Activist Chicago priest apologizes for mocking Clinton

An activist Chicago priest and supporter of presidential candidate Barack Obama says he's sorry for a sermon at Obama's church in which he mocked Hillary Rodham Clinton's tears before the New Hampshire primary.

The Reverend Michael Pfleger (FLAY'-ger) said at last Sunday's sermon that Clinton cried because she felt "entitled" and there's a "black man stealing my show."

Pfleger is pastor of Saint Sabina parish on the city's Southwest side. But he made the remarks at Obama's Trinity United Church of Christ.

Pfleger said Thursday that his sermon was "inconsistent with Senator Obama's life and message."

Obama said in a statement that he was "deeply disappointed" by Pfleger's "divisive, backward-looking rhetoric."
