HELLO AGAIN. I HAVE A DREAM.

I don't know this guy's name Reverend Michael Louis Pfleger is a Catholic priest that is friends with Rev Jeremiah Wright and invited him to his church where Maya Angelou was attending.

MLK jr. would be where reverend wright is currently if he were alive. someone really should collect quotes from republicans and conservatives about king during his life while he was still alive. i'm sure they'd be revealing.

but yes, if only faithful men and women like him were the ones that were appearing on television...

That is SUCH a good idea. I wonder if Michael Eric Dyson has done something like that. It isn't until embarrassingly recently that I've started to read about what kind of person MLK Jr was and it is sickening how twisted and white washed his words have become. US History always wants to play into this Malcolm Vs Martin mentality like they weren't even in the same fight.

if only faithful men and women like him were the ones that were appearing on television

I like to keep the idealism. The louder we get..

The priest at the parish I attend is really liberal/open minded and I figured probably as cool as a Catholic priest can get.

WAY TO BLOW THAT OUT OF THE WATER. I feel like the first time you met your friend's ~cool mom~

In 2000, Pfleger received international attention for encouraging his parishioners to buy time from prostitutes as a means of inviting the women to counseling and job training.

WHY WOULD ANYONE ARGUE AGAINST THAT ARGHHH

To parrot ke^7, this guy is fucking awesome and i'm very surprised that Fox gave him air time (you'd think they won't listen to the truth unless there's a white guy saying it or something, lol).

The reporter interviewing him was a little prick, damn.

I doubt it was even aired for the full ten minutes. Probably a snippet where he says something easily twistable and an intern leaked the rest to the internet.

While I don't have faith in mainstream cable news, I do have faith in entry level internet savvy twenty somethings.

Not on the cable network, but the first time I saw it, it was on the Fox website in full.

Found it:

That's the worst O'Reilly/Fox could do to him. Lol.
And suddenly O'Reilly's a great defender of teh gheys? What?

Haha I like how he's preaching against limiting people to sound bytes then..

That clip was so typical O'Reilly you can't even get mad. Even though it said "Nation of Islam Leader" under Farrakhan's speech I love that he was introduced as a Muslim Extremist. Like Al Qaeda and NOI would totally break bread.
