The Jesuits Produce A Great Political Candidate

by Deal W. Hudson

11/19/08

Joseph Cao is a Catholic lawyer and former Jesuit scholastic from New Orleans. He is running as a Republican for the Congressional 2nd district seat in Louisiana presently held by Rep. William Jefferson (D-LA), who is best known for the $90,000 found in his freezer. The election will be held December 6. Few candidates for public office are as forthright as Cao when asked about their position on abortion. “I am very anti-abortion,” he told me without hesitation. Cao would like to overturn Roe, but in the meantime, “We have to find a way to defeat Roe without having to overturn it.”

His solid pro-life credentials are attested to by the endorsement of the FRC Action PAC, among others. At age 41, Cao has been married for seven years to Hieu, also called “Kate,” and has two children, Sophia 5 and Betsy 4. Kate is a pharmacist who works to “pay the bills while I play politician,” Joseph told me. They met at a Marian festival at Our Lady La Vang Parish, a Vietnamese Catholic congregation in New Orleans. Cao was born in Vietnam but immigrated to the United States at age 8 with his older sister and younger brother. The Communists had jailed his father after the fall of Saigon in 1975, and Joseph was raised by an uncle in Houston where he attended middle and high school and was eventually reunited with his parents. Joseph attended Baylor University in pre-med, where he met a Catholic chaplain who introduced him to the Society of Jesus.

“My guess is that he loses to the next black Democrat nominated in 2010.”

Lets give thanks and learn from each miracle as it is given to us.

If only we could have ten refugees from Communism for every illiterate, benighted socialist wannabe drone....

If only!! In fact, if we could get a mere 3 or 4 refugees from communist nations for every 10 that we get from elsewhere, we'd be ahead of the game. I'd almost be for open borders if we could maintain a 3:10 ratio of commi-haters to socialist slugs. Three refugees from 'Nam are worth 100 slugs from elsewhere.

T’was Sen. TED KENNEDY who led a post-WATERGATE Democrat Congress into cutting off all U.S. Funding for the Free South Vietnamese to fight for their own Freedom with. Just as the Communist Soviet Union had given $6 Billion in Military Aid to the invading Communist North Vietnamese. Including over 600 Soviet Tanks and 1,000’s of mobile Artillery pieces to send South.

And then Sen. TED KENNEDY led that same post-WATERGATE Democrat Congress into cutting off all U.S. Humanitarian Aid to the Free South, as in Medical supplies, to treat their hordes of resultant Military & Civilian wounded with.

And from the very start of the Vietnam War in 1965, Sen. TED KENNEDY always knew better:

(See 5th Photo down of Sen. TED KENNEDY touring a then Free South Veitnam’s Central Highlands viewing in person precisely what the Vietnam War was really all about from the very start)

Another involved was Rep. Murtha who was part of the tour of Vietnam just before the vote to cut off funding.
Great book explaining the politics - “The Palace File”
