Tea Party targets catholics

Catholic Friends:

The attached article by Father Sirico is worth reading if you think all Catholic leaders have gone mad:

QUOTE: "Here's the question Catholics need to ask themselves: Are the unions I support of the same type that are idealized in Catholic social teaching? Or have they changed to the point where they are unions in name only but actually just political machines for coercing workers and extracting money through the political process?"

Only one bishop (Bishop Morlino) has touched on this issue. The rest seem to be stuck in a time warp.

The whole site is dedicated to destroying the notion of social justice which has permeated the church for years.

It also has some kind of beef with community organizers. 

C.U.T.  NOTE:
This is not JUST a Catholic Problem!
All of Wisconsin's Churches need to be protected from Chicago-Style Community Organizers!

How is Walid Shoebat still around? Are there any anti-fraud laws in Israel?

Targeting the Catholic demo is suicide. As a former Catholic, I know that we would sit around hating ourselves, waiting for god to give us something we were allowed to hate more than ourselves... Namely something providing the "help! I'm being oppressed!" Excuse to violently lash out.

Believe you me, the IRA would be happy to divert what they were going to unleash on the royals to the states, If need be.

I dunno about lashing out (also an ex-Catholic...that makes like six or seven of us that I can think of), but yeah, suicide. (Older) Catholics kind of have a persecution complex from what I've observed and they'll latch on to this and scream and scream and Tea Baggers will loose any and all Catholic votes, if it gets big enough.

The Tea Party seems intent on marginalizing itself out of existence, and I'm delighted to watch them do it.

I admit I'm a little bit too drunk to know what's happening here, but I'l chime in in the hopes that I do understand.

As a former Catholic living in Boston, where a lot of Catholics and former Catholics live, most of us would never support the Tea Party.

It's odd. It's very odd. Catholicism is very conservative, but, we (I say we because even us former Catholics never shake it completely) are blue blue blue. Blue collar, blue voting, unless of course, it happens to be a Catholic who... no, I lost that thought completely. Here in Massachusetts, if you are Catholic, chances are you are Democrat. If you are Republican, chances are you are both an aberration and also socially liberal but fiscally conservative. There is a reason that in a prez general election MA is always blue. Hell, one election we were the only blue state out of 50.

I love how half backed this whole effort is. They think that if they put a Catholic spin on their Jesus^TM=Libretarianism rationalization it will work.

Deleted whole fucking thought on grounds of being very drunk former Catholic who has to go on TV for his band tomorrow. Tghere was more to that, but again, very drunk. Going to piss, smoke and pass out.

First of all
How the fuck can the Democrats be so fucking stupid that they don't jump on this opportunity?

More than 6-in-10 (62%) Americans believe that one of the biggest problems in this country is that more and more wealth is held by just a few people. About 1-in-4 (24%) say that this is not that big a problem.

    * Young people (age 18 - 34) are significantly more likely than older Americans (age 65+) to believe that one of the biggest problems in the country is that more and more of the wealth is held by just a few people (71% to 56%).
    * Among white evangelical Protestants, 55% say that one of the biggest problems in the country is that more and more of the wealth is held by just a few people compared to three-quarters (75%) of Americans with no religious affiliation. Nearly one-third (32%) of white evangelical Protestants say that this is not that big a problem.
    * Three-quarters of Democrats and even a plurality (47%) of Republicans say that one of the biggest problems in the country is that more and more of the wealth is held by just a few people.  Those identifying with the Tea Party are evenly divided on this question (41% not that big a problem, 40% one of the biggest problems).
