Phleger Phlucks his Phlock

So much for being a voice for his community. He's nothing but a mouthpiece for Shortshanks (again):
  • Surrounded by laid-off CTA bus drivers, activist priest Michael Pfleger called on CTA unions today to give back this year's salary increase and accept unpaid furlough days to help end service cuts.

    "In a crisis everybody needs to give in ... and care for the whole," Pfleger said at St. Sabina Church.
    [...] Pfleger said he wasn't taking sides in the dispute, even though he called on the union to give back this year's 3.5 percent salary increase and take unpaid furlough days.
Funny, but we didn't see Phleger calling for teachers to give back their 4% a year. Nor aldercreatures to give back their 6% a year and the increase in their $1.3 million "friends and family" slush funds.

We guess for some things, it just pays to keep your mouth shut.

Phlegmhole should stick to preaching, not politics. Part of what is wrong w/the Catholic church. Every time I see him on tv I want to throw something through the screen.

I think he was alluding to police and fire doing the same thing, in an indirect way.

Once again it's time to put Pfleger Bucks (as seen previously on SCC) in the church collection basket this Sunday!

Maybe send a few to the Archdiocese, too.

Start taxing his church. He's a politician, not a priest. There's no religion going on over there, just dumbocRAT political moves.

In fact, they should start taxing all of those storefront churches. We could use the money. Every time a politician goes to one of these churches, tax time.

Will he give back his pay increase? He's a diocesan priest not a franciscan. No vow of poverty for him.

If there's a Hell, Pfleger will burn there.

You Catholics better get to work fixing your Fucking reputation.

When I was in Chemo with Bernardin, we discussed this type of situation, and he felt strongly that it was counter to what the Church "should be" about.

Phleger is an embarrassement to the Catholic Archdioces and to the Catholic religion. I would like to see him get reassigned to Russia.

Does anyone have a good address to send complaint letters to the Catholic Church? Catholic priests are prohibited from engaging in politics. Not that I think writing letters will do any good, I know a nun and she says the Church really doesn't know what to do with this guy. I think I might write a letter anyway.

If Fr. Phleger want to use his professional status, as a Roman Catholic Priest in the Archdiocese of Chicago to influence goverment policy, then the Archdiocese should give up their tax excempt status.

We can use the extra tax money to pay the laid off bus drivers.

Fr. Phleger needs to realize the seperation of Church and State is no joke...

And, he is no activist leader...genuine spiritual leaders teach and mentor others toward leadership.

I agree with Anonymous who wrote that the Governent(s) should start
taxing those storefront churches
run by the Poverty Pimps on the
south and west sides like they do
every other business. Revoke their
501(c)3 exemption, if they even
bothered to spply for one, and their State charitable exemption.
They suck the money from people who
have very little or no hope and do
do not put in of the money into
improveing the plight of the people
or the neighborhood. The Preacher
uses the money to build a church
from the ground-up, buy a flashy
car, nice suits, and influence.
And the only thing the people get
from him is a promise of " pie in the sky " when they die. Maybe with
and ice cream topping if they have been good. I say tax them or close
them down.

Has the Catholic Church asked for fewer donations in this time of recession? His congregation doesn't give much anyway, they are supported by the "community fund" of the Archdiocese.

Pfleger's life story has been made into a movie. Wild, eh? In the Sun Times this past week he was interviewed and he commented on the "friends" he lost after his Clinton tirade. Implied that Daley and Obama, among others, no longer take his calls. Maybe this is his way of getting out of 42 short's doghouse.
Be careful, Mikey. Daley will throw you under the bus in a new york minute.

When are going to start going after these rev and take away their tax exemptions, they are not preachers, their church's are nothing more then political rallies. The Catholic Church along with cardinal George are going to have to grow a pair and do something with him, they want Catholics to come home, toss him out of the church and see if that helps.

Saw Pfleger at Fox's Beverly Pub last week with 12 middle aged "altar boys." He always invites 12 and refers to them to the waitress as his 12 disciples. I shit you not.
Most of them appeared to be light in the loafers.
Not easy to watch them shuck and jive. Plus the average I.Q. appeared to be really low.

I am a white cop and actually appreciated and supported Phleger for many years. But this time he is on the wrong side of the issue. When the workingman accepts an inferior wage so that another worker can be employted at an equally inferior wage, then management wins on both ends. And labor loses. When people are laid off, management loses a little too. Management doesn't lose when labor accepts furlough days and rescinded pay increases. Father Phleger has become a shill for the ruling class. Fuck you, Father Phleger.May you rot in hell for turning your back on the working class and becoming a shill for a CORRUPT AND INEFFECTUAL political regime.

Why the fuck does he come back to the old neighborhood with his disciples? Not enough "safe" places to eat at around Sabinas? When I was a kid, there was a place on every corner/block on 79th St- Halsted to Western to eat at. Wonder what happened...Hmmm??

The Fake Father Phleger gives anyone who wears the cloth a bad name. When I see him it makes me think less about anyone that calls themself a priest. He is proof that the catholic church is all about the money because he is a political scam artist and that's all he is.

First, who gives a shit what your race is. Second, the fact that you appreciated or supported this fraud fake father at anytime in your life makes me worry what type of a cop you are if you haven't been able to see what this guy is until now.

This position comes as no surprise. Fr. Pflaker has his nose so far up Richie's ass that when Richie sneezes Pflaker farts.

Remember who shared that who shared that 3rd base front-row seat at last year's Sox opener??? The Padre and the Mayor.

He gets so much money from Richie's Community block grants that he has to do his bidding. Where do you think the money comes from for the padre to run his entourage down to Springfield on-cue to argue for more gun control??

Didn't one of the cardinals attempt to move him and he threatened to quit? Should have called his bluff. Either he quit and problem solved. Or he is moved, loses face and problem solved.

This from the guy who had his own skeletons in the closet come out& sought to pray with death row inmates but never bothered to even acknowledge the victims families? Bernadin is keeping a seat warm for Phleger in Hades, that you can be sure of.
