"This is a psychotic episode in the history of our country."

That's an understatement!

"This is a psychotic episode in the history of our country."

Right next to the eight years we had of Clinton and 'She Who Shall Not Be Named' and their "Co-Presidency." Blech!

Wasn't it recently the anniversary of the Waco, TX nightmare, too?

Liberalism/Socialism/Communism/Marxism IS a mental disease.

I remember what you're talking about, but I can't find it, either after a few searches. Anyone else?

[Diana in Wisconsin]

Found it! You owe me a Corona. With lime. And a little umbrella! :)

Here's a question for y'all - if all the illegals suddenly became legal, wouldn't they have to get all the benefits from employers that we all get? Wouldn't they be able to unionize...so, in the end, who would do all the work Americans won't do for low pay?

FNC is reporting some rallies are being canceled thoughout the country.


Looks like this May 1 communist revival rally is D.O.A.

How does one say "jumped the shark" in Spanish?

[longtermmemmory]

I hope the MSM goes down the entire list and shows how some of the rallies are a big zero.

The one in LA will probably be big because of students using the excuse as a day off.

Perhaps we will have video with audio of the spanish national anthem...

Love how the MSM makes no distinction between immigrants and illegals.

Coloring the News...the gift that keeps on giving.

note reporters name.

Texiera....why is kneejerk hispanic defense of illegals not considered rascist since common language is all they have?

[wardaddy]

The Catholic Church is sucking up.

Same church that has a hard time admitting they have a Queer Problem here in the US.

Sorry....tell me I'm wrong.

Here where I live (the #2 most conservative city in the U.S. in West Texas), the local activists are taking a break from their usual race-baiting ways by telling kids to stay in school and by having a lunch-hour "march". These people should face the basic law of Reaganomics: "No employers = no employees = no employment."

Again, I think you are seeing this with too much of a United States lens as to how the Church Universal views this issue. Again this is a stance that the Church has had for some time. It developed at a very fast rate after WWII when the World for all practical purposes was turned upside down. The Church and its leadership has spoken at times on the challenges here but its not been its primary focus. I suspect that as to Rome, the Church has been much more involved in the Philippine side of the issue.

Nevertheless, I am trying to show the Christian Theology of what the Church is asking us to consider when we have these debates on migration. This issue gets clouded because such a lightning rod as Cardinal Mahoney has somehow become the MSM Catholic spokesman on this. I guess that is because he is in California. However when the Church is speaking its speaking from a Worldwide perspective the same as it does on most other issues.

I like the Old Pope RIP

but I never liked Liberation Theology and saw first hand it's bloody aftermath in the 80s

and this is little different
