Priests do not take vows of poverty, unless they belong to a religious order.
He likely solicitied parishoners and people who shared his views.
This particular priest was very active in fighting a number of social evils in his community, and in no way would I fault him for such, as struggling for jusitce and works of mercy are part of the call of any follower of Christ.; however, Catholic Priests are supposed to refrain from public endorsements of political candidates, and absolutely turn away from liberation theology in any form.

Wow... so much for the vow of poverty... and a few election campaign laws to boot! addition to giving $20,000 of his own money to Jeremiah Wright, as a state senator Obama directed $225,000 of the Illinois taxpayers' money for programs run by Father Pfleger. In the U.S. Senate, Obama earmarked $100,000 in federal tax money for Father Pfleger's work. Giving someone more than 300 grand is not just some tenuous, coincidental association. Read More

Ok, so there is still no actual personal link between the two proven. So we are essentially playing six degrees of seperation then. That being the case, Bushy 2 and I are essentially bedfellows then since I gave money to his first presidential bid. I never realized Bush and I were so close and connected... I wish I could have counseled him better

Of course there is a far more direct and personal involvement between the great lord dramaramabamessiah and corrupt financier Tony Rezko, who helped him purchase their home.

I am just convinced that Obama's judgment and decision making is second to none. Just look how quickly he decided to quit the church after these diatribes were reported. Judgment like his only comes along once a generation. We would be remiss if we didn't acknowlege and take advantage of it. Don't be so sarcastic Straw. AFter all, Obama has a wealth of experience in his 2.5 years as a U.S. Senator, and of course, he'll turn that 5% unemployment the U.S. has been experiencing up on it head, with a steam rolling economy filled with fair and impartial taxes on the collective.---->The Borg have nothing on the Dem Party, nothing

AFter all, Obama has a wealth of experience in his 2.5 years as a U.S. Senator 2 of which he has spent fulfilling the great senatorial calling of running for president.

straw, are you kidding me? How fast? When Wright was making all his America-hating sermons Hussein didn't denounce him at all. He spoke of the man like a father-figure.

That being the case, Bushy 2 and I are essentially bedfellows then since I gave money to his first presidential bid. I never realized Bush and I were so close and connected... I wish I could have counseled him better from the Wall Street Journal "A 2004 Chicago Sun-Times interview with Mr. Obama mentioned three men as his religious guides. One was Rev. Wright. Another was Father Michael Pfleger, the Louis Farrakhan ally whose recent remarks caused Mr. Obama to resign from Trinity, but for whose Chicago church Mr. Obama channeled at least $225,000 in grants as a state senator. Until recently, the priest was connected to the campaign, which flew him to Iowa to host an interfaith forum. Father Pfleger's testimony for the candidate has since been scrubbed from Mr. Obama's campaign Web site. A third mentor was Illinois state Senator James Meeks, another Chicago pastor who has generated controversy for mixing pulpit and politics." Perhaps there is a personal connection between Obamasiah and this priest.
