I doubt he'll nominate another Catholic --- but I pray he will. If not Catholic, an Evangelic. I can already hear the screams from Shumer! LOL.
It is called the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. There is always a "human sacrifice" -- Our Lord, Jesus Christ.
Y'know, this is kind of odd, given the Gospel for today.
The workers in the vineyard stole the crop, wounded, stoned and killed the owner's servants, and then murdered his son. "And what should be done to these servants?" Jesus asked the Pharisees. "These shameful men should be put to death shamefully," they replied. And Jesus said he would take the Kingdom away from those who had abused it and give it to another.
One of the reasons Bush was elected is because he promised to appoint Supreme Court judges who would be guided by the U. S. Constitution and so would radically change the leftist trend the Court has followed in the last half of the last century.
Roberts, Scalia, Kennedy and Thomas are Catholics. We need just one more for a majority.

Dear gpapa,
There is no evidence that Mr. Kennedy is a bona fide Catholic.
The apostate will be quite fortunate to avoid the fires of Hell.

Is Clarence Thomas catholic?
I knew I'd get this. thanks. it was a lawyer joke, by the way.
Yes he is.
Yes he is.
He certainly is.
Give President Bush a little credit. There are 55 Republicans, plus Nelson of Nebraska. The other 44 are worthless. But, out of those 56 possible yes votes, you have Chaffee Snowe Collins, Nelson, Specter--I am down to 51 already. Bush needs to consider the Senate's reaction. Unfortunately, he doesn't have enough votes to do any old thing he wants to do.
That said, he could probably prevail with most of the conservative judges whose names have been tossed around...
Not so strange if you realize that the "son" was Christ and the "workers" were the Pharisees and the government officials of the time.
He was kind of poking them, and unless they had sound scriptural knowledge, they'd never know it.
Kinda funny.
When I heard "Red Mass" this morning I wondered if anyone/everyone understood the significance of the color "red". The color of martyrs and innocents babies aborted.
Indeed a RED Mass is called for to commemorate the deaths of the Holy Innocents alone!
Evidently it's a traiditional Mass that all Supreme Court Justices attend.
**And Jesus said he would take the Kingdom away from those who had abused it and give it to another.**
I truly believe that anyone who has supported abortion in any form whatsoever will not enter the kingdom of heaven unless they repent, repent, repent, repent, repent, -- You get the picture.
Now, I'm off to say the one Rosary for the unborn I promised to say today.
