He’s baaaack: Obama supporter Rev. Michael Pfleger flogs Hillary’s “white entitlement” on the pulpit
The company he keeps
I’ve reported before on Obama supporter/spiritual advisor/Jeremiah Wright chum/Farrakhan cheerleader Rev. Michael Pfleger and his racial demagoguery (see March 29 and April 30).
Pfleger, who until recently was featured on the Obama campaign website as a spiritual endorser, was back at Obama’s Trinity United Church this weekend mocking Hillary Clinton’s “white entitlement.” It’s one thing to ridicule Hillary’s sense of political and ideological entitlement as part of the Clinton dynasty. But the demagogic emphasis on her race from this hate preacher on the pulpit is quite another thing. You really have to see his performance to believe it.
Here’s the video that’s getting around. I’ve transcribed it below as well if you can’t stomach the antics:
Pastor Otis Moss: He needs no introduction. He’s a friend of Trinity, he’s a brother beloved. He’s a preacher par excellence. He’s a prophetic, powerful pulpiteer. He is our friend. He is our brother. He is none other than Father Michael Pfleger. (Crowd on its feet, standing ovation, loud applause). We welcome him once again…
…Pfleger: [Unintelligible] to address the one who says, “Well, don’t hold me responsible (gesticulating) for what my ancestors did. But you have enjoyed the benefits of what your ancestors did and unless you are ready to give up the benefits (voice rising), throw away your 401 fund, throw away your trust fund, throw away all the money you put into the company you WALKED INTO BECAUSE YO’ DADDY AND YO’ GRANDDADDY AND YO’ GREATGRANDDADDY–(screaming at the top of his lungs)–UNLESS YOU’RE WILLING TO GIVE UP THE BENEFITS, THEN YOU MUST BE REPSONSIBLE FOR WHAT WAS DONE IN YOUR GENERATION ‘CUZ YOU ARE THE BENEFICIARY OF THIS INSURANCE POLICY! (Wild gestures, wild applause).
…We must be honest enough to expose white entitlement and supremacy wherever it raises its head.
I said before I don’t want this to be politica because, you know, I’m very unpolitical (mocking tone, huge laughter).
…When Hillary was crying (gesturing tears, uproarious laughter from audience)–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’ (laughter, hoots). ‘I’m Bill’s wife. I’m WHITE. And this is mine. And I jus’ 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!?!?! (Crowd going nuts, Pfleger screaming). I’M WHITE! I’M ENTITLED! THERE’S A BLACK MAN STEALING MY SHOW. (SOBS!) SHE WASN’T THE ONLY ONE CRYING! THERE WAS A WHOLE LOTTA WHITE PEOPLE CRYING!
I’m sorry. I don’t wanna get you in any mo’ trouble. The livestreaming just went out again…
Here’s the Pfleger endorsement of Obama that has been scrubbed from the campaign site:
I really can’t say it any better than this liberal blog: “[T]here is clearly something wrong at Trinity Church in Chicago.”
More from Allahpundit: “Funny how these longtime acquaintances of his keep “surprising” him with incendiary racial rhetoric.”

Geez, and I naively thought that sermons were to be delivered by humble preachers, touching on religion and life. I never knew that preaching was akin to being a stand up comedian…or in this case an imbecilic egotistical clown, wanting to throw gasoline on the racial fires of losers seeking to blame anybody but themselves for the poor state of their community.
Speaking of “entitlement” I dont know too many causcasions having an entitlement mentality. Seems to go around quite strongly in the big city urban community though.
Pfleger is nothing more than a human boil who found himself an audience as their token whitey priest with an abundance of ego, and a desire to build up street cred while exhausting his never ending supply of white guilt.
Really, I have to say that I wouldnt p**s on this fool if he were on fire. The Trinity Church, and the black community can have him.
I am a devote Catholic and I am ashamed that this fool is pretending to be a Catholic priest. Where is the church on this? This man is supporting a Candidate who is pro infanticide!!! This is the same Catholic Church that says candidates can’t have communion if they support abortion.
If this “church”, and I use that term loosely, was represented in a movie exactly as we see on these videos, people would think it was way too over the top and hammy. Not only is what spews from their pieholes racist, hateful, and condescending, they look like complete fools while doing it. They really should be wearing joker hats with little bells on the tips.
