Historic Beginnings of American Culture War – Philadelphia – 1970s


-
I had a nightmare last night.  I dreamt that State Senator Martin P. Mullen had come back from hell to inflict more inhumane legislation on not only the people of Pennsylvania but the whole planet. 


I don’t know how the culture war in America took shape in various other parts of the country, but like New Hampshire where the shot heard round the world that supposedly started our American Revolution, the culture war in America has no better historic model than Philadelphia and Pennsylvania in the 1970s.


I drift back forty years to the point where I, as an eighteen year old, decided that I did not want to hear anymore boiler plate sermons about Satan from the local priest in Philadelphia and I never set foot in that church again. 


All around me was a world where the War in Vietnam was wrapped in a flag.  That fucking war was so important to all the middle aged losers who hated their lives and had served so faithfully and or really had no choice but serve in World War Two.  


The basic cultural war in the minds of Philadelphians then, if you were young, was if your draft number would come up and you would have to serve, fight in a war that made absolutely no logical sense.  


On another level, there was the creeping fear that blacks would try to cross the invisible border, south on Lehigh Avenue, and try to invade your beautiful turn of the century row house paradise, built for factory workers.  


Oh there were factories in the neighborhood, and they employed blacks, but in retrospect I can remember all the blacks lined up at the 5 bus stop after work waiting to get back to wherever it was that they lived outside our perfect white lower middle class bubble existence.  In retrospect, the image of Apartheid comes to mind and is superimposed on those distant scenes. 


I have seen or heard comments from people who lived there at the same time.  The thing that destroyed Philly, they usually say, was “Section 8” housing, which is of course code talk for racism and welfare. 


In a way, the inability of people to recognize and love your neighbor is what destroyed that old Currier & Ives idealized brain image of the slums where I grew up in Kensington - Harrowgate in Philly. 


Where was I? Oh yes, the war, the blacks and yeah Vatican II.  Well Vatican II did not change anything in a neighborhood of mixed Irish and I-talian catholics.  Oh there were protestants out there.  We saw their churches dotting the landscape.  Never saw who entered those houses of worship on Sundays.  Didn’t care.  The predominant local culture was of Irish Catholic factory workers and Irish Catholic churches and schools. 



In a way, my parents were intelligent, and liberal.  They got into the ideal that blacks should have equal rights.  But somewhere along the timeline, people like my parents got scared about what they saw on the tube with black militant groups, war protestors and the rapid decline of a normal society into chaos around 1968.  They never told me directly but my so called liberal parents voted for George Wallace in 1968,  I figured that out later along the timeline. 


I guess I stayed there, going along my own liberal timeline, and did not realize how secular I was and in relation to terms of also being a Catholic from birth.  Did not feel the difference until they shot Martin Luther King. 


I can remember to this day, the priest Father Locke, freshly minted from the seminary, stumbling for words, almost apologetically, from the pulpit that next Sunday, stating something to the effect that he did not know if it would be proper but would not forbid personal prayers for a Protestant (after all, only Catholics go to heaven- your prayers are probably wasted on him), for the slain civil rights leader.  Huh?


It was there that I got the clue that maybe Catholics were not really Christians like people like MLK who called themselves Christian.  Christian was not a word I heard often in the first eighteen years of a Catholic life.  I heard the word but in conjunction with other words like Christian Doctrine etc.
 


(An aside - Reminds me of my own Irish Catholic joke I told to a former boss in the 1980s, also Irish Catholic – “I was twenty-one before I realized that Protestant and bastard were two separate words.” – My boss howled in laughter.) 


Oh yeah, getting back to Vatican II, I wrote some thoughts on that in my earliest blogs here, but let me get to the point and back to my nightmare about the late great Martin Mullen of the Pennsylvania State Legislature. 


Pennsylvania on a map may look like an east coast type of place.  But like the famous political advisor said and is quoted.  “Pennsylvania isPhiladelphia and Pittsburgh with Alabama in between.”  I have already shared a few thoughts above on my cosmopolitan cultural upbringing in Philly. There was that other thing, the sex thing and the RC church confusion about birth control. 


