Solicitor General Elena Kagan has called for Socialists to unite...(Catholic Caucus)

"We are living in the days of the Apocalypse - the last days of our era...The two great forces of the Mystical Body of Christ and the Mystical Body of Antichrist are beginning to draw up the battle lines for the catastrophic contest." - Archbishop Fulton John Sheen.

White House aides expect President Obama to select Solicitor General Elena Kagan for the Supreme Court. See here. Ms. Kagan, while attending Princeton University as an undergraduate, entitled her senior thesis "To the Final Conflict: Socialism in New York City, 1900-1933." In her thesis, Ms. Kagan wrote, "In our times [this was 30 years ago], a coherent socialist movement is nowhere to be found in the United States. Americans are more likely to speak of a golden past than of a golden future, of Capitalism's glories than of socialism's greatness. Conformity overrides dissent; the desire to conserve has overwhelmed the urge to alter. Such a state of affairs cries out for explanation. Why, in a society by no means perfect, has a radical party never attained the status of a major political force? Why, in particular, did the socialist movement never become an alternative to the nation's established parties?" (p. 127).

And then Ms. Kagan issues her call to action, her call for Socialists to unite in order to defeat "the entrenched foe." She writes, "Through its own internal feuding..the SP [Socialist Party] exhausted itself forever and further reduced labor radicalism in New York to the position of marginality and insignificance from which it has never recovered. The story is a sad but also a chastening one for those who, more than half a century after socialism's decline, still wish to change America. Radicals have often succumbed to the devastating bane of sectarianism; it is easier, after all, to fight one's fellows than it is to battle an entrenched and powerful foe. Yet if the history of Local New York shows anything, it is that American radicals cannot afford to become their own worst enemies. In unity lies their only hope." (pp. 129-130).

And who is this "entrenched foe"? Primarily the Church. What Ms. Kagan refers to as the "final conflict," Pope John Paul II called the "final confrontation." Just two years before he was elected to the papacy, Karol Cardinal Wojtyla visited the United States. This was 1976. In his farewell speech, Cardinal Wojtyla said:


"We are now standing in the face of the greatest historical confrontation humanity has gone through. I do not think the wide circle of the American society or the wide circles of the Christian community realize this fully. We are now facing the final confrontation between the Church and the anti-Church, of the Gospel versus the anti-Gospel. This confrontation lies within the plans of divine providence; it is a trial which the whole Church, and the Polish Church in particular, must take up. It is a trial not only of our nation and the Church, but in a sense, it is a test of 2,000 years of culture and Christian civilization with all its consequences for human dignity, individual rights, human rights and the rights of nations."


In short, two camps are aligning for a final conflict, a final confrontation: the Mystical Body of Christ and the Mystical Body of Antichrist. The Democratic Party has been radicalized and is now advancing Socialism. It is merely a tool of a Satanic worldwide movement to neutralize the Catholic Church and to prepare the way for the Man of Sin.

Well, color me shocked!! Obama picking a socialist to the SCOTUS. The SCOTUS is there to uphold the constitution, the constitution is completely anti-socialist in it’s nature.

Have we lost already?

[screaminsunshine]

Another communist on the court. We need a con con to outlaw communism.

[RexBeach]

This is insipid. Even as a dumb college student(as I once was) she should be able to figure out why socialists in America never became a major movement or party. That’s because people want to make $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ in America.

How on earth did she think that Princeton got its money? Because it floated down out of the sky?

Pinhead.

[PSYCHO-FREEP]

This one will make Ginsberg look like Mother Theresa

[NoKoolAidforMe]

When it comes to appointing unattractive, butchy women to prominent posts, 0bama does a great job.

[GeronL]

I bet this will not come up at the hearings and the GOP will cave in an instant.

Patton Oswalt in drag for SCOTUS?

“Have we lost already?”

Yes, I say America is lost.
Welcome to the USSA.

Just imagine the damage that will be inflicted
while the Commie is in office.

[Carley]

All this fodder for Beck. Great gift!

[ZULU]

This harridan harolt is no more qualified for the SCOTUS than Harriet Meirs and Meirs was probably a better person.

She exemplifies the kind of vicious iconoclast that S.O.B. in the Oval Office is.

That woman needs to go on a diet. she looks like and overweight pig. She needs to learn to push herself away from the table. Maybe the Obozo Administration needs to spend more time seeking out a conservative, opps I forgot Obozo is nothing but a socialist. A socialist picking a socialist for a supreme court judge. Lets see lets change America, without firing a shot, America moves more and more towards socialism. The problem with socialism - when your run out of other peoples money where do you go - IMF, and the America people fund this at 17%. more American taxpayer money to bailout Greece.

[MNJohnnie]

Seems Kagan pisses off everyone. The Progressives are all complaining she is not Leftist enough.

It is O’s Harriet Meyers moment

Solicitor General Elena Kagan has called for Socialists to unite

This evil woman got her wish: America's socialists united behind Obama and Pelosi.

[The Sons of Liberty]

I predict that the GOP will only put up token resistance to her confirmation.

[Sudetenland]

Show me the original thesis, not someone with an agenda's interpretation of it.

He's probably right in what he has gleened from her writing; she certainly appears to fit the part of a ruling pig, but an article like this making such claims really needs to link to the work from which he is citing examples.

Good find if true, but poor journalism.

[GonzoII]

Great find, Mark!

[GonzoII]

Ping.

[Ballygrl]

Please tell me this woman cannot possibly get confirmed?

[NeoCaveman]

Please tell me this woman cannot possibly get confirmed?

Sorry. The Senate confirmed her to be Solicitor General last year so she's probably a slam dunk.
