Pelosi: Catholic bishops are ‘lobbyists’

But I bet they are holy men we should listen to if they start yammering about social justice.

[Old Sarge]

FUNP!

[E. Pluribus Unum]

The mythical "separation of Church and State" is a one-way street, you see.

[Diogenesis]

What is Ms. Pelosi?

She suborned perjury for the undocumented Tyrant.

Was that before, or after, her journey to Damascus
as a lobbyist for what, exactly?

[Doogle]

...and Nancy Pelosi is a moron

[goldi]

I thought this was one of those “semi-satire” whatever articles. I guess not.

[Da Coyote]

Warning, sexist language ahead.

Is there any way we can put this brainless, clueless, bimbo away in a home for the brainless?

Really, she is so demonstrably incompetent that she even makes the Cretin-in-Chief seem normal in comparison.

Nancy, we know how you got to where you are. And it wasn’t due to talent or intelligence.

[oh8eleven]

when it comes to their efforts to protect the rights of Catholics to follow their church’s teachings in law she considers them simply “lobbyists” with whom she has her disagreements.
Anyone know what she has to say about the Imams' efforts to protect the rights of Mooslimbs to follow the Koran? Does she have disagreements?
Anyone? Anyone? Bueller?

[uncbob]

Pelosi, who describes herself as “a devout Catholic,”

Never fails to amaze me how politicians can lie so easily

[G Larry]

Nancy might want to start “lobbying” for her final judgement.

[uncbob]

But I bet they are holy men we should listen to if they start yammering about social justice.

And the left had no problem when they were backing a Nuclear freeze during Reagan's tenure

And they surely have no problems with the REV Al and the REV Jesse being in politics or with the outright politicking from the pulpit in the black churches

[BenKenobi]

Looks?

[Bitsy]

Nancy needs an excommunication or an exorcism. Is her bishop not listening to this old idiot or is the church benefiting from her financial gifts?

[BenKenobi]

It’s a class skill. She needs more points in bluff though...

[5thGenTexan]

When are these bishops going to rise up and take away her facade of “devout Catholic” with a very public excommunication?

I'm not Catholic but I despise how she uses the Church, and by extension, desensitizes the entire Catholic body by being allowed to live as she does without consequences from the Church.

[cripplecreek]

We do need to have a serious conversation about lobbying but Catholic Bishops are not the problem. The problem is the hundreds of former congressmen who are lobbyists and the fact that the majority of staffers on Capitol Hill are lobbyists.

Just one example I can think of off the top of my head is Jim McDermott. His chief of staff and every last staffer who works under her, came from the NEA. Care to guess who the single largest donor to Jim McDermott is?

JFK started this.

[laweeks]

She should be publicly and loudly excommunicated by the Catholic Church . . . why they put up with this putty/spackle faced devil’s wife is beyond me.

[5thGenTexan]

JFK started this.

Agreed, but JFK did not flaunt his transgressions. And even Teddy was largely supportive of the Church doctrine in public forums, though his personal actions were easily followed and known to be in conflict.

What I see as different with Pelosi is she repeatedly publicly challenges and marginalizes Church doctrine. Others just are seen as not walking the walk - she calls the Church WRONG.