Paul VI brought out his Zero Tolerance document on birth control.  Like all life in general, most of us just stumbled into ways of dealing with our own individual sexuality.  (No user manual necessary.)


The cultural war in Philly and Pennsy had a pie-eyed, drunk on his own arrogance and self importance, fanatic in the form of Martin Mullen who suddenly was on the black and white TV screen, the chosen mouthpiece of John Cardinal Krol and his decision to bring Pennsylvaniaunder the recent Catholic Sharia Law (Humanae Vitae) on human sexuality. 


PENNSYLVANIA: Bitter Abortion Battle
Mullen, backed by equally conservative John Cardinal Krol and his Pennsylvania Catholic Conference, decided that the state, with its 35% Catholic population, was natural terrain to make a stand against the trend to more liberal laws on public morality. The battle was joined over the issue of abortion. To counter a liberal abortion bill, the conservatives proposed a bill of their own that outlawed abortion altogether except when a panel of three physicians certified that the mother's life was endangered. It made no allowance for victims of rape, incest or mental illness. Supporting the conservative bill, the Catholic Conference ran a long and costly campaign that included weekly pictures of truncated fetuses and aborted embryos on Page One of the Cathotic Standard &Times, the official organ of the archdiocese of Philadelphia. Last June the campaign paid off: the liberal bill was easily defeated, and the conservative bill was adopted by both houses and sent to Shapp for his signature. Mullen warned the Governor that if he attempted to stop the bill through veto or pocket veto he would run against him in the Democratic primary next year.  
While Shapp mulled over what to do, the protest and counterprotest boiled on. In an unusual turn, Patricia Arney, 32, a divorcee who is a district Democratic committeewoman, revealed to the Philadelphia Inquirer that State Senator Henry J. Cianfrani, 49, one of the conservative bill's strongest supporters, had paid for her abortion in 1970 while they were having an affair, and produced a receipt for his check to prove it. He did not deny their relationship, but said that he had given her the money to visit her family inToledo and did not know that there had been an abortion. Though the disclosure caused yowls of protest on the floor of the state senate, letters to the Inquirer ran 10 to 1 in favor of Arney's blow against hypocrites.  
Last week Shapp, calling the bill "unsound, unenforceable and totally unfair," vetoed it. Mullen failed to muster the three-fourths majority necessary to override the veto, leaving the state functionally without an abortion law of any kind, since lower courts have declared the present statute unconstitutionally vague and appeals are pending. With that, Mullen sounded the charge for his race against Shapp next spring, which could be among the bitterest elections in Pennsylvania's history: he called the Governor's veto the result of a "paganistic, atheistic philosophy."
In reality, few states had laws to deal with archaic or non-existent laws to deal with modern technology and recent developments in birth control.

Somewhere along the timeline, the culture war on birth control became the culture war on abortion.  The discussion regarding sexuality was not about choice in the form of birth control methods to prevent pregnancy, it became all about abortion and the strategy and the rhetoric of Krol’s hand puppet to the media in the 1970s has not changed much to this day IMHO.

My leaving my local church, not the People of God, when I was eighteen was also in reaction to archconservative mean spirited types shouting at you on the TV like Martin Mullen as Krol’s in front of the curtain media voice .  It was also the loss of the sermons on Satan, a chance to nod off, that got dropped on Sundays and propaganda spiels from the pulpit that you had to pick up the mimeographed letter to your state legislature in the church lobby, copy it in your own handwriting, and mail it to show that you were in favor of the most current Martin Mullen anti-sexuality law pending in Harrisburg.  Model – Modus Operandi – set for the American future landscape.  Pity.

I have read many a Catholic blog lately and the ones that aren’t praising, drooling on,  the guys in red are the ones that wonder why priests these days don’t bother to deliver a decent homily.  Considering what I know, the truth is that the thought police might hear something like love or tolerance being advocated and send off a letter to the bishop to complain about dogmatic incorrectness that would get back to the priest and rather than get slapped down, why bother to preach anymore. 

After all, isn’t it all just about the ritual and the consecrated bread? (And the collection plate?)

The American culture wars are far from over.  The best, I fear, is yet to come.

