Nancy should retire. I’m sure there’s a rest home somewhere that would accommodate her.

She won't. She's only 66.

Feinstein is 80!

Pelosi’s Unmitigated Arrogance

June 16, 2014
Bill Donohue comments on Rep. Nancy Pelosi’s opposition to the March for Marriage later this week:

Rep. Nancy Pelosi does not simply reject the Catholic Church’s teachings on marriage, abortion, and contraception—she is a rabid foe of the Church’s positions. Now she has gone beyond her usual stance by lecturing her archbishop on the folly of marriage, properly understood.

On June 19, San Francisco Archbishop Salvatore Cordileone will speak at a Washington rally organized by the National Organization for Marriage. Pelosi is urging him to cancel his plans because the event is not supported by her homosexual friends. Her unmitigated arrogance was on full display when she invoked a remark by Pope Francis. “If someone is gay and is searching for the Lord and has good will,” the Holy Father said, “then who am I to judge him?”

The pope’s comment had absolutely nothing to do with the institution of marriage; he was addressing homosexual individuals. Moreover, he said nothing that any of his predecessors would have found disagreeable. Here is what he has said about marriage: “The image of God is the married couple: the man and the woman; not only the man, not only the woman, but both of them together.” Someone ought to read that to Pelosi. The pope did not say that the image of God is the married couple of a man and a man, or a woman and a woman. That’s because such unions have been denied by nature, and by nature’s God, of creating a family.

When gays go naked in the streets of San Francisco, and mock Catholicism in patently obscene ways, Pelosi is never offended. What offends her is her archbishop’s public defense of the Church’s teachings on marriage. Nice to know what her moral compass looks like.

The proper response to Nazi from her bishop is that she should go to mass this Sunday and get down on her knees and thank god her communion privileges have not been revoked.

She won't. She's only 66.

Wikipedia says she was born March 26, 1940 (I think the sort of thing Wikipedia is reliable on) -- doesn't that make her 74?

She goes to Mass.

I've always wondered -- does she really or just for photo ops? Of course, she could have found a church like John Kerry's purported parish -- the Paulist Center of Boston -- where they "adapt" the Creed and claim only to be IIRC "a worship community in the Catholic tradition."

Yes, it does.
You're correct. I was wrong.

Didn’t she also lecture her Bishop several years ago stating that the Church did not have a position of when life begins? Sounds like just another one of her heretical statements.

Don't wrap me in your morals... Catholicism!

The truth is I was never a part of you

All through my wild days

My mad existence

I broke my promise

So keep your distance

I broke my promise

So keep your morals!

AB should reply:

“Dear Nancy,

I have a better idea.
I’ll go ahead and participate in the March for Marriage.

But, how about you quit calling yourself “Catholic” since you don’t seem to believe or practice any of the teachings of the Catholic Church.”

Time to publically formally ex-communicate the Beyotch! Let her know and put the Kennedys and Kerry’s on notice that this $hit will not be tolerated anymore!

Will Archbishop Cordileone still be participating in this event? Has he given a response to Pelosi and the others concerning their wrong-headed protests? Hopefully, he will use this as a teaching lesson to them and all those who overtly challenge what they KNOW to be their church's teachings.
