The Havoc of Puny Men...
I posted this on an Eschaton comment board last night. Thought I'd repost it here today.0 commentsLord, Lord, Lord...
I was raised a devout Catholic; was a long-time unmolested altar boy; went to Catholic schools from k to 1st year of college; once seriously planned to attend the seminary (until puberty struck!); played CYO basketball; went to CYO dances; hung out at the local K of C hall with my dad and his pals. Unfortunately, I've also been forced to listen to the drooling rantings of this fool for a couple of years now and been forced to hear him described as "a Catholic," simply because I'm also a News junkie.
Ladies and gentlemen, please remember at all times:
1) The Catholic League is not a Catholic league; it is a hate group; like the Moonies or the KKK; but a very small one. Their aim is not discourse, it's Total Control--by all six of their members, if they have that many. Has any news organization done the mundane reporting part of their job, and checked? Is there any other member of this supposed "group" besides [Bill] Donohue, all by his lonesome? Which cable news operation or media conglomerate, to date, has asked Donohue to provide a copy of his membership rolls to establish authenticity?
2) Donohue is to Catholicism as
Spam is to finely marbled filet mignon.
3) Fire the TV producer who first had the brilliant idea that putting him on the air meant they were doing their job competently.
Please, no more air time for this whack job, and spend no more computer bytes angsting over anything this moron says.
I don't have a dog in the '08 race as of yet; I'm certainly not a Barak Obama supporter yet; but his approach of freezing out fascist whacks who have media access has definitely gotten my attention. Bravo, sir!
[John] Edwards: take a lesson here. Your very first reaction should have been to crush this little weasel utterly. Or dismiss him totally at the outset. You allowed this one puny individual to have huge sway over the campaign you've lovingly spent years trying to build. Not wise form, sir. How do we think you'd go nose-to-nose with belligerent world leaders who might mean us harm, if you can't handle a pipsqueak like Donohue?
