Reverend Vanilla Ice Sent On Leave

This was a no-brainer. Longtime pal of the freshly-coronated Barack Obama Rev. Michael Pfleger has been removed from his duties.

The firebrand pastor of St. Sabina parish was 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.

Hopefully, Pfleger's leave willl include psychiatric evaluation and sensitivity training to gain more cultural awareness. Oh, and not to be such a dumb fuck as to go on tirades while the satellite feed is on.

Idiot.

I'm sure the media will be all over Obama with questions tonight.

As if.

And to bid farewell to the psycho pastor:
