  • President Irked by Criticism from Catholic Bishops

    A Semi-News/Semi-Satire from AzConservative ^ | 28 March 2009 | John Semmens
    The latest round of criticism aimed at his pro-abortion nominee for Secretary of Health and Human Services, Governor Kathleen Sebelius (D-Kansas), shows signs of getting under President Obama’s skin. “The last thing we need is priests meddling in politics,” Obama is reported to have groused by a source wishing to remain anonymous. “Haven’t they heard of ‘separation of church and state?’” The President is said to be especially puzzled by the declaration that Catholic politicians who support abortion be denied Holy Communion. “Why can’t they accept an honest difference of opinion?” Obama asked. “And even if the priests think it’s...

    Hennesy's view ^ | Bill Hennessy
    On Friday, US Premier Barack Hussein Obama tipped his hand on his plans of banning dissent.   He told reporters that Republicans must “stop listening to Rush Limbaugh.” Were Obama an ordinary politician, we’d take this comment as a harmless, oral wish.  Limbaugh is an effective advocate for conservatism, limited government, lower taxes, freedom, and peace-through-strength—all things Obama hates.  Obama’s not a typical politician in the American sense; he’s a communist.  He’s a totalitarian. During the election of 2008, Obama sent thugs to threaten, cajole, and intimidate dissidents of his campaign.  They attacked radio stations in Chicago and other cities.  They...

    A very dear friend of mine, an evangelical Protestant minister who is a Champion of Life, commented to me upon reading it, “Boy, does this Pope know how to Pope!” In this instance, my reaction to Bishop Joseph Martino’s continued defense of the truth in his Diocese was “Boy does this Bishop know how to Bishop!” And further, how desperately we all need him - and others like him - as we walk through the smoke of what Joseph Cardinal Ratzinger, right before he was elected to the Chair of Peter, prophetically called “the dictatorship of relativism.” The latest news...

    Right In A Left World ^ | March 6, 2009 | Lew Waters
    It seems the thin-skinned messiah occupying the Oval Office doesn’t like it much when his word is not instantly accepted as gospel. In spite of having his surrogates attack opponents unmercifully during his quest for the supreme power, words spoken against him bring throngs of thugs to do the dirty work he tries to distance himself from. We saw a taste of this during the campaign when “Joe the Plumber” asked the anointed one about his small business tax plans. The attack machine went into high gear digging for dirt on Samuel Wurzelbacher in confidential records databases. Of course, the...

    The president-designate's gaze passed swiftly over the faces of the cameramen. All were doing their best to retain a professional demeanor. None were entirely successful. The overwhelming majority of them, like the majority of their brethren in journalism, had supported the deposed administration. Few had any sympathy for the views of those who were to replace it. Yet each of them had volunteered for his assignment, knowing full well what had come to pass. "I wish it could have been otherwise, but the late president gave us no choice. He had decided to place himself and his associates above the...

    President Obama is moving quickly to implement his liberal, “post-American” agenda. Right now, Obama and the Pelosi-Reid Congress are using the economic crisis to push massive and unprecedented new government spending that will rapidly move America to the socialist Left. Who can stop the Obama agenda? Only an unprecedented idea-based Resistance from freedom-loving citizens can prevent the full implementation of Obama’s march to the Left. That’s why Grassfire.org is seeking to identify and mobilize grassroots citizens who will Join The Resistance— an alliance of patriotic, resilient and determined conservatives who will not forsake their principles.

    Limbaugh is a major thorn in the side of the Left. They need to remove him, because his criticisms serve to slow their advance and might even help to stop them in their tracks. That’s why I’m for Limbaugh and I too hope Obama fails at every turn in his efforts to expand the powers of government.

    This is really too . . . rich. Frank of-the-same-name accusing Republicans who oppose "President" Pelosi’s bloated stimulus bill of being unpatriotic. Here’s how Rich put it in his column of this morning [emphasis added]: "The crisis is at least as grave as the one that confronted us — and, for a time, united us — after 9/11. Which is why the antics among Republicans on Capitol Hill seem so surreal. These are the same politicians who only yesterday smeared the patriotism of any dissenters from Bush’s “war on terror.” Where is their own patriotism now that economic terror is...

    Will it become a crime to criticize "The Messiah"? After observing the collective psychosis of the MSM the past few days (especially my local rag, the Ventura County Star)which has equated the inauguration of Obama with the immaculate conception, I am wondering if dissent of the government and, especially, Obama will now put me on a "Suspect List" and make me subject to questioning by the authorities and, perhaps, subsequent arrest. I used to write letters to the opinion section of The Star taking a pro-conservative line. But now, after viewing editions of The Star over the past few days...

    Wolrd Net Daily ^ | 01/01/09 | Bob Unruh
    By Bob Unruh © 2009 WorldNetDaily Politically active Barack Obama supporters in Michigan have tried to silence criticism of the president-elect on a talk program at a community radio station by cutting its air time, the program host says. Officials with radio station WRHC told WND the dispute involved talk show host Martin Dzuris' coverage of local issues as well as national issues. But Dzuris explained in a lengthy interview with WND he attended at least one meeting where radio station officials discussed specifically how to reduce Dzuris' criticism of Obama, which has linked Obama's statements taken directly from his...

    Any American who has paid even shallow attention to the news this millennium has witnessed top Democrats spending much of the Bush presidency propagating the myth that Republicans have been in the business of labeling anti-war Democrats as “unpatriotic.” Of course, many of these Americans also realize that no such labels were ever actually used by President Bush or other high-level Republicans against the Democrats. (It was, of course, Democratic Senator Bob Graham who labeled Bush’s policies as “anti-patriotic at the core.”) Regardless, due to a relentless propaganda campaign by the left and its friends in the media, the myth...

    However, all that changed on August 9th when Fr. Bourgeois chose to become a “concelebrant” and homilist at the attempted ordination to the priesthood of Janice Sevre-Duszynska. The attempted “ordination” occurred at the Unitarian Universalist Church of Lexington, Ky. Now, Fr. Bourgeois has decided to engage in a new crusade, one which involves public and direct defiance of the Holy See and a repudiation of the unbroken teaching of the Magisterium of the Catholic Church concerning sacred ordination. According to a letter which Fr. Bourgeois released to the Press, he has received a letter from the Congregation for the Doctrine...

    On paper, my wife and I are poor. How poor? In 2005 we made $4,303.84 combined; in 2004 we made half that. We’re in such a low tax bracket that I have trouble convincing the government of our tax return’s accuracy; they simply can’t believe Americans can live on that kind of money. Yet in many ways, we’re better off than a Wall Street banker: We’ve saved enough money to buy land without a mortgage, we have no credit cards or monthly bills, I work 20 flexible hours a week from home, and my daughter has two stay-at-home parents. Simply...

AP-Obama: "Barack Obama declared today that he is the only candidate who can bring true change in Washington, hoping to persuade Iowa voters to give him the first victory in the Democrat presidential race. Making his case against Hillary Clinton without naming her," and this is the money part of the story, Obama said, "The real gamble in this election is playing the same Washington game with the same Washington players and expecting a different result."
