and terrorist buddies doesn’t seem to make any difference to so many voters.
What is wrong with these people?
Katieanne,
They are on the cusp of having voting for the first black (Bill Clinton sit down!) President evah! They’ll be a part of history. It’s like so thrilling and amazing and totally radical.
Seriously, I have no idea why people are willing to overlook his flaws. I do know that it is really telling of them and their standards.
Is this like Reverend Jesse Jackson coming to the White House to pray with the Clintons after Bill admitted on national TV he did after all have sex with “that woman”?
I nominate Reverend Michael Pfleger’s therapy theme song to be:
Ebony and Ebony-n-Ivory
Ebony and ebony-n-ivory, live together in perfect harmony
Side by side on black liberation theology, oh lord, why can’t we?
We all know that racists are the same where ever we go
There is good and bad in everyone,
We learn to fake, we learn to take from
Each other what we need to survive together alive.
This has to be some of the best news I’ve heard all day.
Barack HUSSEIN Obama forgot the old adage; If one finds oneself in a hole, the first thing to do is STOP DIGGING!
Looks to me as if he just got a bigger shovel.
More & more I’m feeling this is a staged event put up by both Obama & Wright. Wright needed to act the fool so Obama could disown him on prime time. Now the MSN is saying that all this is behind him and spinning it all into a great thing.
Clipped from a CBSNews article:
“In a New York Times profile of the Obama-Wright relationship in April 2007, Wright himself predicted such a split based on the controversial remarks that were already under some scrutiny. “If Barack gets past the primary, he might have to publicly distance himself from me,” Wright told the paper over a year ago. “I said it to Barack personally, and he said yeah, that might have to happen.”
It was all staged and the country is going to fall for it.
One reporter is predicting a race riot if the superdelegates pick Hillary. Barack also hinted at this in one of his speeches last year.
The supers, according to the above article, have no choice. they must vote for Obama, not just because they don’t want to be called racists, but also for the safety of the nation.
The journalist is assuming that all blacks are violent, which is not true. He is writing this possibly to sway supers . Maybe he wants to put the idea in their head that the black community is pointing a gun at their head and forcing them to vote for Barack.
This is wrong on so many levels.
30, I am sure Glowbama has no prob with a “white” minister. The wrong Rev. Wright’s skin must be crawling. I mean, doesn’t Rev. 666 owe the wrong Rev. Wright reparations (and an apology) because his skin is white?

Can you cite the speech? I’ve never heard this, nor seen it referenced. Can you post Obama’s exact wording, please, where he hints at a potential riot if he doesn’t get the nomination?
Red Repub #20, Race Riot? Imagine if the Clintons steal it from Obama over something his preacher said.
August 25th is their convention.
August 15th 1908 Springfield, Illinios where Obama announced his run. Home to Abe Lincoln. Grant. Dick Turbin. Adli. Pail Simmon…..etc
Paul
I’ll say it again…I did not have spiritual relations with “that pastor”…
ROFLMAO
I almost fell out of my chair laughing so hard at IowaHawk’s parodies on Obama!
#19 I agree that this looks like it was staged very carefully although my husband believes Hillary set up the Press Club speech while Wright was on a roll.
BHO is still an empty suit and a Democrat politician from Chicago (the worst kind). We grew up in a suburb when R.Daley’s father was notorious for counting dead people’s votes and his machine was instrumental in the JFK election.
This is funny.
Sean Hannity likes to say; “Don’t under-estimate the Republicans ability to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.”
Especially with Juan McShames constant defence of the Democrats whenever someone who is supposed to be on his side attacks one of their many weaknesses.
Here in Chicago land we call him Father Flakey.
30 pcs, wouldn’t you think they would prefer to have someone people could respect? I would love to have a woman president, but would never vote for one that wasn’t worthy of the position. I keep waiting for an American Margaret Thatcher and none are on the horizon. Until there is, I won’t settle for just anyone.
You’re right….apparently, some don’t have any standards. As long as the skin is the right tone, that’s all that matters. Here, all along I thought skin color isn’t what makes the person, what is in their minds and their abilities are what’s important. Silly me. Not being a racist apparently keeps me out of the loop of what truly is important.
Iowahawk makes me proud to live in his home state. (I have little hometown pride in this liberal college city.) He is consistently hilarious and if you like the one on Obama that Michelle linked, check out Dreams of My Foosball and It’s Time For Some Straight Talk About My Gimp. Also, his “classic TV scripts” - Hillary’s Hellcats and Makaniak. And so much more.
Sorry for going off-topic, I’m just a huge Iowahawk fan.
katieanne,
I’m with you and I couldn’t agree more. Content of their character…nobody wants to talk about character because none of the candidates have it. Instead we are left to pick through to lost and found bin, it’s never pretty in there.
I don’t know why today’s my day to compare real life situations to movie scenes, but seeing Obama revert to type - subbing in one leftist “preacher man” for another - is reminiscent of the exchange between Spock and Kirk during the final space battle in Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan:
- And everybody knows what happens after that.
Obama’s “pattern” is his fondness/weakness for left-wing radicals. He just can’t help himself, probably because they make him feel so comfortable (when even Ted Kennedy can’t get to the left of you in the Senate, that’s saying something).
What remains to be seen is whether McCain can understand the gift he’s been given in this regard, and take advantage of it. The jury’s still out on that question.
I’m going to go out on a limb - well, not really much of a limb - here and say McCain has no earthly idea what kind of opportunities he has here, based on what I’ve seen from his so far.
I wouldn’t have a problem voting for a woman presidential candidate, if I could find one that was qualified and capable.
I’m with you. It’s never pretty having to rummage through the discarded items to choose something for ourselves.
This whole thing has more drama than an MTV reality show.
Barry F,
I cry foul. That’s not what I said…
Sure, it’s all irrelevant to his True Believers.
I must not be understanding your post, 30. I took it to mean we have very little (speaking in regard to candidates) from which to pick in this election cycle this year. Sorry, if I misinterpreted it.

