Participant in previous Folsom Street Fair, which features public displays of nudity and sexual fetishes Asked to respond to a San Francisco "gay"-festival's promo mocking the Last Supper of Jesus Christ, the chief spokesman for House Speaker Nancy Pelosi offered a dismissive quip.
"As a Catholic, the speaker is confident that Christianity has not been harmed," said Drew Hammill, the San Francisco Democrat's press secretary.
WND reported earlier this week the Last Supper poster promoting the Folsom Street Fair replaces the bread and wine with sex toys and depicts Jesus Christ and his disciples as "half-naked homosexual sadomasochists."
Scheduled for Sunday, the annual sadomasochistic "leather event" features public displays of nudity and sexual acts.
After the ad was exposed by the Christian group Concern Women for America, the Catholic League for Religious and Civil Rights pressed the Miller Brewing Co. to remove its logo from the poster. With the logo still in place despite a promise from Miller, along with the beer giant's continued sponsorship, the Catholic group is calling for a boycott of the company.
CWA noted Pelosi, a major supporter of homosexual activism, will receive an award Oct. 6 from the "gay rights" group Human Rights Campaign.

CWA has asked California's elected officials including Pelosi, Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sens. Dianne Feinstein and Barbara Boxer to "publicly condemn this unprovoked attack against Christ and His followers."
Matt Barber, CWA's policy director for cultural issues, said his organization has "photographic evidence the San Francisco government suspends indecency and child abuse laws for a day allowing fair goers to parade the streets of San Francisco, fully nude, engaging in illegal public sex while taxpayer funded police stand-by and do nothing."

Christianity has not been "harmed" but Jesus Christ our Lord has been insulted by allowing the Last Supper to be depicted sacrilegiously.
And to think this city was named after St. Francis...

Mrs. Pelosi has a San Francisco district that has a very high homosexual representation.
Liberal isn’t even a word that fits.
Of course she supports the homosexual agenda.
I guess Christianity wasn’t harmed by people sacrificing to the emperor back in the 3d century AD either, but the holy martyrs refused to do it and went to their deaths in the arena as witnesses for Christ. Alleged Catholic Pelosi can’t even witness for Him by suffering the slight inconvenience of ticking off her gay voter base. I guess that’s good for her in this world, but I wouldn’t count on an enthusiastic reception in the next.
I faxed this to the corp office. :)
Pelosi is a Pagan who supports :The Democrat Platform mandates
The Genocide of Innocent babies ( 3000 / day murdered )
The deconstruction of the family through the promotion of perversion.
The surrender of this sovereign nation to invaders.
Do you need more ?
Don’t buy Miller, anyway. They’ve been strong backers of illegal immigrants for some time.
The Coors family is known for being active in conservative politics.
If you’re going to drink the swill that is big-label domestic American beer, drink a Coors and rest your conscience. ;)
What's not to love?
hey, we’ve all seen the pic...we don’t need to see it again!
A mighty broad statement begging for clarification!
A cursory review of history would certainly bear this out.
I’m just trying to figure out what all the stuff on the table is for...
Let them have their ‘fair’. The more of this there is, the more people will vote towards the opposite end of the political spectrum.
What was her position about flushing the koran down the toilet? I bet she was opposed.
“What was her position about flushing the koran down the toilet? I bet she was opposed.”
don’t know, don’t care
I just got off the phone with both her offices in SF & DC.
Read them the riot act!
“If Pelosi is going to continue calling herself a Catholic, she should start acting like one!”
BIG SMILE
