That’s the “select subset” I’m talking about.

Colofornian, you need to step back and look at your posts. You’re flailing at the air.

It’s about a LOT more than spending and taxes. Ryan is a great choice!

Colofornian, you need to step back and look at your posts. You’re flailing at the air.

(Which is why Errant agreed with me in post#60; and Longbow, who doesn't usually agree with me, agreed me in post #50)

Please proceed -- if you're consistent in any way, that is -- to tell them they're "flailing at the air" as well.

Sangria martyria sperma ecclesia

Of course!

As I posted on another forum, "we're all catholics now".

, Stretch Pelosi, and Horseface Kerry, are not Catholics. At best they might be cafeteria catholics, or Catholics in name only.

Which is why we should fear rather than cheer a "Catholic vs. Catholic" VP debade...can you not see that this is going to be come a wedge, if not an attempt at schism against the true Magisterium?

Your cell or mine? ;oP

Incidentally, I don't know Latin, but I think the tagline is a better rendition of our --- what do you want to call it --- slogan, motto, or epitaph. The grammar may still be a little dicey.

JP II cited it as follows:
Sanguinis martyrum, semen christianorum
http://www.vatican.va/jubilee_2000/magazine/documents/ju_mag_01031997_p-56_en.html

That said, infalibility doesn’t extend to grammar. The omitting the est is no problem, but the genitive plural still looks a bit dicey to me. My search also came up with alternative spellings of the genitive. I have four co-workers with better latin, so if no one resolves it, freep-mail me and I’ll ask around work.

I think if catholics were going to vote according to the dictates of the values of their faith you would not have 60% of Hispanics voting for democrats.

Indeed they will attack Paul Ryan’s budget just as they did before. They will claim he aims to throw grandma off the cliff just as before. Only this time they will tie that to Mitt as well.

I’m not entirely sure why Mitt wants to take on this during an already tough election. Figuring out the sacrificial nessary to balance a budget is not an election year bouns. I suppose there is a good reason no member of congress has ever made a good president.

Paul Ryan can be expected to bring to this campaign and his job the same Controversy he has help bring to the house.