The reason they are so willing to overlook his flaws is that same reason that LAW STUDENTS(!) at Temple U. cheered when they watched the OJ verdict come in on TV…
TruthLies,Justice, Injustice, and theAmericanAfrican-American Way …Hmmm, frying pan into the fire time?
It must make life so much easier, and save so much time, to be so reductive about people.
Barry F., You understood perfectly it is I who hasteth the problem…
I just finished up finals… please excuse me the brain is still fried.
30 for Prez! She’ll outdo Margaret Thatcher ion a heartbeat!
in - dyslexic in the fingers again
My fingers have a hard time keeping up with my thoughts, when I post, cpodug. I used to try to go back and correct mine but they get too numerous sometimes. I could tell what you meant.
Obama and Riots:
Here is the original article
It also has a great quote about how important Rev. Wright is to Obama.
cpodug,
Thanks for the vote of confidence but politics is a cuthroat/stab-you-in-the-back type of business and I am afraid of knives.
I tried my hand at running for office once. That was enough for me.
The other side spread so many lies about me I started to question myself. And, mine was just a race in local government.
30 is spot on…
It can be an ugly adventure, if/when someone ever decides to try their hand at it.
Father Flogger to the rescue? This is too funny. The Obama campaign is turning into a blend of Jerry Springer and a Looney Tunes feature film. The only thing missing is Baghdad Bob as Obama’s press secretary - but it ain’t over yet!

nyk, you’re absolutely right… i didn’t mean to imply all A-A’s.. my bad.. i meant just the cracker-hating, grievance-addicted, Wright-minded radical racist crowd… which unfortunately does not seem to be an inconsiderable number, judging by Wright’s support at NAACP, etc…

Never you worry, 30. I’ll be the head of your Secret Service detail.
yeah, the nation of islam is running a little low on those now-a-days.
REV-ENGE IS SWEET FOR ‘BETRAYED’ PASTOR
This makes sense to me.
I remember, as a kid of about 10 or 12, boys used to cough up that stuff, from deeeep down and then expectorate it, like it was cool. I think they called those Pfleger’s.
Seriously, though. This stuff with the Obama-Wright-Pfleger love triangle is too good to be made up. But Baghdad Bob as BHO’s press secretary, that’s hilarious!
I’m an old fart compared to MM (but a long-time D.C.er, for what it’s worth), so I can only compare this incredible situation to the period of time in 1992 when questions about WJClinton’s sexual antics were bandied about publicly.
I can only hope that in the interim, due to a) MSM tanking and b) New Media etc, we see an American public not as complacent or indifferent.
