Re - religious freedom issue
Thngs are pretty hot around central Illinois —including the weather. We had a new pastor come in about a month ago. His first Homily after the first week he basically introduced himself was on the topic of religious freedom and all that’s been going on lately. His final punchline was — “Anybody who votes in this next election without educating themselves on the issues is an idiot”.
The bishop here has made the national news because he’s minced no words in his opposition to the mandates in Obamacare. He’s on the board at Notre Dame, and several of their communist faculty have demanded his removal.
The best part of all this is the letters to the editor in the newspaper. Every morning I can’t wait to read the comments from the morons who live around here - including some of them Catholics. You just can’t make this stuff up.
Unfortunately, 99 of 102 Counties will vote to get rid of this loser, but the Chicago area and Metro St. Louis will put him over the top in Illinois by a wide margin. Afterall - they can’t give up their freebees.
Wow, good point about the majority of Illinois voting against OBama but the big urban areas wipe out the sane ones.
The Wilmington Bishop has been sending out letters, issuing press releases, in short there’s a push to get the Catholics around here thinking.
Some audience members booed at the mention of....TADA....who? JOE BIDEN! Remembering please he’s OUR guy, going on TV every Ash Wednesday to ostentatiously show his ashes, favoring abortion....and some shouted out about Nancy Pelosi.
It was a great night, Father Sam’s attack on me notwithstanding.
