You have got to be kidding me. Michael Pfleger? Michael Pfleger? Did Obama fall out of a stupid tree, hitting every stupid branch on the way down, only to fall on a pile of stupid sticks?

CBS 2 Chief Correspondent Jay Levine reports Obama felt betrayed and Wright felt sand-bagged. Father Michael Pfleger of St. Sabina Church said he has been speaking to both men as the events of the past 24 hours unfolded.

He counseled Obama Tuesday morning, and while CBS 2 talked to him Tuesday evening, Rev. Wright called his cell phone.

Who else comes to Obama’s defense?

Mayor Richard M. Daley called the current flap a dangerous distraction.

Because you know what Obama needed right about now? His name associated with “Mayor Daley”.
