The Catholic League said Thursday that it will sit out next year’s St. Patrick’s Day Parade in New York because event organizers aren’t letting an anti-abortion group march.

The group, formally known as the Catholic League for Religious and Civil Rights, has been marching for 20 years, said its president, Bill Donohue. …

Thank God for that!

Let me get this straight. The organizers, the Ancient order of Hibernians, a purported Irish Catholic organization is allowing unrepentant sodomites march in the parade reveling in their sin, while denying a Pro-Life group of Catholics, in complete agreement with the Church about Abortion and morality, are denied access to the parade.

I got that right?

[Ray76]

This parade should be shunned.

[TruthShallSetYouFree]

It’s supposed to be Gaelic, not Gay Lick.

Probably vying for prime-time like Macy’s Thanksgiving Day fag fest...

I was going to say roughly the same thing, but you said it better.

[Huskrrrr]

“This is St. Patrick and I dissaprove of this parade.”

“This is St. Patrick and I dissaprove of this parade.”

I predict that within not too many years, this country and this world are going to look very, very different from what we now know. I think we are entering into the End Times.

There is a fixed number of units in the parade. The Catholic group was bumped for the Gay group and the LBGT wants even more spots. That means even more traditional groups will likely get bumped to placate them.They want to take over this parade!

[livius]

Good for them!

[greene66]

Sounds like it.

Just further evidence of my opinion that America has basically become the mirror-opposite of everything it once was and once stood for. All things once considered good and virtuous are condemned and maligned, while all things once considered vile and debased are praised and celebrated.

What a joke,Homo’s can march but Pro-Lifers can’t.This Parade Suckeths.Tell them to come to Philly.

[utahagen]

The Ancient Order of Hibernians hasn't run the parade for 20 years. The parade is now run by some vaguely titled Parade Committee which makes no claim to be religious in any way.

[oldsicilian]

You’ve got that right.

[Gay State Conservative]

Good decision.

[o-n-money]

We are now Bazaaro world on steroids.

[Gay State Conservative]

I got that right?

CINO's.They're everywhere.

[Olog-hai]

Time to make the Ancient Order of Hibernians the Extinct Order of Hibernians?
