One of my co-workers is in his parish - I'll ask her which one it is....

(later) She goes to Blessed Sacrament, and Jim Moran is there frequently, but she doesn't know if he's actually registered there, and she says he goes around to the other parishes too. She also told me that one of the priests at Blessed Sacrament got into a pushing match with him over his voting record. The priest was transferred soon after.

Pro Choice = Pro Abortion

Why do we allow the Enemy (Liberals) to control the terms of the discussion? I am actively ANTI-Political Correctness. Politically correct speech is thought control. Liberals “Choose” the words and what they will mean, this corrupts the English language to the point we are left arguing what “is” is. I personally make it a point when discussing politics with a leftist to call a rock a rock, and translate whenever they try to hide behind “nice” sounding words. Please do not give them the Phyrric victory of using the terms they set for the discussion of this important topic. Thanks </Rant>

=== I think it's time Catholics moved their public protests to the front lawns of their own bishops.


Hear hear.

To: Just mythoughts
Here in the Spokane Diocese of Eastern Washington, we have this 10 million dollar drive going on for a new seminary, and I can attest to the fact that many that I know will not give, coming so close to all the payoffs of those children hurt by priests in the past.

.. I feel that it may just be a slush fund for the payoffs without we Catholic laity being offended.

its a hard decision, but someone wrote somewhere that a poorer church is not necessarily a bad thing...

Kerry's and Kennedy's choice to remain "Catholic" is for the public consumption and political aspirations only.....

viability and all that...

Kudos to your wife for fighting the good fight.
I seem to be suffering from Katholisch weldschmerz lately, and I think the American Bishops and their complicity in evil is part of my problem.
If only I could trade my weldschmerz for Stockholm Syndrome.

Excellent, Don-O.

Get Mrs. Don-O on here with her own FR screen name, she's got great Catholic Caucus potential ;-)

Quite an impressive letter. Your wife's writing style is direct and to the point. Her letter, jam packed with excellent arguments, is thought provoking and yet comparatively brief. At the very least, it will definitely give the bishops pause for thought.

In behalf if Mrs don-o, I say go for it. She has mailed to all the bishops, but feel free to use some of her ideas to write your own.

(A straight copy might have less impact.)