A few years ago the news site KOMOTV.com featured a lady I called “Little Miss Race Traitor” (I forget her real name). She was a nasty, unpleasant white woman who hated white people — with the possible exception of liberal democrats. How she loved her hatred! The pride and moral superiority it gave her. And how the folks at KOMO indulged her. It must have been the supreme moment of her worthless life. Unfortunately, after her one spectacular appearance, she disappeared. Over the months I inquired several times about LMRT, asking how she was doing and when she would be invited back. But for some reason the folks at KOMO never replied and she has not been seen on the local media since. Perhaps she went to Chicago and found a place in Rev. Pfleger’s congregation . . .
I hope so, because not everyone can be a master race-baiter and/or make a living out of it. Like your friends. Right, Obama?
You can watch on TV One or on the Web every Sunday at 7:30 a.m. EST. Just eat well ahead of show time.
Makes Steve Martin in ‘Leap of Faith’ look positively normal.
On welfare in a church having tax-free status.
Disgusting, racially depraved and exposed.
It is about the company you keep, Obama. Your character, beliefs and agenda is becoming more obvious and worrisome each news cycle. The Democratic Party needs to reasess their priorities and worry less about healing their party and worry much more about healing race relations in the Country as a whole. Obama needs to back out of the presidential race. He has opened a societal wound that threatens to infect on a scale not seen in 50 years. I am sickened by the black racism demonstrated and it is changing the way I percieve things. Obama is now a failed candidate for the Dem Party. No one I know, wouldn’t vote for Obama because he is black, until now. Comments I hear are that they won’t vote for him because he is a black racist. Issues be damned.

The fact that that’s what you came up with says far more about you than it does about her. Really.

Oh, please. If you’re unable to find decent work, perhaps your resume is subpar. Want others to stop blaming “The Man” for their problems? Stop blaming employers for your shortcomings. This is a country where you can work hard and make your dreams come true. Pull yourself up by your bootstraps and take some accountability! I’m so tired of people who can’t make it on their own blaming the rest of us…
Oh, the irony!
I’m old enough to know that you ARE judged by the company you keep. These talking heads keep saying “guilt by assocation” you can’t have ‘guilt by association” Well in the real world, where I live, you are judged by your assocations. Lie with the dogs – you get fleas. I think we have an infestation here.
People who are good friends with Obama, or who have endorsed him:
Rev. Jeremiah Wright–believes the government invented AIDS to kill African-Americans
Rev. Michael Pfleger–crazier than Jeremiah Wright, this nutso pretends he is Louis Farrakhan on steroids.
Bill Ayers
Bernadine Dorhn
Louis Farrakhan
Tony Rezko
Castro…
Hamas…
Ahmadinejad…
All that’s lacking is Satan’s endorsement. I seriously wouldn’t doubt it…
Let’s not forget the National UCC conference in Hartford where they essentially endorsed Obama.
Oh — has he switched parties recently?
No, he’s still a Democrat.
MMany “people of color” do. That’s who.
What a classy crowd the Democrats are, no?
So now Obama is “disappointed” and the wacko priest apologized. What a bunch of disingenuous @#$%.
Hey “Father”, my family was brought here as bond slaves in 1697. So exactly what “insurance benefits” did I receive?
Maybe that is what is will take. More and more black churches are falling into the Black Grievance scam with support of White Guilt Marxist such as this Michael Pfleger. These people are determined to start something and it is past time trying to avoid it. Let them riot. Hell, I hope it starts in Denver. Except it should be past time for sending in the clowns calling for calm. Let the cry babies burn their inner cities, their stores and homes.
So we don’t send in the “honkey” or “uncle tom” firefighters, let them burn their cities. We don’t send in the police, we just cordon them off from everyone else. If there is a part of the black community opposed to these riots they can defend their own neighborhoods. They want nothing to do with whitey, fine.
And if he wins everybody else might have to. Once there was such hope it would get better. Too bad.
Wow, I feel cheated.
Every time I go to church, all I hear is stuff about love, forgiveness, how I need to repent of my sins, how I shouldn’t think I’m better than anyone else because I’m a sinner too, blah blah blah.
I’m sick of the (racist white) “milk” teaching – I want to start hearing some of the “solid food” teaching. You know, like “Hillary ain’t never been called a n*gga”, and “Hillary is entitled to be president because she’s white”.
brooklyn red…Thank you.
I have never seen such hatred and racial discrimination until I’ve been following the rhetoric from Barack Hussein Obama church, Michael Pfleger–the Catholic Priest, Wright, and many others that BHO has associated with his entire life.
What is it with the Black Churches that they can preach this type of hatred and discrimination and gets away with it and the moment a White Church or a spokesperson says anything not political correct gets lynched. Things have to change! Period. I am sickened by this process and double standard.
