From the Utica-Observer Dispatch, Utica, NY
UTICA -- When the Rev. William Procanick put his hand on the Bible during his sex-abuse trial in Oneida County Court earlier this year, he swore to tell the whole truth and nothing but the truth. But as the former Clinton pastor was sentenced Friday to three years in prison for inappropriately touching a 7-year-old girl at his home last March, Judge Michael L. Dwyer said Procanick sacrificed his honesty the day he testified. "As a minister of God, you got on the stand and you lied," Dwyer told Procanick, the 54-year-old former pastor of Resurrection Assembly of God church on Kirkland Avenue. A jury found Procanick guilty Jan. 22 of first-degree sexual abuse and endangering the welfare of a child.
Hillary is no more responsible for the actions of her ex-pastor as Obama is responsible for the actions of his ex-pastor. Let's just stick to the relevant issues such as gas prices, healthcare, and the economy. Choose the candidate that you feel will best represent your views and concerns.

I am the Senior Pastor of the Eureka TrueVine Baptist Church. In my ten year tenure, the church has grown from 10 to approximately 300. My personal mantra is to,”Meet the needs of the people, right where they are”. The Church Motto is “Real Ministry, with a Real Message, for Real People”. Family, social service and youth ministries are the foundational ministries of the church. I completed my undergraduate work in Psychology from Christian Brothers University and Jacksonville Theological Seminary and my graduate work from Jacksonville Theological Seminary in Theology and the Harvard University, School of Divinity. I was the first Director of Academic and Vocational Training for The Memphis Job Corps Center, and held the position of Facility Manager and instructor with Memphis City Schools Adult Basic Education Program at Tri-State Training Center and with the Title-One Program at Tall Trees Juvenile Detention Center. I served as the Chaplain of the Shelby County Detention Center and also at the Jail East “Women’s Jail”. Along with my pastoral duties, I am currently an administrator with the Shelby County Department of Corrections with the Fatherhood/Healthy Relationships Program. My wife of 19 years, Regina and I have 2 children, Frederick 13 and Alexis 11. Together we head the Memphis Area Youth Association, which is a youth athletic and educational support program with an abstinence base.
