USCCB To Host Dissent-Fest in DC This Weekend

In the face of all the revelations of corruption and corrosion within its bowels, the USCCB is hosting its "Catholic Social Gathering" in Washington DC from Feb 7-Feb 10.  It will take place at the Hyatt Regency on Capitol Hill.  The bevy of pro-abortion activists and other dissenters inclue:

1. Father Thomas Reese, SJ, who the Vatican ordered removed from his post as editor of America magazine for publishing articles that questioned the Church on matters such as abortion, contraception, gay lifestyle, etc.
2. Diana Hayes, gay rights activist who also espouses liberation theology, women's ordination
3. Paul Booth, an abortion-rights activist who helped run NOW's Awards Gala.  He is co-chairing a panel discussion at this event.  And who is the other co-chair?  Do you dare to take one wild guess?  Yes indeed it's none other than...
4. John Carr!  (Surprise!)

Hats off to the Pewsitter for this tip.  Here's the link to the USCCB site announcing this schlop.

As most local DC folks know by now, we're slated to get hit with a 2-foot blizzard this weekend.  It is my fond hope that the storm will cause this thing to be the bust that it deserves to be.  As it is, I cannot call a picket, as the roads will surely be impassible.  However, let's pray that this thing fizzles.