Barack Hussein Obama is an empty suit and he must have some very powerful handlers! How else could he have made it this far? He did not make it on his resume, nor his knowledge of history or economics, nor his general knowledge in general. He is a junior senator without experience. Where did he come from, who are his handlers?
His wife obviously has serious issues with this country. He, she and their children went to the same church for 20 years, twenty years with a preacher that apparently preached hatred toward the Country, black separatism, and Barack Hussein Obama says he did not hear his hateful sermons? Give me a break! The man is a lier or a moron or both.
but all the women can wear a nice hat..
Tpierce2, this man is black, a liberal and a democrat. To his voters, that is all the requirements for President, that is needed. Other than “hope and change”, they have no idea what he supports, and they don’t care. This isn’t the first time. We’ve voted in bad Presidents before, based on popularity, not the issues. Wilson comes to mind; an avowed racist, whose first act was to throw all the blacks out of the federal government, even postmasters in black neighborhoods. Hopefully, he’ll finally step over the line with some new nonsense, and that will end the campaign.
Obama and his ilk are scum, i don’t care what color they are.
Nyk white people have been dismissed from their jobs because of affirmative action. When I bid on a government contract, 10% of the employees I put on the job have to be black! Nyk, you’re and idiot moron, again I beg you to arise from your chysalis of ignorant stupidity.
I’d prefer the company of some oil company executives, hedge fund managers, and defense contractors any day to the stinkers Obama calls friends.
At least they don’t spew hatred and racism. They just create jobs and opportunities for middle class Americans.
Forced celibacy has really turned you into an unpleaseant character.
So you support whining about “The Man.” That makes you the idiot (but, let’s be honest — we already knew that about you). If you don’t possess the skills to find a good job ANYWHERE, maybe you need to reassess your (lack of) skills. Stop pointing fingers. To quote David Sedaris, if you’re looking for sympathy, you’ll find it between sh*t and syphilis in the dictionary.
After reading the posts from the other blog, I think I understand now that the Democrat party is made up of 2 types of people…The Elitist and The Victim. This is a case of the struggle between the two. The Elitist believes that their own sheer genius has made them successful and that the majority of people do not possess the ability to be like them. The victim needs to be taken care of, thinks the elitist, they are too stupid to make it on their own. The victim waits for government to take care of them because they can never be successful, so no use in trying, basically the ultimate excuse to be lazy.
Pfleger and Wright speak to the victims. Clinton is the elite who champions the victim, but now we have a candidate who is victim and elite in Obama. I think I get it now. Thanks MM.
I’m guessing that’s Afro-Sheen in Father Pfleger’s hair.
I heard this maniac yesterday and just like with Wright, it sounded like a voice from hell. How is he still a priest?? I NEVER heard cursing from the pulpit. I could understand it better coming from a self appointed “Reverend”, but a Priest?
There IS guilt by association, which Alan Colmes keeps joking about, as if it isn’t the case. Obviously the Obamas feel like these maniacs and the fact that the whites that back him don’t get it amazes me.
Sign the petition to rid the church of Pfleger. How can the Bishop of Chicago allow him to continue?
We’ve all seen how Pope Benedict carried himself, with humility and love. This man carries hate, thinks he’s black and is crazed.
This guy looks just like the evil pastor in the HBO miniseries Carnivale I think that the vatican needs to send in the excorcist team
DaveC #123,
lowering the bar yet further, seemed impossible, but these two hacks (Wright and Pfleger) have managed to do it.
it may have been.
“nyk”… I thought those were initials, at first, but now I know it’s the sound that Curly Howard makes: “nyk, nyk, nyk”
Way to go Misscheryl. Since the dawn of my political awaking, when mormons in southern Idaho suggested that in the future (when I become a wage earner or property owner) I would have to give them ten percent of my earnings, property, etc., I have been mystified as to why church organizations enjoy tax exempt status. Theoretically it should be okay…the reality is that the abuse of the system is so rampant that blanket tax exempt status for religious organisations should be completely abandoned. Churches that protects pedophiles? Churches that give sanctuary to law-breakers? Churches that prey on old folks who don’t know how to protect their possessions? I don’t think so. At the very least, tax exemption should be limited to activities and costs that are related (with evidence) to charitable activities rendered to legal Americans (emphasis on the “legal”).
P.S. Did I mention that atheists, who deserve a voice, might legitimately object to paying taxes that wouldn’t be there if churches paid a fair share of the USA tax?
Me and other seminarians from my diocese heard this on the news and were disappointed that a Catholic priest would say such stupid things.