God Bless Texas For Sending Abortion Industry Business to New Mexico




The small dick party of Dick Perry and Donald Trump has sent some of its Abortion business next door to New Mexico.

Capitalism has a way of evening out the unfairness of anti-female male feel good jerk off Christian dogma in a dickhole state like Texas.

Want to send money out of state Texas?  Abortion Tech is the start of the male brain drain on the lone star small dick minded state I predict.


Of New Mexico’s five abortion clinics, only Albuquerque’s Southwest Women’s Options offers abortions up to 28 weeks and on a case-by-case basis after that if fetal anomalies are discovered or a mother’s health is in jeopardy, according to its website.

A Texas-based abortion clinic opened in Las Cruces in 2014 after Texas lawmakers enacted a law that has resulted in the closure of at least half of the state’s 41 abortion clinics.


That law, which requires that abortion clinics meet higher surgical center standards and requires providers to be affiliated with nearby hospitals, is on appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court.

Satanist Religion Fights For Women’s Right To Best Possible Heathcare Based on Religious Beliefs of Its Members Based on Science and Not Superstition




What’s good for the Red State Hillbilly superstitious laws regarding Women’s Health Care is good also to all others regarding the best possible scientific options as opposed to the superstitious “Christian” options of these third word states.


In a statement, the Satanic Temple said that it will use the Supreme Court’s recent Hobby Lobby decision to exempt its believers from state-mandated informed consent laws that require women considering abortions to read pro-life material.

Informed consent or “right to know” laws state that women seeking elective abortions be provided with information about alternatives to the procedure, often couched in language that attempts to personify the fetus. According to the Guttmacher Institute, 35 states currently have informed consent laws, and of those, 33 require that the woman be told the gestational age of the fetus.

In some states, that information consists of pro-life propaganda that links abortion to a higher incidence of breast and ovarian cancers, or discusses “post-abortion syndrome,” a mental condition not recognized by any major medical or psychiatric organization.


Because the Satanic Temple bases its belief “regarding personal health…on the best scientific understanding of the world, regardless of the religious or political beliefs of others,” it claims that state-mandated information with no basis in scientific fact violates its “religious” beliefs.

Corporate/Personhood = Whore of Babylon - to Damn all Mankind - Hobby Lobby Green Family Cult


Whore of Babylon by Dave Lebow


They are a religious cult.

They are an unbaptized corporation/person claiming exemptions that apply to other people who willingly contribute to the common good of the community and the republic. These democratic deadbeats don’t like this country anymore?

If they that have cash and claim to be religious, why not sell guns at Hobby Lobby and of course not do Federal Background Checks because that would be a violation of their religious cult beliefs.

If they start shooting and killing shoplifters in their stores, the killings will of course be justified to protect religious property and on sacred ground not subject to secular laws and justice?

The more the Religious Right gets money, gets money, gets money and power, power, power, the more they become like the Religious Whore of Babylon described in their man made/written bible and or like the Medieval Roman Church.

What’s in it for me to tolerate these assholes – corporation/people – Cult Leaders - Jim Jones - David Green etc. - pagans – demons - morons from Oklahoma and other red states?


They are living on our tax dime! Who died and made them god?

Hobby Lobby Retirement Plan Invests Heavily in Abortion Pharmas and Other Craft Items


Now Available in the Christmas Crafts Aisle?



Again, it is no sin for the Chinese to do the Abortion thing or even the Africans.

It is a sin however according to Dave Green’s Designer God for White Oklahomans to be Aborted?

Racism is only Skin Deep as practiced by the Hobby Lobby Green Family Religious Cult.

A-Men?




Documents filed with the Department of Labor and dated December 2012—three months after the company's owners filed their lawsuit—show that the Hobby Lobby 401(k) employee retirement plan held more than $73 million in mutual funds with investments in companies that produce emergency contraceptive pills, intrauterine devices, and drugs commonly used in abortions. Hobby Lobby makes large matching contributions to this company-sponsored 401(k).

Several of the mutual funds in Hobby Lobby's retirement plan have holdings in companies that manufacture the specific drugs and devices that the Green family, which owns Hobby Lobby, is fighting to keep out of Hobby Lobby's health care policies: the emergency contraceptive pills Plan B and Ella, and copper and hormonal intrauterine devices.


