Islam is a protected religion, but the Catholic Church is the enemy.
Anti-Catholicism really is the last acceptable form of bigotry in the U.S.
>>However, her comment on the First Amendment was poorly phrased.<<
True.
She didn’t mean the “Maybe” part.
She ment that with the utmost respect....
Let’s see, according to liberals, there’s should be a right to health care and a right to free contraception but no right to religious liberty. That one can be tossed.
Hutcheson believed that the right to judgement or belief was an unalienable natural right.Jefferson was well aware that the opinions and belief of men depend not on their own will, but follow involuntarily the evidence proposed to their minds.
Maybe the Founding Fathers made that minor “mistake” with the historical perspective, totally missed by this editor, that this country was founded by Protestants and Catholics fleeing religious persecution.
“’What [the Obama administration is] doing is guaranteeing people, you know, these Catholic outfits and others can’t serve the populations that they were called to serve.’ That’s a good point.”
“That’s a good point”!! What’s good about it? What conceivable superior knowledge of this administration could possibly qualify it (or this nitwit columnist) to determine what medical or other services “these Catholic outfits” must offer? Surely, The Blaze isn’t praising such inanity. If so, that’s the end of The Blaze for me.
Maybe the Founding Fathers were right about tar and feathers.
Maybe the Founders were wrong to guarantee freedom of the press in the First Amendment ...
If, according to this burned-out bulb, the Founding Fathers made one mistake; then perhaps they made more. Let’s see what else is a bother: guns, trial by jury, illegal searches, right to one’s property, state’s rights, limited government.
Wait, except for the guns, all those rights have been nullified by SCOTUS.
Give Obama credit for not being a Nazi. Hilter felt he was too weak politically to take on the Church during the War. He intended to even up the score with the Catholic Church after the War.
Yes. I'm SURE that's all it was. I'm sure the editor of one of the nation's largest newspapers simply lacks the English language skills to clearly state her thoughts and ideas. That being the case, perhaps she should resign...
It won’t be long before this country has its own “kristalnacht” where Leftist/Democrat/Union thugs attack and vandalize Christian-owned businesses.
Germany 1933 is starting to look very familiar.
oh, right, it's "their" guy doing this.

Bill of rights bump.
“But the comment about the founders seems startling. Newsbusters may have put it best when it said, “Henneberger’s larger point was defensive of the Catholic Church and of religious liberty. However, her comment on the First Amendment was poorly phrased.”
I think she meant it just the way she said. It reflects the same ideology as BHO’s when he said the Founders made it difficult for him to force Congress and do all that he wanted.
Very disturbing. Our Constitution, religion and WE are all under attack by powerful forces.

Founders are all spinning now in the grave at about 3000 RPM.
