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.

In both situations, this should not have any reflection on the candidates for President. They are their spiritual counselors ONLY, now mind you that Hilary Pastor’s situation is quite different from Obama’s pastor. I heard the full sermon so people may get mad but I am thinking what is the big deal. Being that these are their spiritual advisors does not mean they are joined at the hip so to speak. I am sure they do not totally agree with everything their pastors do or say. Hilary has pastor problems just like Obama because their Pastors are human. I am sure if I was running for a prestigious position they would dissect you as my pastor. This political arena is getting uglier by the minute! I expect more dirty laundry to be exposed!

Thank you for bring this point to light; however, I can tell people will not find it to be out of character. I find the actions of Hillary's pastor to be more devastating than Obama's pastor. If her pastor has acted inappropriately with children where is the outcry from the community? How could Hillary just stand straight-faced before the American People criticizing Obama when she is aware of the skeleton in her pastor's closet. It is so sad that the white conservative talkshow hosts have failed to mention this incident.

LOL, IrishOaks, LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I dunno...Clinton's pastor would seem to want his predilictions out of the media where Obama's apparently wants to be nothing BUT in the media.

Obviously, we're not talking apples and oranges, but I think, perhaps - and this is WAY telling of our day and age - Obama's pastor is potentially more damning to the task at hand. I mean, for the love of Pete! Obama's pastor hates America (or at the very least uses invective leading the listener to that very point).

Hillary's pastor is a criminal - I can think of several congressional members with that on their record...and that's not even including the Kennedy's, LOL. If you include them, I'd say it's a gaggle...at least.

Not that I condone what this as*hat did - he's obviously an imbecile. Our elected greats tend to surround themselves with them.

You can't swing a dead cat around without hitting a moron in some of our elected people's entourage...globally, nationally, or locally.

ROTF. :)