These companies include Teva Pharmaceutical Industries, which makes Plan B and ParaGard, a copper IUD, and Actavis, which makes a generic version of Plan B and distributes Ella. Other holdings in the mutual funds selected by Hobby Lobby include Pfizer, the maker of Cytotec and Prostin E2, which are used to induce abortions; Bayer, which manufactures the hormonal IUDs Skyla and Mirena; AstraZeneca, which has an Indian subsidiary that manufactures Prostodin, Cerviprime, and Partocin, three drugs commonly used in abortions; and Forest Laboratories, which makes Cervidil, a drug used to induce abortions. Several funds in the Hobby Lobby retirement plan also invested in Aetna and Humana, two health insurance companies that cover surgical abortions, abortion drugs, and emergency contraception in many of the health care policies they sell.

Clergy Child Abuse Still Under The Radar With Pope Francis Who Throws A Bone To American Bishops and Their Obsession with Abortion and Not the Welfare of Children once Born except in Rhetoric




Clergy abuse of children is still under the radar regarding Francis's thoughts and words on a throwaway culture which has its merits as a concept. 

Makes a great sound bite for the media.

But once born and not aborted, children in this world like in the church are on their own to fend for themselves against the wolves of this world.
 
Words do not change anything Francis.


 Pope Francis on Monday called abortion "horrific" and said it was part of a new "throwaway culture" he said wasted human life as easily as it wasted food — his strongest words yet on a practice that is a divisive political issue in the United States.
Until now, Francis has appeared to have stayed away from strong statements on the church's stands on moral behavior of individuals, preferring to focus on more positive messages about the teachings of Jesus Christ and the need to see to the poor.
His comments during the start of his papacy that the church need not "obsess" about abortion and gay marriage bothered conservative Catholics who see the issues as ones that the church ought to object to strongly. On Monday, Francis put his own stamp on the church's long-held opposition to abortion.

"It is frightful even to think that there are children, victims of abortion, who will never see the light of day," Francis said in what has become a traditional annual address to the Vatican diplomatic corps.

Catholic Neo-Confederate Cultural Warrior Paul Ryan Still Attacking Humanity For The Political Right


Paul Ryan - Catholic Neo-Confederate (Tea Party)


Now it has come to light that Doerflinger - obviously with Cardinal Dolan's approval - colluded with Tea Party darling, Representative Paul Ryan (R-WI) to continue the recent  shut-down of the federal government. Doerflinger's goal was to hold up the continuing resolution (CR) legislation until the birth control benefit in the Affordable Health Care Act (ACA) was removed. 
 …This is the kind of thing we have come to expect during Dolan's tenure as president. And its not just Doerflinger. Dolan's all out culture warring was on full display this past April, for example, when the cardinal hired Kim Daniels to be his personal spokeswoman on USCCB matters. As Commonweal Magazine's Grant Gallicho pointed out, "Daniels served as Sarah Palin's "personal domestic-policy czar" in 2009 (as part of SarahPAC)." 
 …But these Catholic neo-confederates are not far from the destabilizing views of Dolan, Doerflinger and their allies -- who are willing to disrupt our ability to govern ourselves in order to establish the orthodox Catholic position on issues such as birth control as the de facto law of the land. Such strategy will endanger both the country as well as the Church.

Tea Party Witchdoctor David Barton Anointed as Next Texas Senator by Religious Right? – Abortion Causes Global Warming – Petty Mobster “God’s Curse”







But apparently, he WASN'T "conservative" enough for many Republicans in Texas. Over the past few weeks, Tea Party activists floated the idea of replacing Cornyn with David Barton, the evangelical activist who has done more than anyone else to advance the "Christian Nation" myth. Although Barton withdrew his name from consideration Wednesday, Glen Beck (among others) is still holding out hope that a "true conservative" might step in to take down the perfidious Cornyn. 

 The fact that this kind of discussion is even taking place helps put to rest two very common misperceptions about the right wing of the Republican party. The first is that the Tea Party is primarily about fiscal and economic issues. It is not; it is also about religion. 

