PODESTA MUST NOW BE FIRED
http://www.catholicleague.org ^ | 10/13/2016 | Bill Donohue

We have long known that George Soros is the single most influential donor to dissident, and anti-Catholic, organizations. Now we know from Wikileaks what I long have suspected: John Podesta has been the most influential point man running offense for Soros. Together, they have sought to manipulate public opinion against the Catholic Church.

In 2012, Sandy Newman, founder of the left-wing group, Voices for Progress, asked Podesta for advice on how best to “plant the seeds of the revolution.” The revolution he sought was an attempt to sunder the Catholic Church. Newman, who is Jewish, confessed that he was a rookie at trying to subvert the Catholic Church. But he was determined to do so.

“There needs to be a Catholic Spring,” Newman told Podesta, “in which Catholics themselves demand the end of a middle ages dictatorship and the beginning of a little democracy and respect for gender equality in the Catholic Church.”

Podesta not only endorsed the plan to create a revolution within the Catholic Church—he boasted that he had been working on this for years. “We created Catholics in Alliance for the Common Good to organize for a moment like this,” he said. “Likewise Catholics United. Like most Spring movements, I think this one will have be bottom up.” He recommended that Kathleen Kennedy Townsend be consulted on this effort.

The evidence is indisputable: Both of these groups, Catholics in Alliance and Catholics United, were created by Podesta, and funded by Soros, for the express purpose of staging a revolt within the Catholic Church. In 2008, Archbishop Charles Chaput, then of Denver and now of Philadelphia, accused both entities of doing a “disservice” to the Catholic Church.

It’s too bad this idiot, Bill Donoghue, opposed Trump and his nomination. Now he wants that same apparatus to fight for him. Donoghue pissed off alot of Catholics over his position on Trump. He should have been more careful.

If the press were in any way fair of impartial this would headline news presented with outrage every day.

The attack is against what they call “conservative Catholics” ...those of us who follow the Church’s teachings / true Doctrine. They love the “progressive Catholics,” like Kreepy Kaine, and Pope Francis. (Podesta is on the faculty at Georgetown Law School. Kreepy was a member of the Jesuit Volunteer Corps in Honduras, so there’s your Jesuit connection.)

Not here in Pittsburgh. Too many are still drinking the Kool-Aid handed down from their grandfather's union hall. The local Diocese does precious little to try and change that.

I'm really sorry to hear that! We need to pray that hearts change.

That’s interesting. I hadn’t followed Donahue’s stance on Trump. Well, just another dope looking for a messiah rather than a man who will stand up to the far left.

The Catholic Legion of Decency started forcing Hollywood to tone down it’s filth in 1934. Talk to anyone who works in Hollywood and you’d swear that happened last Tuesday.

They have a bitter, burning case of red posterior over this, and have definitely been out for revenge.

Despite the seriousness of their plottings, I had to laugh out loud about planning to infiltrate the Church. Infiltration started from the beginning of the Church. Communists have tried from their inception, and almost succeeded in the US, reaching a peak approximately in the 80’s-90’s. That was especially exposed in the child abuse scandals we saw in 2002 and since, but well known to alert Catholics decades before. Donna Steichen’s book, “Ungodly Rage,” exposed the feminist angle of that invasion.
This little exchange sounds so much like the Screwtape Letters, with Sandy Newman being the clueless nephew writing to his Uncle Beelzebul.

“Church-going Catholics vote Republican by a wide margin. Catholics in name only.”

Very true.

Because left-wing Caholics agree with the Podesta assessment of the Catholic Church, and thus do not feel insulted?

Just a wild guess.

I turned down an opportunity to join my Parish Council because six of the exiting members were public school teachers, and the meetings all devolved into union hall scrums.

How could he be fired for doing what he’s paid to do? That’s like saying the mob should fire their enforcers or banks should fire their bill collector intimidators.

The promoters of abortion have on true fierce enemy. That’s more important than money and power. It bugs them
