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."

“This is just sickening!”
yep... I called Pelosi’s offices and read them the riot act...
What is she going to say?? That her constituents are vile, perverted and intolerant? Or that she condemns something as sacred as the Last Supper being used to promote hedonism, sodomy, sex toys and some queer fest in SF?
She could barely disagree with Moron.Org calling our commanders betrayers of the nation.
Those good old fashion San Francisco Family Values!
All Christians should be offended by this ad, not just Catholics. Still I’m not going to burn down the Danish embassy, but I will boycott Miller swill.
Well if she were any kind of Catholic & Christian, she would
say “ I don’t like the poster.”
It ain’t hard to say, it just takes a little courage.
Courage that Pelosi doesn’t have.
The problem is that the ‘Rat party has allowed the homo “tail” to wag the jackass.
I would really like to know how we ever lose Congress or the Presidency to these fools. Don’t tell me you can’t nationalize issues like this concerning Herr Pelosi, Kennedy, and Hitlery. I swear to God if someone in our corner had the slightest amount of balls and vision, the Dems wouldn’t have a seat left in Washington...
PS:
I wonder if someone were to dress like Mohammed and perform faux sex acts on a pig, would Mr. Pelosi be so quick to forgive?
It’s really not that difficult...when you look at the RINO’s that we have in the Congress.
The “R” had the majority for 12 years and didn't know how to rule as a majority.
As far as I am concerned, we have only had ONE, count ‘em ONE decent POTUS in my lifetime...Reagan!
And Reagan was the only decent governor of CA in my lifetime !
The GOP has become the Gelding Old Party and you ask why we ever lose the Congress or Presidency...when you put up weak-kneed RINO’s against Lefties...the Lefties will win every time because they've had more experience at giving stuff away & social engineering than the RINO’s
Just look at the Senate...a bunch of Lefties & RINO's!
You can probably count on one hand the number of conservatives in the Senate and I bet you can't name more than a dozen conservatives in the House! And don't get me started with GWB!!! The man is DEEF. After 9/11, he should have secured BOTH BORDERS & ALL PORTS, deported every foreign muzzie and illegal alien in America! Now we have MILLIONS of illegals and only God knows how many muzzie terrorists roaming about the country unabated just waiting to blow us all to hell and back!
Hey Miller Beer, Your Bada is about to get Binged...
She is no more a Catholic than she is a Patriot.
She should be excommunicated from the church and have her citizenship revoked.
How I wish that I could argue with you. But, the truth is the truth.
Exactly! She sets herself up for judgement when she goes along with this crap.
What we have here...is a failure to excommunicate...
As a Catholic, the speaker is confident that Christianity has not been harmed
This is what they will say all the way to the time when Christians are sent to Concentration camps.
Pelosi is the 21st century Brown shirt.
what Flag is that?
The international “Fisting” Flag?
She wont condem the Poster, but She says she will “pray” for president Bush.
at what altar?
Perhaps then she would get the drift about how insulting this is, and maybe even comment? These liberals of today never understand unless the slur, or insult, or assult on their beliefs and loved ones hits close to home. Then they scream how unfair and how politically incorrect it is and it becomes a national event!
You nailed that one. Couldn’t have been said better!
Pelousy(what I call her LOL) is just another “useful idiot!”