 The second misperception that Barton's abortive candidacy exposed is that the Tea Party is a conservative and patriotic force in American politics. In fact, it is a radical movement that seeks to destroy our present system of government. There is nothing comparable to it on the left or the right in American politics.

Pastor Rafael Cruz – Hatred of Women / Fear of VAGINA – Misogyny – Like Father Ralph; Like Son Ted Cruz?




The latest rant from Ted Cruz’s father if he is Ted Cruz’s father would appear to be an attack on liberals for using politically correct words or phrases to confuse the mail order preacher certificate pastor dad.

That when liberals use pro-choice – it is wrong – the opposite of pro-life should be pro-murder??? Or so the undocumented alien from Cuba says to his Negro Hating, Vagina Hating, Gay Hating audiences mostly in redneck red states.

Abortion is Religious Right Right Code for the feared word and world of VAGINA.  A fear and or hatred of women and or their body parts as legislated and probed of late by state level TEA PARTY Probers. 

Considering that his first wife, now deceased, was a professor of linguistics, he obviously never learned anything about the use and flow of language when she probably wrote his college papers for him, when he lived with her. His first daughter too is passed away.

When one sees the Rafael Cruz (Dysfunctional) Family on stage, you only usually see Ted.

No Women. No surviving Daughter. No Step Daughters. No ex-wife - No Ted’s Mom.  

RELIGIOUS SAUSAGE FEST and the travelling Cruz gypsy grifter side show collecting all those tens of millions for political graft PAC money laundering.


Religion. Homophobia. Misogyny. Coded Hate. Fear of Life. Fear of Woman. Fear of Sound Government. Rafael Cruz. Ted Cruz. 

Yuck!

Doctor Riley Writes Her Second Essay – Is Fined Again for Whatever? – Licensing of Bricklayers, Doctors and Other Professionals in Utah




I have to apologize a bit here. I have, since the inconvenience of the recent government shutdown on a federal level, been researching many things related to the anger in the Republic against big government and the reality of the “less government” crowd who really mean less government for you but "more government" and contracts for us (and cronies) kind of scenario.


I see from public documents that Doctor Riley is finished with Maryland so to speak and that now Utah wants a second grade-school essay from Doctor Riley. Nicola Riley is no saint. Just read the SL Tribune or Deseret news to get that certain PC POV toward her. Public Square in Utah is many times Temple Square btw. 

Whatever.

Right Wing Archbishop Chaput Continues His Hatchet Job Gutting Assets of Philly Archdiocese to pay for fiscal Mismanagement of the last 40 years of his Predecessors Spending Tens of Millions on Culture War Politics


"Right Wing" Archbishop of Philadelphia Charles Chaput

"Our difficult financial situation must be addressed and the actions that we need to take may  be painful ones," Archbishop Charles J. Chaput said in a news release.

“Our”? “We”? Spokesman for the Right Wing of the American RC church has some financials to deal with after spouting out too much anger against Pope Francis in Rio de Janeiro that gets accurately reported in the American Catholic press. He did the same thing in Spain back in 2011

(Off on my prediction by six months I think about Chaput becoming the great embarrassment of the American RC church, per above link.)

Charles gets a little heady being in Catholic Fascist countries like Spain or projecting oneself into Brazil where nine year old girls can get raped by their fathers and then be refused an abortion and at the same time also blamed for forcing dad to rape her. 

Leasing Cemeteries and getting rid of the Nursing Homes originally built to house the aging parents of nuns and clergy, no need to worry about that now for all those imported priests from Africa and Asia.

Archbishop Charles Chaput has signed off on expert advice of the accounting firm KGMP to cook the books and sell and lease off assets to pay for all the lawyers bills in the ongoing Child Abuse secret Sub-Business (sub-culture) of the Philly Archdiocese (wink,nod).

How do you lease a cemetery? And who gets use of the Cemetery Perpetual Care Fund? That’s a question for experts on cemeteries like Cardinal Dolan in New York I would think.  

Then you fire the 180 people working in the Catholic cemeteries there now and then maybe the leasing company will offer to hire some of them back for half the wages and no healthcare benefits or pension plan?  

