Fr. Pfleger – UPDATED

:::UPDATE:::Cardinal George has put the smackdown to Fr. Pfleger:::END UPDATE:::

A few readers wondered why I had not commented on, the latest piece of deplorable and unChristian high-drama to come out of Barack Obama’s church – boy, poor Obama, he’s “deeply disappointed” so often, lately, it’s a wonder he’s not depressed – the offensive preaching of one Fr. Michael Pfleger.

Truth is I had posted the video over at Inside Catholic and then moved on, because I thought the thing spoke for itself, and badly. I’ve never been slow to admit that the church survives by the grace of the Holy Spirit, because the running of it is all-too-flawed and imperfectly human.

Deacon Greg has video of another priest, Msgr. James Lisante, getting a bit too political, too.

Lisante is a good priest – but he’s been hanging out with the press and pols a lot, lately. Maybe he needs a retreat?
