Catholic League president William Donohue remarked as follows:
“The storm is about to hit. For the most part, anti-Catholic bigots and the disaffected dissidents within the Church have been quiet. What they have been waiting for is about to happen: the week between the end of the mourning and the beginning of the conclave is upon us. And that means the Left is ready to explode.
“Consider what we’ve heard already. Amidst the mostly favorable coverage by the media of Pope John Paul II, he has been branded as follows: an authoritarian who seeks to silence dissent; the enemy of homosexuals; a misogynist; a polarizing figure; a man who is out of touch with the modern world; a contributor to death due to AIDS in Africa; responsible for the sexual abuse scandal; and so on.
“And we’ve heard a CBS newsperson blast the pope for ruling the Church with ‘an iron fist’ (this was said between the final four basketball games on Saturday); the Jewish Forward said whatever good he did may be undermined by his ‘battles around the world for sexual repressiveness and against reproductive freedom’; the Calvary Evangelical Lutheran Church in Minneapolis posted a sign on its property saying, ‘ALL WELCOME, CHRIST IS ALIVE, THE POPE IS DEAD’; the president of the J. Paul Getty Trust commented on ‘the spectacle of grotesquerie and human ruin that has lately filled the balcony above St. Peter’s Square’; Christopher Hitchens said he was ‘part of the coverup and obstruction of justice’ attendant to the homosexual scandal; Sister Helen Prejean, who is soft on abortion, took him to task for not changing his mind soon enough on capital punishment (and in doing so managed to misrepresent his pronouncements on the subject—the pope never said it was an intrinsic evil like abortion); and a website called ‘HillaryNow,’ operated by Robert Kunst, said that when the pope went to Israel, he ordered an ambulance to follow him so that in the event he needed a transfusion, he would not have to access ‘Jewish blood.’
“But this is nothing. Many have been waiting for this moment for more than a quarter century. When they lose again, watch out.”
If people can't say something nice, they shouldn't say anything at all....
Will they sell tickets and popcorn? Could be fun to watch.
When you have Bill Clinton dithering on the contributions of John Paul, the Dems trying to abort every Bush apppointee to the courts-EPA-Bolton etc, the Moveone crowd using lies to destroy DeLay, one knows that the Left is on their high horse. The NO Party says NO to the Judeo-Christian worldview on almost every issue nowadays. It is not surprising that their spleen, seething and hatred is now at an all time high. The thing is, will the Right, Christians of all stripes, Talk Radio, the GOp fire back???
Is that the same Bob Kunst who used to be a "leader" in the homosexual movement in Miami?
The History Channel (a joint venture of the "yellow journalism" Hearst Corporation, ABC, Inc., and NBC) did a fair job of that last night in the run up to the funeral.

... John Paul added more insult on his trip by insisting that the ambulance
following him there not have the Jewish Star on it..
Your quote was taken from the above? "John Paul added more insult on his trip by insisting that the ambulance following him there not have the Jewish Star on it, or that those who might give him transfusions, had any Jewish blood."
Jeruselum is not "deep into Palestinian terriroty". Even before the '67 war it was a divided city, half in Jordan, half in Israel. Your basic point is well taken though, as the top of the wailling wall, which the pope visited, is a Mosque that has been the source of violance for those visiting the wall in the past.
I suspected the Pope might be going deep into Palestinian territory while visiting Jerusalem. I certainly did not mean that Jersualem was Palestinian territory!
Florida's veteran gay activist..yes
'nuff said!
O.K., here's how I got there:

Then I clicked on "Read the latest from Bob Kunst"
which took me to:

About halfway down on that page:
FW: "The Other Side of Pope John Paul II"-#134
If you think this is confusing to you, you should see the mess I'm in now! LOL!
The more the leftist trash the pope the more Catholic's will vote against them
From: Bob Kunst
Yeah, he's pretty feisty!
Bob and HillA sense of his perspective: His group is called the "oral majority." Tee-hee.
