I don't think that excommunication means anything to her.

She uses her membership in the Catholic church for her own advantage, but then does whatever she damn well pleases, even if it's against Catholic teachings.

How telling that the Catholic Church would have anything to do with Bella who assaults the Church's teachings at every turn.

Fat Ted, sKerry and Bella. Catholics all.

Shame on the Catholic church for allowing this vulgar riff-raff to pollute your church.

It aint like the Old Days whe being Excommunicated meant something. The Catholic Church in the USA{ Of which I used to be a member} has gone so far to the left on a lot of things.
Like other people have commented, look at the people who call themselves Catholic. Kennedy, Kerry, Pelosi, etc etc.
The RC church has to go back to the roots that made it a great religion, like the GOP has to go back to do the same. Both groups have lost their way.

They're not criminals. They're politicians. Criminals at least have a half-assed code of honor.

Chameleon-like appeal to coalitions of collectivists.

True. But it might mean QUITE a bit to the Catholics she's trying to woo. Here's hoping...Benny's last job before becoming Il Papo was head of the Inquisition [under its new name].

She is NOT Catholic!

Walking into a Church doesn't make you a member of that religion.
You must profess the beliefs and teachings of that religion.

She does not!

Pelosi joins Kerry, Kennedy, and many other FORMER Catholics who dishonor the Catholic faith. It is time the conference of Bishops stood up and defended the faith. I wonder where they are because people like this are some of the most anti-Catholic people in the Congress.

No, she's still a 'San Francisco liberal'. There isn't enough newsprint in the world to re-make this pig into a silk purse!! Not even in the MSM!!

Exactly, the extreme delusion of liberals and their media is shocking isn't it?

Much like Kennedy, Kerry and Rudy.

Amazing how the media thought it was dangerous for Republicans to be religious people, yet here they are, celebrating the fact that Ms. Pelosi is Catholic. I guess it's because she's the only kind of Catholic they like; one that rejects a large part of the teachings of the Church, and is VERY public about it.

It's absurb that these do these little publicity stunts; but they do and it cost a lot of money to honor oneself.
