Descriptions of Clintons such as adulteress
No longer mentioned by a media that’s idolatrous
Not Hubble or Huma
Or other friend of Bubba
Are mentioned in a media afraid of being called minacious.

To a weak-kneed crapweasel like Boehner, principled commitment seems very minacious so he withers and quits in face of it.

OTOH, if Mitt were to through his hat into the ring, what would poor Ann Coulter do with her two favorite Northeastern Moderate Republicans facing off against each other in the primary?

[VRWCmember]

Obligatory Coulter pic since I mentioned her in my comment. After all, rules is rules.

Well, OK. I will give you that one.

I wonder how many people in Kim Davis’ church will take offense at her meeting with the Pope.

[xsmommy]

There may be some, but honestly I know a fair # of evangelical Christians and they are generally not remotely like the pretty awful ones we see bashing Catholics on FR.

[SoothingDave]

True

[tioga]

Other churches here do not Catholic bash like they do here on FR.

[tioga]

spiritdaily.com has that kind of thing, current books you might like, too. Michael Brown was a reporter who encountered God and now is a Catholic icon. He gives retreats, writes books, and host the website. I met him once, very spiritual Godly man. I was impressed. His first book, The Final Hour, is about his encounter and the change in direction of his life.

[xsmommy]

seriously, I have NOWHERE experienced anything like I have seen on FR from the supposed Christians.

[xsmommy]

I have been to the site, but didn’t know that, I will look into it more. thanks.

The crazies say Global Warming is upon us
when all they say is just minacious.
They think they can predict
that is their schtick
yet they hardly know the weather around us.

Example: ....

[SoothingDave]

Makes me want spaghetti for dinner.

[tioga]

I couldn't have gotten in to the Papal mass, yet an openly gay man was asked to do a reading? WHY??? It's one thing to accept sinners in our church, it's quite another to have them do the readings as a church leader.

[tioga]

Looks like someone was eating spaghetti, dropped it on the map, and voilà....a prediction!

To answer your question: It’s pretty clear what the Cardinal of New York is. By his fruits he is known.
