Obama, Pfleger, and Earmarks
By Erick

Barack Obama has thrown Rev. Michael Pfleger under the bus. Pfleger took Hillary to task, claiming she felt she should win over a black man.

CBS News notes that Pfleger is "another pastor friend."

But he's much more than that. Pfleger and Obama have had a long relationship. Pfleger backed Obama against Bobby Rush when Obama ran in 2000 for Congress.

Already by that time, Pfleger was on record supporting radicals like Louis Farrakhan.

Pfleger is a campaign contributor to Obama, in addition to being yet another "spiritual mentor," and Obama got a $225,000.00 earmark for Pfleger's church when Obama was in the state legislature in Illinois.

Obama's strategist, lobbyist David Axelrod, told the New York Times

that Father Pfleger was “remaking the face” of Chicago’s South Side and that all of Mr. Obama’s earmarks went to worthy programs like his.

Great, so not only is Obama associating with far left hate filled preachers, he's getting them tax dollars too.


These associations will make Barry unelectable. I know it's a surprise to the posters here, but the speech of Wright and Pfleger are way off the scale for most Americans- especially whites. Barry has no experience to tout so , as he's said, his judgement us his main plus
Aligning with racists who hate America- especially white America is not a good campaign strategy
This will not go away
