Kind of stretching to find offense here, isn't he? I'm not a fan of Feinstein, but she was obviously talking about fascists and not Catholics.

As an example of religious persecution, she cited Jews who lost their lives in Budapest during the Holocaust, a tragedy, she said, that `occurred in the name of religion," said William Donohue, president of The Catholic League.

Nazism is a religion?

Hungary was officially allied with Nazi Germany. The Hungarian fascists were a SECULAR movement.

That being said, I've always found Donahue to be quite an attention whore. Sorry to be so harsh.

Judge Napolitano got pretty irritated with Feinstein over this remark yesterday as well.

He said it was clearly a swipe at Roberts' Catholicism, and had a tone of bigotry to it.

I disagree!

I want Feinstein and all of the other leftists to continue to condemn Catholicism, other Christian denominations and Judaism as much as possible. That way more of the country will realize what their agenda truly is. The left does not desire the "separation" of church and state, they seek the elimination of Judeo-Christian tradition and they want to replace it with Marxist atheism.

Actually, it was ... sort of. Hitler included some aspects of ancient teutonic paganism in his ideology (that would be the "National" part of "National Socialist"), and was very interested in the occult aspects of archeaology and antiquities. "Raiders of the Lost Ark" was fiction, but its portrayal of Nazis was not entirely fanciful.

Donahue is usually stretching the point to get some publicity.

Isn't Feinstein herself a Catholic? I mean, look at her last name...

Feinstein is an ignorant woman. Plain and simple.

LOL! The ADL and the CL need to merge. No need for oil heat when Donahue or Foxman are in the room, as both provide enough hot air to heat Alaska.

Why bring it up if it had nothing to do with Catholics?

Feinstein bringing up a Holocaust reference was a low and cheap theatrical trick.

If I had to guess, I'd expect that last name to indicate Jewish, rather than Catholic ancestry. Not that it matters a great deal; her voting record is a direct affront to both those religions

Judaism is, and I'm certain that that's what Feinstein meant when she said "religious persecution".
