Another pro-abortion "Catholic" who will be buried with craven, corrupt priests slobbering all over the rich and powerful who will trudge to his funeral.

Known for authoring the amendments that barred U.S. aid to the Contras in Nicaragua in the 1980s, Boland chaired the House Intelligence Committee from 1977 to 1985. Yes, he helped the Nicaraguan people alright. I am pretty sure he was a supporter of Daniel Ortega. I was not.

"He took the New Deal values of Roosevelt..."
...and helped turn this country into pacifier-sucking collection of liberal blood-suckers. No disrespect intended, but how soon after the body cools can we fight for a conservative replacement?
To: Tony in Hawaii
I hope is was aware that Daniel Ortega lost the election before he died.

I just realized that Boland died on the same day that Nicaragua declares Bolanos, an anti-Sandinista candidate, the winner of the elections - and Bolanos beat Ortega!
Maybe he died of a broken heart.

The so-called Boland amendments only applied to US Govt. direct funding. He (Boland) really was a scumbag, though.

then why did the Demon Cats raise such crap over North and Reagan doing what they did?The lefties in Congress were outsmarted by Reagan. The Boland Amendment was written to prevent intelligence agencies of the government from supporting the Contras. The NSC is not an intelligence agency.

The democrats were rooting for the communists and thought they had all the bases covered for helping them. They went squirrelly when they found out that they were not as brilliant as they thought.
Chris Dodd is next on my list; then Jim Wright [Dear Comandante].

Gosh. Bush's poll numbers are in the stratosphere, Ortega was soundly defeated, and the Red Sox haven't won the World Series since 1918.
Yep, he died a miserable old man.

Tony...I don't know what you are thinking, or what you purpose was in posting this, but I have to say the nasty comments it has led too are really unpleasant. For all that I strongly disagree with almost all of Boland's positions I see no reason to dance with glee on his grave. Seems cheap somehow.

PAHThis man did everything he could to destoy constitutional government in this country and install Socialism, and we should be respectful! I suppose that it would be better to lie about the dead.
