Read the numbers. They're mostly pretty close. So which way do you want them to swing?

I'd hope after the 2016 campaign and the comments from shillary about both Roman Catholics and Christians, the RC vote would go to the gop candidate.

I ask because the message I get from almost every post of yours is "Catholics get out ... you're not wanted here".

You've not heard me say for any Roman Catholic to get out...that you're not wanted here.

I rather enjoy the debates we have.

I have seen a couple Roman Catholics cry to the owner of this board about non-Roman Catholics however so much so that some don't post any longer.

I would imagine that most RCs that post on this board are politically conservative.

I did not know that priests lost their political voice and opinions when they joined the priesthood. The progressives have no problem going to African American churches and get endorsed by those reverends and bishops. No firestorm for those campaign activities.

I wonder if the commie-progressive pope is going to punish these priests.

Catholic priests are not good-will ambassadors promoting a point of view. They are private citizens. They may wear whatever they like in public! Most choose the standard black suit with collar.

[Marchmain]

Good. Fyi pope will not have any involvement, but the bishop will express his displeasure by showing the peevish, small-minded annoyance typical of left-wingers.

There were a couple of young priests in the row in front of us in the invited-guest ticketed section of Trump’s Inauguration.

Meanwhile you don’t say a damned thing about that Pfleger lunatic in Chicago. Get back to me when you rein him in.

The always-bitching Left can go to Hell.

[Buckeye McFrog]

Priests are apparently only allowed to have First Amendment rights if they are flaming Liberal moonbats.
