While Congress was in recess, immigrants and supporters continued to rally for humane immigration reform throughout the country. In Los Angeles, religious leaders from Christian, Jewish and Muslim traditions and several thousand people gathered downtown for a vigil and procession that emphasized American pride, inclusiveness, peaceful demonstration and affirming the democratic process.

Doesn't Mahony sound more like a politician than a bishop?

I'll say it again, this critical issue has made for some strange bedfellows.
Go to the marxist groups websites that are paying for in support of the illegal alien invaders. Read some very very chilling articles. Beside the facts everyone appears to be ignoring, their threats to shut down our ports, railroads, economy read their articles and see that they are not just threats. They mean harm to the U.S.
The Catholic Church supports the illegal alien invaders because that's their base of supporters. After they steal welfare benefits from America they have money to send donations.
Maybe the reason Cardinal Mahony supports illegal immigration is that he's running out of American children to molest.
