Dr. Eckleburg made the sweeping statement that "there is NO SUCH THING as a "conservative" Roman Catholic."
Any one here want to agree with such an outlandish statement?
I know many (not all) Freepers are trying to purge anyone here who doesn't worship Sarah Palin, but it would be news to me if most Freepers agree with the statement that there aren't ANY conservative Catholics. Actually it would be news to a lot of people in my home state of Louisiana.
I put up with enough anti-Catholic bigotry from the likes of Maureen Dowd. If conservatives want to be the angry, white Southern Protestant party, it's going to be a minority party for a long, long time to come.

Any one here want to agree with such an outlandish statement? Actually, the operative question here ought to be "Any one here want to ADMIT THAT THEY agree with such an outlandish statement?"

If and when I ever meet a Roman Catholic who seriously disagrees with Ratzinger's "global authority" encyclical and voices that disagreement, I'll reconsider.
But a mind that does not know liberty cannot conceive of liberty. It thinks it is free even as its shackles weigh it down.
