More Pastor Problems for Obama

Just when we thought that Obama would sail through to the general election, another of his former pastors, the Rev. Michael Pfleger comes out and mocks Clinton. Not helpful for Obama whose supporters may defect to McCain if more of these problems arise.

It seems as if every time Obama is about to wrap up the long and bitter fight for the democratic presidential nomination, a race or gender issue comes up and this will hurt him in the general election against McCain.

This time, the Rev. Michael Pfleger, who has known Obama for about 20 years, took the stage and ridiculed Clinton using racially charged words. Obama “disowned” another of his former pastors, the Rev.

Jeremiah Wright for saying things such as “God damn America”. What will he do with Pfleger who mimicked Clinton crying and said that Clinton implied that “There's a black man stealing my show”? Of course, this helps the Republican nominee, John McCain who denounced Pfleger's comments as “disgraceful”. The big issue now is: what will Obama do?

Why is Obama being held responsible for comments that other people make (his pastors for example)?
Besides, I agree with ALL the comments made by the 2 pastors. The only people that seem to have a problem with their comments are Americans that are clueless about their own history.