No wonder Chaput hates Pope Francis and his public statements so far about humanity and in contrast to the past thirty years of right wing bishops being installed by the bankers at the Vatican. Whatever.


In an aggressive move to help remedy its deep financial woes, the Archdiocese of Philadelphia said Tuesday that it had put its six nursing homes up for sale. 
 The archdiocese also said it would attempt to lease out 11 cemeteries and two parcels that could be used as cemeteries. 
 In addition, the archdiocese said it would try to outsource the management of the cemeteries, a move that could cut costs and increase revenue. 
 "Our difficult financial situation must be addressed and the actions that we need to take may be painful ones," Archbishop Charles J. Chaput said in a news release. 
 "I understand this fact fully, but it is of critical importance that we rebuild our financial foundation so that we can continue our collective good works." 
 The archdiocese last month reported a $39.2 million loss for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012. Excluding millions in unusual expenses, the archdiocese's cash outlays in fiscal 2012 still exceeded revenue by $17.4 million.
 In addition to annual operating shortfalls, the archdiocese has huge long-term gaps in its balance sheet, totaling about $350 million, for pensions, self-insurance reserves, and money owed to a trust-and-loan fund for parishes.


Why not lease out the cathedral to Burlington Coat Factory while you are at it?

Doing a great job “Hatchet Charlie”.  The Red Hat is in the pipeline but only I think after Pope Francis catches John Paul the First Disease? (wink, nod) lol

Trent Franks Masturbating Baby (Fetus) Rights Bill Passes in Congress


Burgess and Franks Baby (Fetus) Masturbation Bill Passes House




As the moron from Texas Rep. Mike Burgess asserts, a male baby (fetus) starts to jerk off at fifteen weeks. 

[Female baby (fetus) does not masturbate???=Wow]

So if they can feel pleasure, they will certainly feel the pain of an Abortion performed by a Black Philly Abortion Doctor (wink,nod) etc. 

That be scientific folks!

No Vision – Just Ambition – In America Today







I started writing this less than a week ago and I thought Oh No, another sour grapes thing about the RCC in the seventies in Philly that drove the masses out of the churches and schools in time or at least in the inner city as they are now calling my old neighborhood.

As some friend has described to me, with planned or likely closings of RC churches here, there actually, there will be no RC churches in the Frankford and Harrowgate sections of the city soon. 

My own grade school closed in 2003. And the economics of it all is not necessarily racist. The state and city screw things up with popular school vouchers legislation or threat of its passage which from a distance I do not know much about.  

I do know that as soon as you add money to a system with school vouchers or even employer covered health or dental care, you directly or indirectly inflate the basic cost of doing business. That is economics and some politics.

That education in America is big business with student loans, seven hundred dollar college text books etc. That is economics and politics.

The real crux of the matter was that jobs first went south and then overseas and emptied the local factories of very marginal jobs of the average factory workers when those jobs went south. That is economics.

Without a job - you and your environment become dysfunctional. Not rocket science to understand. 

The above bill board in the shabby shopping district of downtown Philly at Third Street and Market Street was where us factory workers went to find bargains that the department stores  further up the street could not offer us. We paid cash. We had no credit.

The money for that billboard came out of the archdiocese’s coffers or some non-profit organization or the obsessive compulsive wallets of Koch Brothers or Mellon Scaife types doing their social experimentation on the masses.

Like I said I started to write this a few days ago, stopped and erased it. I was inspired at first by the historic photo archives picture because of the date and the subject matter – abortion.

1971 was about the time I stopped going to church.  I was tired of the Sunday pulpit demands to write my state legislature to demand that Catholic Sharia Law on Contraception become the law in Pennsylvania.

Science had made a paradigm shift thing and the new chemistry of birth control just overwhelmed the boys in the RC clergy. They have never caught up.

It is a funny thought and I have mentioned it one way or another in the five years since I started this blog, the church left me, us behind when it abandoned spirituality and went straight for the economic and political approach to human sexuality.  

That if an ambitious Cardinal Krol was not hell bent on becoming pope, and attended his flock with some love instead of a Wharton Spreadsheet; maybe the economics and politics of the inner city and the racial divides could have been addressed.  

