[Pio]

Some of us are preparing for the Catholic reconquista of California. Dear, sweet Pio understands this pressing matter

Private Pio reporting for duty , snowblower at the ready. One bag of marbles and it all over.

Keep the Mexicans, Central Americans, South Americans and Filipinos coming..they may be flirting with the Protties but all we need do is get a good Pope in here for a visit to rile things up.

When the Catholics awaken they will be the ENTs in the Tolkein novel...right now they are debating...stirring to life..slowly, methodically...then we'll get Jeb Bush in '08 or I'll settle for '12..... he's Catholic, a Bush with Pro-life street-cred, Hispanic kids and wifey...besides he's the SMART one.

And there will be plenty of rice, beans and beer to go around.

I repeat the Catholic vote in Virginia went 70% for Bush compared 55% nationally. I just bet it wasn't even that high in CA. If you are looking for Christendom Redux here in North Amercia you better be looking to the Old Dominion.
