Cardinal removes Pfleger from St. Sabina parish

BY KARA SPAK Staff Reporter
The firebrand pastor of St. Sabina parish was effectively removed from his duties there Tuesday, according to a statement released by the Archdiocese of Chicago.

In the statement, Cardinal Francis George says he asked the Rev. Michael Pfleger, 59, to "take leave for a couple of weeks from his pastoral duties." The statement said Pfleger "does not believe this to be the right step at this time." "While respecting his disagreement, I have nevertheless asked him to use this opportunity to reflect on his recent statements and actions in the light of the Church's regulations for all Catholic priests," George said.

The recent statements in question were video clips broadcast on You Tube where Pfleger mocked Hillary Clinton for crying on the campaign trail. He suggested her tears were due to "white entitlement" leading Clinton to believe the Democratic nomination should go to her, not Barack Obama.

Pfleger has been a priest for 33 years, serving nearly all that time at St.

Sabina's in the Auburn-Gresham neighborhood.

Fr. William Vanecko, Pastor of St. Kilian's parish, will be temporary administrator of St. Sabina's, the statement said.

"I ask the members of St. Sabina's parish to cooperate with him and to keep him and Fr. Pfleger in their prayers," the statement reads. "They are in mine."

Hallelujah!

Where do people find time for all this hate?

STATEMENT OF FRANCIS CARDINAL GEORGE, O.M.I.,
ARCHBISHOP OF CHICAGO
June 3, 2008

To put recent events in some perspective, I have asked Father Michael Pfleger, Pastor of St. Sabina’s Parish, to step back from his obligations there and take leave for a couple of weeks from his pastoral duties, effective today. Fr. Pfleger does not believe this to be the right step at this time. While respecting his disagreement, I have nevertheless asked him to use this opportunity to reflect on his recent statements and actions in the light of the Church’s regulations for all Catholic priests. I hope that this period will also be a time away from the public spotlight and for rest and attention to family concerns.

I hope also that the life of St. Sabina’s parish may continue in uninterrupted fashion. Fr. William Vanecko, Pastor of St. Kilian’s parish, will be temporary administrator of St. Sabina’s and will assure the full complement of ministerial services during this period. I ask the members of St. Sabina’s parish to cooperate with him and to keep him and Fr. Pfleger in their prayers. They are in mine.

re: #33 Ward Cleaver

Yes, way too long. In fact, he has never been to any other parish. He started as an associate pastor there, and became pastor. He also stayed there too long as pastor, being as this was his fourth term. A term is 6 years, and a pastor is only supposed to stay 2 terms, 3 if there is a petition, but that's it. A fourth requires a sign-off by the Vatican. They did not get Vatican approval for Pfleger's fourth term.

He's easing Pfleger out of there. The people of the parish at St. Sabina's were more attached to Pfleger than the Church. This finally give Cardinal George the excuse to get Pfleger out of there without driving anyone away.

Here's another one from CBS2:

Indications are that another Chicago priest would take over at St. Sabina, while plans for the permanent reassignment of Father Pfleger, who's been there far longer than is customary in the archdiocese, would be accelerated.

Pfleger has been pastor of the predominantly African-American St. Sabina parish, at 1210 W. 78th St., since 1981. He has gained notoriety for his political activism on behalf of gun control, racial and social equality, and intervention against youth violence.

There's quite a cult of personality that surrounds Fr. Pfleger at that parish. If they move him permanently, the face and personalty of St. Sabina's will change dramatically.

Hey check this out.

The scumbag at the HuffPo, Sam Sedaei, who argued "Whack"minijad was not saying he would wipe Israel off the map wrote another garbage laced anti-Israel "article". I wrote a response to it, and the response to me was so vitriolic and anti-Semitic...

...that is was named as a "HuffPO's Pick" by their editors.

Sam Sedaei's screed and comments

Palistidiots, nuff said.

Thanks for posting the pictures, Zombie! I saw one of my family members in a couple of pictures on your site... (three of us were there, all told)

And for those who were concerned about the boy in the picture - his dad and big brother were close by, along with several cops, and it was a completely peaceful protest - so you shouldn't worry. I heard that some teens later crossed the street to confront the real thugs... but the cops shooed them back.

I had fun telling the Jewish "(Men and) Women in Black" they were a "shanda" and an embarrassment. They were supposed to be silent, but one guy finally got irked and came up with a real snappy comeback: "YOU'RE an embarrassment!" Me? I was standing peacefully with my big American flag... My husband mostly told the women they'd look good in a burqa - or "How would you like being wife #3?"

Honestly, I had to restrain the urge to smack the smug, superior expressions off their faces. 60 years of expulsion? Of occupation? Their signs didn't even make sense. I started chanting "End Hamas' occupation of Palestine" whenever I saw one of the "occupation" signs. And when the thugs chanted "Free, free Palestine," my husband shot back with "Whine, whine, Palestine". Heh.

OK Everyone -

A number of us (myself included) were loudly addressing the BAWiB as communist Jew haters as they smugly paraded in front of the us.

This is the same group that has called the cops on us numerous times for simple standing on the same strip of sidewalk as they or for facing them from a different direction at the Saturday counter-protests.

It's worth noting that a majority of them are also Jews, albeit, self-hating ones.

I'd also like to take time to give a big middle finger to the SFPD. Jerks.

Sorry Zombie...there is no escape.

I was there for most of the event. Lots of singing, children's activities, good food, and plenty of information about Israel. My family thoroughly enjoyed the afternoon.

Inside the festival you could not see or hear the protesters. They were a non-factor. Plus there are several entrances to Yerba Buena Gardens, so many festival participants never even noticed that there was a protest.

Helluva day to release this, huh. Sorry dude(ette).
