Mainstream Catholic Media - Their Sinful Disregard For The Truth

Last year Greta Van Suserten interviewed Sarah Palin.  Both agreed that the mainstream media had become partners of the Obamanistas by covering up their dangerous derelictions of duty.  I'll post the video and below that, I have some words for the Catholic mainstream media.



What these ladies said goes double for the Catholic mainstream media.  By that, I mean the Catholic News Service (arm of the USCCB), all the diocesan media outlets (our own Catholic Standard leads the pack in mediocrity).  I regret that I must add EWTN to that group; were Mother Angelica of decent health, I'm sure EWTN would never have devolved into a "church of nice" brown-nosing outfit.

I started this blog because the Catholic Standard would not address real issues facing Catholics.  Most notably at the time, they wouldn't address the terrible disobedience to Canon 915 that was demonstrated by Cardinal McCarrick, then Archbishop of Washington.  Until that time, the Standard at least had a "letters to the editor" section.  At that time, the section was permanently discontinued.

Then, of course, there was the incident two Lents ago, at my own Church, when a priest at my parish actually obeyed Canon 915 and was promptly thrown under the bus for it.  Remember Father Marcel Guarnizo?  The incident made international news.  Not one peep was mentioned in the Standard, nor was it mentioned in Our Parish Times, published by the Catholic Businessmen's Network.  That is nothing short of dishonesty by omission, and a complete disregard for standards of journalism.

So if the "lamestream media" (to coin Palin's term) won't do their job, it's up to us -the laity to do it for them.  Hence the existence of this blog and many others (some on the right tool bar).  That is one of the points made in yesterday's Vortex.  We need to be talking about these matters.  We need to shine the light on cockroaches and to do so relentlessly.  We are the Church Militant, not the Church Mellow nor the Church Milquetoast nor the Church Meelymouth.

Ora et labora!

Apostate Bishops And Amnesty For Illegal Immigrants

When waffling/politician bishops stick their noses into issues such as immigration, gun-control, minimum wage, etc they often find themselves in squalid associations with pro-abortion politicians.  Perhaps "find themselves in" is not an accurate phrase.  The phrase "actively seek out" probably describes their mindsets much more accurately - particularly if they hanker after the perks that come with rubbing elbows with the worldly rich and powerful who flout God's laws.

Such was the case last Friday with Cardinal Dolan, as he teamed up with rabidly pro-abortion and pro-sodomite Chuck Schumer to shill for amnesty for illegal immigrants.  Ignore the obviously left-wing bias of the Irish Central as you read the account of their joint photo-op at the Statue of Liberty.  Notice one key concept in one statement of Cardinal Dolan's; it's a concept that seems to have gone over his head.  Here's the statement.  "I would not be here if my great-grandfather Patrick Dolan was turned away in 1852.
I'm a pastor and every great religion welcomes the immigrant. It is fundamental and moral.."

Like Cardinal Dolan, I am primarily of Irish descent.  I would imagine his great-grandfather arrived here by way of Ellis Island, as did most of my ancestors.  My ancestors arrived at Ellis Island, respecting the laws of their new host nation and quite prepared to comply with immigration policies at that time; I presume that was the case with the Cardinal's great-grandfather.  They did not come skulking across the border for they knew such actions were inherently criminal and immoral.

To the right I have posted a very helpful chart to explain to Dolan and his progressive donors friends just exactly why we oppose amnesty for those here illegally.  I don't think they care; in fact, they do their utmost to obfuscate the issues to make people of common sense out to be hateful xenophobes (as exemplified in the Irish Central article).  More and more people are waking up; see this account of citizens of a southern California town who didn't want their hometown used as a haven for busloads of these people.

There's no doubt in my mind that these progressives simply see illegal aliens as those who will be dependent on them for everything - and who will vote them into power.  Nancy Pelosi has been shilling for amnesty for some time now, although not as fervently as she shilled for Obamacare and unrestrained baby-murder.  Recently Sarah Palin demonstrated her ability to pin Pelosi down, stating that Pelosi is more interested in illegal aliens than in unborn children.

I wonder if the latter statement can be said of Cardinal Dolan and so many of the progressive "social justice" USCCB-types within the Catholic hierarchy?  Given the amount of effort spent on each issue, I'd have to opine "YES".

MSNBC Does Saturday Night Live

However, they really do believe that the pig-slop they produced is truly cutting-edge journalism.  Normal people would think this is the stuff of satire sites.  The comedienne news-anchor is Joy Reid.  As you watch this piece of crap news presentation, I advise you not to be eating or drinking; else you may spit all over your monitor as you laugh.  Pity the people who will take this seriously.

Porn Publisher Snarls Against Baby Trig Palin

From Jill Stanek's blog, we read how Hustler publisher Larry Flynt calls Trig Palin "it" because the little guy has Down Syndrome.  Let's face it; anyone who makes his fortune from objectifying women (portraying them as things to satisfy unruly drives) has a warped idea of personhood anyway.  So when he claims that Sarah Palin "did a disservice to every woman in America", one could wonder from what planet he hails, as the trash he calls his magazine reduces women to the status of meat in the eyes of much of this culture of death.

At least he's honest about his disdain for human life, if he is totally lacking in class and decency.  The so-called "progressives" amongst us (most notably the "pro-choice" crowd) are just as misogynistic and hateful of disabled people as is Flynt; they're just a bit more artful in disguising their murderous disdain.

Remember James Lee? Whose "Rhetoric" Is Causing Violent Outbursts?

Ample evidience abounds that Jared Loughner was not motivated in the least by conservative thought.  He had drug problems and several run-ins with law officials.  His Youtube channel states that his favorite books include Hitler's Mein Kampf and the Communist Manifesto.  That same channel show a video of him burning the US flag.

Now let's recall another insane man who undoubtedly was listening to left-wing rhetoric.  I call to your memories one James Lee.  Last September, he held a number of people hostage in the Discovery Channel Building in Silver Spring MD.  He had bombs and threatened to use them.  While only he was killed in the stand-off, he did manage to shut down Silver Spring for a good part of the day.  I posted about that when it happened.  Here it is.  Read the links to see how he was heavily influenced by radical environmentalisn.  Many other proponents of radical environmentalism are unabashedly contemptuous of human life.  Want proof?  Go here and here, making sure you follow the links in those articles.

Now here's another link revealing that Lee was pro-abortion.  When you read that piece, follow the link to Jill Stanek's blog, where you can see and hear Lee arguing with pro-life demonstrators and espousing his strange world views.

So according to evidence that Lee himself willingly supplied, he was a pro-abortion radical environmentalist.  Now perhaps my memory is failing me, but I sure don't recall hearing any liberal pundits calling for pro-abortion and/or environmentalists to tone down their "inflamatory" talk after Lee was killed.  After all, Lee himself made no secret of his proclivities, did he?

Now of course I don't think environmentalists and pro-abortion folks are to blame for the Discovery Channel stand-off.  The one guilty party has met his eternal fate.   However, liberal/progressive pundits are doing their utmost to stretch all kinds of logic to ascribe some sort of blame for Gifford's shooting to Sarah Palin, Glenn Beck, Rush Limbaugh, talk radio, Tea Party, any of the voices of conservatism.  Read this Newsbusters account of one debate.  Newsbusters does a good job of exposing the double-standard.

Dear liberal pundits: nice try, but no cigar.  We're here and we will exercise our First Amendment rights.  You may not think it's "civil", since "civility" to you seems to mean that all must fall lock-step with your progressive programs, or else!  (Recall the video in one of this post's earlier links)
