Priest defends Reverend Wright from O'Reilly Stooge

At the risk of this having already been diaried, given that the video is over a week old, I decided to push forward anyway. It took me almost 40 minutes to download the video on my dial-up and it was worth every minute. I found the video originally on Brad's Blog through a link on Raw Story, then went to YouTube to get the embed.

Rev. Michael Pfleger apparently committed the mortal sin of having invited Rev. Wright to his parish to hear Maya Angelou speak. Being the great guardian of American morality and righteousness that he is, O'Reilly sent one of his goons to confront the good Father and find out why he would invite such a racist, hatemongering anti-American to attend an event at his church? "Is this the kind of message you want your church to hear? (paraphrased because I can't remember it exactly)"