That some jobs in factories could have been saved, that there would have been less racial fear and less white flight to the suburbs and places like Frankford or Harrowgate would still have catholic grade schools, high schools and even churches there today.

In other words, there was no vision.  There seemed to be only ambition to achieve some corporate religious agenda.

There was no Vision.  There was only Ambition.

And that stagnation, which ignores the heart or the spirit of things and life situations that matter to us locally, could have been addressed by mature efforts and solutions. 

So it goes.

DeSales University Hosts Bill Donohue’s Standard Boilerplate Catholic Fascist Speech to Rounds of Applause from a Grateful Rich White Catholic Audience

DeSales Universtiy - Home of the (???) Bulldogs


Life time employment for oligarchic Plutocratic tools like Bill Donohue and Wayne LaPierre as spokespeople for the Catholic Fascist Movement in America to take over the government and reduce all minorities and non-Catholics to slavery.

Talking to a audience of well healed Catholic White People at DeSales University just outside Allentown Pa, Donohue pandered his standard fare of coded hate to the African American President Obama to tremendous applause.

It should be remembered that the people who can afford tuition to private elite Catholic colleges are the people zygoted, bred, wed and dead in the affluent burbs and seek that their’s is the only point of view possible in the best of all possible pampered trust funded worlds.

Apparently the Secularists have a secularist university and or academy or old Bill is in his usual blacked out state on his way from Rosey O’Grady’s Saloon in midtown Manhattan. The reference to “Academy” below is I think purely Donohue-style Delusional.

"It's undeniably true that the administration as a whole is not Catholic-friendly," Donahue said. "They are die-hard secularists. I think [Obama] is a secularist like so many people where he came from, the academy."

Of course there were rounds of applause in the sea of white faces regarding women not having the right to an abortion, a medical procedure, in places like Mississippi and North Dakota etc.

"I think we're winning on abortion but the [same-sex] marriage issue is much more difficult,"

The American Catholic Church has already missed the boat completely on the equal marriage civil rights thing. 

But then equal marriage rights will be a direct challenge to the need for celibacy in the their Catholic clergy ranks which have for centuries been the place to put your odd son in the family in a safe lifetime meal ticket job, just like Bill's job. If your odd son or daughter (gay) can marry and make a life for himself or herself outside of the Church, who needs the church in this new modern day sexual equation. Two's company, three is a crowd.

But I think the real heart of the American Catholic coded mission statement and its commitment to the political right is to the abolition of the U.S. Constitution and comes in Bill Donohue’s remark:

"I don't want to dialogue. I want to win."

Compromise never on the road to the brave new Catholic America. (the road to hell?)

Sam Brownback, A Pagan High Priest of the GOP, risen in the Heartland to Define but Not Able to Create true life – a General All Around Catholic Dick in Kansas



GOP - The New Pagan Religion Party (Cult) of White Dicks Only Membership?


George Tiller died a martyr of sorts in 2009 doing his job as a Doctor that performed a necessary female medical procedure for those women.  

Kansas has since been caught up in a wave of the New Pagan Religionists of the GOP clinging to some long gone, obsolete No Rights to Anybody except the possessors of White Penises. (We are still talking human species here?) 

Bloody Kansas has a history of killing those who disagree with you going back to before the Civil War.


People like Sam Brownback got little attention in Washington DC. A small fish in a big political pond.  He is making good on becoming a big fish in little Kansas and looking presidential.

Similar to the way the Emperor / god Constantine hijacked Christianity, the Governor / god Brownback of Kansas wishes to hijack, That Which is God’s by way of Caesar.

Jesus clearly defined church and state in his God / Caesar statement. Now that the GOP is a quasi-pagan religion that roots itself without permission in the vagina of women, so too I question why “men” like Governor Sam Brownback, obviously are trying to add a metaphoric inch or two to the size of their erect penis to proclaim “when life begins”.


Life may be begin at “fertilization” or “conception”, strange adding a phrase like that to the latest abortion bill out of historic Bloody Kansas. 

Calling it “philosophical” leans more to religion than science and more pagan as well considering the strictest definition of pagan as obscure and rural and you cannot get much more obscure or rural in fly over country than Kansas.

