Pelosi accuses Catholics of having 'this conscience thing'
American Thinker ^ | November 18, 2011 | William Tate

Posted on 11/18/2011 11:23:47 AM PST by jazusamo

After having some of her behind the scenes shenanigans exposed, Nancy Pelosi has turned to her friends in the MSM to help her with damage control. The effect is something akin to watching what scrambles out after you overturn a large rock.

Pelosi sought to defend herself from allegations that she and her husband made millions from insider trading in what the Washington Post calls a wide ranging interview ...

~snip~

"I'm a devout Catholic and I honor my faith and love it . . . but they have this conscience thing." (Emphasis added.)

This conscience thing? As in, they have one?

And she called Cain clueless?

“Princess Nan really is clueless”

I disagree. It's not a matter of Nancy being “clueless”, but rather that she has no “conscience” and thus that is the reason for her being a Demoncrat, as well as being able to vote for unconscionable legislation like Obamacare, and supporting OWS.

She's a conscienceless liberal, asshat, douchebag.

God gave us a conscience in order for us to decide “right” from “wrong”. Yet, because Nancy and her fellow liberals discarded their conscience (and souls) for the cause of progressivism, she expects the rest of us to do the same.

If there is a hell, I expect Nancy to receive admittance to the VIP room when she arrives there.

Maybe she lights candles in church, or has a crucifix or a picture of the Sacred heart in her house, or routinely attends family baptisms. Or maybe not,

Both of those things are your right and I would be the last one to criticize either.

But, you are not trying to pass yourself off as a "devout Catholic". I still consider myself Catholic, but I disagree with some of the church's stances, so I would never try to pass myself off as "devout".

There are people who don’t have the “conscience thing”. We call them sociopaths.

Do a google on “lieberman devout” and you will see that your premise is quite incorrect. Also try “devout baptist”, “devout episcopalean” (Robert E. Lee is so described on one site), “devout jew” or even “devout muslim”.

“Conscience thing” is a reference to the Baltimore diocese teaching in the 50’s that devout Catholics practice the sacraments. Ethics and Biblicism are not part of this teaching. She believes herself justified in her faith just as Mafiosa are justified as devout Catholics. They follow the sacraments and ignore the teachings.

If you're for abortion you're a "devout" Catholic, If you're an ex-nun lesbian Gaia-devotee, you're "a staunch, lifelong" Catholic, and they'll run a picture of you from 1957 in your First Communion dress.

From the Media Handbook for Covering Catholics:

Rule #1: "The only good Catholic is a bad Catholic."

She definitely is not a “devote” Catholic. She’s not Catholic at all. She doesn’t know the first thing about the Catholic religion and beliefs. She has never seen an abortion she didn’t like. She really is clueless. Too bad she doesn’t have an informed moral conscience. The reason she continues to get reelected is because she represents kooks and moral anemics, who find her their cup of tea.

Being “devout” would seem to imply having a conscience but I guess not to San Fran Nan.

Here's a nice place for Nancy, conveniently located just 20 minutes to her winery up Rte. 29. She needs to report there now.
