I'm glad I didn't die...and that I survived to this day, when more people in my life decry you than support you for wanting to prevent my marriage in the name of some cold, removed Church and God

One small question: Why has every single state, including California, that has put he choice up to the people, voted against Gay marriage?

If what she is saying is correct why aren't we seeing this passed by the electorateisntead of my legislators?

Why is it not ever pointed out that today’s progressiver movement holds still the same stance that they did back in the days when they revived and championed the KKK? The KKK was heavily anti-Catholic back in the days when the progressive movement championed them. Hugo Black who institutionalized ‘Separation of Church and State’ was a progressive (appointed by progressive icon FDR) and also a KKK lawyer.

The media loved trying to tar the TEA party with the tag of racism but fail to point out that the progressive movement is still targeting the same groups that it did back when it championed the KKK. The KKK was anti-Catholic and anti-Traditional values and todays progressive democrat is no different today.

How is it that we are being lectured by a abunch of progressive KKK democrats on how to redefine civil rights? Now they want to claim that being black is equal to being a homosexual? The progressive movement is still up to their same old games.

**’Cruel, Untrue’ Catholic Church**

And what about all the martyrs in
Rome
England
Vietnam
China
Mexico
France
Poland
Rwanda
current Middle East
and my list of countries could go on and on — even martyrs here in the United States.

Catholics didn’t kill these people — others did — sometimes — actually many times — it was government who did this.

Wouldn't it have been grand if ESPN stuck to sports, and not politics?

Now they are destined to die.

Rich to ESPN: Stop encouraging your staffers to be boring, sanctimonious leftist twits.

The cruelest thing the Catholic Church did was to let the homosexuals infiltrate the priesthood.

Why does a sports network give a platform to a feminine crackpot, who wants to bash a legitimate sports hero, simply because he disparages that, which under any light, is a pure oxymoron--a self-contradiction in the use of language. (People of the same sex are physically incapable of consummating a marriage, if you understand what marriage--as it has always been understood--means.)

The Leftists in the ESPN management need some form of come-upance. This sort of drivel does not take anything away from the boxer being targeted, of course, but why should legitimate sports fans, seeking to follow their favorite sports, be subjected to this sort of silly annoyance?

If I was a stockholder in Disney (the parent company), I would make an issue of this.

"I realized the Church was what I'd have to feint and duck; the Church's cruel, untrue dictates about me...."

Look, an organization doesn't like you and thinks your behavior is wrong and sinful. So what? The Democrats treat me the same way for owning a small business. :)

I didn't try to change the Democrats, I just joined another group.

From the article:

Laurel Fantauzzo was a 2011 Fulbright Scholar to the Philippines. She's currently an Arts Fellow at the University of Iowa Master of Fine Arts in Nonfiction program. Ladies, she's also currently single.

I know it's lunchtime EST, but b-a-quadruple r-f. That's barrrrf..

...so the folks at ESPN would rather embrace queers than Catholics? Wow.

I “carry” the constitution, a heavy book and a cross; go ahead and turn away from me. See how much I am harmed by your actions. Others like me will turn away from you and your employer. Let’s see how that works out for you.

By the way, you freaking hypocrite, you wouldn’t like it if others told you how to live and what to say. But you are doing that to others with impunity.

she's a "filipina"

googling found this:

Laurel Fantauzzo currently lives in Quezon City, Philippines. She feels equally at home in Brooklyn, NY and Iowa City, IA. Her Tagalog is slowly improving.

she lives in Quezon City, but doesn't speak Tagalog?

Maybe because she was born and raised in Ventura County California.

link.

Laurel Fantauzzo was raised in Ventura County, California and graduated from La Reina, a private Catholic high school for girls. In addition to writing fiction, she has written for a sketch comedy troupe, worked as a freelance journalist in New York City and the Philippines, and served as assistant editor for Alfred Hitchcock's Mystery Magazine. She worked for two years as a restaurant reviewer for New York Magazine online, and has contributed to AfterEllen and Go Magazine, among other publications. She also founded the popular We Are Not the Enemy photo blog in response to California’s Proposition 8. Currently she is at work on a young adult novel and a collection of comedic essays. Laurel attended the University of California, Santa Cruz and Sarah Lawrence College for her undergraduate work. She was awarded an Iowa Arts Fellowship in 2010 and will pursue an MFA in nonfiction at the University of Iowa.

Translation: She's Californian, with an Italian name who probably has a Filipina ancestor and is promoting hate speech because she is a professional lesbian.

AH but I found why she is now living in Quezon city: She is doing a hit job on Jolibee (the local McDonalds) and is having her research paid for by a "Fullbright scholarship".link

can any of you guys put a comment on newsbusters and tell them she was brought up in California and can’t even speak Tagalog?

It hasn’t hit the Philippine papers yet, but I agree with Michelle Malkin: This outcry against Pacquiao is so fast and so furious it looks like it was coordinated and was probably already planned before Pacquiao came to the US.

I’m not sure if it is to diss the Philippines for many folks here not wanting to legalize abortion in the up coming RH Bill (which Pacquiao is backing the bishops, not the president here), or if it is to try to “educate” Pacquiao what will happen if he runs for president in the future and crosses his orders from the US and the NWO types.

(Pacquiao is a Senator and I suspect if he runs later for president, he will win).

the writer may be eligible for dual citizenship if her mother is a filipina, so I guess you could call her a Filipina, but if she can’t even speak the language, and was brought up in California, then I say she knows little or nothing about the Philippines.

Perhaps it’s time ESPN had some conservative competition.