It is really fucked up in the heartland, fly over country. 

Sam Brownback is not a proper Pagan God, Tin god in fact. Is not Opus Dei, or so he claims, though his conversion to Pagan Roman Catholicism was in conjunction with members of that famous RC cult.

One important thing to Opus Dei inspired Pagan tin gods like Sam Brownback - Defining life is not creating life. And over and above that when does a soul appear on the scene in that matter.

I was taught in the glory days of post Vatican Two Roman Catholicism that the first man and woman, Adam and Eve, were the first man and woman that God, the Diety, bothered to bestow soul on.

Nothing else in the Bible I think even mentions the exact time and definition of soul and never will. 

So in theory if I went back in time and I killed either Adam or Eve before they had their God given souls – would I have been technically guilty of killing an animal or a human being?

This new Pagan God or High Priest of the Pagan GOP religion thing is defining the beginning of life and may have impressive sounding ingredients read off a bottle of snake oil but he, Brownback and his Tea Bag Party Legislature, sure as hell does not have the makings of a genuione real snake oil bottle filled with the true magic elixir by which to bestow soul and or humanity.

You can take a dick like Sam Brownback out of Washington DC but you cannot make him human or stop him from being the really same small dick he has always been, city or rural.

Arizona Anti-Transgender Kavanagh Potty Bill Amended to Protect Country Clubs, Restaurants in Discrimination against Transgenders





This Snowbird transplant, carpetbagger from New York Kavanagh where I wonder what his as a cop police rap sheet against minorities looks like, backed off on direct discrimination against Transgenders in public facilities. His legislation is now amended to protect private businesses like Country Clubs as in putting up No Coloreds ”No Transgenders” allowed signs on Business Properties, Clubs, Restuarants, Country Clubs etc.

Among other points in the proposed amendment, Kavanagh wants to make it so "no person or business shall be civilly or criminally liable for denying access to privacy areas based on gender identity or expression."

No doubt Rep. Kavanagh can hold his head up high at Sunday Mass at The Church of the Ascension in Fountain Hills sitting next to his buddy Sheriff Joe Arpaio

Strange thing about the Catholic footnote is that I found Rep. Kavanagh’s complete political bio on the Diocese of Wilmington Delaware’s webpage which provides access and e-mail templates to every state and national elected official in America.  

Every state agency, e-mail, telephone number etc. – everybody except governors where I still cannot find out the religion of Gov. Dalrymple of North Dakota and signer of his draconian Catholic? Abortion Bill etc.

Manchurian (?) Candidate / Governor Jack Dalrymple has no Religion and Signs Draconian Abortion Law in North Dakota


Anti-Feminist Governor Jack Dalrymple of North Dakota
And his breeding partner "Betsy"


It is amazing that a state that ranks 48 according to population, North Dakota has one seat in the House of Representatives, and two in the stagnant Senate, that a state like North Dakota can set an anti-female abortion ban law at as low as six weeks of pregnancy, that it has a Governor “Jack” Dalrymple who signs this law into state law and has no “religion” listed anywhere in the Internet.

It is not PC to question the religion of a politician. It is not a constitutional requirement. But Abortion usually is a sick religious political moral standard of the new Republican Christian Religion / Merger.

Dalrymple has four daughters, no doubt brought up on chastity belts and a loving look from mom Betsy who probably agrees to not have any opinion about her own body from master of the house Jack.

Jack’s only political connections, traceable before his recent election to Governor is as a contributor to the George W Bush Campaigns in 2000 and 2004 and Jack is and or was on the Board of Directors of the Right Wing U.S. Chamber of Commerce which funnels, launders foreign money into domestic American Political Contests from China and Saudi Arabia?  

A farmer who is a graduate of Yale and a member of Yale’s’, W’s Skull and Crossbones Society Network that worships Satan etc.?

All that aside, the morals / politics of Abortion but North Dakota in on the Canadian border. 

So if Governor Jack Darlrymple is a closet Muslim, not to say he is a closet Muslim terrorist, we all in the real U.S.A. would sure like to know.

Duh!
